SFIII: 3rd Strike - Gunma [群馬選抜] vs Chiba [千葉選抜]

[pookiethegamer]

so what keeps Oro from being top tier?

I have the game but I don't know much about it?

does he have low health or something?

[moonlitearthx14]

He has a horrendous matchup against Chun Li, the most popular character among tournament players. It's seriously one of the worst in the game. But even without, he's barely high tier. He has no game outside his pokes and juggles, though both of those are very good. He can't punish from afar and he only has one launching normal which can be blocked low or high or parried once, that he relies on to set up all his shit. His SA2 and SA3 are great. Health is average. Needs gimmicks.

@moonlitearthx14

What exactly makes him a bad match up to Chun-li? & what does SA mean?

At 4:50 seems like a deadly corner trap, only other person with a corner trap like that is Urien.

[moonlitearthx14]

@pookiethegamer His good pokes go harmlessly over crouching Chun li, and she can crouch forward super on reaction. Oro's priority is also notably bad, and chun li's is notably good, so he tends to lose more often than trade. SA is super art. Oro's supers are incredibly good. Yes the corner traps are incredibly effective, and Oro has no trouble pushing his opponents to corners nor escaping them himself.

[RyukendenY]

Heba's Dudley is quite good.

4:55 WATCH the damage! It starts from chip like activating Genei-Jin sometimes, and it's BRUTAL! I think the 1-button version lasts longer (and might also do more chip).

[CRAPPUCCInoo]

1. genei jin rarely does chip damage.

2. the non-ex version does last a lot longer.

3. the only reason it might do more chip is because it lasts longer. but in terms of chip damage per attack input, ex version will do more chip damage, simply because there are more "rocks" floating.

[Protectobot]

'OOPS...I meant, more like a tick into command grab, genei-jin. EX means a dif # of buttons used during Tengu activation?

[CRAPPUCCInoo]

EX means what every other EX moves mean in third strike. press two buttons while executing (most) special moves to unleash the EX version of the move. oro's specials are all EXable.

and why would you command throw into genei jin?

[Protectobot]

'Sorry :P I messed up and thought I read that ppl were talking about dif versions of Tengu ("ex" version of a super?!?!). I forgot to mention that the command throw was used after GJ was activated, for the case I was mentioning...

[ai2006b]

One of the rare time I see an unblockable get parried, that was nice.

Awesome Oro, too.

[novemberaff]

awesome vid

[RAEN74]

so awsome watching rocks just beat the shit out of yo

[CromulentWord]

great oro. great vid. thanks shend.

[wildrice00]

lol @ the haters rooting against Oro. That man has zen-like patience. How humiliating it must be to play against him.

Great find Shend

[Protectobot]

WHAT haters? I also think that the only players who'd complain about Oros are those who've played against Thanatos or Dirty Music.

[3sstudent]

great matches...

[sowutifmahsnsux]

aroha is a BEAST! LOL @ the crowd at 12:24

[redxmaverick]

Watching Oro beat the hell out of the other team was very entertaining. Gives you some inspiration to play as Oro. xD

[Mariodoot]

Oh. Thanks

[Mariodoot]

Sorry if this is kind of a scrubby question but what's an OCV?

[TheShend]

One Character Victory

[Jinrai]

Yun got what he deserved, plain and simple. Genei Jin THIS!

[RAEN74]

HAAHAH I think that was the single greated Geni Jin HAULT i've ever seen...

[TheShend]

Aroha's Oro almost getting an OCV is Godly and the comeback against Yama's Yun in the 1st round was amazing. Props to Neon who parryed out of the Yagyu Dama Unblockable o_0

[Roew]

man what a team
