Which characters do the most damage?

No Ibox and her ‘how is this still going my kids just had kids’ and ‘why did they let you bring knives into this competition’ combos? Also Abel is fairly damaging as well and with 2 meters it can get kinda EHHHH

Off the top of my head I have a feeling that E.Ryu is the most damaging, but in terms of consistent moidalizin’ potential I’d give it to Viper.

Vipers do complex motions. Sakuras do 1-framers. Hard but not impractical by any means.

Evil Ryu, Makoto, Viper, Sakura and Dudley. These characters can just explode and ruin your day.

I wasn’t saying it was hard or impractical. I was pointing out I do alot less work for around the same amount of damage. Not to mention how many 1 frame links are actually in the combo. I hit 2 buttons you hit around 6 or 7 and have to worry about the strict timing of the presses.

Makoto?

Yeah, what of it? She can absolutely explode.

Yeah that Cody combo is easier, but it’s like 360 dmg? Not quite the same as 414 or 444 on certain chars. That’s a big ass difference, if you ask me.

This is true. You can never count this character out especially when Karakusa into U1 is around. She doesn’t do the highest raw damage, but it’s always a good chunk of health when she hits.

Hmm havent seen enough Maks to see this in action lol

360 on certain 380 on certain chars. It is a big difference considering only damage. But factor in practicability of said combo and Cody’s is better. and I only tested one random combo, I’m sure I could probably get some 2 meter ones with 450+ which would still be much easier to execute.

…That’s just unfair…

Yo, if Ibukis can consistently do unplinkable 1-frame loops, then I think a 1-frame plink followed by a 2-frame link is plenty practical.

Evil Ryu for meterless. He can do 321 off of a crouching short with no meter. He can do 388 off of a crouching mid, and over 400 with a jump in with no meter.

Grapplers do a lot in one move with their slam. Characters like this have to work to get in.

Sagat does decent damage, but theres a lot of other people in sf4 that hit harder than him.

That’s true if we’re just talking about abare, but if we’re talking max practical damage, his FADC ultra is up there imo.

El Fuerte.

Counterhit EX Guacamole to close HK to HK/Ex Guacamole.

Makoto.
She can obliterate people like no one else.

Cody. See Momochi highlights.

Ken.
You just ate JHK close HK xx ex Tatsu, now Take your pick from throw/ex DP/crMK xx ex Tatsu.

Hilariously easy damage for Ken.

Ono.
he does the most damage.

DATSALAI :slight_smile:

yeah, if you look at makotos regular non corner combos by themselves, it isnt that impressive

but then you gotta think, its like stray hit, 220, press button, in corner and juggled for half life total. then stunned by a jab. killed by post stun combo. gg

mr simtang’s list is pretty good. he left dudley off tho
