The Complete Dudley Thread

you know. back in my day, we didnt have youtube to watch combo videos on or match videos. take advantage of that.

heres a match between one of the best dudleys vs the best urien. see how he deals with it

watch dudleys position and choice of action vs uriens cr.mk. its pretty effective.

I’ve seen that vid as well as the several others of him fighting RX on youtube. He still didn’t look like he had an easy time winning. :xeye: It’s funny you say that doing ducking xx super on jump against Hugo isn’t a good idea since I’ve read that’s one of the main things you SHOULD do against him.

hmm. yea. you could be right about the hugo thing. since he would most likely try to jump in super or jump in 360.

Those 3s fights are ridiculous I picked up this game last month.I play with Dudley,ken,ibuki and urien.People give me advice saying "Pick a character and stick with it."So far i narrowed it down to dudley and urien…its for the juggles i realized…most of dudleys standing mk,fp.lk(i think)and rh are all awesome AA.I dont see or hear a lot of use for the srk…my problem is on wake up im always dying to srk…can you help me put some benadryl on my itchy fingers?

Dudley’s uppercut has horrible invincibility. You have to do an EX Upper to even beat meaties. It’s also not as good an anti-air as s.hk because if they parry s.hk, you can cancel into lp MGB and force them to parry more.

If you want a safer reversal, EX Shortswing Blow is either invincible on startup or just swings back really quickly, but it seems to work for me. But still, you just need to learn to not do anything usually on your wakeup. Just quick stand and block the meaty/tech the throw. The only way you’re gonna learn this is if people punish you for reversals.

block.

Don’t forget you can also use his target combos (mp mk hp or mk hk hp) as anti air too. Alter the timing to make parrying harder. Also, you can cancel into ducking from s. hk too to go under them.

wow, thanks dudley fans and teachers FTW!!!Any other good tricks i can use tonite?

lol. st.rh xx duck > grab. love it.

Tech throws i can do…Great advice darkhiryuu, thanks.Thats what makes me like Dudley his combos look really nice and feel good…

Great thread epsilon_!!!:lovin:

What is everyone’s opinion on the Oro matchup with Dudley? Trying to get out of the unblockable once he’s got it going is a real bitch, and a lot of his pokes seem hard to punish.

Oro’s hard … He has great pokes against Dudley, however st.rh/cr.fp/cr.mp/st.fp works good against his pokes aswell.

I do not have that much experience in the matchup, try to play it patiently and do not jump to much. A good Oro can really mess you up for jumping.

Getting out of the unblockable … Well, it’s easier to just avoid getting caught in it, really. Look at whatever it is that makes him hit it and avoid that, rather then trying to parry out of the unblockable would be my advice.

If he does the “chickenstomps” on your block, you can usually/always punish it with cmd.dash xx corkcrew.

oro may beat dudley 6-4, his mobility (especially his ability to dash under s.mp dudley’s jumpins) can really give dudley a hard time, plus he’s a small target, it is easy to make dudley whiff moves with oro.

Took my notes to the lab today…So far i like the results!! I love dudley

yea, dudleys mgbs will whiff on a crouching oro if you try to cancel from a st.rh. best suggestion i have is to learn to st.rh xx ducking xx super. this goes for chun too.

lol i like the One-Hitter-Quitter technique advice. From what i learned thats what its about…not always the big fancy shmancy combos

werrrrd

I gotcha blooper. I know his MGB whiffs on crouching Chun Oro Ibuki and Elena. I guess I just need to learn the Urien and Oro matchups more and I’ll do better.

When are you allowed to do combo standing roundhouse into shortswing blow x super?
is it during the corner? character specific?

wtf, i dont think thats possible at all.

if anything, it would have to be on a crouching char in the corner… but i dont think the hit stun on st rh is that long to combo into short swing blow.:wtf:

and on top of that, you might as well do st rh into ducking into super. you dont get damage scaled as much. and its 100% known to be possible.

Works on anyone if you’re in the corner right next to them. From what I’ve tested before, midscreen it works on a standing Urien, Necro, & Alex (SA1 misses and SA3 you just get the crappy last hits).

Uh it does more damage than if you were to do st. rh x upper x super. Besides it just looks sexy. :cool:
