SSF4 Guile Changes & Discoveries

It’s not you, I’ve always struggled vs Abels and I think it’s a 6.5/3.5 matchup. It’s extremely difficult. I think Abel is top tier now with Guile slightly below him.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Maybe SF4/SSF4 Guile is not your kind of character and you might have to invest time into someone else if the time invested in Guile isn’t paying off.
I used to play Blanka and Boxer in previous SF titles and once SF4 came out, I quickly noticed they weren’t what I should be spending time on.

Like I said before, maybe this particular version of Guile just isn’t your cup of tea.

I felt the same thing but I attributed it to my rustiness since I haven’t played for months. I’m sticking to the regular motion for now.

flash kick trade to sonic hurricane ALLL DAY!!! haah how u like me now ryu!!!

what jump in in particular trades with flash kick? ryu’s j.hp/hk or both?

i know the i’ve done trade to u2 on multiple characters i’ve trades ryu’s jhk not sure about punch

Both. There’s a sweet spot in terms of spacing and timing which allows trade with all of Ryu’s downward hitting normals on his jump-in.

Yeah, reverse TK motion is still fine, even for cancelling into Super. Just felt strange not having used the Family Man for a while.

Those inputs probably work but i cannot do it at the moment. How do u expect me to concentrate on the lp > mp and then mash on my controller to finish the combo. Im using an arcade stick and i have no idea how im supposed to do this. I try the input and the medium punch fails or i will get the medium punch and no sonic boom instead a flash kick will come out.

If i do it methodically the medium punch fails if i mash i sometimes get to the sonic boom but the ultra fails. Its fucking annoying. I hate the stupid ass medium punch link. WHy would it be so hard. why?

How is there not a documented way of making sure you complete that link? You mean to tell me its still random?

It’s not random; it’s a link. If you mean a hit-confirm, then it still isn’t really random if you’re able to do the link. Every character has stuff like this. Dudley’s major combo to ultra is a link off of c.lp…I don’t really know what you are asking.

Im asking what is the timing. Watching the flash on the health bar doesnt work anymore. How do you know when to press medium punch is there a visual cue. It seems impossible to do it on purpose.

Is it because im to fluid with my motion? Guile is actually focus canceling after the sonic boom and im only pressing one button at a time. Am i doing the inputs too “well”. Why would he focus cancel if im only pressing one button at a time? wtf is really up with this?

The timing for me feels like the c.mp comes later than in Vanilla. All it is is practice and re-wiring the clock. Go into training mode and do c.lp x 2, c.mp. If no c.mp comes out you did it too soon, if c.mp comes out and is blocked you did it too late. If it hits, then you are officially in business. Do it 1000 times a day and you will be hitting the link more.

I had trouble with this trial as well, I finally got it done last night. I found a video by gilley and I used his technique to execute the sonicboom>super. The reverse tiger knee motion was easier for me, maybe it will be easier for you.

I’ve discovered that in super, everyone thinks Guile is S+ tier and easy mode character at the same time. I got probably 50 Daigo references and how op Guile is now. Its either that or how Guile is the new Ken. I’ve had people go 4v1 (me) in team battles and talk smack the whole way through as I OCV them. I’m not even that good, but I guess every character would appear god like when people just continuously jump at you trying to land BnB combos.

What changes between sonic boom to double flash, to crouching medium punch xx sonic boom xx double flash? If you know how to do that, you know how to do the entire trial. I don’t see what you’re getting at, what’s illogical about it?

All you’re doing instead is cancelling a c.mp into a sonic boom into a super into an ultra. You’ve already admitted that the sonic boom to double flash is easy. You’re legitimately trying to say that you don’t know how to cancel a crouching medium punch into a sonic boom?

Hold down back, press medium punch, push stick forward, press any punch, from that forward position: move to down back, to up forward, and light kick. Now that the super came out, charge during the animation of it and ultra him as he’s falling. You have an obscenely long period of time to do this.

Practice.

There is no other answer.

Flashkick recvery definitely feels faster, punished a few people trying to counter me after i whiffed it, doesn’t feel like you’re naked anymore, and haven’t traded with a guy jumping in on me once.

cr lp feels the same unfortunately, cr mk is awesome compared to what it was before. Guile should give characters loads of problems with his booms now and that’s probably why they didn’t want sonic hurricane too easy to completely land
