SSF4 Youtube Vids!

so im gonna start recording myself playing games online like i used too. note they might not be the best of players but its something to watch. its online so it doesn't really matter to me. i just have fun and mess around/do random stuff online cuz we all know its offline that counts. I have a different mind set when playing in tournaments offline than when i play online, its like 2 different people and i think you shouldn't take online serious for the most part. I'm gonna try to record more matches but my camera corrupts a few vids here and there when i record + transfer to my computer. Oh and shitty camera angles so far but bare with me! i didn't know it was in a bad spot and im trying to find a better position for it. oh and if you ever want to play a few games post up/pm me onsrk or somethin and ill try to get some games in with you. its not fun playing random ppl all the time.

Here's a couple vids of the batch i uploaded.

SF4 Biweekly TACV 07: Abel

Maj has made a few of these and they are all pretty cool. check them out here!

Abel Tricks and Tips: Honda

So here is another video, (changing the name since i dont do them weekly hah) but this one is on Honda. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Oh and i forgot i left out a few clips but and i dont want to redo/reupload it since i just found out but if Honda ever does a random butt stomp you can cr.fp (2nd hit) or st.fp on his way down. Leave a comment and tell me what you think! feel free to criticize or give suggestions/what you would like to see next or in the future!

What is Top Tier Gaming?

Top Tier Gaming is a channel that will be streaming gaming related live media on Justin TV.

What can I expect to see/ gain?

Live streamed tourneys and casuals almost every weekend from top arcades down here in SoCal. Two of these awesome arcades are Denjin Arcade and Arcade Infinity, the top two places to play SFIV in California.

That sounds great, anything else?

Yeah, that's just the start of it. We will be throwing massive online tourneys that will be streamed straight through Top Tier Gaming's JTV feed. Not only that, we will have an assortment of prizes for these games as time goes.

Wow, I can't wait, how much does this all cost?

Are you an idiot? It's free!!! All we kindly ask of you is to donate what you can to the benefit. None of the donated money goes into our pockets but it is used for maintaining the upcoming site and also allowing us to help stream any and all TOURNAMENTS that we are able to attend. Instead of getting the shaft and seeing a couple BB matches we will be able to show you entire tournaments and get you all the highlights of BB or any game for that matter including player interviews and tips from other pros. We will not only stop there but show the hype that goes down with many of these huge money matches or just casuals all night. If you though SBO Japanese chopstick ass cracking was L337 you're not gonna wanna miss this.

We will be having our first broadcast in the next coming weeks and we will post on here when we have set a time and date.

Abel Clip of The Week #6!!

With a long break from making videos i finally made another one. Very sorry for this but just too much going on lately and my stick sucking ass doesn't help. directions go out a lot and i need to buy a new stick but dont really wanna spend the money on that right now. It's hard to make videos without a good stick so i can properly do them so i will try to make do with what i already have and i guess i gotta leave out some stuff. There is a bunch of things i left out i know, but thats how it will be when i make these types of videos because i dont really want super long videos. anyways here is the Clip! its regarding some situational stuff against zangief. hope you guys enjoy and any feedback is appreciated!

West Coast Warzone Videos Are Up!

So West Coast Warzone Videos are up and they are still finishing up some videos. Check it out! http://westcoastwarzonevideos.com/ if you are bored and want to watch high level play definitely watch these videos! If you want to see the other videos you have to wait, they are doing their best to get all their videos out asap BUT you can sign up, giving them your email in the box to the right and they will email you with updates on videos when they come out!

Abel Clip of The Week #4

Okay so I feel bad about putting out the last clip of the week so late so I am putting the #4 out right now! Oh and i found a way to get sf4 on the pc for cheap (not gonna post how) but i got sf4 for pc and recorded with fraps so now my cotw's will be in game quality! Anyways I think (i can be wrong) but people don't know many options if you focus back dash and get the crumple. people usually just sweep but you can do more damage than that! check it out.

The last reset is just showing some options you can do after it. i was just demonstrating what you can do. obviously you can do more than that, you can (after focus back dash crumple) dash forward and do medium kick (not f+mk but the one that looks just like it) and roll but if you want to cross up you have to use mk roll. I am pretty sure that after you see that last reset you can figure out what else you can do, pretty much dash up and do any normal where you can cancel and it will work but the cr.lp/lk dash is the best one if you are going to dash forward and do a normal (imo). So tell me what you think and give some feedback! Hope you guys liked/learned from it and next week cotw #5 so stay tuned for that! also if you guys have any suggestions or anything or want me to do a video on a specific thing then pm me on shoryuken or leave a comment here.

Clip/Tip of The Week #3

Sorry for the delay but with school starting up and other things going on i couldn't get it out as soon as i thought i would. Anyways here it is. I have had a few questions from people asking about the timing of cr.fp (anti air) ultra so here it is.

Oh and i wanted to add this in but forgot. If your cr.fp trades with your opponent you can ultra immediately because once you get out of hit stun you will just hit them with the ultra because they will be at mid/far range when you trade (or most likely will be). I am prepared for the next clip/tip of the week so that one will not come out as late as this one. sorry about that but school is gonna keep me busy so if i dont get the video out for that week, ill post 2 cotw's in the next. Any feedback or suggestions or anything would be appreciated!

Clip/Tip Of The Week #2!

hey guys back with another clip/tip of the week! so some of you may/may not know about this but either way you learn something/ i will refresh you with it but here it is. against your opponent you can do cr.lk, cr.lp, st.mp/fp xx CoD. Here is a video of me showing you this combo.

* able to do this w/o f+mk - bison, fuerte, cammy

* able to do only after f+mk - sakura, dan, gen, abel, viper, balrog, vega/claw, sagat, seth, ken, ryu, dhalsim, fei, akuma, gouken

* characters you can't do it against - rose, rufus, honda, zangief, guile, chun, blanka

Note that in the video i do forward medium kick dash before i do this combo. you are thinking to yourself that it didn't combo. well you are right, the reason i did that is because against most characters you have to do this in order for this to work unless it is on a counter hit. Although if you do this on fuerte, bison/dictator or cammy you dont have to do the f+mk before the combo and you will get all the hits. weird but thats how it works. oh and for cammy if you do f+mk dash and try to do this combo you will be out of range too, i know i know this stuff is weird but can be useful. I posted this one because it is a good hit confirm into CoD which is what every abel player would like to land. For instance if you do f+mk dash cr.lk, cr.lp and they blocked both, you dont have to follow up with mp/fp, you can go ahead and either continue the block string or throw/command throw or something but if it hits then continue with the combo. if they are crouching i would recommend doing st.mp instead of fp to make sure it hits since st.fp whiffs on a lot of crouching characters but st.mp hits every crouching character. hope you guys liked it and any feedback would be great. another clip/tip next week!

oh and my Q and A's thing will come out soon. i had a lot of questions and i cut it down to only a few just so its not like 1-2 pages long. will be out this week/weekend.

Clip/Tip Of The Week!

So Here is my new thing i will try to update every week if i can. hopefully i will but who knows :P anyways this is some stuff you might want to know with the standing roundhouse overhead move. I am balrog in this video, i recorded abel to do this in training mode.

That video i demonstrated the combo, it stuffs headbutt so if you are playing a headbutt happy balrog/boxer this is your answer. Although it does stuff headbutt it does not stuff EX headbutt like i demonstrated also. The combo is st.rh f+mk dash st.fp xx CoD. This is on counter hit and can only be done on counter hit. If you manage to get the counter hit using the overhead version of roundhouse than this will work on anyone.

on counter hit using this you can also do:

st.rh, cr.mp, mp CoD - it works on everyone but sagat, figures... haha

st.rh into super - works on everyone

st.rh, st.mp xx super - mid screen - vega, honda, chun, dhalsim, gouken. in the corner - bison/dictator, fei long, and akuma. (i did not test everyone in the corner sorry for laziness)

st.rh cr.lk xx super - vega, viper, rufus, bison/dictator, honda, ken, ryu, chun, fei, cammy, akuma, gouken, dan, rose, and sakura.

*note this is only on counter hit.

Well there it is, hopefully this was somewhat useful or interesting to you. tell me what you think or what i should add for future reference. Next week i will put another clip or tip hopefully so stay tuned!

My Abel Mix Up Video.

i was going to upload it here first but i had problems so i had to upload to youtube. well, here it is.

Ex CoD xx Ex Roll

Just uploading a few videos that I already have here. I am still going to mess around with this stuff and hopefully produce more videos of actual game play where i use this. I haven't managed to do ex CoD xx ex CoD yet but I will work on it. I haven't messed around with this as much as I wanted to but in a few weeks this will change. Well here are some small videos with my button inputs. Enjoy!



Ex CoD xx Ex Marceaux Roll

note* there is 1 more video that needs to be uploaded but I am having trouble getting it up. It will be up asap.

Ex CoD xx Super

Ex Change of Direction xx Super

Ex Change of Direction xx Ex Wheel Kick

Early February i was inspired by Keno (socal balrog) to try something out. He found out about Balrog's Ex amor tricks. Abel's was done before but nobody really experimented with it as much. I then did it but it was hard since i had to do it in the arcades. I am going to be making a video showing all of them and here is a small sample i made with button inputs!!

Abel Videos!

Just wanted to let all you Abel fans know that I have been uploading some videos that I recorded of me playing online. I will also be uploading/making other videos that aren't casuals or w/e. http://www.youtube.com/user/xbstx Subscribe to my youtube account so you know when my newest videos come out!
