Akuma's st. RH loop, back in Super Street Fighter 4

[x3azn4]

wait hold on a sec, how does crouch mp combo into sweep.... thought that has to be a counter to combo....how is that possible?

[Virtualwallvirus]

@x3azn4 I was thinking the exact same thing!!

[beebo1234]

Just made my own variation of an Akuma Roundhouse loop today. The end of the combo should have a lot of you surprised. Check it out.

@beebo1234 good stuff man. Just so you know and to cover my back in case you think I've nicked your idea, lol. I got all of the footage for my akuma vid 2 days ago and my vs abel variation is... j. RH, cr. LP, cr. MP, st. LP, st. RH, cr. MP/MK xx fb xx fadc, cr. MP, st. LP, st. RH, cr. MP/MK xx fb xx fadc, cr. MP, st. LP, st. RH, st. LP, st. LP, st. RH, cr. RH. 23 hits,outside of training mode. Abel is one of the few characters that gets hit meaty by the 2nd hit of RH, making the sweep possible.

[beebo1234]

@biffotasty Sounds insane, I wouldn't mind at all either way heh. I enjoy watching all of your SSF4 videos and I really look forward to this new Akuma one you have coming up. Keep up the good work man. Out of curiosity, what does CMV stand for?

[biffotasty]

@beebo1234 Cool, hope I didn't sound too defensive, lol. Your combo is sick btw, figuring a way to get that jab to connect meaty mid-combo is awesome. I spent tons of time trying to get set-ups in the days after uploading this vid. CMV generally stands for Combo Music Video. Sometimes (on my vids) I want it to stand for Combo Mania Vehicle or Curious Madrigal Vortex... Maybe.

[meirus]

Just wanted to let you know, you're the english version of Sakonoko.

[SaiCaI]

Hey Desk, you ever play in tournaments?

[SpyX06]

Nice combo

[cartmanshome]

i thought that the st.lp to st.hk loop was always in the game but much harder to do once super came out. im pretty sure its still in the akuma trials somewhere.

[phar4oh]

That combo looks easy. Just like brain surgery and theoretical physics

[BBoyPhreshershist]

so desk do you plink? or double tap? or both?

[malgab]

Show us infinit loop or gtfo :/

[BBoyPhreshershist]

@malgab infinites are dumb to learn in ssf4 which is why nobody does them :P

[malgab]

@BBoyPhreshershist The title is a lie !

[djgeki]

@malgab Yeah! It sure is! He isn't doing a s.HK, then some other move, then another s.HK. Oh wait, that's EXACTLY what he's doing!

[djgeki]

@malgab Yeah! It sure is! He isn't doing a s.HK, then some other move, then another s.HK. Oh wait, that's EXACTLY what he's doing!

It may not be infinite, but it's definitely a loop.

[fightlikegentlemen]

is this old news or was there a patch that put the loop into ssf4 because i knew you could do it in sf4 but people said you couldn't do it in ssf4. you would think they would of took the loop out when they got rid of the feilong loop but oh well rejoice akuma players lol

[djgeki]

@fightlikegentlemen It's not an infinite loop like it was in vanilla.

[lordofultima]

@djgeki It was never an infinite loop. Ever.

[djgeki]

@lordofultima Suppose I mistyped... I should've said, "unnecessarily lengthy loop" instead of "infinite. I was stretching the utility of the word :)

[spotlesseden]

2 reps doesn't equal to loop. I saw Tokido did 2 reps before. yeah fadc doesn't counter either.

[SVN4]

please put in the description the names of the characters

[mr12000dotexe]

Jesus, 3xcr.mp to sweep... Rufus is one fat muhfuka.

[Jerails]

@mr12000dotexe

I think another of Desk's videos has 4xcr.mp on E.Honda, and follows it up with EX fireball. So meaty those characters!

[tukk3]

hey that last combo cr.mp into sweep, what characters does that work on?

[Sephlock]

So in what way is the timing different, or is it spacing rather than timing (because you want to hit on the second active frame) ?

[Wack0Br0]

I thought cr.mp > sweep was only possible with a counter hit

is that character specific?

[Realmasterorder]

Loops are ok but could overpower him what Akuma could use without anyone having any brain complaining is a Decent 2nd Ultra 

[hosnflos]

@Realmasterorder

punctuation is your friend. Try using it sometime.

[tukk3]

@hosnflos lol i agree

[Realmasterorder]

@hosnflos english is not my native language for one, but i know it better than many that write comments around here.

So unless it is really too hard for you to understand what i mean better keep these remarks for yourself.specially since you do not know me i am not a kid and you are talking to someone that is very likely much older than you.

[langdonx]

lordofultima was doing this back in June... why aren't any Akuma players implementing this still? /watch?v=5J6jyiTEjig

[sheeplols]

You have to post a video showing how to do this, please!

[sheeplols]

0:26 three cr.mp into sweep? That's pretty sick.

[error00001]

Is the frame data wrong or did the patch it?

[ThePsychoCrusher89]

tell me the truth, are you a robot?

[abcdefghilihgfedcba]

I thought it was long known the loop still worked but with less reps?

[biffotasty]

@abcdefghilihgfedcba I've never seen anyone combo into st. RH ever. There's one or 2 vids that start with RH, jab, RH, jab etc but that's no more than a proof of concept because it's never going to happen. I have set-up vs loads of characters that begin with [cr. jab/cr. short/cr. strong/st. strong/jump ins/crumple/demon flip/sweep range cr. forward ] etc.

[Sol3Chris]

@biffotasty yea some dudes where doing it on sagat like 2 days before the release day but is still good to know it works on other chars

[femtau]

:D niceeee i did this once by accident but i assumed it didnt combo xD

[AnonymousUsar]

Why do you only have a maximum of 45 videos on your channel? What if someone wanted to view older ones?

[budojon]

excellent discovery !!!

[s0n1ch3r0]

I have read that description, and thank you sir, you have a nice day as well. :)

[FREEdomxxxZGMFX10A]

Is this new?

[darksylux101]

Theres always a way.....

[TheGosu]

CRISSSSSSSSSPY links.

[iorilamia]

show your face

[SithLordRagnos]

I remember this was one of the first changes CAPCOM announced for SSF4.

Ahh, it's like they don't even care...

[Udermench]

excellent, can you pm me the list of characters it works on? iv noticed it works on honda and dudley and now rufus. great stuff, also 3 low strongs into sweep is gdlk

[eskimothunder]

think this is muh fav, biff vid because of the lowfi qua, pure, "lets exam this game" qual, idsna zzm :D:D:D:D

[thewarrior195]

idk if you do requests or consider anything in the comments, but could you possibly do something with Guy?

=)

[OreoYifu]

too bad it wont work on med to small hitbox characters =\

[biffotasty]

@OreoYifu I've got at least 2 reps on 13 characters so far. Including seth, fuerte and claw.

[OreoYifu]

@biffotasty well damn i take it back o.O i must be doing it wrong

[ABONESR]

i wish you had the stun on.. looks stunning! and damage is something too

[ILOVETODANCELOL]

A nice day to you too, sir.

Nice little find.
