Gotcha…gotta be trying it again when i get home…it will be nice to make FBA scary again…

So on CC sweep, if you time your meaty FBA, you get free damage, right? If I’m not mistaken, they can’t anti-air or jump out, even with pre-jump frames?

So you have an unblockable that can only be beat by throw invincible wake up moves and DPs?

Correct.

Only lk version of barcelona attack though

What about EX FBA?

it is also meaty but you have to delay it a little.

I wouldnt bother with the EX version.

Can you guys link a video to this tech?

^ the problem with that setup is if they recover with a roll back Vega will whiff and will be punishable haha but if they dont know about the punish it is good.

It’s a playlist with a bunch of shit , like 23 vids and not all Vega stuff, but as with anything it’s about knowing your opponent. I play a Mika who always quick rises. I got him with that combo because it was that same set up, but he tried EX Peach and the armor isn’t active til frame three so I got the counter hit lol.

Very nice. It’s all about knowing your opponent’s tendencies. Wakeup EX Peach is just terrible, right? I mean, as long as you time your meaties, they will always get hit. Otherwise, you can block and punish for big damage.

@Myakyo There is a high ranking (11k+ lp) european Ken player you might be interested in running some sets with him so we can maybe get to figure out more about the mu. His id is JF_Atropos

Oh ok ! Ken might be really hard for Vega but I’ll try to play with him and let you know !

I got 17th at the road to Evo spirit zero event, man there were some good ass folk there. I lost to a Gief that I beat before, he upped his game and won the whole tourny. Definitely fun shit. Got beat by a Alex player too. Once they got in the guessing game sucks. I guessed wrong every time LOL.

What version of FBA are you using? Does it even matter?

does different buttons for FBA make a difference? like distance travel or something

different fba strengths have different arcs, pretty easy to see if you USE TRAINING MODE

Everyone knows training mode is only to practice combos noob
