c.HP to antiair, but use her command dash to get out of a crossup jump in the neutral.

Huh. I've actually done her command dash before for that reason in a match, but never really thought about how good it is in those situations. Thanks man!

I mainly use it when people jump since it freezes the screen for a second. Activate V-Trigger into anti-air punish is something I don't see a lot of people do for some reason

Also, spacing yourself so that your cr.HP will always work can also be good. I hover at a range where I can still pop them with cr.HP.
It's not the best habit for footsies, but if I'm smelling a panic jump, I'll shimmy back and forth with the intent of staying within the right anti-air range.
Yeah, thats the one I meant. It feels like his overhead is a little slower too.
cr.lp st.mp cr.mk > hk.legs
cr.hp(1 hit) > lk.legs > cr.lp > lk.spinning bird kick
v-trigger stuff:
back.hk anti air > cr.hk juggle
df.mk > cr.lp > cr.mk > hk.legs
a bunch of her stuff changed and isn't possible anymore because her cr.mk is less plus on hit now.

Nice vega I thought you was ryu at first, I'm like he should really stop going ham at vega lol since that claw controls the neutral game.
Sometimes you might want to use it for alpha counters instead depending on who you're fighting or how good/shit your v-trigger is.
Properly spaced standing roundhouse, crouching fierce. down vtrigger works also. You have to space properly for him to anti air, it's not that hard though due to his incredible movement on the ground.

Sounds great. If I had some more time in the training room I could practice the spacing for her cr.HP, but I guess I'll have to wait for the game to come out to really get a handle on it. Thanks as well!
Yup I do the same. Also using it to help with hit confirms.
jump mk air-to-air and his air throw are also useful. I like to buffer for qcf+H when I'm in close and expecting them to try to jump over me (against cornered opponent). jump back RH/HP are also good
Why ? You don't want to see how much they butchered her.
Also, how are we supposed to send hatemail now ?
Many of her beta 1 combos still work aside from CH and VT stuff. Oh and you cant cancel the 2 hit of cr HP anymore
Well look at you mr sourpuss
They should. She and Birdie are already among the game files, so they're ready to be unlocked.
Just in case anyone missed it there was this frame data post on eventhubs earlier.

Also, like Bison, you can use his slide to escape a jump in. I know one of my goals with Bison is to stop trying to block crossup jumpins altogether. Just slide out of that crap and reset the neutral.

Been playing R.Mike, Ken, and Ryu. Honestly it's discouraging me that I'm doing so awful at this game.
got some clean AA baits on this karin
If I'm using Ken I wait for the opponent to mess up and give me a clear opening for a combo, if using Karin, I wait for the moment I'm pressuring the opponent and then I go nuts. With Nash I just use it for a combo if the chance presents itself.
Boo. Why put the character that nobody wanted?

Damn, can't believe I didn't think of this as it gets used to great effect of me all the damn time. I'll give it a shot.
I found a good comparison between the versions. Overall, there's not too many big improvements, but the PC version looks a whole lot clearer.
Yes I'm bit obsessed with this whatever.
I'm really liking Ryu! I need to get used to how his parry works, but he's something familiar from all my time in SFIV! Weird how some of his attacks have different animations when blocked, I haven't seen that with anyone else.

I've lost like 80% of the matches I've played
Something that I came to realize is that you have to look at this game as starting from square one. A bunch of strategies I used in USF4 aren't really effective anymore because it's just a completely different game. So you're probably going to lose a lot but eventually you'll adapt.
I'm FINALLY winning matches with Vega after losing almost nonstop today.
Parry = Parry first hit, then continuously mash parry.

That's pretty much what I've been doing, because I've played the SF4 series for nearly 7 years now. I expected Bison's scissor kick to be a hard knockdown, Ryu's parry to be able to punish a lot more, Ken's medium crossover to be way easier than it is, etc. Plus I usually play on pad, but Dual Shock 4 just doesn't do it for me when it comes to fighters. Waiting on the mad catz one to come out.
