FYI:
Tweleve is an amazing 12 player… Just sayin.
Also - PS3 Wireless is good. I used it for a long time.
Sean actually has functional combos (not good combos), and decent supers. Twelve has none of these unless you go with XCOPY and even then you’re free to be punished by anything during activation and after.
Would anyone be willing to sign up for a launch tournament online?(I’ll be setting it up using the tournament mode)
So, uh…
Stungun Headbutt is troll, how about: Hyper Bomb vs Boomerang Raid.
Which do you guys feel is better? I don’t have an answer myself because I use both equally (in training mode, anything goes), but I can’t decide on which to actually go with.
sa2 by far. its not really a question. if you want to use sa1 youd better be very confident in your parrying. but if you are, you can fuck people up pretty bad. regardless though it’s very nice to have the ex for flash chop and slash elbow. play what you think is cool though but I suggest using sa2 until you’re QUITE good.
Some Alex’s like to run SA1 in certain matchups like against characters that already take a lot of damage without comboing into his EX moves like Ibuki. I’ve seen it used on Chun Li once in a blue moon also but not really sure what the strategy is with that since EX flash will always hit a crouching Chun Li any way.
SA2 is still clearly better because it gives you a 1 frame start up that you can stock more than one of that you can break out in clutch moments with good invincibility. Plus it hit confirms easily off close s.MK or c.LPx2. You also don’t have that problem of not having access to your super if you use an EX move.
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. I’m not confident in even my 360’s (I churn the butter too hard and miss a point or two), so I’ll be sticking with SAII for… well, forever.
sa2 for ex meter.
Think of it this way. Alex is a difficult character to play well. SA2 really gives him a leg up and allows him to ‘waste’ some meter on things like flash and elbow to keep the opponent defensive. With SA1 you’re handicapping your ability to do a number of things with the trade off being you can do pretty fucking crazy damage if you get a good parry in at the right time. SA1 doesn’t really encourage you to work on the basics as much as SA2 and when you’re inexperienced that’s what you need to focus on.
Hey guys For Hugo Which super art is better Gigas Breaker Or Hammer Frenzy?
sa2 is the only super you should be using with alex.
if youre a new player and playing a low tier character and losing a lot, its not because your character is low tier. its because youre a new player.
Depends on the situation and who you’re fighting.
Chun’s better with Gigas because if you block a SA2, you punish free
Akuma’s better with Gigas because parrying a poorly placed dive kick or flip will result in a gigas
Q, I think is better with Hammer, because of damage constraints, you’re not limited to one big meter.
The way I generally decide on Supers is whether or not the super adds something to your arsenal. Obviously, with a game as deeply explored as 3rd Strike, people generally know a thing or two, but I still keep that idea in mind. >_>
For some Hugo videos check out Hayao and YSB. Very different styles. You’ll just have to figure out on your own what you like.
Cr. LK xx LP A.X.E is a decent bnb, and X-NDL does pretty solid damage if you cancel into it from a cr. LK x2 (verifiable). I also punish random stuff with a mashed EX A.X.E.; seems like his most powerful non-super option.
I’ve seen videos of both and personally i probably see myself using Gigas breaker more often just for that fear factor
Oh hey guys, I have time to hang around srk because of weird happenings. :V
Either one is fine and is for the most part based on preference, though you’ll be better off using SA3 against certain characters…particularly Dudley.
I think I’m the only asshole that also uses SA2 with Hugo. And I use it quite frequently.
Shit man. Alex is capable of some serious stun, man. And his taunt damage increase is pretty fucking significant. Not that I expect to get many taunt opportunities in a match.
According to the wiki, HP Flash , MK xx SA2 is his BnB. I’ve learned how to do this on both sides no problem.
My question is: Is it worth it to do HP Flash , MK xx Elbow? Or Just something like HP Flash , MK , LP/EX Flash?
*Edit: Also, yes, I didn’t know anything about Alex because I’ve never paid attention to him as a character. Only Yang for years and Q recently. Now that I’ve started branching out, I’m looking at more characters and finding more of their shit interesting.
I didn’t know many people actually landed hp chops
