I’m turning into a grappler player, this definitely seems like a game for me with Hugo, King and Marduk.
Hugo so far looks the most fun, I’m going to have to keep up with this thread.
k updated the OP, let me know guys if there’s something that i should edit or add there.
Super art will be performed with either :3k: or :3p:
Either? Are there any differences in the SA between using punches or kickes?
Are you sure that his super will be a 720? I would think that it would not be, since it starts with a strike (the Lariat) and, when blocked, goes into the same animation as the EX version of his lariat, as opposed to the throw animation.
yeah, pretty sure (from watching as many hugo videos as possible) his super in this game isn’t even a grab anymore with the ways people have been comboing into it
specially in the first video we got to see hugo, he does Ultra Throw into Gigas Breaker
I saw the starting swipe of Hugo’s tag super get blocked, which would explain how Poison managed to jump away in time in that one vid. It was in one of the vids on this guy’s channel, don’t remember which one though:

EDIT: Found it, it’s at 5:18 in this vid:
The super is obviously QCF+3K, since it’s a charged up version of Monster Lariat.
When i was looking around for videos i found one where a glitch accord during the match.
None of the characters could attack each other until they teched a throw.
wait, Gigas breaker ISN’T a grab anymore!?
that’s actually pretty lame.
it’s cool that it can be comboed into, but… no. I want that Super throw damnit.
YOU CEN’T BEAT ME, LEWK AT MY MUSSAILS!
Your links are a little messed up, all of the ones after L1eAnD9LGDU are hyperlinks to L1eAnD9LGDU itself and aJlQdvgSJJc is on there twice.
Looks like all of Hugo’s moves can be EX, contrary to III. I wonder what kind of difference that’ll make? Are we just looking at a little more damage, or say some crazier juggle properties on EX Ultra Throw?
I know this will sound stupid, and probably broken, but I feel as though certain command throws (other than anti-air throws) should be comboable. It would allow Grapplers like Hugo to combo into the stuff they’re known for, GRAPPLIN’, without being outshown by more traditionally combo oriented characters in a combo intensive game (which this looks like it’s shaping up to be)
Honestly, there’s no reason why Gigas Breaker can’t work like that. outside of a combo? Unblockable grab (that abides by grab rules), during a combo? EIN, ZWEI, DREI, ENDE!!!
But I’m just being a nitpicky and frightened of change, so feel free to ignore these ill advised musings XD
That’s one of the things I’ve always liked about King of Fighters, being able to combo into throws.
ARGENTINA BACKBREAKER 4 LIFE
with 3SOE out, my Hugo fever is still here.
I WANT MORE HUGO CAPCOM. I’VE GOT A FEVER AND THE ONLY CURE IS MORE HUGO

Does anyone know what Ono is talking about here? I know Hugo’s Cross Art (did I say that right?) starter has him throwing his opponent and skidding them along the ground to his partner, but I wonder if there’s more to come?
Ehh, probably just mean some of his normals/specials have new properties that suit the SFxT engine. Like one of his normals (can’t even remember which button, but the giant elbow move) ground bounces (I think), and his EX Monster Lariat is his Hammer Mountain Super Art from Third Strike.
Edit: Nevermind, guess I’m just crazy. Elbow normal doesn’t groundbounce. Don’t know what I was thinking… would be too good if it does.
no videos from PAX besides the terrible stream?
it doesnt seem like there are that many vids coming up, i used him only for two matches, other than the obvious, hugo is kinda like his 3S self, i think hes still hard to use, hard to master sort of deal~ but i liked him, he does alot of damage. but i didnt really use him too much other than just to get Poison’s frail self out of there, and to deal alot of damage when i got cheap wins off her CrossArt.
well as long as standing MP is still a decent poke, ill be pretty happy
