What makes Hakan scary is that nobody is scared of him. Next thing ya know you're oily as fuck and being shot out his ass.

One time while playing Panda's Hakan in a tournament, I kept falling for his air counter s.fp. Don't know why I kept thinking it was a lucky hit but he took off so much of my health because I kept trying to dive kick him. s.fp look so slow that I was surprised it worked for him. Also Hakan look like he wouldn't harm a fly. Hakan is a better comedian than Dan.

Who would win then? Mago, Momochi? Daigo surely is still one of favourites to win it.
Though I wonder how much the Evo double game / double elimination format will still bring out the best. Luck still plays a big part in street fighter (more than say, tennis), and given the small differences between the top players, Evo Japan might still have a surprise winners. As good as Daigo (or insert other top player here) is, he doesn't dominate his field much like Federer did in tennis (to keep up the analogy). It's the nature of the game.

He probably has plenty of knowledge. It just seems to me that Sim is a tough matchup for him in general, whether it be ST (Cole, Gian, KKY etc), A3, or SF4 (Iyo, Sabin, Mochi). Sabin said it was even 5.5:4.5 in Sim's favour, I believe. If Ryu can't get in, he's toast. And to get in, he more or less has to play a guessing game.

A good Ryu will use mp DP so when it trades you'll get knocked in the air and it will reset the situation, which means ryu's favor. I think Shoto>Dudley Matchups are 4.5-5.5 in Shoto favor except for Akuma simply because how good crouching forward is.
You can punish backdash with a meaty step straight which can link into all kinds of crazy nonsense.

GGs to jam, alc, and sti taker.
Sorry I didn't play more taker, but our connection just isn't very good. Anytime I went for a df.HK -> throw it was a free combo for you and anytime I tried to do wake-up mix-up shenanigans that started with something meaty it was a free throw for you. :\
And jam, you really need to get over your throw obsession. :lol You're the only person I've ever seen play Juri like she's Zangief. Knockdown -> repeated obvious cross-ups until opponent wakes -> throw. You're just leaving way too much damage on the table. So many times you'll hit with a jump in then a crouching light attack and then just throw. I end up getting hit by a lot of them since it's just something you don't expect, but as you can see, it isn't enough to consistently win matches, just enough to squeak out a win or two here and there. I also think you're playing a bit too reactionary. Everything you're doing seems to be a counter to me as opposed to an offense you want to apply on me. There was a round when you started using that one kick that would stuff all my moves, but it was only working because you were counting on me relentlessly rushing in. And I stupidly was which is why it hit so much the first round you used it. But then you kept using it and it was easy to whiff punish. But that move and the way you were using it is what I mean by playing too reactionary as opposed to dictating your own offense. That style is also why there were times I could walk up and throw you a bunch of times in a row. :lol

Only if I could learn how to do the ultra consistently...
You don't have to do it fast, and you don't have to do a full 720, just go a bit past the 360. It's actually really easy if you think about what you're doing and get beyond the butter churn stage. Just spin the stick then hit the button at the right spot.

Yeah, Panda stepped his game up hard with Hakan. Glad he never gave up on him. I'm more afraid of his Hakan than that scruby reset princess Sakura. Shit, the Tournament we had a few days ago was very classic. Floyd's U2 with Akuma miss Panda's Hakan while he was dizzy, and Panda U1 his ass FTW. Paid's of being oily.....the_log_ride said:

At least you can back dash to escape everything. I'm the one getting hit by what should be unsafe jump-ins and millions of unblocable hazanshus. :lol Oh, and that cr.lk x2/3 -> ex legs -> ultra that cost me a round was BS, it shouldn't have come out between my df.HK -> throw.

Finally decided to sink some hard practice into the Fightpad I got a while back. Night and day difference from the 360 controller.
For the first time, I consistently pulled off Chun's U1 on both sides and when I didn't, it was because I hit the wrong button. I feel like He-Man right now...

Is Sako-Makoto worth watching? I need some anti-Vega tech but apparently these weren't his best games?

he starts weak, adapts, then just styles all over Makoto. I found it really intersting to watch as a (low-quality) cammy player.Killa Sasa said:

jlai is also a really good Rose player.arstal said:
Which reminds me that I need to play him a lot more, because the winner of the last ATL Revivals was a Rose player, and I need all the experience I can get.

As a peanut gallery Hakan user on GAF, I like where this thread is going. I've almost never used his U1 because frankly I have more fun with the second one, seeing how many attacks try and fail to beat it keeps me playing the guy.
I have seen *one* thing beat his U2 that I thought would... Bison's U1. I'll run some more tests on it but the Psycho Crusher at the end nailed me when I thought it'd oil him up but good.

if he was far enough for the double scissors to whiff and you immediately ultrad, you might have just ran out of time.explodet said:
