Zangief vs. Fuerte Match

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTxtKOIV248

It almost looks like Ultra Spark sucks Gief out of the air. o_o

Dah damage!

 

[DarkoMaledictus]

I know animation is technicaly "moving pictures" but :lol .

At least now it's clear how capcom could affort putting "hours of videos" in super SFIV.

Lol weren't they supposed to make these look better and not worst lol! Talk about going on the cheap!!!

 

[Arde5643]

holy fuck at that Fuerte 2nd ultra..

Im so stoked.

Some more option selects with ultra spark, all from Dawgtanian in SRK:

this is very similar to the current Giga Buster option select:

You can also option select it via a jump in Fierce Elbow (buffer ultra spark, hit all 3 kicks when elbow would normally connect) if opponent does a backdash they get sparked, if they block ultra doesnt activate.

This one is new thanks to ultra spark:

Ultra spark can be used to punish crouch tech option select. Link 3 close jabs and instead of a throw at the end, walk backwards and buffer ultra spark, people who option select will whiff a crouching short, hit all 3 kicks when you see this. (strict timing against most chrs).

And a much better use for option select EX run:

This is an awesome option select that I managed to find and test and it works like a charm.

You simply buffer the two backwards quarter circle motions, and hit two punches followed very quickly by all 3 kicks. (Kara motion). If your opponent hits you (whether it be a jump in or on the floor), you will absorb the hit (as long as its not armour breaking) and instantly punish with the Ultra Spark. If the opponent doesn't hit you, you will flash yellow and Piccadilllo jump to safety!

Oh yeah, Fuerte also gets a minor buff in HP - he now has 950 HP instead of 900.
Fuerte's climbin' up that tier list already.

 

[MIMIC]

I'm just glad that Fuerte's new ultra allows for a greater margin of error due to its fast start up. If you started the U1 too late, your opponent could simply neutral jump out of the way and punish you after he lands. With U2, being "late" with this one means being right on time

Opponent: WTF?! Fuerte's new Ultra is a parry?!

 

[Fstrike]

Opponent: WTF?! Fuerte's new Ultra is a parry?!

no he's talking about the EX armor option select like Balrog's EX dash punch armor cancel > ultra since Fuerte's EX Run has armor

 

[Wiseblade]

I'm calling it: El Fuerte comes higher than Dudley in the first Super tier list. Between his buffs and the nerfs to his worst matchups, the Hurricane of the Gulf of Mexico is going to rock Super.

From the next issue of OXM magazine:

 

[LegatoB]

Yeah, posting photos of a magazine is a great idea, Devid.

And it's gone. I broke the forum policy, didn't I? :lol

They didn't nerf Akuma though, although ultra 2 will go a long way to help Fuerte in this nightmarish match-up.

Totally called it!

I'm probably being too optimistic or glossing over matchups, but I'm still totally hyped!

 

[Myomoto]

Giant bomb's stream just started, get hype!

[C-Jo]

A preemptive f you to people who will inevitably complain about the quality of the play in the stream.

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

I thought I was being quick in getting this link up.

Ryan read out my comment, I was asking about his hair, he thought I was talking about Hakan's hair.

O the frivolities.

 

[Myomoto]

Honda seems to do headbutts through Sagat's tigershots all day long, not sure which strength headbutt.

 

[Ronabo]

headbutt goes thru fireballs?

 

[Skilotonn]

Was about to post the link to the stream but decided to refresh first - it was a good call!

BUT

Why am I the first to post this: next week there'll be a live stream courtesy of 1up with iplaywinner & friends, including S-Kill...

http://iplaywinner.com/news/2010/3/23/1upcom-game-night-with-super-street-fighter-4.html

So it looks like one of the US sites got the picture finally, too bad we have to wait till next week...

 

[Brandon F]

Is the Indestructible song completely gone now?

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Hahah they are not even looking at the move list for info

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Is the Indestructible song completely gone now?

When the stream started it was at the character select screen, so it could still be there.

 

[Skilotonn]

Honda's headbutt invincibility was enough to go through fireballs? Did I really miss that?

Capcom has been good to me if so!

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Its gone. Because of all the whiners. Indestructible > dudebro wallpaper of Ryuken

 

[Brandon F]

Damnit, Seth is not only still in this shit, but also still the endboss of the single player....:focking sigh:

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

It's gone and we only have ourselves to blame

 

[Brobzoid]

how does the custom soundtrack work this time around? Didn't work online in sf4 rite? Cus Imma bump indestructible if I can.

 

[Myomoto]

Controller config menu confirmed for not changed. At least in the preview copy.

Edit: Random select also gives you a random ultra CONFIRMED!

 

[Brandon F]

WIll buying new costumes be as expensive as the full retail game again?

 

[Skilotonn]

They usually record these right?
I'll be in class

If they don't, someone off SRK surely will.

But yeah Haunts, make sure it's recorded!

 

[enzo_gt]

And yet still no one has addressed the whole costumes feature, whether we're gonna be whored out for it or if its included.

 

[Skilotonn]

And yet still no one has addressed the whole costumes feature, whether we're gonna be whored out for it or if its included.

Capcom JPN blog already confirmed about a month ago that you have to buy all costumes, the ones you bought in SFIV will carry over to Super as well, and "they will follow the same setup as SFIV", which I assume it means they'll have packs again, with spaced time releases per packs, which would be kinda silly to do again if that's what it means...

 

[MrBeggar]

is there any confirmation on the music rival or arranged being selectable or not?

 

[Myomoto]

Yes, you have to complete the arcade mode first.

Also, Guile's sunglasses stay on between rounds, fuck yes!

Edit: Also, Guile could really go for a cup of coffee right about now!

 

[gutter_trash]

Honda seems to do headbutts through Sagat's tigershots all day long, not sure which strength headbutt.

was it low tigers? or high tigers

in SF2, he flies over low tigers
in SFA3, he flies under high tigers

in vanilla SF4, he eats tigers

 

[Myomoto]

Think it was high, honestly not sure.
They're recording the stream, so we'll be able to look it up later.

 

[Frank "Trashman" Reynolds]

This giantbomb stream is kind of brutal. Why couldn't they bring in some people who know what they are doing.

 

[RedAssedApe]

I just had this image in my head of Honda wrestling a tiger :lol

 

[Rentahamster]

Yay, arranged BGM.

You'll have to wait till next week when Iplaywinner does a live stream.

 

[Myomoto]

They just did a Vega Ultra 1, hits on the way up.
