We already defeated Sheng-long! The Akuma Video Thread

The fireball has to be predicted, you can’t simply do it when you see it (especially in Sagat’s case). It’s a bit tricky, but if someone’s attempting to lock you down with projectiles it shouldn’t be too difficult.

Here’s 2 sets of matches I had with JR Rodriguez. Thought you guys would be interested.

Someone let me know how Fujino missed his cr. MK @ 1:22

Bad programming?

wow. he totally whiffed it when it should have clearly hit. odd.

I guess it’s harder to get between Viper’s legs than everyone thought. Weird.

SFIV has wonky hit boxes. 3S had better hit detection than this game. I guess it’s the 3d thing.

It’s still a 2D game, just a 3D background. There are no moves that put you “into the background” a la GG Isuka, that video is just crazy strange.

I heard that halfway through development Capcom realized that 3d hit boxes weren’t going to work, so they switched to 2d ones. Obviously they didn’t have enough time to comprehensively test the 2d hit boxes, hence the wonkyness.

Some new match videos from me:

vs. Gambit1986 (Ryu) (8 Matches)

Gambit just got his arcade stick, so he’s still playing a little wonky because of it. [media=youtube]N0_G5bR0r9Q&feature=PlayList&p=A61C9D4B869DFEB3&index=2"]Match 3 and [are cool, I catch him with demon when he tatsu’s. Fun mindgames.

[URL=“http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=F3580EA4AF39A1C9”]vs. EightBitWarrior (Dhalsim)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJaOdTsHUW8&feature=PlayList&p=A61C9D4B869DFEB3&index=5"[/media) (16 Matches)

EightBit totally wasn’t into the matches, and was just doing it to pass time. We still had some nice fights though regardless. I really like the [media=youtube]61OgSdwCnJQ&feature=PlayList&p=F3580EA4AF39A1C9&index=1"]2nd Match, fast-paced, crazy stuff happens. [URL=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uN8DhsOJfU&feature=PlayList&p=F3580EA4AF39A1C9&index=15”[/media] he picks viper for no reason, and I practice my mean elbow drop finish. Haha.

I have experienced the same thing against Viper just last Thursday. I say a couple of crouching attacks whiff against moves that had no invincibility.

moves that you THOUGHT had no invincibility
crouch has 60 frames of startup invicibility with viper

hahah.

How do you do the low forward demon? just buffer the inputs after it normally?

Pretty much, split it into three parts

  1. :d: + :lp: + :mk:

  2. :d: + :lp: + :mk:

  3. :db: + :lk: + :hp:

Or if you’re already in :db:…

  1. :db: + :lp: + :mk:

  2. :db: + :lp: + :mk:

  3. :ub: + :lk: + :hp:

Lord I’d like to play you some time I like the akuma mirror match compared to everybody else I need to work on it since I want to surpass the local akuma player near me.
