Finally, I am going to my first tournament at 23rd Oct in Weesp. Are you also coming?
To my surprise, Organizer invited tones of pro players such as Poongko, Ryan Hart, V-ryu sensei and many others. I think if you are not coming. I will be the only one using hakan and sure will get my ass kicked.
Seth, Yun, akuma are the hardest to win for me…Let hope that I don’t get eliminated right after the first round!!!..haaha

Forward Jab is your best friend against yun, I’ve stopped ex rush punches with it… 
Good luck in the tourney Andy. Hope you do well!
But again, why a new thread for this, you should have just posted in the Hakan general discussion thread. Ah well, not my job to sort these things out. Show poongko what Hakan can do
I am not like you… The chance that I miss FADC back dash into a jab or short is high… Often is just dash or focus out directly. especially when the timing is tight.
I think this is the only thing missing from my part. Some moves just can’t not be punished with that dashing invisibility.
like dee jay air knee connecting to low jabs…
We are talking about poongko…He kicked the shit out of Daigo at ev2011… I am happy to just win one round. Maybe I can just guess right and land a U2 right after got knock down…or catch his back dash
If you’re struggling with the backdash, just use forward dash instead. You really need to start parrying. I know you’re learning stick, but it’s so important and it will help your execution.
And you’re right about DJ’s knee being hard to parry, but you can definitely do it, but it would likely require backdash jab. I’m making a new video just now about Hakan and cancelling for pressure, you should check it out
Forward dash does not work if the opponent do a DP or grab afterward. I have mastered long ago. Besides, when i get nervous, I sometimes tend to mash a lot on the buttons and occasionally U1…which in a tourney makes a lot of noise.
The tourney is using xbox…I have not choice of using ps3 pad there…so, have to use stick…sigh…
Nah, not true at all, if you parry a jump in right, into say cr.lk, the opponent can’t DP before you hit them, it’s impossible…this only happens if you do the parry too slow. You need to be as fast as possible, this is why it takes a lot of practice. That’s worrying if you’re getting grabbed.
You’ll be fine man, though I wouldn’t advise mashing U1, just be patient, you’ll get your chances. I think people seem to feel when they’re getting pressured they have to press a lot of buttons and start panicking. Good blocking and defense can frustrate your opponent.
Come on…FA cancel into forward dash parry does not work if the opponents do a late hit connecting to ex-DP. it only work when it is a early hit
its not possible to parry a landing into SRK the SRK will always hit thanks the invinvibility; of cours it depents on the deepnes of the jumpin but if the opponent know that you will parry it its not save against invincibility moves but then again invinicibility moves arent the moves that make sense after a jumpin…
Yeah… my bad habit is that I focus too long while he is in the air. So , he has the time to choose what to do after he lands hit.
then you know what to do… focus in the last moment:P
I was just talking about normal jump-ins though, not deep jump ins into EX SRK, lol. You did get me testing a few things though, and I found something interesting. If Ryu does Deep jumping HK > crouching jab, and you backdash parry into cr.lk, st.jab etc…you’ll get hit. If you use forward dash however, Ryu will get counterhit. Must be something to do with the movement of his backdash.
So it seems Parry with dash forward for air attacks might actually be better. It’s a lot easier that’s for sure!
absolutely sure not better
if you miss the perfekt window for a backdashthe window will close itself that actually is a good thig (only if you are not in the corner) so you will backdash if your arry would be to late and you can actually just mash c.lp xx slide it is save within the backdash bu in the forwarddash it would be stupid
No thats true, there is probably a greater element of safety with using the backdash cancel, though I’m just saying to Andy that there’s nothing wrong with using forward dash parries against air attacks…unless the opponent is doing deep jump ins into EX SRK, lol
damn i was boozed there what typingerrors… Well forwarddashes if not mastert can althou loos to deep jumpins with c.jabs and that’s a pain in the ass 
Lol i just said a few posts ago that forward dash parry will beat deep jump ins with jabs! And anyway, unless it’s a meaty situation, it’s very unlikely an opponent is going to do a deep jump in from a neutral position.
Practice Practice Practice. Thats all I can say.
Good luck, and if I had any advice it would be to block the shit out everything and stay oily. Dont do anything you’re not comfortable doing in a tournament setting.
^ and practice is a must ^
yeah the problem with dash vorward is that you can cancle it lat a early one will maybe beat it but then it’s the HARDER and more advnced to use methode since its more punishable on mistake!! that’s why everybody how dont can use dash back cancel should never touch dash vorward cancel…
Sorry didn’t see the forum. A little bit late but, I was representing ICxI. I didn’t see you play, it was very full. But I was second in pools, I lost to TEC Rekka “Seth” > could easy win > I train daily with ICxI Ferdi aka | Seth |. But I had no time to warm up. After 1 match you have to stand up and leave. So every time I had to concentrate hard. At the losers bracket I won of an Zangief (was easy) the boy was not pleased to lose against Hakan, we reacted very suprised. He was french i think. 2nd match was against sim, i was too aggressief …but 2012 will be in our favour I hope!
Thanks for sharing STErcan. Nice to see a real Hakan on the forum for a change.
