First step to fixing Fei: Make Ultra activate on any hit in the sequence, even from a juggle.
If they at least don’t let you juggle into it, Capcom really is just laying turd right in front of you guys.
The topic name “make fei long competitive”, that dream is now far far out of reach. He’s probably now pushed down FURTHER than he was in sf4 due to the new cast and buffs other characters got like chun li, abel, dan etc and all fei long gets is a useless rubbish counter ultra.
I’m sorry but I’m not impressed. From what I’m seeing is that Fuerte didn’t get any new buffs (increased health/damage, etc.) or any fixes to his old moves (Q bomb) and his new Ultra although fast, doesn’t deal nearly as much damage as Giga Buster.
I’ll continue to use Fuerte because he’s so fun, but it looks like I’m definitely going to have to find a new main come SSF4 to stay competitive.
That damage Dudley did off him, counter hit or not, was really stupid.
Wrong thread, pal, but I hear ya.
After thinking about Makoto’s karakusa command grab, y can’t fei’s tenshin be somewhat like that, a little faster? Both have the same input I think and Makoto’s grab seems way better from what I’ve seen. Both require a short frame to combo into, but fei long’s tenshin is harder to use effectively. To make fei a bit more competitive they should fix up that tenshin, damage output, or his rekkas, or maybe all of them…
He doesn’t just need a slight buff now, he needs a complete OVERHAUL.
Confirmed: Ultra 2 does not work against Akuma’s cr. jab.
I knew this was going to happen.
Confirmed it does

It’s right at 15 seconds for a split second Akuma uses C. LP may have to pause it real quick to see but it’s there.
The video you linked probably happened after it’s active frames.
ummmm… i’m REALLY speechless after seeing what happens to his ultra. Have no idea of what to say…
I’m sticking it out just for the 1-inch punch
Somebody’s gotta fall for it…
It’ll be usefull vs a number of characters for sure, like probably anyone throwing out a uncancelable super. Blanka ball, head butt, Sim’s spinning head thing lol, probably even those long ass limbs of his too…that would be kinda wierd but I bet it’s possible.
(this is all under the assumption that super won’t straight out stuff it)
Its useful vs a button masher who clearly has no idea what he/she is doing.
O i know whats up with fei’s ultra 2, i have confidence im correct as well. I’m pretty sure it can be in active frames for at least 5 seconds, but the plus is that you could cancel it whenever you like. Hence why fei’s ultra lost to a jab.
This too. I don’t know about you but I don’t play tournaments. It’ll see some use on my side. I am a bit upset they didn’t give him better buffs all around though. He will still be bottom tier and all, which sucks cause he is so cool.
better buffs? As of now he has been given NO BUFFS, there has been no reports on any changes on fei. As far as we know he’s still SF4 fei with an option of selecting a counter ultra.
Hrm probably not the best word choice on my part. I guess what I should have said is I wish he had been given buffs directly instead of the BS “but we are nerfing other character so he will be better” schtick.
That video of the counter missing even made me sad for Fei and I don’t give a damn about the character.
It’s kinda ridiculous how small the active counter window is. I’m curious if he was stuck in that stance when Akuma c.lp’d him out. If so, then a whiffed counter easily means a painful punish.
No reports, but nothing actually confirmed right? I will cling to that hope then. 
Yeah nothing confirmed, no buffs nor nerfs although I can’t see what else you can possibly nerf with fei since nothing is outstanding.
At least they didn’t nerf his FA. We should be grateful for that instead of keep complaining I guess.
