The "Make Fei Long competitive" thread

Fei Long have the fastest ultra in the game, and probably one of the best ranges. So if you use it right, you get and lvl2 focus.

I’ll still give Fei a shot when the game comes out. But he’ll really need to be improved for me to have him as a main or even secondary character.

The ex-chicken wing nerf is bad news. I hope they fix his ultra and give him some better options. If they don’t, there’s still 34 other characters to choose from.

With Ultras getting toned down damage-wise is it that urgent that Fei’s ultra get buffed? The only thing I see wrong with it is that even though the first hit connects, the full ultra can still whiff. But to anyone saying he needs an uppercut fadc full ultra: go play Ryu because this isn’t the character for you.

Fei already has one of the strongest super combos in the game. It does almost 50% in SF4, but I’m not quite sure how much it’ll do in SSF4 in comparison to other supers.

Personally, I’d really like to be able to FADC out of Rekkas. Something like Rekka x 2 FADC Standing HP, Rekka x 3 would be devastating even after damage scaling. He wouldn’t even need an ultra then.

Amen, but unfortunetly that’s exactly probably why they wont give it to him

Hi Mr. Troll, how’s that bridge coming along?

I’m not, and do not mean to be trolling at all. I just think flame kick to ultra 1 is what he needs to be competitive. He has such a great set of tools for footsies already. Great b&b’s. Great super combos. Outside of super combos though, his damage is really lacking. You have to outguess your opponent many times…whereas sagat just needs one slip up. I’ll quit posting though, since nobody really cares for what i have to say :sad:

attention whore much?

So they really did nerf ex chicken wing, huh? I like how I was told “no nerfs” and the only things I hear about are… Nerfs.

I mean ATLien is right, overall he NEEDS a way to use his ultra. I say Fei needs this or that but really I do fine in most matchups and think Fei has the shit to handle most characters but… overall he NEEDS comeback potential like everyone else.

I have my fingers crossed for command grab ultra.

Ok, i am very disappointed in the changes to fei long =(

Where is this ex chickenwing nerf stuff coming from?

btw he looks like garbage compared to makoto, he’s prolly garbage compared to most of the new characters. yup time to go switch mains and bench fei =/

If that’s the final build in that video… then fei looks like garbage

I kinda hate to admit it, but the more I read about and see video of Cody, the more I begin to think that he’s going to be my main in SSF4. It’s not that I think Fei’s going to be terribad or anything, it’s just that Cody seems like a much more complete character who’s also a lot of fun to use. If I had to choose between a solid character that’s fun to use and a character that’s fun to use but often takes a crapton of work to win with, I’ll go with the former every time. I’ll definitely give Fei a fair amount of play time though.

P.S.: Can’t really tell what, if anything, changed just by watching that video, but here’s a fun exercise: count how many times each character’s command throw connects during the course of the match. Yeah. :stuck_out_tongue:

I like how after these video every character thread is like “he/she is so garbage”.So i take it that EVERY character in SSF4 is garbage?

Very disappointed the lack of changes to Fei. Unless there’s nothing being shown that’s worth noting.

Not garbage but a lack of notable changes if any at all. LOL at the quote when he does ultra 2 though.

Most characters in SFIV were garbage when compared to pretty much any other fighter capcom has made and they still seem to be as garbage-y.
