The Dragunov thread

I suck with Soviet Russia jokes…and I have no idea how to play Dragonuv, but I will quote/link to combos and strats written by others in this first post, so post away guys :sweat:

Note:-
1= LP
RP= 2
LK= 3
4= RK

Combo by Mystic:-
:df:+2–>4, 1–>:r:+1–>1, 3, 2 B!–>3,1,2

wr2. All day son.

…but I wanna do more than that, I wanna know of any setups to his throws (eg :r::r:+(LP+RP)) among other things; I WANNA DO REAL SOVIET DAMAGE!

WR2 is all you need.

…but why?

this :coffee:

lol I have no idea b/c I don’t play Drag, but Mystic seems to have mad faith in this move haha

Its one of his main pressure moves. It has INSANE block stun and its safe, Not to mention if it hits you have free damage, Or free damage and a combo if you’re good enough. Plus it covers hella distance. It seriously is his best move.

OK, I’ll try to utilize it in a session tonight. I’ll also link to some Dragonuv matches later on in the first post.

Urgh! Is that the shoulder tackle? My friend and I were trying to learn the game together and he was straight raping me with that move.

Nah its his running haymaker. His shoulder tackle is qcf1+2

What’s WR2? I’m trying to learn Dragunov (I think TC misspelled his name). He’s pretty cool, but I fail to use him well.

While running 2. Usually its just iWR2. Gotta learn the fff buffer.

So let’s talk Soviet Counters here… Like.

Back + LP + LK

I can’t honestly use it that well and it seems to grab the most random types of attacks. I guess its mid-attacks that it catches? But does he have any means of catching high attacks? I know the low counter catch works fine, but this one is puzzling.

What are the inputs for Dragunov’s sample combo 6?
I’m trying to do follow up with d+RP after db+LK, but it just won’t combo. I’m suspecting there is a move that resembles d+RP but has faster startup, enabling it to combo off of db+LK.

Also, how do you combo after this WR2 (RP while running, right?)?

One little trick or bit of information I’m definitely finding in almost all my Dragonuv matches.

About 90% of the time right after Towards RK -> Down RK, they’ll be at a definite disadvantage and will try to attack out of just getting him by the low kick. Use Dragonuv’s Down+Right RP launcher and I swear almost all the time you’ll pop them into the air, than just follow up with whatever air juggle you like. I just tend to go with.

LP - LK - RP and than Down RK - RK, from the training sample.

Use numbers for the buttons. It’ll be easier on you and it’ll be easier for others to read.

Because I use a laptop and haven’t memorized where numbers are on the number pad, and don’t really know which buttons correspond to which attacks, (ie, 1, 2, 3, 4) I didn’t use numbers. But for next time, what are the buttons?

I’m assuming LP is 1, RP is 2, LK is 3, and RK is 4?

thats correct

@CG- Thanks for the combo, I’ll try it out later on :tup:

A simple combo is, df2 4,1 1 1,3,2b! 3,1,2
