Street Fighter (SFIV, SSFIV, HDR)

Blimey theyve bent him over and done something rotten to him.

He's undeniably the best character in Super, what were you expecting?

Besides, he is still incredible in AE as his frame data has not changed!

Unique Attacks

• Deleted hittable box for his Reverse Spin Kick (Toward or Back + Hard Kick) from his knee and below during the first few frames after starting up and reduced its damage. With this adjustment, it's possible to make attacks like Ryu's Crouching Medium Kick whiff and hit them out.

Amazing buff! Added to Guiles already "best in game" footsies!!!

• Spinning Back Knuckle's (Toward + Hard Punch) damage reduced.

All good characters got a damage reduction.

Special Moves

• Sonic Boom's meter gain at startup is halved, and we adjusted his meter gaining rate through the match.

Very much needed as booms are spammed so much by Guile players due to their fantastic frame properties (range of speeds, RECOVERY! and startup). Guile should not be able to build huge amounts of meter through turtling

• Light Kick, Medium Kick and Hard Kick Flash Kicks damage reduced.

Everyone who had strong AA or combo enders got reduced damage

Ultra 2

• Sonic Hurricane's damage has been reduced, and the startup time is a bit slower.

Still safe on block!!! This Ultra keeps this very rare and very important property.

Overall

• Damage nerf is applied to Special Moves and his Ultra 2, so we can say his damage is reduced throughout.

He had monster damage in Super with simple stuff like jhk df hk fk or jhk cmp boom fhp, now he just has above average damage output

• He will require more attacks to finish off opponents.

• There are almost no changes to his frame data, so in Arcade Edition he can do everything that he can already do.

This is what makes guile incredible, not a bunch of minor damage nerfs that other top characters also got.
 
Sounds like abel sucks now.

abel doesnt suck. he is just not godly like the twins, you can still play the same way you used to, but have no random roll to rely on this time

and guile's nerf is well deserved. he used to do easy and big damage, have the sonic boom spam to fall back on. now he only has easy damage and a nerfed sonic boom spam with its godly recovery.

Chun's gone from A to B. I didn't think her nerfs were that bad but then again if your comparing her to the twins...

I'm happy about guiles nerfs. sonic boom sonic boom flash kick... gets a little boring! :p
 
I had a first to 3 (5 round games) with Mr Psycho yesterday who uses Guile, he was the runner up in the tourny who beat Art 3-0. Was a good set and I'll upload it later, I managed to do much better then Art which was odd, just shows his game has dropped a lot too these days.
 
OMG I'VE REACHED 3001 PP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D

Probably won't seem like much to others on here but I've never ever been able to hit that milestone. I would have good and bad sessions and fluctuate between 2200-2800 PP. Whenever I play anyone on 3000 PP + they are normally 'good', so I now finally rate myself as half decent. :P

Congratulations
Sorry to burst your bubble, but it'll drop down soon, you lose loads of points from just 1 loss. I went down to 1400 odd at my lowest. You should stop playing ranked and keep your 3k safe:D
 
I hit 3500PP when i ran into a long sequence of sub 2000PP players :p

It's great running into sub 2000PP players but if you ever slip up one game (and sometimes I do) it cancels out the previous 5-6+ wins. :mad:

Anyway 3500PP is nothing for you. You should have been 4000PP+ easily 4-5 months back. When you were at your peak you were by far the best player I've played (even up to now) on a regular basis. Shame you gave it up for an inferior game. ;)

I am gonna retire from ranked lol. But now I am on ~7900 BP with Ryu... so close to that 8000 mark.... :|
 
I only play ranked as a last resort these days if I cant find/create a decent endless lobby

Will be a last resort for me now too I think. Beating people who were over 3k PP once in awhile yet never being able to reach there myself was very frustrating. I think the new combos I have learnt with jab jab dp have made me able to finish off opponents where previously I wouldn't have taken full advantage.

I think my highest is 2.5k

You were definitely over 3k PP and with Deejay, you were hardly ever using Balrog at that point.
 
Sorry Adz not been on as I've been too lazy to open my TE up from the back. :o :p

I'll get it sorted for AE release for sure. I'm defo getting on PC I think, maybe both...but I like PC for convenience, it's always on.
 
I'm up for it anytime mate, don't really get to play any other Sagat.

Here is a recent set I had with |Mr Psycho| who uses Guile and was the runner up in the tourny, it was first to 3. Obviously it took me a few rounds to warm up...


edit: If someone would like to explain how at 16:58 his ultra misses me, I'd be grateful lol, very unlucky there.
