People are like "man gotta activate and then rush them down till my bar runs out" when there are a lot of better uses for it. Anytime you land a sweep or back throw (or throw into corner) or EX divekick or anti-air fireball or jump-in or... well you get the idea, but you can activate and get 1 guaranteed mixup/bait opportunity with the possibility of 360-410+ damage even at just 50% revenge. Hell a 50% activate gives you 1 mixup into combo, plus enough timer left to do another mixup and hit-confirm into a combo that finishes after your bar has run out. That's not even counting some other guaranteed setups like counter dash, activate, U1 against certain pokes. Or even activate, use the screen freeze to confirm what they're doing, counter dash, combo. Plus even if you don't land the biggest combos ever, you're gaining momentum, or at least resetting the match and getting some breathing space at the very least. Obviously U2 is useful and sometimes you just need that big damage button to smooth out some rough patches, but a lot of times it's just giving you the option to do like 420 damage instead of 360 damage off of the same moves. There are some recovery frames after U1 activates. It's also not really a free mixup or even a particularly advantageous one after knockdown. The options you get are overhead / crossup / throw / low short. A lot of reversals will eat this up, at which point you have to bait the reversal, and you don't entirely have initiative or control. Also, her overhead isn't that fast and you can probably block it on reaction, even if you do something like c.lk - s.mp - overhead or some tricky string like that. Her custom combo doesn't give her increased priority like Genei Jin. However, I didn't know about the parry thing or that you could combo it in from a jump-in. I know it's pretty obvious but in Day 1 excitement you just don't think about these things. =) | ||

I mean come on, I was already doing 400+ damage combos if I baited a reversal with my U1 activation on day 1. Juri U1 stuff is going to get pretty nasty in the near future, I think. | ||

Been doing some of the challenges. I was doing Chun-li's thinking why does she sound so awful? Then I realised all my voices were set to English so I went and changed that. | ||

 not sure if there's anyway to combo u1 outside of ruffian kick fadc (which whiffs on crouch) or ex zoom knuckle fadc. but b.strong prolly one of the weirdest AA ive seen. rly surprisingly when a j.rh looks like its gonna completely fuck me up but b.strong AA's it clean O.O althou i have trouble in corner against rly aggresive/poking friendly chars (rog and bison). slide is a temporary answer i guess anyway cant complain too much. love what capcom did to cody thou | ||

There was leaked info that there will be a PC port. I'm trying to learn Hakan but man is he limited in his options. He's so god damn slow and his antiair options aren't very good from what I'm seeing. I keep expecting his slide to avoid projectiles but things like Cody's still stuff it. His SPD is really slow (3 frames, same as a normal throw) with pretty garbage range so he doesn't seem to be a traditional grappler character like T.Hawk or Gief (both of whom I also play). Very strange character and if there's any potential in him, I guess I'm just not seeing it. I saw a tournament video of Hakan and saw Daigo play him in the LA fight club matches but there's just not a lot to go by. | ||

it's still very raw, but I loved how he covers so much ground with focus armor dash. A lot of players complain that her karakusa traps are more difficult compared to 3s, but look at how fadc makes karakusa pressure look so fresh. | ||

Because you can interrupt the dash with a normal while oily, you can start combos with level 1 focus with Hakan. He's definitely no Gief substitute, that's for sure. Have you seen UltraDavid's videos yet? + Show Spoiler [UltraDavid showing Hakan stuff] + Oh man I was browsing the SRK Hakan forum yesterday and I only was able to check out the Hakan lab stuff. I didn't see these videos, those are really good to know. It seems like you have to spam inputs very quickly, like FADC into normal into slide sort of like option selects but with better timing requirements. Thanks for the videos! | ||
