[stereomonkey]

End of April guys, sounds like the site traffic will hit the roof again!

[Barnstorm]

how some of the new ultras work
bisons looks like fuertes but better

[Chuckk]

I want to test the counter ultras cause in sf4 even if you hit a button before/at the start of/during an ultra freeze the move doesen't come out.
if thats the case, just how early or late does the person have to stick something out for your counter to work?

Like, there it looked really shitty.

It looked a little better in that Poongko Cammy vid, where it looked similiar to super freeze in say 3s where if a button was pressed it's still coming out.
If the counter ultra freeze had that effect, they might be mildly more useful.

[samurai black]

so basically, CQC is useless.

[massi4h]

Yeah it's useless. But if someone starts their move up before the ultra freeze it will come out after the ultra freeze, unless you can kara it like akumas demon.

I can see it being a good scrub tool though. Option select EX Cannon Strike/CQC through block strings lololol.

[Chuckk]

well yeah if that works it'll be FUN for like playing with mates and shit

[massi4h]

And for pissing people off online lol.

[[NIUE] BIRRY WONG]

I dont know about bisons eh. Its blockable, meaning its usefulness as an AA is next to none, which is what the biggest strength of fuerte's is. It doesn't look like you can combo/juggle into it at all. It trades with DP. It might be useful as an ambiguous crossup on wakeup, (although if they guess right, its a free punish, and if you time it wrong and they jump, its a free punish) and its gonna be a decent fireball punish though, but he has ways of getting around fireballs NOW, so i don't know. I dont think it looks WORSE than fuerte's current ultra, but i certainly dont think it looks any better.

[stereomonkey]

He has always had ways to get around fireballs, just now they are even better!  I like his new ultra and from viewing this video if he can punish people doing moves that have a bit of recovery is like a pretty good assist considering his Nightmare Booster is rarely used.

That and it looks fucking sweet like Roses ending on A3
