Ultra Unblockable

Let’s test Chun li!

lets not

Akuma’s Ultra unblockable, can also be performed with super: [media=youtube]fZ4EMEd2008[/media]

seems like if you can afford to you’re better off eating the damage rather than wasting a stock on a bad guess and potentially eating seth’s biggest combo into mixup -> dizzy. not like it does that much damage anyway.

First post updated with more info.

there’s NO way they knew about it and fixed it :slight_smile:

Does the Akuma version imply that it works with the Super flash as well? Maybe then Ryu could perform an unblockable Hadoken using Shinkuu? I’m pretty sure that would have been discovered ages ago though.

Just wondering, post one says reversals need to be entered before the opponents ultra flash, so any escape such as backdash, counter super or ultra, etc, needs to actually begin before the opponents ultra starts? Wouldn’t that allow the opponent to just not ultra if you have to ultra or super them first?

Akuma’s super and ultra are special. I know it DOESN’T work with Seth’s super, because the dummy blocked my sonic boom mid-freeze once.

Yes that’s why it’s a mixup.

It would appear that any super that cannot be done at the same time as another super can be used to guardbreak. Akuma and Dan’s supers have this property.

You sure it’s not because it’s a 0 (or 1?) frame super?

Since it has to do with the “flash” I wonder if Sagat can guarantee damage by meaty-ing with a TS and then doing Angry Scar, since that move freezes the screen

Don’t think so, to me, it just looks like it slows down a while.

So far I’ve gotten Seths (About 50% of the time) and with ken vs sagat (Now about 90%)

I feel like kens is the easiest by far, gonna try ken against blanka now.

Hmmm… does this unblockable ultra freeze nonsense also break your charge when inputting at the same time as the ultra?

[media=youtube]RxLLYnWIyyE[/media] here you go (skip to 1:48). I used the FADC because it makes for easier timing (full-screen lp yoga fire, FADC, IAT, ultra). Pretty much useless in a real match though.

Can anyone come up with a set-up?

Oh… Now I understand… A long time ago, I discovered a glitch where the “all block” CPU wouldn’t block if I got 2 ultras to hit from different directions at the same time. I guess it was this same glitch as this.

So when will googly eyed state be added to the wiki?

googly eye state is not the cause unless something EXTREMELY fucked up is happening.

my theory:
the game keeps track of when it is possible to input a block and not input a block. During untechable knockdown the game is not letting you input a block at all. It’s not like a shoryu where you can put it in before you get up and it buffers. You get up and the ultra freeze happens on the frame that you get up and on the same frame that you would need to block the fireball. It eats your block input. I assume there are other situations where this unblockable is theoretically possible but there would be other situations where the game would let you “buffer” blocking.

edit: fuck nevermind i’m wrong the dhalsim setup in that video uses ryu standing without getting knocked down
