Like it matters what nerd term you give it. You do it till your opponent is stunned and after that you procede till he is dead. I was always wondering why so many "good" players completely abandon Fuertes move set and only do his infinite (omg loop!) and now after actually feeling it I can understand.
Overall this evening showed me why I stopped playing him in the first place. So many simple things completely screw him over that I have to wonder if he was even designed for this game. But apparently all this is justified with the RSF.....
First off yes, it's an infinite, but it's not going to just magically get you a stun. There's diminishing returns after the 4th hit in both stun and damage. And EVEN THEN you'd have to do his RSF like 6 times just to match the damage output that Sagat does on a jump in combo. Also, after about 5 or so hits, it does less than half the damage of the jab.
Second off, "good" Fuerte players don't abandon his move set to use RSF. RSF is mainly either a punisher off FA crumple or a crossup. No one just goes HEY I'm going to hit you with a RSF now lolz k.
With that being said, is it an infinite? Yes. Does it do anywhere near the amount of damage other characters can do off of even easier shit? (Rufus' j. hk into ex strike comes to mind) Absolutely not. Elf already has barely any life and only a few tools to begin with, RSF just gives him the ability to do some significant damage (even though it's still not as much as other characters.)
Trust me, you're making it out to be a lot worse than you think it is.
edit - Just have to stress that after you RSF about 5 times, it pretty much stops doing damage. Also the execution difficulty between doing RSF 5 times and a Sagat j. fk, cr. mk, fp upper is ridiculous and sagat still does more damage. IF you wanna bitch, target Sagat lol!
