The "Make Fei Long competitive" thread

Looks like you’ll have to settle for the 3-piece combo

I’m jumping ship as soon as I confirm Fei is still trash (Trash may be a harsh word).

Then again, I’m renting SSF4 as a precaution to see exactly how similar it is considering I dislike SF4 and was hoping SSF4 would be a major improvement.

Renting SSF4…?

My nigga… what are you gonna be playing?!

I gotta admit… I was laughing for like 5 minutes straight after reading this.

20/20 vision

How are people confused when I type the same thing but give examples of how the Ultra is set up into a combo and examples of other characters already having easy mode with juggling Ultras?


As for that other comment, sure it is decent damage, but it is not good damage.
A nerf with cannon spike and is far less then any shoto combo,
In Cammys case it is easier to punish but harder to combo.

As for Fei, the best he has is the 3 hit ultra in a juggle, thats it.

No idea what you’re talking about, only ryu, sagat and sakura if you consider her a shoto can juggle into full ultra, ken most of the time cannot and you can only get it from a late f.srk or a CH SRK and we don’t even need to discuss akuma.

To be honest, at present even if you do an ultra after a CW after flame kick you only get like a few pixels of damage, its almost negligible, you only get 3 punches of the ultra if you time it right.

I’m having doubts that you even PLAY fei long at all tbh or even this game, you just type random sht which lack any incoherent sense.

I play HDR. I remember myself saying that I would drop HDR when SF4 was released on consoles. A month after SF4, I went back to HDR and never looked back. I want to give the SSF4 developers the benefit of the doubt seeing SF4 was the first version where things can be improved on, but from what info I’ve been reading, they haven’t changed much so I’m renting it for that reason.

I’ll probably pick it up used when it drops to around $20-25.

wait what! are you serious?

To be fair, the nerfed EX CW was in an early build of the game. For all we know, he may have gained it back or gotten something else to make up for it (fireball-safe ex rekkas maybe?).

but mr. wizard said no obvious changes :confused:

I remember asking that question specifically when MrWizard, Ponder, haunts et al were taking questions on WakeUp SRK, and if memory serves MrWiz said he didn’t know. By “no obvious changes” he could have meant no changes from SF4.

If there were any sort of changes in regards to his other moves then they look pretty negligible from the video. Hell I didn’t even notice a change in CW in the video and that was supposed to be changed.

I’m gonna learn to play it so I don’t get left behind when HDR gets left behind. Presumably when the next gen consoles come out.

Unless there has been serious changes to how the game plays. By that I mean how DEFENSIVE sfiv is. Its really starting to annoy me how easier you have it if you just sit back and bait whiffs rather than take the initiative and attack. So if SSFIV ends up with the same overall turtle gameplay Ill be moving on.

As for Fei… Im just about to abandon him in sfiv nevermind ssfiv. I guess Im not good enough to further weaken myself with a character, Theres no scene near me and trying to land 1 frame links online is taking the piss, and Ive had enough.

*apologise for the negative tone of this post, but I’m having better success using Dan out of fustration than Fei

EDIT: In simple terms, Street Fighter 4 is in my oppinion RUINED by Ultra combos. you are rewarded for getting your ass kicked with what usually is the most powerfull game winning move in your Characters arsenal. You are punished for going offensive and trying to win the match because ‘most’ Ultras are easily combo’d from defensive moves.

Dano i dropped Fei for about 2 weeks and picked him back up again after playing with Rose for a while and it helped. You should try it out some time. Maybe its because Rose doesnt have a DP type reversal, but it helped me improve my Def game and anticipating people.

I don’t see why people insist on living and dieing by the character they picked. Is there not like 30+ characters in SSF4? If your raging because your character sucks or you’re no longer enthused by the challenge of maining a gimped character to the point that you hate SFIV altogether, fucking pick another character, shit! I don’t see why you should hate the whole thing because of something you chose to do to yourself. It’s not like Fei Long was ever good anyways. Now go lrn sAgats bnbs before super comes out.

btw, I don’t main Ryu. I main Guile, and no, I’m not falling for that shit again. I wish there was a black version of Fei Long in SSF4, so you guys can have a new and improved version of the same character like me, but shit happens.

True, I was thinking of trying Rose out :pleased:, but the problem Im having is less to do with the roster and more the overall feel of the game. (Off topic I know :xeye:) It really does seem to lean to the extreme side of defensive thinking, and worse, if your defense isn’t rock solid the game says " oh your losing, thats ok… HERE have a overpowered move ". I think if SSFIV goes the same route Ill be walking away.

Why should you get a reward for playing badly?.. and in Feis case why make the reward so useless.
Super moves were a good edition to Street Fighter, Bar managment an ex moves even better ones. Ultra moves, created a character imbalance where without them the game would be amazingly well balanced.

EDIT: I will be picking another character, before buying a TE stick I mained Gen, and had Fei/Chun and Guile as my backups, Im in Limbo as Fei is the only character I can play ‘proper’ on the stick, and I guess thats annoying me too.

*** lots of moaning today lol

i cant agree more

O yeah, people playing with Dan is actually a GREAT idea. he’s like a stress reliever or something. It’s actually pretty fun to play as him. I know when i play as him i OD on the taunts. I’m definitely gonna be using him alot in player matches from here on till super.

That will nAvAr happen!11!!
