I can only imagine fighting Fuerte without focus/invin backdash, the same way I can imagine pulling my fingernails out with pliers.

He would be a cool char design without the 33/33/33 meme splash vs grab mixup.

Try out light roll in training mode.

Shoryuken posted a cool and good punishable moves video. Go look for it there.

I'm not saying that you should memorize that video, but as you're playing, you should generally be aware of which moves are and are not safe, and which punishes can work in which situation. Even though he uses rashid, it helps to know the start up frames of your situational punish starters. Take Vega, for instance, he can punish very close -3 frame moves with st. lk, cr. lp, lk roll, but that only works in very tight ranges. If you have a 4 frame punishment window, you start with cr. lp>lk roll. If your opponent gifts you a -8 frame move, then standing HP hits crouchers, causes standup, and leads in to every good combo you are comfortable doing.

Obviously veterans know this poo poo, but it's a good concept to keep in mind if you're new at fighting games. Don't let your opponent get away with dumb poo poo, because if you do, they will rub it in your face.

jumping light punch has anti air utility, as does his air throw. Even with those tools, Vega's anti-air is definitely a struggle. You have to represent that poo poo, or people will jump down your throat.

It's not what you want to hear but air throw and his air to air m.k are pretty good options. If spaced properly his roundhouse is also good.

no. any of vega's AAs seem very likely to trade in my experience. vega's best "anti airs" are meeting them air to air with a throw or dashing under them (or ex walldive if they're jumping in from super far away). this was balanced in sf4 by vega having a few very good buttons, which now no one has.

the more i play vega the more i think he's secretly one of the worst characters in the game. low damage output without spending meter, sub par normals even for sfv, a terrible crush counter, a target combo that actually leads to damage whiffing on crouchers, no defensive options on wakeup, inconsistent at best anti airs. yeah he's capable of doing a load of damage if you dump all your meter into one combo, but so is everyone so that's not even really a plus.

They jump, then you react by jumping and trying to grab. If you react too late you'll just jump and immediately get hit by their attack that they were preparing to hit you on the ground with anyway. If you react sooner then they won't have the attack out yet and you'll have an opening to grab. If you do this too much though, they'll anticipate it by attacking earlier in the jump and hit you away before you get close enough to grab. They can also just see you jump and hit the attack button immediately, possibly hitting you before you can get close enough.

This has been my experience, anyway. I'm not entirely sure how the air grab hitbox works.

Found another Option Select, but it only really works in local multiplayer. Tell your opponent that you want to play for a specified amount of money. If they accept and you lose, claim you were just kidding. If they accept and you win, demand payment.

Of all the cool stuff x360ce can do, why can't it translate keyboard inputs into 360 controller inputs directly???

Air to air is actually something I kind of want to hear. I'm a bit confused how to air to air works in the game though. What beats what in a trade? Sometimes it feels like I should beat them but they get the hit.

Is it like rock paper scissors where a L beats a H an H beats an M and an M beats an L?

I find myself agreeing, birdie is like vega but not. You're the second person I've talked to about this who said the same thing today.

Honestly I don't have fun playing vega which is the most important thing for me. Bison is hella fun, Mika is fun, I have to fool around with the others more still but I enjoy Bison you really legit feel like bad guy when playing him.

You're obviously exaggerating when you say a single wrong guess leads to losses. If you feel that the only reason you're not getting better is because Cammy's health is too short you're just trying to think of an excuse. She has 900 health, 100 less than Ryu. That's one single sweep hit.

I'll say this though: I chose Cammy randomly as the first character I would learn. After putting like 60 hour into the game my more knowledgeable friend recommended I try playing a different character because I was abusing Cammy's character specific specials to circumvent learning specific basics. By this I mean I was using her spiral arrows, air cannon strikes, and hooligans to get closer to the opponent. I wasn't learning how to actually play street fighter by engaging in constant footsies then inching myself in by intimidating the opponent. I was just guessing with specials, especially her air cannon strike. I was also using her meterless invincible DP too often to make guesses.

I play Nash now.

The priority system in this game doesn't apply to air normals at all. It's like most fighting games where what wins or loses or trades is entirely up to hitboxes and hurtboxes.

Okay I found out something interesting and the head press issue.

First off head press it just happens after the hit mid jump air as like an extra punch you can combo into.

Second.
Bisons V-skill its kind of a parry? IT odesnt just do projectiles. I'm practicing on punches with ryu and can parry them. If i Hold it down i can reflect the parry as a fireball or I can just keep parrying and build up vtrigger.

Kind of cool not sure how practical his parry is compared to Ryu's though.

If you press punch on the way up it turns into a dive with his hand outstretched. Each strength of punch has a different trajectory. If you press punch as he's bouncing off the opponent's head (on hit or block) he swoops back in for another hit. You can control the trajectory of this second hit by pressing left and right.

While we're on the topic of Bison's headstomp, what determines if it whiffs completely? That's happened to me in a few matches but I can't replicate it in training mode. And what determines whether it whiffs to the P1 or P2 side?

My guess is distance and if the character moves too much. But I'm just starting bison.

Have you fooled around with his V-skill at all? It seems toa ct as a parry as well as a reflect.

i feel like a lot of the characters have abusable :getin: moves that work on scrubs and then you have to learn footsies to improve. cammy has some solid normals vs most of the cast and great speed so instead of giving up your work already on using here, you could work to fix your play so that you aren't using specials to get in so much and more to get damage once you are on offense and add mix ups. of course you should learn all the characters and if you're happy with where you are leaving cammy that's fine but don't write off going back once you have your footsie game down.

also i suck so what do i know

Basic Necalli combo: s.MK or s.MP, cr.MP xx light slashes. Use medium slashes if you're in V-Trigger.

For punishes, use cr.HP xx medium stomps, cr.MP xx light slashes, again use medium slashes if in V-Trigger.

Those are his two basics. For fast punishes, you can do s.LP, s.LP xx heavy DP, which starts in 3 frames. For lows, do cr.LK, cr.LP xx heavy DP, this starts in four frames.

Off of a divekick, you can jab into heavy DP.

You can combo super off of any stomps, so for his BnB you can do s.MK, cr.MP xx light stomps xx super, or do super off of the medium stomps from his punish combo above.

Good enough, or do you need other stuff too?
