[kasumimoon1961]

[lilbig8543]

....damn gootecks

[teamlegendatl]

check out the response for this vid

[Vegeshu]

tostada press!

[Sledge070685]

Good Fuerte.

[blueorange31]

the best characters and moves dont win the game. the best players do.

[0xxgamefreakxx0]

gootecks totally got mind fucked here

[rediance]

VIVA MEXICO!!!

[IamTheMaximum]

Run! Run! Run!

[skiie]

sometimes no commentators is the best commentator.

[Jimnieuwendam]

fuerte is one of the most painfull oponents for balrog.

[Rob8036]

other way around actually

[LeftyHangsLower]

What are you talking about? Balrog beats almost everything Fuerte has with low fierce and jump back fierce.

[SweepTheLegYo]

No. No it's not.

[jrombaoa]

damn, that fuerte is hella good. i'd hate to play against a fuerte like that online

[Versigo]

it looks like el fuerte is the new vega :) yeah, so what if vega's still there ;P

[kinglesterjrsquires]

My two favorite characters going at it...awesome!!! Dunno who to cheer for though.

[ederondotcom]

Haha they are also my 2 favorite characters. But Im more into Fuerte right now cause of his mobility.

[sniperclown]

holy crap he is so fast his speed is imbalance lol now i see a new character to play, el fuerte looks fun to use

[angrykoopa]

they need to stop hiring harvey mudd dropouts to do the commentary

[ezjamin]

Gotta love Fuerte

[micirci]

VAOOWW EL FUERTE INCREDIBLE . :)

[Evidentz07]

Why do people wait until 0 seconds to choose a character. Pisses me off lol Amazing Fuerte though! Viva El Fuerte!

[Hurley1080]

Fuerte=Beast

[uniquewiz]

yun of sf4 :)

[SHADALOO3000]

nah thats more like rufus

[Hurley1080]

He makes me throw my controller :-(

[blaqskillz]

ive gone there b4. some pros are cool. but a majority seem to be elitist douches. they cut in front all day. its hilarious. if they lose, its like their mom just died sometimes.

[datriadx18]

Gooteck's boxer is rly good, but he clearly had limited knowledge of the boxer v fuerte matchup. Fuerte just kept messing up his back charge with all the splashes.

[DonolovesMileyandsk8]

I agree Gootecks most likely is one of the best players for us west coasters but playing against a good fuerte especially Kai's is really fucking confusing

[numnunums]

This announcer needs to shut up.

[d3f1anc3]

Agreed, never use this fucking idiot to do any commentary ever again. Holy shit.

[AbuzzCriminal]

lol yeahhh hes just talking and he sounds like a douche i swear he says everything twice

[bimbo831]

am trying with El Fuerte anybody who want battle me on ps3 add me my screen name is EVO-DRIFTER ( dont for get to capitiized)

[t04n]

ADD ME BigiD

[kapekode]

wow i didnt know kai was a fuerte player

i only knew he was a chun li

very nice match

[kLB]

I think he switched to Chun now.

[thejunkmanlives]

i just find it funny that elf is designed to be played cheesey. if you dont spam those 3 moves over and over you dont have a shot with elf.

[xkingxgrimx]

seriously...my friend mains elf, and all I hear during the match is "tortiiiilllllla"

especially if I try and slow the match down at all, and god forbid I have time to charge a move (as Rog), I literally have to go all normals or else fuerte is jumping at my face or sliding.

But he now fears my abel, I can roll right past all of his body slam setups and the rest of fuerte's garbage gameplay.

[ottokbron]

lol then you havent faced a good elf player

[ZeitgeistXII]

I agree, not only can Abel roll, but he can also use that anti-air throw of his (when timed right) before Elf does his press slam move.

[xkingxgrimx]

yeah man, my pal pretty much stops jumping after I land two of those AA grabs in a round.

Feel's so good to grab a fuerte out of the air with abel after having like 0 options with balrog.

[Daerlansucks]

hahaha what a joke response. IF you want to do XBL battle, i'll use el fuerte and show you what a mix up mindfuck is. Just message me if you want my GT.

[mm44rrcc00]

top notch fuerte player, quality stuff

[StreetTrooper]

I found the good way to beat fuerte is full offense because fuerte relies on the character to block alot do to his pressure he put on you. Kinda like Akira and Goh from VF series

[capoa2]

hes very good against charge characters. esp turdlers

[MIMIC8801]

"Ryan is lost right now"

lmao. I main as Blanka and I DESTROY El Fuerte. But I'm thinking of switching to Fuerte because I like fast and confusing characters

[Chaoskae]

talk about confidence

[datriadx18]

The commentators were right... gootecks didn't seem to have any kind of knowledge of this match-up at all.

[Pencilburner1]

EAT THAT TIERS!!!!

[mloclam7]

block up motha fucka!

[IVFADE2BLACKVI]

that is one sick ass fuerte player

[crapzors]

Nah, gootecks showed no experience versus el fuerte in this fight, its all about dash and when to defend standing.

[shiken]

gootecks was so lost during this match, but that doesn't change the fact that kai plays a monster fuerte

[crapzors]

Yeah, a pro el fuerte player put some serious mind games in the match, charge characters always seems to get caught up on those :D

[GoggleCandy]

I need an arcade stick to improve my Fuerte. I did learn, though, that during the animation for his Ultra, if you hold down forward or back, you change how far he jumps.

[whitecollarhobo]

same for all his moves. I love doing backdash , holding towards and doing the splash. dudes always think you're doing his backdash command throw thing and get hit with a crossup

[GoggleCandy]

Thanks for the tip.  Didn't know it applied to all of his 'jumps'

[Peetar]

Man, Kai is crazy fast.  He punished most of Gootecks jumps ON REACTION with that anti-air leg lock thing.

[GRRAB]

GUACAMOLE LEG THRO

[teenidol12]

;) ;) ;)

randomly run into one of your comments.

[sil80drifts]

damn i was hopeing i would learn something off this match....typical fuerte but thats what u have to do when the oppenent doesnt know what to do ...

[knowskill5]

Is the arcade still like that or they have all chars now?

[howtoread]

The arcade will probably never have the home console characters, Capcom haven't really mentioned it I don't think.

[themanimal07]

hilarious match

[jynxycats]

Fuerte's only game is crossups / mixups on wakeup. If you can survive that, you're in good shape to win.

[RecklessProductions]

El Fuerte is an awesome character

i use him in acade, in london UK!

[Konkaver]

I miss rockefeller's commentary... those thing were hilarious.

[psychicsandwich7]

Terrible commentary.

[Mesmic]

I honestly didn't think El Fuerte could be that broken :P haha. Very well played.

[pvtjhon]

That was awesome. I cant wait until I have money to buy this. My arcade stick I got for christmas JUST for this game is collecting dust. :(

[danielyeh]

arcade inifinity is one of the most ghetto ass arcades in rowland.

[Sciutoman]

Why is the announcer telling them how to play the match sometimes?

[ashjudd]

Stream of consciousness.

[Kenderwood]

very nice job.

[mysticnamja]

u jump towards the wall, then press the joystick towards opposite direction and immediately press medium punch. that makes splash

hp is the grab

[Revakk]

At 2:34 how do you do that grab off the wall?

[transience242]

Fuerte scares the shit out of me because of stuff like this. if I saw someone doing this shit I would have completely no idea what to do.

well played, Kai.

[HyperSonicXtreme]

El Fuerte: BODY SLAM ALL DAY BABY!!

[Stimchi]

El Fuerte completely destroyed Balrog, who didnt know when to use his charge uppercut.

[danieldinho101]

god fuerte. thes good w the air take down. and the fake out.

[lalaborat]

Ho wow. this fuerte player is pretty damn good. I'm impressed how he kept on faking out the other guy to jump and then owned him with his air attack.

[JazzSheep]

FUERTE

[lordofultima]

Kai is a great Fuerte player, he's better sticking with him over Chun.

[DoubleBassAlejo]

Not necessarily, a big part of El Fuerte is that he's a mind game in himself and not many people are used to him and his style. Fuerte is very good now, but as the game progesses, we might see fuerte become a little less usable because people will become more accustomed to fuerte and how to counter him.

[lordofultima]

This may be true, but Kai also does a lot better as El Fuerte, so my statement is true as well, for now anyway.

[TheFonz75]

Frat boy homos!

[CrimsonMemberSora]

Man El Fuerte is a Spammer.

No wonder most people hate him.

[KOkun]

this is my first time seeing el fuerte in action.. and HOLY CRAP. lol

[ice0berg]

get the fuck out of here with that shit, mute it then and turn on ur own music

[cptBraver]

u do realize there's a mute button?

its on the bottom right if u didn't know

[morbentfel]

shut up faggot

[smiley917]

crazy el fuerte wins :O

[ddust]

First --> Its KAI that played EL

2nd --> El Fuerte actually its pretty good character.

[hipopigtan]

y there r no ppl using rufus??? he's a guy with great potential.

[Biginitiald]

He is broken, and seriously not much fun to play with. Alot of people have already learned tactics to demolish him, because almost everyone played him in the beginning. So his tactics arent new or interesting and are sometimes quite predictable.

[hipopigtan]

oic...so u guys are already few steps ahead.

i not really into this game so perhaps rufus moves seem confusing and unpredictable 2 me...

[Biginitiald]

yeah his messiah kick the one where he flails about sideways in the air hits all mid to high till he lands. Then he can go mid with the backflip kick, sweep or overhead.  If you dont see the backflip kick immediatly do a lvl 1 or 2 focus attack. the focus attack will catch the sweep or the overhead. and his dive kick is what they use to throw you off or build meter for ex spin or Messiah kick. Just study his lag and his openings, he has quite a few, hes not too hard to get around.

[dodgers2213]

hmmm.....

[UltraDavid]

good job kai, i like it

[tmwx9]

loved this vid. hat fuerte was awesome. Ill still be watchin gootecks balrog though.

[amazingdany]

What is Fuerte's special (grab) move if I do 270 degree + p or k ? If he has such a move?

[Biginitiald]

you mean 360?

and no he does not have a 360 move, just cause he is CQC and a wrestler does not mean he has that move. Most of his moves are QCF+p/k, QCB+p/k

[amazingdany]

But you gotta admit that a spinning pile driver is much easier with a 270 + p than 360!!!!! Hu hu!

[Biginitiald]

not really cause its easier to rotate from forward to forward than rotate from forward to down back

[amazingdany]

I've been doing "forward to down to back to up (facing any direction)+ p" since Champion Edition and it works 100% and a split second quicker than a full 360!!!! Works wonders standing, upon landing and as getting up.

Only when I have to do a spinning pile-driver super than I actually do a 360 + 270 but only on landing or as getting up.

Just doing a standing 360 will you jump, so I don't know how they manage to a standing 360+270 w/o jumping!

[Biginitiald]

the thing is that they Partition it

they throw out a light kick as they start the motion and then quick rotate the rest of the way during the animation of the light kick

if you are good/quick enough then you will "tick" them and end up grabbing them by the time you reach forward

no offense but the jumping tactic is kinda noobish. u  canalso use the "Green Palm" to partition it

u use a move to put them n "Block Stun" to give you enough time to do the 360/720 motion+p but also keep u from jumping

[amazingdany]

Ah soooooo...

[LynxWinters]

That's buffering, not partitioning.

[Biginitiald]

oh yeah its Charge Partitioning and Buffering

I tend to get those mixed up sometimes

thanx

[Peetar]

To quote Justin Wong on Gootecks' podcast: "I think El Fuerte is top tier."

[MengoMango]

el fuerte lol, horrible character design.

[Biginitiald]

and how is that, he is designed after a Lucha Libre fighter who are all about high flying fancy moves... It fits the play style very well. And the whole cook thing, what wrong with that, he wheres a traditional kinda french style outfit as his alt costume.

[ParadoxControl]

El Fuerte is a pretty cool character, not sure what you hate about him. He shares a lot with Fay Long, there both kinda over the top caricatures of what there based on. Fuerte is also a Chef, so you get wacky Chef out fits, and is the reason one of his intros has him holding a pan.

His moves are all really over the top too, just like you would expect a Lucha Libra fighter to have. Hes also crazy fast.

[AliasFang]

LOL!

[SCCVIDEOEDITING]

GOOD LORD IT LOOKS LIKE El players is gonna be spamming that splash

is there any counter to it?

like a ducking fierce?

[cuba]

nope but he can block walking forward since its gonna cross u up.....

or u can focus attack dash cancel = Punish....

but its 50% chance El's Won't Use The Splash Grab or Splash.....

guess it right....??? lol

i Should know.....i Play El Fuerte

xD

[Biginitiald]

that all depends on the character, and yes there is a counter, you just have to figure it out. Or you can jump up/back and Jab or Short depending on char. When i play EL i dont try to use it that much unless i try a cross up game, but most time i mix it up but just keep running back and forth. Keep them guessing, that is Fuerte's game

[ricefarmer]

balrog is the best!

[bdhenderson]

wow, fuerte looks fun as hell to play with. I can't wait til the 19th

[Humbag]

17th :)

[treebobbo]

Get Sanchez back. This commentary is fucking awful.

These videos aren't nearly as fun to watch without commentators.

What happened anyways?

[monkie89]

abysmal commentary.

[ArcadeInfinity]

its the same mic we use every time (good quality). we just level it different every time cuz its dark and we dont remember what the last settings were.

[od3rus]

guys need to make sure thats good or a little low. raising volume on the mic track is WAY WAY WAY better than clipping the mic input. low volume = better than high.

[od3rus]

side note, best video/gamesound quality ever! Good job guys

[SF4socal]

haha kai was ex'ing it up. good shit. i saw this match at AI.

[BradRy2]

Bring back the old announcers!

Kai was a beast. Or it was just plain luck cause Gootecks had no idea what to do and just got mad a little too late.

[EvilNando]

THIS!!!

FFS that announcer was too random

[KanameTousen]

Guys if your going to speak on the video speak about the match

[ZitzBracket]

daaaamn. I'd say Gootecks should never have tried going into the air and instead answered Fuerte with some anti-air normals--but I'm assuming that's what he was trying to do when he was getting wrecked by all those body slams :P probably should've dashed back or focused instead

[s0n1ch3r0]

Did Kai actually drop Chun or has he just been practicing with Fuerte?

[Antzer12]

he's playing both now

[s0n1ch3r0]

Ah, I see. Thanks for the info!

[puertoriqueno361]

A CLASSIC BATTLE OF SPEED VS POWER.

[oOpancakes]

so he dropped chun hm?

[sonicsnake9]

DAMN GOOTECKS GOT WRECKED

[ocelot09]

Great stuff. Nice to see a Fuerte player every once and a while.
