Denjin Arcade Pre-Ranbat Tourney!

Last night there was a tourney at Denjin Arcade since the ranbat season #2 is almost here this was a warm up tourney until the ranbat starts. It was a 2v2 team tourney Mikado style and the format was pokemon. We had 31 entrants and what a tournament it was. All 2nd round winners were great matches to watch and top 8 was very entertaining. Here are the results..
SF4 2v2 Mikado (31 entrants):
1.) UltraDavid (ZA/DH)
2.) BustaBust (VI/AB)
3.) Ironfist (ZA/SA)
4.) Gootecks (SA/BA)
5.) Brandon S. (ZA/??)
5.) Joe Dubbs (SA/ZA)
7.) JC (akuma/??)
7.) Bryant The Tyrant (BA/AB)

Let me note that UltraDavid is a BEAST. lost to him twice (winners finals/grand finals). Definitely a tournament you should not have missed if you were in the area. Lots of good games and fun times. Tournament went pretty smooth and i can't wait for the ranbats to start! Get Your Tournament was there and streamed the tournament. I am pretty sure he will upload them when he gets the chance, i will post back and link the videos once they are out. Want to get the best coverage for the gaming scene?

First of all i want to apologize for the delay (#6 will come out soon i promise and this will be some match up stuff, i.e. things that you can punish and stuff like that since i have a lot of request for this i will start doing these). Managed to do what i can. the video does not have a very good description so just read this stuff.



dmg / Stun

Cr.fp, close rh 210 / 300

Cr.fp, far rh 210 / 350

Cr.fp sweep 210 / 350

Cr.fp, close fp 190 / 250

Cr.fp far fp 240 / 350

Cr.fp lk wk 230 / 350

Cr.fp mk wk 250 / 350

Cr.fp rh wk 270 / 350

Cr.fp close mp 160 / 200

Cr.fp far mp 190 / 250

cr.fp = crouching fierce punch

mp/lk/mk/rh = medium punch/light kick/medium kick/roundhouse

Cr.fp rh wheel kick doesn't work on - guile, dhalsim, blanka, chun, fei, rose, bison, balrog, seth.

Cr.fp rh wheel kick crosses up on everyone but the above AND to do it on sagat/zangief, you have to be spaced out far enough (pretty much max range for cr.fp) and do the rh wheel kick / it wont cross them up. oh and E.Honda, you can do any version wheel kick at point blank and it will never cross him up, best option to do if you get cr.fp in the corner against honda.

Cr.fp mk wheel kick crosses up on everyone but gen, honda, vega, fuerte.

notes:

*in the video, i do 3 sets of wheel kicks against ryu, first one with lk wheel kick, 2nd mk, 3rd rh showing you what happens afterwards. i dont recommend doing this against characters that you will cross up since they can quick get up and now you are in the corner. i also do 3 sets of wheel kick against honda, same thing but showing you that you cant cross him up after you do (insert strength) wheel kick.

* for cr.fp far roundhouse / fierce, you most likely will have to slightly walk back so it almost doesnt even look like you even took a step back.

* to do the mk wheel kick against sagat/zangief in the corner you have to cancel as late as possible. if you cancel too fast you will whiff and now you are in the corner. when you hit the mk wheel kick against these 2 in the corner, you will not cross them up.

This Labor Day weekend there is a socal major tournament ran by John Rog and Kai! They have been working hard to make sure everything will be smooth and I am sure it will be. If your in socal / in the area this weekend you should stop by! Here is the website for all the information about this tournament. http://www.warzonetournament.com/. This will also be my first tournament ever since sbo qualifiers at Denjin Arcade. I have not really played serious ever since, became more of a casual player. But that is another story.
