I’ll reiterate what I said a while back; she’s adorably cute and has fun combos :bgrin:
She is extremely fun to use, getting inside people’s heads is also fun with her combos. I love her U2!!
-snip-
wrong thread.
she hasn’t been nerfed yet lol
She is so cool when she’s walking under air hadoken of a coward Akuma… 
Her simple and cliche character design is what actually makes her so freaking great!.. they don’t half ass what she is… and play on the school girl thing but only halfway sink their teeth into… no Sakura is a school girl who was inspired by a fight seen with Ryu… instantly became infatuated with fighting. Ever since she wants to be a street fighter and to be the best. Also wants to be taught by Ryu. She is pure love, innocence, and a whole lot of ingenious bad ass’ness! She just IS! She is pure fun to … well look at, to play, to watch, to listen to!. It’s all great.
Amazing fan service character that knows what it is and delivers nicely. She has the nicest legs and body in the game… prettiest face… some of the fanciest looking combos… best Costumes in the game including the new one coming out. Greatest Smile by far!
And If Capcom was smart they would look at her character seeing as she has been considered to be as deadly as Killer Bee and is self taught. When she has experience under her belt and is properly trained by Ryu she should be one of the strongest characters in SF if you ask me. I mean come on… teaching herself the Hadoken… SHINKU Hadoken at that!. Impressive…
btw if anybody loves Sakura and has not read the Ganburu (sp?) Manga of hers or the Udon Legends series of her is really missing out. It’ll be sure to make you love Sakura way more then you already do.
my two cents… Love Sakura!
Because…it’s Sakura baby!
I thought we already established this: She wears stretchy tight red bloomers. nuff said.
I like beating people up with a school girl.
She’s the best combo character in the game!
fun and easy combos… sorta like Ken, i like using both.
Easy combos huh? lk shunpu is still a prob. Feels like i have to wait an eternity. Hitting shou fadc st. hp more than fcking lk.st hp.
She’s fun to use, and has been one of my favorite characters since Alpha 2. It’s like a tradition for me, I second Sakura in every Street Fighter I see her in. Right after I main Ryu.
It’s because I understand her obsession with ryu. Isn’t he dreamy?
- best anti-air in the game IMO with c.hp
- best punishes in the game IMO (in terms of damage/stun)
- lots of good frame traps
thats a winning formula if your goal is to dominate scrubs
The fuck if I know man in the last 24 hours I can’t stop playing this bitch. GOD SHE SUUUUUUX! But I can’t stop playing her.
She doesn’t want to fight man, she allegedly got raped in an alley and now she wants to protect the vag by chuckin plasma. :nunchuck:
What are her frame traps? Teach me them.
wouldnt her lk tatsus be a frame trap on block? i catch a ton of people trying to push buttons (shit even i do it sometimes in mirrors) after i hit a lk tatsu on a blocking opponent.
what about a fully charged hado after knocking down an opponent in the corner?
lk.tatsu is not a frametrap because you are at +0 frame advantage. ex version can give you a frame trap on block through
I like sakura’s frame traps because they all lead to huge damage. it makes the risk worthwhile IMO. she has so many 3/4/5 frame moves that combo into lk.tatsu (which is safe and can hitconfirm into BnB)
- f+mk (+2 on hit, overhead) -> c.hp -> lk.tatsu ->
- c.lk -> c.lp (+3 on block) -> c.hp -> lk.tatsu ->
- c.lk -> c.lp -> c.mk -> hitconfirm fp.shouken -> FADC BnB
- on untechable wakeup -> charged hadoken -> c.mk -> hitconfirm fp.shouken -> FADC BnB
- s.lp -> walk forward -> s.hp -> lk.tatsu ->
- s.lp (+4/+7) -> c.mp (5 frame startup) -> lk.tatsu ->
theres obviously a lot more but the whole point is that you combo pretty much anything into lk.tatsu
