Damn, it would’ve been nice if Manny waited until maybe the 5th round to knock Hatton’s ass out. I really wanted to get my fucking money’s worth. But at least, he won with style. For almost a second there, I thought that English dude died.
That shit looked like Sagat vs Dan, imbalanced as hell.

Trivia Question: Say your dealing with a blanka or honda spamming headbutt or ball and your a character who doesn’t have a projectile and your best jab turns into a hundred hand slap which the ball and headbutt have a tendency to hit through. What do you do?
As a Balrog player, your best option is to keep a hard offense with those types of players. Gotta stay in their face and keep the pressure on them with low jabs. Mix it up with either a charge/forward move or grab. Keep them guessing.
If they’re spamming it to the point of predictability, just jump back. It’ll miss and you’ll get a free sweep/combo/throw/ultra depending on the character and spacing.
It’s worst if you’re in the very back and they do a fierce; you jump back, he covers range and forgets that even fierce ends, and you’re right next to him.
Best way to deal with this is: At the selection screen, choose SAGAT.

If you’re using Gen (that’s what I’m assuming) a blocked Blanka ball can be punished by lots of things…get meter for Gen’s dashing Ultra or Super and punish, possibly a LP roll or EX roll would work. If nothing else, just block and dash in to put the pressure on him and kill his distance zoning game; go for some block strings, throws, or crossups. Gen in Crane stance has a fast walk speed (12) and good dash forward distance (1.5) putting him high on the player list. For Honda…crossup owns him in my experience. Just get in range, pin him against the back wall, and crossup in to combo then keep the pressure on him. Mike’s jump back attack advice is also very effective, just throw off their timing so they don’t just keep hitting you. EX Roll may work, especially on block, to either punish or get in range for a crossup or throw. Heck, even some shenanigan wall dive action may help. Spamming balls and headbutts isn’t invincible, it just seems that way when you’ve been hit by it 2-3 times in a row, which seems to happen a lot online due to input lag when walking forward then needing to instantly block. Frustrating, fo sho.
So I just got owned by a Sagat doing almost nothing but tiger shots and some retarded ass jumping elbow attack that hit me against any jumping attack I did. Fuck sagat.
EX Roll goes through fireballs.
