He didn't go into the command throw, though. I've been dying for some setups :-(

Watch out though, I was wrong on two things:
1. EX Chicken Wing eats fireballs for breakfast and is great for closing distance and punishment. LK Chicken Wing is great for getting past fireballs at fullscreen.
2. Do the first two rekkas, not just the first. Make the second one lp if they block and they won't be able to uppercut you because of the extra distance.

Damn you. That's probably the best combo I've seen with Ryu.
I can't even get a freakin DP FADC into Ultra with my Ryu.
Can you write what you did in the video? How many times did you use the focus attack? I thought it could only be used once per combo.
Is a combo like that possible using a regular controller? How much am I hindering myself by not buying a joystick?

El Fuerte's Super beats hits and projectiles on start frames, it starts at different distances, lk = short/fast, mk = mid/slower, hk = further/slowest.

O man I was so close to losing to this shitty turtle Ryu and with like 10% health got out a 2x MP air combo into ultra with Bison to win it. Destroyed him in the last one. I hate losing to players that are bad because I assume most players are good and don't do dumb wake up shit. Then I eat it and takes %20 of my health.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. I have carpal tunnel in my left hand and I'm doing this all with a pad so it's a huge accomplishment for me.
The damage scaling is pretty bad so yeah. In a real game, it's just best to do regular FADC into Ultra for the most damage and worth. I made a chart citing various combos and ways and how much damage they do but I don't have it in front of me.
You can't do it in a real game. It's just for me to practice my execution and I'm really bored today since I took work off and nobody is around. You can take out the EX Shoryu and add an EX fireball into Ultra and it can be done in an actual game. Having the EX shoryu means you have to FADC afterwards and it takes two bars. But whether you would want to or not is the question since the whole damage scaling thing comes into play.
All I did was focus attack, dash into forward fierce, down fierce, fireball, FADC, dash into crouching medium kick into EX tatsu, EX Shoryu, FADC into Ultra.
And yes I am doing this with a pad. The madcatz pad. I suck with a joystick at the moment. :lol
Oh yeah.
I made a Ken one too! Check it out guys.

1. Expand my matchup knowledge.
2. Stop being stupidly aggressive (but it's too much fun!)
3. Stop messing up the timing for ex Hyaku > Ultra.

What's considered stupidly aggressive? I find it hard to not be aggressive. Whenever I give my opponent a little bit of space, I usually will pay for it.

I have very little trouble with Balrogs. My jump ins usually go over the headbutt for some reason. Maybe they're using heavy punch? Not sure, but usually Balrogs for me is a free win.

I think it's because you're playing bad Balrogs.
So I think I did some good tonight. One of my favorite things to do when playing the 360 version is to plug in a headset after the match has started, so the other guy has idea I am listening in and can communicate.
Most of today was spent trying (and doing horribly!) to get better with Sakura and Dan, but also there was some Rose. Anyway, for this particular match, I felt like going back to my main, Chun. My opponent is Boxer, and spends most of the match trying, failing, to turtle. I just keep walking up to him and either throw him or flip over him and go into EX lightning legs or axe kick. He's trash talking a bit and making stupid quips, but I stay silent until the match is over, when he's still running his mouth, I cut him off with the cheesiest-sounding "DAMN, YOU FUCKING SUCK!!" voice I can muster.
He comes up again in Championship mode, and this time, he stays quiet. I know he's still got his mic on, because I can hear him breathing. After quickly dispatching him the same way, this time I say "No trash talking this time? All right, you're learning!"
From that point on, every couple of matches, I'd get a challenge but the other guy would quickly disconnect. I WONDER WHO THAT COULD HAVE BEEN? :lol
On a side note, what is with the high number of shit players with 10,000+ CP now? The guy I was talking about had 14,000+ points. I'm still low and only around 4,000 on 360 and 3,000 on PS3. :lol
Anyway, if anyone's up for some player matches, hit me up at lyte edge (360) and/or lyteedge (PS3). I wanna get better with Sakura and Dan!

Could be. Most of them seem to do exactly what every good Balrog does though. I think the big difference is that they either don't know how I play, or I play well against them.

The thing is, good Balrogs won't headbutt on an obvious crossup. They usually opt for zoning and AA with normals.

Hey Galactic or Find, could you send me an invite to SFIV GAFchat?
I was finally able to unlock all of the console characters on PS3 SFIV (for the second...wait fourth time). Now, I need some colors. I'm going to go and see if I can do the Kadey combos.

Yeah, I tried this on my TE and wasn't able to do it. I can probably execute it on pad (but am trying to stay away from using them). My big problem is just the tap, tap, tap of FADC from the fireballs into the next series of moves.
They're both great combos. Impractical during combat but pretty.
With Abel I know exactly what I need to do, other characters less so. It's kinda bizarre going from soundly beating you when you picked Akuma to being soundly beaten when you pick Ryu the match after.Solune said:
GGs to Zissou too, my complete ignorance of the Blanka matchup showing heavily. Only won when I decided to OG SF2 it, but that didn't work for long.

Hey Hikotage, ggs. Laggy, but surprisingly playable for one bar.
I've been trying to figure out how to play gouken lately, but I think I have a long road ahead of me :lol
Lag might have been messing up the timing, but you should be able to get a free ultra with chun after a blocked ball; there were a couple times there where I thought I was going to eat it hard, but nothing came. Also, Chun's low roundhouse will stuff a lot of blanka's pokes at the right range and beat electricity, so throw that out more against blankas you run across. Thanks again for the matches.

I can do them on my TE stick but it has to be on the 2p side and even then, it's not as consistent as I can with a pad. All those thousands of hours of playing fighters on a pad since SF2 is a little unfair compared to not even two months worth of playing on a stick.
I'll keep trying though.
I think I'm going to make a video for every character now. And I need ideas.

I have the same execution issues. I finished all but two of the trial combos and mess around with others in training using a Saturn or Fight Pad but things take a turn for the worse with the stick. But I'm a lot better than I was say last fall when I tried a HRAP and was like wtf and then put it back in the box.
And I think doing ultras and what not is easier on the TE because of the button layout and finger action.
The first guy to beat me in the South Florida tourney was this guy named Lexi who was using a DS3 and a white t-shirt (on his thumb). So there's nothing wrong with pad warriors. You have to go with what's comfortable.
gibration said:I like the song
I like watching combo videos.
I'll make more when I have time.
For me the problem is the wide range of movement I have to do. My hands are small to begin with. The TE stick is really big and I have to maneuver my hands a whole lot more. With a pad, all it does is stay in my lap and I use three fingers like a piano. I am really used to playing like that. My execution is way off during actual games and people whom I can normally beat give me trouble. Sometimes I want to just use a pad but it won't help me get better if I resort to doing that.

Umm...why not? If Daigo can be psychic, so can I...syke.
You're right, which is why I only use a stick now. I won't lie I think the form factor of the SE is better in a living room (lap). A TE on a base is great but I hate it on my coffee table.
Perhaps we can play Miss Kadey.

Awesome I've never tried Tetris with a stick.
We should Tetris DS if you have that though! =p
Sorry to pandaofthebamboo, don't know your Gaf tag.
Some sort of PSN signing me off and not letting me back in.

Due to all the ass whoopings I've gotten in sf4, I can now perform a cross up as an actual strategy mid match along with an FADC ultra. Dont worry, its all for the good.Solune said:

Indeed, I never get much of a chance to fight Rufus. Really intense matches against him because sometimes I'm taken by surprise by his speed.
