I bend/fold my pinky - ball it up and hit them all together.
I’m gonna be using Vega up until SBO Qualifiers, then it’s on to Bison forever. 2 weeks away, so it’s definitely grind time. Wait for SBO results and vids, I’m going into secret training as of today to perfect every aspect of Vega’s game. :nunchuck:
Haha I too ended up dropping Vega for Bison. 7 months of Vega down the drain for me =[
What is Vega saying in his Taunt 5? Beautiful day, or Beautiful Dance?
I believe it’s beautiful death
Maybe he enunciates better when his mask is off, will test and report back.
I’ve been wondering, does the mask give you a “defense” bonus when it’s on and you go back to normal when it’s off or do you take the same amount of damage as everyone else with it on and more when it’s off?
It doesn’t really matter, does it? That’s a bit chicken-and-egg. 
1000 hp with mask on (normal, average, regular-people health). 750 hp without mask (slightly tougher than Seth and chihuahuas).
Oh yeah it’s a health pool thing, not a reduction of incoming damage. Durr. The difference would have been that having it on would be more of a bonus, where as in reality having it off is a punishment. I know it’s pretty close to being the same thing.
ANother thing tho,. Pardon me i only play vega once in a radioactively orange moon.
Dp+P = claw throw , ths serves no purpose . U get less range and on top of that 10% less damage.
However Dp+PPP = mask throw , now you gain 10% attack power , this could be usefull if your down to no life and full bars. Ditch the mask , become psychic so that the ultra will hit ( without mask ) youll pull out 500pts worth f damage baby. ( and recieve more , but if your going for a comeback , this is the way to do it.
That 10% is only on the next move after the throw, which is really hard to remember because it’s like extra worthless.
The only use of this is that you can lose your claw on your own terms and go get it to reset the “claw damage”.
I’ve had some success using SHC (non-ex) as a wanna-be AA. Usually it catches them as their just about to jump or are just about to land, anyone feel the same about it? Or is the regular SHC practically useless?
The only non-EX SHC I typically use is jab SHC (the high one) against people who I know will jump-back normal when I go to the wall, and in this case it does work as a REALLY STUPIDLY RISKY anti-air. But since I rarely go to the wall without a knockdown or to avoid a fireball, that’s basically a non-issue.
Regular SHC? I don’t think it’s particularly useful. Once in a blue moon as a cross-up, I guess. The risk completely outweighs the tiny damage you just might get out of it.
Really, wean yourself off the wall. Walldives have their place, and EX Walldive is excellent as a poke and in combos, but SF4 Vega wins matches on the ground.
I figured as much, I was wondering what we could do with it since it seems useless, and since I tend to hit people out of their air moves I thought it’d be good to ask for opinions.
I’m just a Vega who loves risk taking anyway 
I use HP SHC against the wall behind my opponent all the time at the very first of the match to try and cross-up. It used to work nearly every time but now that I’m getting higher up in Championship people are able to block on reaction.
Ken’s jb. RH hitting you out of SHC. Good stuff.
I really can’t find an use for SHC right now, it’s -16 on hit and just too risky in general. Your opponent can also FA it.
I got two questions. Well, its technically just one questions, but for two different attacks.
How do you hit twice with the EX Barcelona attack or Multiple slashes with the Super? I’m not talking about hitting them with the wall jump reaction, I’m talking about two hits during the actual Barcelona slash (and more with the Super).
I can’t figure it out. I’ve tried pressing multiple buttons, timing it differently, attacking different areas… Can anyone help me with this?
It’s embarrassing not knowing since Vega is my main. That’s about the only thing I don’t know how to do effectively and consistently.
Sorry if it’s been asked before and I missed it. Any help is much appreciated.

do the ex barcelona super and when you get near the opponent release forward/backward and press the punch button,it can also be done to an airborne opponent,but that would be pretty pointless since it does less damage compared to an izuna drop
You pretty much have to be DIRECTLY above them. If you do it right then it should like like he’s trying to pry their head open.
