Street Fighter (SFIV, SSFIV, HDR)

Had a very good set with overmostheads before, if anyone hasn't played his Oni yet send him an invite and let me know how you get on, I got hammered. Had to kill 2 hours so been grinding away in ranked mode and got Guile to 1000BP. :)

So thats:

Ryu 5000+ BP
Akuma 1000+ BP
E. Ryu 1000+ BP
Guile 1000+ BP

Boring chars I know :p Who can I try next?

Fei long
 
If you play Fei, every time you do a combo that ends with rekkas, you have to come up with a film sequel title and say it over mic, such as.

Rekkas
Rekkas 2, Rekka harder
Rekkas 3, return of the Rekka
Rekkas 4, Rekkas reloaded
Rekkas 0, The Origin of Rekkas
 
Had some very enjoyable games last night, thanks Yupyupno, Not a Zergling and OMH

I've been messing around with Cody so thought I'd give him a go. He's got some meaty combos that do a lot of damage and a couple of great anti airs. I've only done some of his trials and an hour or so in training mode... it's beginning to gel together now. His cr.lp x 3 > cr.HP > Crimanl Upper is easy and dishes a lot of dirt, speaking of which on knockdown he can get straight up and throw dirt as you like a counter! lol Im rubbish at FADC-ing, never did that with Abel so it's new to me. So I'm gonna concentrate on getting my execution on tap which means loads of training mode and good old endless battles with you guys :)

My stick is dying too, its dropping inputs and last night it locked in the down position. None of the buttons worked and I had to unplug it and back in again. I've had since launch and used for over 800 hours of SF4 so if it dies I wont be surprised.

Yupyupno, your Yun is great. You should use his dive kick as a cross up with characters that have poor wake up like Abel. Not a Zerling has probably the best reactions and zoning I've seen online, very hard to penetrate his defence and like everyone else has said he adjusts quickly. We played about 10 games I think and it was about even win/loss.

Then OMH (should be called OMG) came along and blew me away with his B+ Oni. Very aggressive in your face type game with a couple of killer combos that do way too much damage it's not fair! He never dropped a combo and Im sure some are 1 frame links too! I've messaged to ask if I can put some of our games on Youtube. We played about 15 games in total and I won about 3. I was kinda getting frustrated and started jumping in to meet a HP SRK > FADC > Ultra lucky me lol And then theres the s.lp's into those combos.. those combos! arrrgh I'll be having nightmares about them, I totally didn't know what to do. Picture this scenario:

He jumps in with HK and I block --> He then uses cr.lp to hit confirm --> if it hits he proceeds with that meaty combo if not hel backdash.. wtf am I supposed to do!? I tried step kicking when he backdashes but his dash is so that he can block it :( If I do EX TT and it works its only because ive guessed right. I think people have underestimated Oni, he is defo a high tier character in my books, especially after seeing OMH demonstrating what hes capable of.

Anyhows, nice one for the games people looking forward to many more. Adz I wanna get my revenge after that 5-1 wupping you gave me.
 
Missed you Elrasho because i was in a middle of a game and by the time i finished i was unable to join.

Np mate, I'll be on tonight and probably most nights, send me an invite and we'll commence battle :)

PS. I keep hearing the PC version has better online. Who on here has got it?
 
Nah, it's more that OMH is good rather than Oni being high tier, and also that most people don't know how to fight Oni yet. He has some great pokes, but you'll need to use him first to see how he is limited.

If you're talking about Zergling's Dudley, then yea, good zoning, I got whooped hard by him. Anticipation can be confused with reactions though. When he backs off to midscreen, he's just waiting for you to do something, so that just makes it look like godlike reactions every time. Depends on your char of course, but if you move forward a little, he'll back up to maintain that distance, or throw a punch.
 
Yea, you can't press buttons during his blockstrings. Best initial option is to mash backdash.

I don't really have a main any more :(
I can't do Cammy's links in AE even tho it's meant to be easier now, and tried maining Akuma, but i CBA learning the timings for the vortex setups.
So probably Ryu :o

Tonight should be ok. 8pm?

Im gonna crash after work, had a late night last night and feeling worse for wear at the moment. I'll be on around 10ish though dude
 

Hmmm, I'll go through his challenges tonight and see what I think.

His Dudley is very good.

I had a first to 5 set last night with omh and got battered 5-1. Some games were VERY close but others were very one sided. I hope they are still in my replays I wanted to upload them, although I had loads of games in ranked after that. He has some crazy combos!

Anyhows, nice one for the games people looking forward to many more. Adz I wanna get my revenge after that 5-1 wupping you gave me.

You'll either catch me on ~8pm or after midnight.
 
GGs Adz and Elrasho

For some reason Oni tends to build meter really well, especially when hes in.. I get a super in 1 round most of the time, so I like to go for FADC combos into the hard knock down for a good mixup / wakeup situation. Ending with the demon palm move where he stamps down leaves me in a good position so that's why I do those combos so much.

If I could offer any advice to fight Oni it would be to always look out for the slash crossups, they are completely punishable if blocked 99% of the time. His pretty low health and stun makes him quite fragile too against rush down characters so get in that ass once you got the knockdown... other than that its probably just practice against him, understanding his pokes etc

TBH i haven't come across an Oni i couldn't handle with my Ibuki, so i'm up for a challenge late tonight. As you say he has low health and when I've got my momentum he dies very very quickly.

In regards to the slash crossups, i take it you block by pushing > towards him and not < to block normal?
 
Fierce and ex slash will always hit behind if done at close range and most of the time thats the one people use, so yeah you push towards him. The medium slash hits on the front though and looks exactly like a fierce one, except medium is totally vulnerable to dragon punch. Dragon punch on the fierce / ex one is risky as it can come out the wrong way.

I hadn't come across an Oni I couldn't handle either, I think most people dropped him when they realised he's not that great but OMH has stuck with him and it's paid off now. I hadn't seen any of those combos before, play him tonight and you'll see what I mean. ;)

I've yet to play marge's dudley or much of Omh's Oni. I wanna see if I can out zone this amazing dudley!

Your Ryu vs Marges Dudley would be very close I reckon. Have a first to 5 and upload it.
 
I think my DeeJay was relatively even with Marge's Dudley a few nights ago.

So refreshing to play someone who plays an interesting character and has a bit of style to his game. Just nail down your high/low into derp damage with Dudley and you'll steam roll most on here Marge.
