SSF4 : Sacred Prayer - The T. Hawk Video Tutorial

[jkun22]

is it possible to cross up with condor dive?

[Lazoruz]

One combo you forgot was: Juping Down Feirce to standing Strong to Focus attack. I actualy dose a Strong Punch cancle that costs a metter bar and only regiters as a 2 hit combo but the last attack is unblockable and the 3 hits cause almost 25% damage.

[TheSilversephirot]

This video is soo complete thanks

[ReaperSound]

I've been looking for a good tutorial to play as T.Hawk thank you. My main will always still be Ibuki :D

[Lazoruz]

I main T-Hawk as well, and I gotta say getting those combos off in a fight is tricky at best. Although it would totaly rock to get that 6 hit combo off with the EX specials :) Good Video thanx for the good info.

[ShinobiGarth]

T Hawk's voice doesnt really suit his looks IMO

[Exterminator888]

how do you do standing 360 throw?

[ReaperSound]

@Exterminator888 It's easier than you think. Go to training mode and try moving forward toward your opponent and make the 360 motion going down to back and press a Punch button when you are reaching up on the D-pad/analog stick/arcade stick. You can also do this moving back and do the opposite sweeping the control down to forward to up + punch button. hope this helps. Also works with and 360 motion character grab without jumping. Practice and you'll get it.

[Exterminator888]

@ReaperSound Thanks but then I figured it out by myself, thanks though

[sandmanfreeze]

Friend, i main Hawk and i finally find my MAIN character. It's look like i feel a peace in myself playing with this char. I want to be the BEST Hawk in the world! And i will believe in that!

[Skusioh]

Did Hawk changed? EX Condordive can be performed by hitting 3xP and 3xK even in backwards jump X)

[Nelius88]

Good tutorial do you have any other characters?

[AMKProductions10]

How do you do his ultra and super without jumping? (the full circle ultra)

[Dr0pz0fJuPiteR]

Dumb question, but who is the girl at the end of his victory video? The one he stares at from outside the window?

[bazzjedimaster]

@Dr0pz0fJuPiteR Hawk's wife

[Dr0pz0fJuPiteR]

@bazzjedimaster That's cool. =D Never knew. Thanks.

[john1982cali]

the condor spire never comes out consistently

[freddyo]

@ThaiSenpai That's what she said

[Drezero13]

played street fighter 4 today and hes my favorite out of all the characters thus far! I must master him to kicks some ass in the game.

[chommy]

Such an underrated character, T.Hawk ftw.

[Rabite890]

Very informative. Not terribly fond of the Tekken notations (1-9 instead of directions), but I can figure out what you mean. Definitely something I'll keep around to practice with.

[bls123pop]

Sweet!! i have a friend who mains Hawk and he's been having some trouble. This would definetley help him!!! :)

[mrgingles]

nice man... the wind speak to us!

[wwedeadman85]

are ya a t.hawk player nick?

[NickExtreme1]

@wwedeadman85

Yes, I main T. Hawk as well as Zangief and Hakan.

[TheBoredomOtaku]

@NickExtreme1 Hey I just recently subscribed to you for this useful video, T.Hawk is one of my subs in Arcade Edition and I was wondering if you have any tips on how to deal with some of the tricky charger characters. Against Dictator, Claw, Guile or Blanka I tend to have a lot of trouble, Claw and Blanka are annoying to hit and Guile is hard for me to approach because of his recover for sonic boom and Somersault. I know I'm asking a lot so I don't mind if you PM tips instead :L

[Exterminator888]

@TheBoredomOtaku Its hard, takes practice

[Toomnyusernae]

Second time watching this tutorial. It has everything T. Hawk heh. You should mention the faults of his attacks in your tutorial though I think. One super is like 2 fierce typhoons so it's not always worth it to use it but you never know. Condor dive . . . can be punished so badly I wish it didn't exist.

[zacfitzsimmons]

Why isn't s.mk on there as one of his good pokes? It's his best poke by far and beats out a TON of normals (all of the shoto normals).

[cmcshane06]

How do I pull off the 720 motion required for the ultra on an xbox controller? He always seems to jump!

[KnightX666]

Nice video just picked up thawk this and already got 4100bp with him. Would like to get a set in with ya. I'm sure I can learn a lot. Gt: KnightX666

[kaimisawesome]

i absolutely hate T. Hawk's english voice, i honestly believe him to sound like a fag.

Nice video though, i liked it a lot.

[AWDfreak]

@kaimisawesome His voice in Street Fighter II was perfect! It was either a deep "HOH!" or deep "HMMMMMMMMMMnnnnMMMMMMMMM!!!"

[drunkfux1]

SF noob here, how do i do Double Typhoon?

[NickExtreme1]

@drunkfux1

It's in the video, but the input is 720 motion on a stick or fightpad and a Punch button (AKA Two Circles on a stick or fightpad and a Punch button)

[drunkfux1]

@NickExtreme1  it's not coming out, could you explain in a little more detail please

[MrB1U]

Should mention that close Medium Punch is an amazing anti-air.

[Kbawse]

i bet they had a white dude to do the voice of t hawk.

[MrB1U]

Put up Videos of how hawk players can beat a Shoto, and blanka

[ginsuublade]

Well done

[chaoarecool]

how do you do a 720 on a fight stick



[bjmensz]

@chaoarecool you hold the stick and rotate it 720 degrees. hth.

[mrgosukiller]

@chaoarecool If you have trouble with doing 720s, try to hide it in a jump, focus attack, dash or condor spire. Just 360 twice real fast.

[atlanta777]

this is really well done

[jamheald]

You don't want to be using your hit confirm combos after a fa, I don't know what hawk's hardest hitter is but I would guess it's just mp xx dp or a typhoon for the hard knockdown.

[CjwEvolved]

Really Informative! I'm looking forward to incorporating those combos into my game. Thanks!



[GardioxNebilim]

excellent tut man. my thawk game was already decent but this will bring it up a level

[1dent1f1]

your notations aren't normalized. If you want to use the numpad notation instead of the lettered notations you should switch the top row and bottom row 789 being jumps 123 being crouches. So a dp motion is 623 not 689. Also I would advise using 2 instead of cr. for your poke and block string sections. Just to keep everything aligned.

[NickExtreme1]

@1dent1f1

I noticed that after I uploaded the video, I was like "crap....." when I realized the notations were wrong. Another thing to keep in mind for version 2.0, I guess :P

[palmra]

See My Review on SRK... but

1. Cut the intro and ending movies.

2. Don't don't 390348 variations of the same combo/tick setup

3. Post useful matchup info

4. Find a better sparring partner to showcase playstyle.

5. Mention that EX DP and EX SPD are his only good reversals.

6. Try to stay away from combos that are in the training mode, unless they are absolutely essential to playing T.Hawk.

[NickExtreme1]

@palmra

Responded to your review on SRK.

Thanks for being helpful, I really appreciate it.

[shinms369]

Good shit Nick. Thank for the shout out dude. Love the video. Keep up the god work.

[mrgosukiller]

Awesome! I've recently made the switch from T.Hawk to Rose, but improving my Hawk is still a priority. Never knew I could juggle LP DP to EX DP in the corner.

Thanks for this.

For those who want to play on PSN, my tag is the same as my youtubename.
