Pre-release Super Street Fighter IV details

[fluxcore]

Seth doesn't actually beat him THAT badly if the Gief knows what to do.

[xpunch]

bro just dont play boxer against gief
regardless of skill level i hate that match up on the boxer end i just end up mind fuckin myself till i lose

I gota agree with you on that one bro, itz a mesd up match for Rog but i like the challenge, and if i win the match against a good gief i feel like im a cool guy  def a hard match for the Boxer.

Atleast in super street i can give gief a taste of his own medicine with Rogs new Dirty Bull ultra adds a whole new play style to him, since he probly be more dangerous up close jump in's could end with an ultra depending on the start up as iv heard it takes a while, but man i just wana play it already! hahaha.

oh right  i don't know much about that match up i just remember mason beating out jay.p's gief with seth and it looked like gief couldnt even touch him.

Pshh. I still beat his Rog with Seth afterwards

while i also dislike it counter picking it is always there in sf unless they put in a universal system(parry) its unavoidable since some characters cant win in certain situations eg against fireball traps

but in general if your good enough with a character you wont lose to a counter pick

[Lennysaurus]

You dont really need to counter pick in SF4 imo.  Not that many matched that are more than a 6-4.

You  just really need learn the individual matchups... much more so than any other game in my opinion

O.o 3S matchups are some of the worse. Far more so than SF4. EVERY character has a way around fireballs in 4.

well i stand corrected
i always thought it was footsie and parry dependant

The only counter pick that really gets my goat is Vega Vs Blanka.......

Thats fucking hard work, Blanka's roll beats out everything that Vega has....and clash hits arn't worth it if you wana try and standing HK them rolls.....if Blanka's up on health - you have to attack him from this point you are fuct.....

I've noticed that Vega is really awesome against Rog....Wickedways destroys my Ryu everytime....but I actually won a game with Vega against his Rog a couple of weeks back....could be that he doesn't know the match up...

Run-a-ways stylez against some characters make it fucking hard work from them to get in....

Ken also eats shit against Vega......

It's guna be some kinda wild getting to know all the new match ups...and then again depending on which ultra they choose....this will change the play style completely.....I am sooooo looking forward to fighting some of you third strikers in SSF4....Dudley looks like powerhouse

SSF4 Interview with Seth Killian


Says that Super is balance patchable. Woot! Whether they will tweak it or not if it's horribly unbalanced is another story. I really hope it's at least as even as this version at the very least.

[samurai black]

i thought he just says its technically possible...

"11- What is the possibility of SSF4 getting a patch balance post release?

We’re confident in the balancing work, but of course the competitive community of players will have the last word on the results.  A patch is possible, but we’re not planning on one apart from the free Tournament Mode DLC update."

Look at footsies for characters like Chun in 3S hahahahahahaha
