Hey everyone! I am new to USF4. I bought the game litearally 3 days ago after watching maximillian, snake eyez, and Excellent Adventures online for the last 3 years. I decided to use Zangief because of Eyez and so far so good. That was until I ran into a Guy player who was able to keep me out by simple heavy and medium kicks. That roundhouse of his is far and kept me out by knocking me in the head.
How would you fight guy? How would you get in on him when he does those kicks? Thank you
Quite a few characters have a standing roundhouse that’s pretty good at keeping Gief out. Two things that I’ve found for this:
Dance just outside of their roundhouse range, and poke os green hand. I like c.jab and s.short for this. If you counter hit their attack, then the green hand will come out and close the distance.
Standing strong. Use this liberally. A few successful chops will make them think twice about spamming the same poke.
