I thought you were serious, until I saw where you finished in the league
Unless you've improved drastically, then I shall challenge you!
Got battered
I've all but abandoned my ropey Abel though and I'm having a bit more success with Shoto types (Ryu, Gouken, Evil Ryu...) I like Sagat too but have no real idea what I'm doing with him. I kinda play him the same as I play Ryu at the minute, can't utilise his Ultras, almost never use his knee thingy....
I reckon some research and practice might add him to my scrubby repertoire...

I play Sagat. The main thing is to try to keep your opponent out with low Tiger Shots for the most part and to bait them into jumping at you. Sagat has probably the best anti-airs in the game. Trade DP into forward hard kick into Ultra does probably 350 damage alone.
The difficult bit is playing footsies with other characters. He has exceptionally slow walk speed so he's at a big disadvantage. You have to learn the range of each of your normals because you can't rely on walking back/forward to get proper range. His standing light kick cancelled into low Tiger Shot, his standing medium kick and his crouching hard punch are probably his best normals. Crouching light punch is great at close range because it's 3 frames. And forward light kick is a good way to surprise opponents (it can cancel into crouching light punch too).
The Tigher Knee is a great move because it breaks focus attacks, but you have to learn spacing, although there are some frame traps that will get you at the perfect distance for one. IIRC, the standard one is crouching light kick x 2, crouching light punch, medium Tiger Knee. That doesn't work on all characters currently, but in Ultra Tiger Knee forces stand, so it will work on everyone in future
If anyone fancies a game against a Sagat (or I'm also learning Chunners/Ryu/Rufus) my GFWL name is Laughter 7.

Are we going to get recordings of the finals boys??
Adz was online and he didn't tell me..... clearly not ready for an Akuma Mirror!
I was on for around 15-20 minutes and it's the only chance I've had to play all week. Tomorrow I'm gonna get some practice in and then we'll play, this weekend by the latest. Oh and also, my HK wasn't working for some reason so I need to open my stick up and sort that out!
Add me mate: adz4eva
I really enjoy playing decent/good Sagats, I think he's a very difficult character to master. The best Sagat I've played is Jiji, he use to wipe the floor with my Ryu.
