SFxT General Discussion #4 - Witty title

Here I was thinking I built a strong team in Bryan/Heihachi, and it turns out they have the same area of weakness. Damn.

Can Heihachi walk people slowly into corners, the same way Gief is known for?

He can, but it depends on your opponent.

I wouldn’t say they have completely the same weaknesses because Heihachi actually has reversals unlike Bryan. They’re the same archetype but Heihachi is definitely the stronger on the defense.

Really what you want to be doing as Heihachi is tagging him in, abusing the oki the best you can and not letting go of the pressure. If they reset you to that neutral, start of the round situation that’s where you’re at a disadvantage.

Any character that can tag him in is going to do well for a partner. Yoshimitsu has pretty much made bringing in the damage his specialty.

Oh I’m used to that role in anchor thanks to playing King for so long, though I am pretty sure King has a stronger neutral game.

What is Heihachi’s best wakeup reversal?

Ex dragon uppercut

Dat manly damage!

Haha, the description: ā€œI finally made Hugo usefulā€¦ā€

Yeah, Jammerz’s Poison is legit. Play him all the time. But he learned everything he knows about Julia from me. :stuck_out_tongue:

Catch me in the IRC chat. If I’m in the IRC chat then I’m up for some PSN games (or PC if that’s the version you use). Currently going by the name of Linklonoa. :3

His EX shoryu is just that, an ex shoryu. EX dragon upper has full body invincibility. It’s not just a get out of jail free card though, if it’s blocked you’ll eat a huge punish like any shoryu wakeup.

His counter throw is a good option if they’re antsy, only the hk version has a start up the rest are 1f.

Hei’s wake up game is bad without meter. Just go for throws or bait a throw tech.

Well yeah, throwing any character with a counter throw is usually the way to go on their wakeup.

See Jin and mental alertness.

His options exist however, other than roll. It’s not the main reason you’d pick him over a top tier but it’s not a weakness of his either.

Heihachi’s only real weakness is long ranged normals combined with decent walk speed. He does most other things fine.

I’m definitely not good at this but… Deep breath THANCRUZ MODE

I wish I could just quote him, but that would overload the pictures even more. Don’t ask me why I picked Static shock lolol

…lmao! wow… if this ever caught on, I would just…wow…

SFxT is dead yo.

It’s like… barely fappable.

Marvel has based fundamentals.

Only bitch ass niggas play SFxT.

For real.

Hype.

I’m telling you, Thancruz mode is so broken…it’s un-nerfable at this point

Well Im just going to clear up a few of the misconceptions Ive seen

EX EWGF punishes people for attempting to Neutral jump if you have the reactions for it.
Best confirm off cr.mp is st.rh but you have you to be close to do that, from further away, st.lk xx lp wgf
Heihachi has a bunch of great wakeup options not just ex dp+k
While his walk is slow, he has a decent dash and his jump can be hard to deal with when used effectively, though trying to zone him is still a good option, just don’t assume its as Derp as zoning Asuka (Asuka wishes she had any of Hei’s footsie normals)
Heihachi Oki is as good if not better than Asuka’s

Bulbalink - I’ll do it until I don’t find it funny anymore but since that will be never, it will be forever.

Add some! http://www.memecreator.org/template/thancruz-mode

Too late now. This is goin’ Hollywood!

I’ll surely add a few. Gonna be fun!

Static shock sucks, no one wants to watch it anymore.

Show is dead.

I should flag this. Multiple times. Then mark it off-topic.

Actually where’s the ā€œthis mo-fo is crazyā€ button?

…I’ll give you the Shaq episode though. I hate guest ā€œstarā€ cameos in my cartoons. So glad that’s not a thing anymore. The only way I should know you’re in an episode is because you voiced a character, not because you WERE a character. :-\

…excuse me while I mark my post off-topic now.

…Don’t even joke like that when it comes to the DCAU.

Well, okay, the Zeta Project is fair game.
