Ok guys here is a couple of videos of me playing Dudley. I just started to seriously play him about 3 days ago, I have always liked him since super came out but didnt play him because i was new to SF and felt I should start with a easier character such as ryu. Now that a year has passed I feel I have some better knowledge of the gm and finally want to break away from shoto characters. I would like for you guys to critique my videos and say whatever u feel needs to be said to help me get better with Dud. Btw if you notice some random things in the video its because my controller is fucked right now and I am also having a tough time consistently doing the half circle motion on the dpad. Thanks in advance.
Only watched one video.
The only way you get your knockdowns is by grabbing.
you have no anti air game
no footsie game
all you is stay full screen and move from side to side (lol no footsies no point)

HIT CONFIRMS
So, besides EVERYTHING Thirtyfour’s already said countless times (Hit confirms, better punish combos, learn footsies, etc.), I know that I was too cute trying to fish for Rolling Thunder. One thing I do like in this game though, is how I stopped getting into situations where I got tunnel vision and started mashing for wins.
well there is lots of fundamental stuff you could improve on, anti airs (you did like 3, and he jumped like 100 times), he also swept whenever you were close, which you just blocked, you can actually focus for free combos, he did this like 5 times in a row just to make sure you knew it was coming too.
probably don’t lunge forward randomly with duck straight, people can punish you if they jump at you to close distance, which some people do.
every time you landed a jump in hk, which was like everytime you jumped in, (i don’t know why he didnt block), but you didnt go into another st.hk > combo of your choice, I think you tried once but got cr.hk
needs more roses when playing ryu’s that throw fireballs so close and then just jump on you.
You tried to fish for Rolling Thunder, but you didn’t punish blocked sweeps with Rolling Thunder. The reason why I now pick Rolling Thunder over Corkscrew Cross against Shotos that aren’t Akuma and Gouken is because a blocked sweep = free ultra.
Another thing is stop jumping. You can beat Ryu on the ground and you should be beating him on the ground. If you anti-air properly, know how to gain ground on him, and know how to footsie, you don’t need to jump. Good players will mess you up for jumping too much and jumping in general is a bad habit in this game. Dudley doesn’t have dive kicks to save his ass from everything.
As funny as it is I would drop the Renegade shenanigans Ahh some good laughs.
My suggestion is to learn some combos…I didnt really see any except an attempt at standing Light punch X2 Heavy Punch.
Also when you see a focus attack being charged especially after being hit by a level 3 one previously in the game, dont just stand there and take them on the chin. As much as Dudley can take blows to the chin they hurt! Yer you may have “renegaded” 1 before but not every one will give you free ultras like that.
Also I think you have learnt something from tossing those roses that close when someone has super
looking for a good dudley player for mentor… I play dudley and i know the small basic trial combos but anything advance after that im not really familiar with though i watch quick vid tutorial i stillam not able to properly move with him.
