The Official Street Fighter IV Thread of FADCing a Stranger in the Alps
- Thread starter haunts

I suppose I can understand this sentiment, but it's frustrating to me as a Chun player that if I make the slightest mistake or if Honda gets a chance to mount any offense that practically 1/4 of my health is gone with one heavy punch or kick. Then again, I'm not very good and the friends that I play with are generally better than me.

Yeah, Maj, I liked checking in this thread for SSFIV info but now I have to and bounce between both. I actually just keep a tab open with this thread. But I guess we have to have a general thread and a hype thread.

I usually just empty jump in then throw OR come in with a c.LP on his wakeup to throw Gouken's off their counter game.
It's all about the mind games son!

Don't ultra his counter, wait for him to whiff it then Tiger uppercut fadc f. rh -> ultra.
Gouken can't really do much vs. Sagat

When you're about a half screen away (max range for his FA) start focus baiting Fireballs, you get instant crumple if they throw a fb, you absorb then counter hit with the FA into a phat combo.
If you get the other player tentative to throw fireballs, then it opens up fei long's rekka footsies and general ground game.
BitchTits said:I think it's only the disconnector that gets a strike, not the 'disconecntee'
On XBL usually that's the case, on PSN they both get it.
It's how I ended up with a 3%. Had like 10 ragequits or match finish then "you gotta start all over" couple weeks ago. Rather annoying.
TofuEater said:
Gouken has to guess high or low with the counter, unless he uses EX. So mix up your attacks between high, low and throw. That's SF4 in a nutshell, minus the high attacks. :lol
@ Dr.Haji, provided your connection is 4 or 5 bars you should be okay. I think you can beat fireballs after block with rekka. If not, it's really close. After blocking a fireball my rekkas usually connect, but it might be the other player being shocked at how quick the start-up is. It definitely catches people walking forward. And yeah, for sure the FA vs fireball thing is useful.

Actually, stay away from Wong's videos if you're trying to learn Fei Long. He wins matches because he has some of the best footsies on the planet, and uses Fei in that regard. However, his character knowledge for Fei (or at least implementation) isn't that great. If you want to learn footsies it's good, but it's not really something you can learn through videos.
It's pretty online friendly. Just walk up to max range FA distance and start charging it up. In general just focus bait with Fei Long a lot, since he has one of the best in the game up there with Chun and Fuerte. You'll get a surprising amount of crumples.

Yeah this was the problem, between the match lag and input lag, he could counter my pokes, like 80% of them. 99% of my throws were tech'd by him, thats some insane reaction time or he was just waiting for it. I don't know.
Played a ok Ryu, won him 4 times before he won once and then he(she) quit on me D:
I play gouken, Sagat is usually an easy matchup for me, but I rarely play a competent sagat. Gouken is anything but broken, if you're eating counters it's because you're too predictable, you need to mixup some armor breaking moves in there. Gouken whiffing a counter spells heavy damage for him, so you'd best make him afraid of throwing relying on counter. short TK is pretty safe me thinks. All in all though I'd say the it's a 5-5 match though. Gouken doesn't respond well to pressure since he's slow, problem for you is tha Sagat isn't much faster than gouken.TofuEater said:

Yeah I was pissed off in that match I forgot tiger knees at a certain distance were safe and would break armor.
The Koreans take their sf4 tournaments so seriously tv shows and hot chics, didnt see this posted yet so:

No really, my execution with the TE, matchup knowledge and degraded mixup game have me in the dumps.
But I want to have fun. And the torture of using that character will make me a better player.

TimeKillr said:Heh, the % score is your disconnect percentage.
Meaning that if you play more games without disconnecting, it'll go lower.
If I play 1 game and disconnect, I have 100% disconnect.
If I then play 9 more games, I have 10% disconnect.
If I then play 90 more games, I have 1% disconnect.
See how it works?
As far as I'm aware, the percentage always rounds up, so if you disconnect in a single match, you'll have at least 1% forever.
Wrong, at one point I had a 2% disconnect (not my fault i turned my xbox off after I won/lost and it was on the medal screen). After awhile it went down to 1% and recently about 2 weeks ago it got down back to 0%... And I don't really play the game a lot online
I think it's based on your last 100 matches or so. Something like that.jam86 said:Wrong, at one point I had a 2% disconnect (not my fault i turned my xbox off after I won/lost and it was on the medal screen).

I think Fatal Fury 2 would put TNA to shame.
Got to play Lyte Edge tonight in 1 match in champ. Got real lucky at end with random EX headbutt (had a feeling you would stick something out that wasn't ultra, so I felt and EX headbutted) I almost never throw headbutts in that situation.

Saw a pretty sweet Viper reset from kensou
Lost fragment, you'll like this one (if you haven't seen it already lol)
FFF xx ex seismo sjc fadc st. fp sjc mk bk
st. fp juggle puts them back into auto stand (no fall down/tech) and the sjc mk bk is a meaty ambiguous crossup. Messed around w/ it in casuals, ppl fell for it 100% on the first time lol. Really nice stun and even more damage, plus the bk placement gives you nice set ups.

I hear that. I had some really fun games last night. But since I've started playing Rog exclusively, I absolutely suck w/ the shotos now. Is there anyone that's really good at both charge and shotos that have no problem going back and forth?

I agree. I want to go back full force, but it seems the rest of the world has yet to follow. The last few nights have been dead when I was searching for matches. Didn't bother playing at all last night. The night before I won like 40 matches in a row because I couldn't stop running into flowcharters that ultra randomly. I usually don't bother with champ mode anymore, but out of desperation I gave it a shot, only to find red bar connections. I feel like I'm going downhill fast now :-(

Maybe that's just what Sirlin wants you to think

Well, the guy didn't SJC into the fadc so he wasted 2 bars, and he used st. mk instead of st. fp, but yeah, same thing in theory.

I've noticed that a lot of the korean matches I see, it's best out of five. Perhaps because of KOF precedents?
