Vega Q&A: Ask simple questions here!

much obliged, and thanks for the video reference.

Need some help with meaties, anyoneeee? I suck with’m, any help is appreciated

Is there a section about preasureing an oponent when you get the knockdown. Mainly how to deal with backdashers?

Here read the whole thread, well not the whole but the first one. I put some later on the thread page 1 and Alex listed some options as well. do not be intimidated by DP FADC Ultra! That is low level play use and abuse this.

Just a question that is most likely simplistic, just want some clarification.

Other than situational St.FK, does Vega have any other good AA’s? I haven’t messed around to much with his neutral/forward-back jumping normals but yeah.

jb.mp
jb.hp
nj.mk
nj.hk
nj.mp
nj.hp
cr.hp
air throw
lk st
EX ST for auto correct crossups some times

yeah, he has a shitload, shame none are as definitive as guile’s cr.hp lol

That is a lot more than I thought O_o

Thanks for the help sir, I hardly get Cr.HP or LK ST to work much. It either doesn’t hit, or trades in their favor. But I’ll start experimenting with these in future matches and see what works for me the best, I appreciate it.

Think I will hit up the match-up thread and see what the community came up with for fucking up Balrog.

Cr.Hp is best used after retarded jump ins from afar, or you can dash back from a close jump in and hit them with it

I have the most sucess with lk ST against people with floaty jump-ins like chun and other vegas

stand by your ex bar at all times during this matchup and counter poke. st.hk is your friend in this matchup

remember basic stuff about the matchup though, like his 3 frame jab , options after TAP and the fact that low meaties beat headbutt etc

I pretty much stuck to St. FK to stuff ex dashes, St. MK for poking, and being patient to hit confirm Cr. MP/MK into EX FBA.

Still, once he has ultra he just needs to get one jab in to start the train of death, then I am cornered and got my work cut out for me. Just a rather annoying fight but thank you for the advice once again.

hey question and think about it.

3 frame cr.lp or 3 frame cr.lk.

I say cr.lk. It makes oppenents block low. Its faster than cr.mk. Should link to cr.lp. When opponents block low they crouch tech making it easier to grab. Creates a better high low mix up with out Cosmic Heel. Makes PoM more usable.

Shout outs to Kouryuu for suggesting this. Mad ideas and would be a godlike buff. I personally would prefer this over 6 frame cr.mk.

cr.lk

But it’s not gonna happen :frowning:

Can someone tell me how to do the EX Barcelona attack into the two hit claw attack?
(It’s the move seen at 1:17 in this video: [media=youtube]Va5_F-w7Drs[/media])

hello my fellow vega players plz help me out with this too…im tired of getting punished up by focus attacks

If I recall, you have to hit the punch button with the stick in a neutral position, I’ll verify that later today, but it should be a starting point. @_@

^ Line up right over them and like GafScale said hit punch with the stick in neutral.

Thanks Guys It Works…Now I got All the vega basics down time to claw it up

**Do you really have all the basics down?

BTW how annoying is this font type

I should use it just to be able to find my posts easier on SRK.

  • What exactly is the timing/setup for Vega’s crossup walldive? I heard it mentioned a few times but I haven’t heard the particulars about it. Also is it just me or does Cr fwd, cr str xx Ex Walldive wiff on a crouching Rose?

That font type isn’t too bad it’s just the letters are a bit big. *

yEAH, iTS rATHER aLL rIGHT. i dID pOST lIKE tHIS iN oNE oF tHE sssf4 mAIN tHREADS. pEOPLE gET sO mAD fOR nO rEASON. i wASNT eVEN tROLLING, i jUST wANT tO tYPE lIKE tHIS. pEOPLE jUST bITCH tO fUCKING mUCH oN tHIS wEBSITE.

there is no timing. You could wait last minuter and just as your above their head you go behind them. And as for your combo, it whiff on a lot of people. Like crouching Ryu after max range blocked sweep.

Did you guys also know that you do a EX FBA combo and drop it against someone like Wiyyu Dhalsim Rose or Juri who can duck under it, if you do a late EX Claw swipe you will hit them out of if?

cr.lp, no question about it. Making cr.lp into 2f links = too godlike. I’d take that over a 3f low attack that only links on counterhit any day.
