Just play who you want. People complain but the truth is that most of the shoto players are just white noise. Its like playing the CPU.

Get good/decent with a Ken/Ryu/Akuma and no one will give a fuck

Also I believe I hit 3500bp tonight before losing to 2 giefs in a row in extremely close games. Then I could never find a game that was over 2 bars: [ Guess around 3am everyone stops playing except Japan

Kinda sad for a game that prob a million people just bought.

Can anyone give me some advice for Sagat's fake kick?
This shit is just ridiculous.. It's like the 2nd trial on NORMAL too, so I can't do ANYTHING until I get this fucking kick (or, lack of).
Does capcom even screen their games?

btw is sagat considered a shoto?
its me, tasteless,s roomate LOL!

I'm about ready to rage on that square gate anytime now.


awwww, you serious? Square-gate is fucking sick! If you get used to square gate your execution will get a lot more consistent than an Oct gate user. You lose so much diagonal throw with oct gate.


Good shit on getting so high red.venom, I've only been able to play online for a couple days now and I've only reached 2000. As I figured, there's way too many shotos online to play El Fuerte until I can get 4 or 5 hp's consistent. How do you get games with high bp users? I have trouble joining a lot of games so I usually create rooms, but generally only <1500 players join in. When I get >2000 will the quality get better?

as for anyone thinking about playing Ken/Akuma/Ryu, go for it. The only reason that people might seem peeved at those characters is that most of the people online who use them use the same strategy (wake up srk, run away hadouken, jump in hk then sweep). I'm teaching my room mate how to do link combos, kara grab, and post ex tatsu mixup with ken and he's already funner to play against than most <2000 bp Kens after 2 days of play.

Also Sagat isn't a shoto, he doesn't have a hurricane kick or part of the Ryu gangster crew. I'd rather have his fireballs and tiger knee though.

Anyone have any advice on how to play Gief against Sagat?

Lariat through fullscreen fireballs to build meter and avoid getting hit. Make your way a bit closer, look for a chance to EX green hand your way in, or if you are pretty close you can fish for a s.RH (to kick him in the face if he tries to fireball, or to whiff -> SPD lulz). It's really not that bad of a fight all things considered, you have no reason to jump at Sagat so it's harder for Sagat to get easy damage and he can't keep you out all day unless you're just flailing.

Fighters are a lot more fun when you play with people in-person who live close-by. You're really missing out if you only play online.

I assume you mean, "KKK lariat through fullscreen low fireballs and duck under high ones"?

'Cause from my experiences yesterday, his KKK lariat gets hit by Sagat's high fireballs and his PPP one lasts so long that it can be hit by a 2nd fireball before you can block. =/

^this

what I've been trying is ducking high fireballs then cr.HK to inch closer and kick lariating or saving (lulz) low tiger shots. I haven't tried stuffing fireball with roundhouse yet though, that'll be helpful. I've gotten ex-banishing flat punish fireballs pretty much down. Whiff-ex ban flat into 720 is satisfying as hell.

Man, I sold out so hard playing Gief.

For what you want, the SF4 online is good enough. Just having any kind of competition will help you improve a lot especially if your local competition is nonexistent.

Really? To me the square gate feels awkward and clunky, I always mess up combos on square gate. I've used octo for years now though, maybe I'm just too used to it.
