holy fuck, that guile was nasty. need to learn me some new tricks.
I've been keeping up with these articles myself... they're really good. Makes me want to pick up Ryu again just so I can put some of this stuff into practice... It's really no good with Abel since his walk speed + pokes at mid range = useless :( You can't do anything on reaction, so you just get poked into oblivion
HIDE BEHIND THE TABLE!!?
haha funny shit
Fairly brief and kinda wanky.
Good find though!

Man, there are so many idiots on this board these days I can't even tell if that's sincere :(
pt4 up!
Steven (I Got Paid) once talked about a technique which is related to this. Have you ever seen your opponent struggling to get a difficult move out but they just can't find the gap? Well if you give them an opening their brain will still be set to 'complete task' and they will complete their move even though it is totally unsafe to do so.
This is different to a regular bait as your opponent is not intending to use this move as a counter anymore. They were when they first unsuccessfully attempted it, but through their frustration they lose sight of winning and the success of completing the move becomes their primary focus!
Try it out and see what happens!

Shot. Should I put this to work with my Sagat? LOL.

If footsies are what I think they are then Sagat has a hard time in SF4 as his walk speed is so slow.

Shit yeah it is.
And all of his normals are slow. The only move that I think can be used to punish whiffs is his standing light kick. Seems like sagats always had shit footsies barring cvs2 where he seems to have awesome footsies.

His alpha 3 footsies weren't too bad. s.mp (similar to his overhead animation in SFIV) was a decent quick ranged poke that had some lower body invincibility, and his c.hp was easily as good as in CVS2 in alpha 3 too. Even his c.hk wasn't that bad either. . .
But yeah, SFIV Sagat ain't about that.

Forgot to mention: the above is some Genius from Stephen.
I always remember his lecture on "Missed combo opportunities", which was some good advice for doing that biggest most efficient combo (or combo set up) as you can instead of being all safe and throwing and shit.
Man some people just cant spot sarcasm to save themselves
Ugh, im guilty of that shit.
I often miss something and go into "fuck you im going to land this goddamn move/combo" mode.
I only get that way when I'm playing Guile. When it comes to missing his super all I wanna do is land the fucker. Haha
What, aye? Supers gone after you use it.
Oh, and no game exists in my experience besides sf4 lol. Just clicked.

Sometimes you can spot it in desperate Zangief players too.
I tend to do it if it doesn't come out the first time. I think Euan is the same when it comes to that ;)

Yeah I can remember playing Street Fighter II series for a good couple of years before I realised that when I jumped in i didn't
have to press anything. Thus causing opponents to whiff their uppercuts. A tactic that would later be crucial in the Street Fighter III series.

If you wouldn’t say something to someone in person, do your reputation a favor and don’t say it online either.
Haha everything BIRRY WONG says online he says in person as well.
Everything weazzy says online is a million times worse in person. Buck a hoe.
