I must be like of the of the few people who ISN'T offended by a character representing their country/ethnicity. Heck, El Fuerte was one of the reasons why I got into Street Fighter.

The best part of all this is that I am kinda like Fuerte.

Oh and Dudley is Alex Louis Armstrong's half Black cousin, making him 1/4 White, 1/2 Black, and 1/4 Pringles.

You cook? You wrestle? You have an infinite loop? You have a poor relationship with a giant Native American man? (spoilers but it's a fighting game and nobody cares about the story so not really)

That explains how he got his curleh mustache.

And wait, since Alex Louis Armstrong had the same english voice actor as Vegeta and Piccolo, wouldn't that make him part Saiyan and part Namek too?

How do you fight your second rival? I heard to hold down all three kicks when it pops up, but I tried as Abel and it's been Guile every time.

My day 2 response to this game:
I did not care for the original, but jesus, I don't know what they did, but even the old charecter seems so much more fun to play. I play Abel in SFIV and its sort of along the lines of "Hahaha, yeah, I got it" now its more along the lines of "HELLLS YEAH!!!" His improved falling sky, faster sweep, and Ultra II all make him a drastically more exciting character.

Makoto is fun but hella frustrating, on so many levels. I'll sit back while others figure her out, and pick her and simply do her third taunt all day till I get ultra II built up, and then spam so wiffed Taurugi safely, power myself up, do the ultra, combo after words, taunt somo more.

Juri took a bit to get since she wasn't rushdown like most had predicited, but zoning out has never been so fun. Hold a medium fireball, when you see an EX coming your way, shoot it, then cancel out the rest with a kick. Hell, you don't even have to do that, just dash under the *****. No EX fireballs against Juri.

Cody mirror matches are incredibly exciting as well.

Adon, I don't know why, but I play him and Guilty Gear comes to mind, I have no idea why, just, I love it. Everything about him pisses my opponent off, and that alone makes me love him. Ultra II for his ear **** all day.

More like fast as hell (not track team material, IMO), can be easily excitable, and can easily annoy people. I have yet learned how to cook, but I really want to. The Mexican food at my college sucks *** and I need my fix. I do have a bit of a loop where I have a tendency to repeat things in conversation.

I don't wrestle, but I have training in Tae Kwon Do and a little bit of Karate. Intend on either taking a MMA class at my school's gym or perhaps search for something off campus, but won't break my wallet. I would like to have some grappling techniques in my repertoire.

And no, that doesn't make Dudley part Saiyan or Namek. He doesn't look like them at all.

From what I've seen, not everyone has 2 rivals. Try doing it with someone who you know for sure has 2 rivals, like Ryu or something.

If you want groundfighting techniques, Brazilian Jiu Jutsu is an art that I've tried and enjoyed. For normal throwing techniques, idk, I guess you could try Judo or Aikido but I haven't tried those so I can't tell you how they are.

No johns, he was white. He's got re-vitaligo. It's the opposite of what Michael Jackson had. Every year his skin gets darker and darker.

For you Juri players, I have a little bit of advice. An SRK user and I both noticed that her Pinwheel, including EX version, can be Guac'd. The SRK user did it with LK on a normal pinwheel. I did it with MK Guac on an EX Pinwheel by accident (I was trying to get over her).

Oh yeah, that. Yeah, I only use pinwheels in BnBs or to punish your dashes/jumps while I'm fireballing/playing footsies. They are unsafe.

I'm having a lot of difficulties on some of my matchups. My bad matchups are Blanka, Adon, Guile, and Balrog.
Dudley's kind of hard to face as well. But he's not as bad as characters like Blanka for me.

I'm going to need videos on how to handle these matchups.

Yo has anyone played some "new" scrubs yet? I feel Adon became the new Shoto scrub solution... Fireballs are replaced by wall dives, they're quick as hell. His dp-like knee is the alternative to shoto dp. I was playing a scrub yesterday and all he did was random wall dives. If blocked, Flying Knee Attack!

Fuerte's anti-air grab thing.

I wiki'd.
Guacamole Bomb, where he jolts upward in an arc jump, it grabs if you jump.

KumaOso , you should keep me up to date, man! I go on both forums, esp the fuerte section

Ibuki right?

I'm not sure, but can't you use Neck Breaker to go under Guile's Sonic Booms? There's also the trick of using Tsujigoe and Kunai over them at full screen to build meter, though Guile can spam them so fast I'm not sure how effective it would be.

What about the other ones is giving you trouble? Generally I'm guessing it's because their damage is good and Ibuki's health isn't. For Blanka and Adon I'm guessing the Balls/Off-the-wall kick are troublesome too.

Couldn't find any vids, sorry.

EDIT: I found some vids!

I really have trouble against T Hawk, Guile, Scrubby Ryu's (i try to out think them, but they're stupid so there's no thinking involved, which makes me losd for some reason), Scrubby Ken's (Uggghhh, so..many..ryus..and..kens) really good Vega's, really good Gens, and Scrubby Cammy's.

I **** Juri, Guy, Makoto, Dudley, Dhalsim, and Abel.

We should play. @_@

I beat 95% of the Cody's online tho. I normally lose to them because I'm trying to be flashy or a ****ing wake-up ultra.

Hillarious, because I only lose to Cody's when I go for a command grab, and eat a wakeup ultra. Its a fun matchup. Ultra I would probably be better for it, but I just love Ultra II far too much.

Yeah, scrubs tend to always do stuff on wake-up. Oh, I lost to 2 Cody's because I thought I could punish his U2 in the middle of it. I am sadly mistaken.

It's Guacamole Slew. You'd think one of Los Fuertes would know that. Anyway, though great to find another SRK and El Fuerte user.

I'm finding it really difficult to do Ultra Spark on the 360 controller. There are times that I do it that I end up jumping over the fence. Once you have to go back to this controller for whatever reason, you see why it was good thing to abandon it.

Ah, thanks. I'm hoping I'm just missing something which is making the matchups difficult. It's hard to punish some moves like Adon's wall kick and Blanka Ball and yeah, her HP is making things hard. I'm not having that many issues against Guile anymore. I just need to learn when a tick throw is coming and I should be fine. Ibuki's a good rushdown character, but due to no parrying, I have to worry a lot about good wake up moves. Even if she has an easy time against shotos, one wrong move and Ryu can take away almost half of her health in one shot.

I've been using Ken, Ryu, and Guile on the side when I played my friends. Ryu's just good as always. Ken's Kara throw is fun to tease people with, and Guile's not too bad this time around. I'm still committed to sticking with Ibuki though.

And if anyone wants to play me and hasn't added me on PSN, here's my tag again :Izanagi_XIII

I'm shocked that I haven't played another Chun online yet, considering how diesel she is.

At this point, the character I have the most trouble with is Bison. I won like eight matches in a row, then played three Bisons in a row and lost to each one. His second ultra has a ******** Snake-style hitbox.

And speaking of that, has anyone else noticed how often you get the same character two or three times in a row? That can't be a coincidence.

I've only seen 2 Chun Li's at best. I haven't seen much either.
And I REALLY hate Bison. I honestly think it's a bad matchup for Ibuki. Also his Ultra II can easily punish Ibuki when a Kunai is thrown. It's frustrating.

I'm interested to see how much Ibuki's strategy will change as people play Super.
I hope she won't have any huge disadvantages in some matchups. I don't want to end up CPing in this game.

I know right? It actually does lead into one of her BnBs, c.LK c.LP s.LP c.MP Neck Breaker.

Ibuki's combos are all gonna end up with Neck Breakers, there may be a flowchart for her surfacing soon.

Does your opponent have a neck?
-> Yes
--> Break it!

etc.
