I find TAP to be invaluable. Jesus christ this move is so good. Beats so many moves cleanly. Hazan Shu or w/e, guile's sweep (on reaction even, no anticipation needed), idiot's who jump in from too far, with sweep as soon as they land. I love TAP.

Jesus christ, I'm fully convinced that Balrog vs. Gief is a 1-9 matchup.When Gief gets his shit going it's a rock/paper/scissors that you have to win something like 10 out of 13 times. Remove Gief please.


Turtling Balrog players are very difficult to beat as Zangief. Crouching roundhouse has ridiculous range and speed. C.FP will stuff anything. LP Dash Punch is safe on block. J.FP pressed early on will hit him if he Lariats at close range because his hitbox is extended. Use J.RH as your jump-in which will stuff Lariat every time, and sets you up for an easy c.LP c.LP c.LK Headbutt Ultra combo. You probably don't want to use your EX moves because Lariat will hit enough times to trade, or Gief will just EX Green Hand through them and you'll eat a lot of damage. Conserve your meter for Super which can be linked off the same combo as your Ultra. Never try to headbutt a cross-up, just jump away with j.RH.


j.RH its a timing thing. if u get your timing down then it beats lariat clean but if u just jump randomly expect to get shot down (which is expected lol). better pokes against gief is standing jab surprisingly. it beats lariat at full range and links into his dash options. abuse the hell out of jump back FP as well. and c.RH is good but u have to use it at full range. if u do it anywhere remotely not at far range he sticks his head out or something and always get stuffed (or maybe im high when i get hit with it).

like i said im no rog expect but i give the rog/gief matchup like 6-4 gief's

when gief has anyone down its a hard guessing game. not just rog ^^

edit: about the block lag if anything inputting during block strings is the most easiest in SF4. i was most surprised when i do a jumpin and get my j.HK/HP blocked and they can reversal shoryu when i try to jab as a blockstring. ive seen so many times simple strings u wouldnt think could be inturrupted get beat out by reversal shoryus, ex jesus kicks, teleports, SPD's etc.


It should be noted that this is 100% because of lag. Lag will cause some moves to occasionally come out 1 frame too late, which is all you need to eat a reversal. It makes link combos really risky online because it encourages the other player to just spam reversal shoryus etc. Very unfortunate =[

Blanka can be annoying at first but you just have to pay attention to his meter, how he likes to use it, and most importantly whether or not he's charging. (as sagat, block ex horizontal ball high and reversal ex tiger shot will hit before he can block, good to know) Usually characters can beat ball with some form of straight jump as well.

Rog vs Geif isnt that bad imo just has to be played extremely pateintly. j.hp will probably give you the most damage, up close just make sure your combos are tight and will end with you out of spd range. Don't attempt to tick throw lol. If he does punch lariat like a fool nonstop, punish that shit. Ultra works whenever, jab dash straight works as it ends, j.hp beats it free. Jump back hp beats most geif stuff as well.

Lag tactics suck for sure, not much you can do about em though except go to an arcade

God I hate this game. It is so bad. It's complete garbage, why can't you just slap a ladder system onto 3rd strike and sell that instead? Jesus christ, stop making horrible games that reward being an idiot. No wonder the video game industry dropped 31% in the US this year (Q1). Serves 'em right.

Atlantian if you're actually going to spend time on it and you're willing to improve, it's definately not worth a buy. If you're going to mash random crap casually once a week then by all means, go for it. Be sure to pick up Ken while you're at it.

I hate this game so much.

Well I don't know how to take that. I've played ken in every sf game ive ever owned/played. Is he really cheap or overpowered in sf4? And Im simply wondering if there enough people that play the pc multilayer to keep my interest so i just don't play the computer everytime.

edit: Atlian, there are plenty of people that play this. You'll never have a problem finding games. Ken is not cheap or overpowered. He's "cheap" if you're bad as fuck (see: adeny's post)

Lol, you actually think that ''3rd Strike: Ken, Chun & Yun'' edition is better? The balance of SF4 is much, much, much better than 3rd strike. Also, the horrible parry system made everyone a bunch of wusses (and it's justified). All 3rd strike games are matches of turtling, footsies and hit confirming into your SA.
