hehe ye well… i tryed kept avoiding his cr.hk or get hit while doing the low dash. but thats what you gotta spam, one of rogs strongest weapons against gief ^^
Darn cant view those files at all. I heard that they were really great matches. 1st one to 10 wins vs everyone that was there. Thats a lot of ST in one night no wonder it lasted like 16 hours.
You don’t generally need kick rushes against zangief so you should be charging TAP with kicks while doing the low rushes so that on knockdown you can hit with a 5-Final. Also after a blocked low rush, st. Fierce is a good “placeholder” move that will either hit them and do hella good damage, or get blocked and let you charge for another rush or headbutt.
Kick rush super beats clothesline btw. I just know the Rog vs Gief matchup very well because a local player has a sick gief and I play against him with Rog a lot.
i bearly do kick rushes and i know they aint TOO good, that is. but they are good sometimes imo, sometimes for an AA for long distance when you just KNOW/sees that he’s gonna jump.
and yea! i know the thing with st.fierce aswell…think i got it on other vids where im playing, have a look around, i just somehow didnt do them that set… maybe 1 or something, didnt feel no need for them maybe.
one thing tho, i somehow (dont know where or WHY) recall that rogs super (with kick) didnt work on OLD GIEF! so yep, that was a huge mistake… maybe would have gotten 1-3 more supers, could have changed the outcome but more than that he’d learn to not do lariat while i got the super bar. cool that you’re a rog player yourself btw :tup:
The kick rush has two versions, if you charge and then press d/f+short, it will be a version that recovers faster and knocks down. This move is GREAT because it has so little recovery time that you use it to get in close and then immediately do f+MP headbutt throw. Try it. :tup:
So sorry for trying to give you a friendly tip, oh ST master.
I like your match against this guy, you have some decent rushdown:

Last Seattle tournament, my matches:
Wins-
Losses-
Criticism welcome, I know I’m a beginner and can improve a ton. BTW I usually am better at getting d+forward>d+strong>low rush out, I got the first two hits and missed my low rush a lot that tournament for some reason.
hehe, im gonna check the links out. and nah man i didnt mean it like that, i just thought the stuff you wrote down was so basic ^^ so im sorry myself. anyway! you might know that some stuff, “tricks” or whatever might not work to good vs. a specific player you’re playing thats alot of what street fighter is based on, adjusting to your opponent. thats why i didnt do exactly those rush uppercuts-throw vs. this gief dude for example, shit just wouldnt work correctly lol… was so frightened to do it XD i’ll write a next post after watching the vids man, looking foward to it :tup:
1 - If you are poking out of hit range: ie - your poke won’t connect - use the crouching forward more than the strong. While the strong has greater range (less relevance if you are poking out of range) the forward has the ability to hit or snuff counter pokes. You can actually beat out other characters ducking forwards clean.
2 - Now this is somewhat a scrubby suggestion, but it works nonetheless as long as you aren’t fighting elite players - abuse Boxer’s throw. If you get an opponent in the throw simply crossover, tick and throw again. Sometimes you should just keep doing it until your opponent breaks it. One of the setups I use is throw>walking crossover>meaty ducking strong> walk up throw or another meaty ducking strong into a high rush>throw. (high rush should wiff unless opponent stands for some reason) Obviously you can come up with your own variation, maybe add some jump tactics in there.
I used to use the throw, crossup tick throw a lot, but it really wasn’t improving my gameplay to do so… at least up here there’s one player I have very little chance of beating, a couple others that I can beat if I play my 100%…and everyone else.
Pretty much everyone in the top 4 who I would need tricks to beat is very good at counter throwing now, you really have to work for throws nowadays. But for sure if I see opportunities I will.
thanks, more videos from the last tourney and money matches will be up tommorow. :tup:
