They both said it in a Japanese short interview some time ago. whatever Hagejin doesn’t like SFV in general and Itabashi switched to Birdie. As far as I know, even Justin Wong said that Zangief is one of the weakest if not the weakest character at the moment. I agree that Laura and Zangief are not the strongest character but hwatever…
At WNF’s I saw Snake land a crush counter st.hp then headbutt-cr.mp into ca but I can’t get it to land in training. The ca always whiffs cause it’s out of range. Am I missing something?
Was wondering that too. The Cr.MP pushes me too far away.
It’s the timing, you need to do super immediately after c.mp connects.
This. You have to do it superfast. Heres a mini video i made, hope it helps:

What i dont understand about snake eyez gameplay at wnf is why does he f dash after he lands a v trigger (before jump ex spd)
Heres a distance comparison between dash before j ex spd and nodash before ex spd. No difference at all.
Yep. You negative edge it. Hit and hold cr.MP, churn the butter, release MP, and boom…combo into CA. Easy Peasy.
To push them a bit closer to corner.
Im an idiot lol. Thanks!
Since v reversal is plus 3 on hit is it possible to combo CA?
Really couldn’t give two fucks. He has his opinion I have mine. Then again he also said this

Confirmation bias, it’s a shitty thing.
I can’t find frame data on parried attacks. After a parried attack do we always have time for a spd? Are we at least at +4 for a jab combo?
No, it depends on the normal you’re parrying. You’re usually somewhere around even when u parry a medium attack, very positive when parrying a heavy, and punishable when parrying lights. But again, it depends on the normals and special you’re parrying. The more recovery it has the more advantage u get for parrying it.
On stick, you reset to neutral and then do it.
OH Sorry. I mis-read. Walk forward after the CC
Can tell you from experience every time I play someone on the PS4 I drop frames. It’s been an annoying PC experience.
Hello guys, I’m just new here, but I read the 1st and the last 5 pages. I have big problems with buffering 720 into f.HP,c.Mp into CA, I play with the Hori FC(PS4/PS3/PC) fighting pad (not the FC4pro, the newer one).
I’m always too slow for it, it rarely connects, any tips please?
Edit
Oh and any tips how I can get the 100 wins in survival hell mode with Zangief?
not really tech per se but I tried doing half circle back LP+LK and would just do normal throw but when I end the half circle back at up back it would do RBG. just thought it was a funny thing to bring up. any thoughts on why this happens?
Oh right; You can Trigger to punish projectiles… Kind of a waste of V Trigger? but good to close out a round (or even steal one)
All I can say is you have to do his CA really fast in order to combo it in from c. MP. It’s worth learning, however. Same goes for c. LK, c. LK xx CA. It’s just worth having in mind in case you land a stray hit.
I wouldn’t necessarily call it a waste. You can get some pretty solid damage from this and even get a CA.
I did some testing, and whenever Zangief does a lvl1 VT he’s -5 on block.
