sf2ce

I agree the slowness makes u play smarter safer also fireball characters ruled the game so people liked it for that hyper sightings better but sometimes I like to mix it up and play a game where this not over powered completly I believe ce would be better if bison was banned though like he was in some tournaments back in the day but then guile would rape

Hyper nerfed dhalsim to much for me sadly n vega bison if they were good I would enjoy it more

CE was fun, but I still prefer HF. Little more balanced, although Bison got the nerf bat pretty hard, but it’s still a pretty competitive game and I find it more “pure” I guess for lack of a better word than ST.

to be honest,i never understood this game A vs game B vs game C kind of mentality
like you have to only pick one for the rest of your life or something
i can play a bit of dash and have fun,then play IIX and finally go back to turbo without a problem
i like all 3 for different reasons

anyway,i would enjoy dash / ce in fightcade a little more if a different revision was used
see here


obviously the south american / turkish players are not going to vote and say
"yes,please,we want to use a different version where vega is slightly less broken" (among other things)
so there you go

because i tend to piano the specials,i find sagat’s uppercut inability to knock down to be the most annoying difference

edit : those guys didn’t even open the link (or can’t read) . maybe both things

Hyper fighting sagat didn’t get nerfed really havnt noticed any changes other than uppercut damage

The western versions have always been development versions sold as if they were the final build. CE and HF western versions are basically incomplete versions of the game. And S2 versions had a major glitch in Zangief’s kick 360. It’s really sad, but that’s how it was. And they were still the best arcade games, hands down.

As for bottom tier characters: Rog was bottom tier in the western versions, while Chun was bottom tier in the Japanese version of Dash/CE. Chun is bad due to having no invulnerable anti-airs and a pretty short range on her crouching kicks. Rog happens to be worse in the western versions because his TAPs never charge up.

??? Rog’s TAP works fine in US HF. Forgot if he even had TAP in CE.

It would be interesting to see a comprehensive difference list between US and Jap CE/HF. Especially considering HF was designed mostly by Capcom USA. Fun fact: HF doesn’t have a single new frame of animation over CE. Chun’s fireball is a blue yoga flame lol.

This WANa see a list didn’t know the versions had different hot boxes ect

This game must have changed a lot since I last played. I thought Dhalsim was the only person who could even fight Sagat. Do Guile and Dictator really take that match?

Watch high level ce matches on YouTube it’s all guile vs Bison sagat is 3rd guile beats sagat so does sim sagat Bison are even

So yeah after sagat it’s a toss up of Ryu sim and ken for 4th sims drills are really good at stuffing fireballs in vet hats why he beats shotos besides ken due to his dp

merging the CE threads

Korea and Brazil are the only country’s still taking the game serious but reading through the old ce thread I never came across a tier for the game modern date so guile bison sagat Ryu ken dhalsim claw chun Li blanka zangief boxer e Honda?

Well, that was easy with the thread merging:

Looks like CE is more balanced in the jap version (maybe there are later CE revisions for the US rom??). Still don’t know why anyone would want to play CE over HF, especially as far as balance is concerned.

korea_sf2ce has started streaming again.

These dudes still go hard at sf2ce. I tuned in the other day and the Battle Counter was at 99 on the one cab.

BTW, is there a legit sf2ce wiki?

Actually yeah, there is: http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Street_Fighter_2:_Champion_Edition

I recently found out that one of the bars in my city actually has a functioning SF2:CE-cabinet. Shame that it’s got the worst stick and the worst buttons I’ve ever touched, making the game borderline unplayable. =(

It’s a decent wiki for sure, but it lacks some of the more recent changes to the metagame and some char specific tricks.

I don’t think that match up list is accurate any more. The game has changed quite a lot (Chun x-up j.hp vortex lolz) since then.

It has Dictator beating Sim. But these days Sim is arguably tougher than Guile for Dic (people who think Guile vs Dic was tough in SSFIV should try it in CE). Not only can Sim zone him out, he wrecks him with Drill pressure after a knockdown. Only way Dic can win is if Sim guesses wrong on the Scissor Kick pressure, or he lands a TOD, but both scenarios require Sim to make a mistake (in general, this is how Dictator wins all his matches).

I wonder if the Chinese/Koreans have a wiki for matchups or char specific stuff. They have some really cheap tech that I wouldn’t have known about if it weren’t for this channel.

Hello, street fighters~.
Oct. 1~3, 2016… “The 1st world SF2CE Tounament” will be hold in
’TIAN TIAN WAN’ (game center), Shanghai, China.
Gamers joining from Korea(more than 10 gamers), China, Brazil and Chile.

Sure, they should live streaming most of games
through DouyuTv (one of Chinese internet streaming service).
You can easily watch on your smartphone,
just download the DouyuTv app.

Good to see that you didn’t forget about this thread. Do you know if there’s a place on the internet where Korean and Chinese players discuss SF2CE? I would like to make the information known to western players as well.

I’m glad to see that South Americans are also taking part in this new tournament. Please try to record all the matches in good quality.
