I feel hugo is the ultimate char to expose bad players that panic. Hitting people with splash into combo when they try to mash dragonpunch/backdash or jump away is sweet.
I’ve heard of an option select for his lariat and meat squasher. Does anyone know how it works?
thank you based ultra david
Have you guys tried option selecting on your opponent’s wakeup? something like cr lk and immediately input hk backbreaker? I ahve a feeling that this catches backdashes…
Is his Leap Attack worth using?( Its the overhead with two down motions and MK)
I’ve been using it for wake to do a cr.Lp then Moonsault Press or Meat squasher
Also i noticed if you time it right you can hit a backdash and it with knock your opponent into a juggle state and you can follow up with st.Lk, Mp Standing Balm Breaker, Mk Shootdown Backbreaker.
I’ve also been using Heihachi and Hugo on a Team.
Heihachi Seems to help Hugo get to the corner.
Also, on a random note im trying to find a funny name for my Team any ideas?
Sorry for the large post,
Thanks for your time. ^^
god i still sometimes get rushed down and sometimes i have hard time getting in still…getting better though
lk and mk backbreaker will catch backdashes at point blank. there is no option select for it though. if the c.lk connects the backbreaker will whiff and if you manage to get it in during the invincible frames the backbreaker won’t come out.
After finishing a combo with backbreaker, jump forward with splash for timing and meter, wait slightly and then do leap attack.
It will auto correct if they roll.
It will put them in a float state if they try to jump or backdash
It will put them in a crumple’ish state if they get CH while crouching
Once they start blocking or doing reversals you have a 50/50 going with grab or block’n’punish
Leap attack is really good, it will also jump over some reversals causing them to whiff(ex patriot circle).
Also you can os backbreaker.
Thanks so much ^^
I’ll go try that right now.
Thanks I’ve been having a hard time fighting and keeping pressure on Rolento.
I laugh at this thread. HAHA!
Im number 1
Using d~u superjump helps deal with projectiles a bit also.
I freaking hate trying to meaty low short and get autocorrect backbreaker because they roll.
YES THIS. a way to lessen that is to really do d+lk and not df or db.
Anyone have any Anti Hugo strategies? having huge troubles against this character, please offer some perspective as hugo players.
Stay away from him. Why is everyone not treating him like Vanilla SF4 Zangief?
Seriously though it depends on who you play.
I just feel like he rules on the ground with Hyper armor Lariat that is safe on block, and rules the air with Backbreaker, and good pokes, and air buttons along with that. And Vortex is Vortex
Why does everyone think that lariat is safe on block?
It feels like it, and I don’t like to use shorts in this game. How much is it on the negative then?
Also I don’t remember the Frame Data for this game yet
