I would also appreciate any tips you guys have for me =)

My advice? Play against someone who knows the sagat match up better than the CPU on the easiest setting.

meaty tiger knees to ultra off the ground is possible! heres a link

Uh, it doesn’t even have to be meaty. You can easily do this to many crouching characters in the corner. For example, have Ryu in the corner crouching, and then go right next to him and do:

(corner) cr. :lk:, cr :lk:, cr. :lp: xx :mk: Tiger Knee, Ultra (or another Tiger Knee)

And this double Tiger Knee is actually stronger than ending with the Tiger Uppercut. So, if you got your opponent in the corner and they are getting hit crouching, hit them with this double Tiger Knee for more damage and style points. :smokin:

Also, I do NOT recommend juggling an Ultra in the corner for any combo (unless it’s for the win). You do insignificant damage, get your opponent out of the corner, as well as put yourself in the corner. It is much better to end with a :hk: Tiger Knee or f.:hk:.

Arcade. I’m a pad player still learning stick so you’ll see me make some minor mistakes. If you see me do sweep or fierce then it was suppose to be a fireball lol.

hmm not bad for a pad player but i’d say in the akuma matchup, you let him rush you down into a corner too easily and just kinda stood there when there was a space to react.

Lol… Are you crazy? I don’t know if you know the match up but once Akuma gets Sagat in the corner you’re at a real disadvantage. What could I have done? Click buttons? Tiger knee? Tiger shot? He was frame trapping me. He was baiting me to click buttons. Tiger knee, tiger shot - s.HK, c.HK will beat start up. cr.MK demon - tiger knee. Sagats s.HK can be countered sweep on recovery. Even if he doesn’t do any of them and reacted fireballs he can jump ex air fireball. Ex fireball once blocked mix up starts. The air fireball puts you in a stupid block stun where if you block wrong you will start getting combo’d. If you’re also talking about the first video where I had a big gap where I could have maybe thrown tigershot no. He would have jumped ex fireball. I was waiting for him to either jump or air fireball to ex upper > ultra.

Sorry for long post. lol.

hes not playing some scrub akuma hes playing zak one of the best in europe!!!

First video…

0:25 secs… he takes many steps back, i’m sure you could have done something.

0:50-0:59 Instaburn of meter for what? Nothing.

1:14 Nice Kara

Overall in the first fight…You poked him a few times and didn’t follow up at all. Maybe it’s the pad to stick adjustment.

At 0:25 what would you have done and I’ll tell you what would happen to you. In that area he could have reacted to tiger shots, tiger knee. If I dashed forward HK. Do you know how dumb it is vs Akuma when you do something stupid and end up in a loop or a knockdown?

Ok what? You give me a critism and only produce one example at 0:25 secs? lol.

I burnt meter for nothing? I burnt meter and got damage + knockdown. I burnt meter to get away from Akuma. Akumas frame traps are not nice and once he gets one knockdown or loop that could be game over. Sagat can also produce meter really quick. Burning meter with Sagat is nothing.

Slizzle you have a great sagat, but some things you should cut out. Fwd+rh kara TU. You take away two bars that could be used for FADC ultra or to get out of a sticky situation, and every time you’ve done it the opponent blocks. At that range you might as well tigerknee mk or fwd+lk. Also you let Zak do air ex fireballs freely even when you had meter. Do EX TU in that case, and if he’s a bit further fwd+rh kara EX TU. Another thing to help with the Akuma matchup, if you can predict or feel like he’s going to do far rh and contact you, simply jump neutral MK, crouch jab, TU or TS. You can catch him on the recovery frames of far RH and it’s perfectly safe, a good option to do if you feel akuma is pressuring you too much with RH.

Against Ryu if he ever hurricanes and you’re crouching, c.HP it, twice you c.MP it. Solid game against Ryu but if he’s ever going to whiff ultra fireball, either jump forward or jump neutral, it was unnecessary to jump back. I prefer to jump forward, then jump forward j.HK, st.MP, HP TU for max damage.

You have a great Sagat, and you seem very good on stick for someone still learning. Keep it up, and in high pressure situations for example vs the end with ryu, just keep it safe and watch out for his jumpin, which a deep TU will take care of (so no trade hit resulting in your death).

sagat wins!!

Slizzle, you disappoint me :shake:

We were supposed to be repping pad… how could you :sad: ??

arcade ftw. in all seriousness pad with any character is a-ok except gief. Lariat.

Guys, could i please get some advice on my vids as well? ^^;
I have posted them above, but looks like i only got negative replie…
The Ken i played against is not a scrub, if you thinks so, your wrong.

Btw i use pad aswell ^^
