Fireball Test - Shotos

[Avetsuga]

Man the music doesn't help... Im watching this is the morning....when its still dark...

[2BCBattlefield]

Doesnt it make sense that Ryu has the best overall fireball in the game? It kinda is his trademark

[nswrth]

how about comparing ex psycho crusher with them? Lord

[Tuminure]

Dan's fireballs are the best. Why to compare those character fireballs when you can play Dan?

[tonyzigelman]

thumbs up if skrillex brought u here

[nguyencaotran]

Ken hadoken is slow

[wildreams]

Where is Sakura?

If you remake this vid remember to add in Evil Ryu and Oni as well.

[majorivan]

love the video.

wouldn't mind seeing one comparing sagat's in with the rest because i found that when i wanted to beet n00bs who would do nothing but spam hadukens,on sfIV volt on my iphone, that sagat's were much faster, could only be for volt or it could've just been me being faster idk

[KineruMuzunaki]

Wow, I didn't expect Ken's EX to be the fastest.

[xXIKE455Xx]

lol what about akumas air hadoken tho?

[yourleftnut1]

nice.. i like it..

[SAlpsu]

There's a new one for arcade edition. Looks like Akuma's was slowed down :( watch?v=T9krEigFETg

[sega369]

ken seems to be slower

[Raymondo2123]

Where the hell is Dan? >:(

[cougher989]

Whoa that just reminded me of when Goku's spirit was helping Gohan against Cell. Nostalgia... *tears*

[jecoharman]

balrog is beast

[fawfulhaschortles]

LOL Ken's EX Hadoken travels faster than Ryu's and Akuma's EX Hadokens.

[Gumby518]

Dammit Ken! Once again you've proven America is slower than Japan

[Danieldx22]

@Gumby518 ken have the faster ex hadouken.

[RikiOhRed]

That afterimage of all three of them at once gives me an idea for Seth.

imagine if there were 3 afterimages for 3 different players, changing after a moment to a random set of characters next. The only thing that stays the same is Seth in the middle.

[MrLolKins]

I liked the bit where he threw a fireball

[TheEpicServer]

Lol kens EX beats ryu and akumas?

[bajablaster]

what about Dan's fireball?

[xRisingForcex]

haha what song is this

[belmontzar]

yeah now im curious abotu the other fire ball users, Sakura, Dan and sagat

[monkofunk212]

this is awesome but to be honest none of this really matters.....because as we just witnessed balrog eats fireballs for breakfast xD

[2biguns]

sweet video. 5/5 :)

[RandomAHOL]

1:31: Taste the rainbow

[PikminExpert]

Dan should have been in there for lolz.

[gonholiday]

Nice stuff.

[KeitaroHirochi]

Boxer with Seiei-Enbu ftw.

[rivalintraining]

hmm so ken ex hado faster and all hados..... interesting... note 2 self while fighting daigo

[Hopeinawe]

COOL VID. YOU ON XBOBX LIVE?

MY GAMER TAG IS Hope n awe 8)

[TheGosu]

Wonder what would happen if Sagat were to be added into the equation.

[aznboigee]

if you look carfully at the ex fire balls its actually dan in his pink outfit shooting fireballs :p

[geoffreygeoffry]

I CALL IT RYUKENMA

[FerrariLover79]

What about Dan and Gouken? It would have been funny to see how Dan's compare to the rest xD

[erzu17]

@FerrariLover79 It's a full screen hadouken xD Not a half screen. LOL

[MaxPDavies]

brap editing

[nazeres1]

If they make a character that combines ryu ken and akuma like you did there, that would be godly

[karazyking]

wouldn't it be sick if the 3 were actually one character, and having that triple ex hado as a regular fire ball

[synemon]

that's hella sick

[mcknight9127]

I still hate kens fireball lol

but that triple ex fb was the shit lol

what is the name of this song you used lol

[bznraisu]

i lol'd

[TylerWayMoore]

this video shows that if you wanna spam hadoukens...Ryu's your best bet

[dudeglove]

This vid is...pretty cool.

[KalaskanBullworm]

This looks so sick! Awesome videos overall too.

[Anfmethodjor]

love your vids, great quality

[ACTUALLYrussell]

the vid showed that ryu has the fastest fireball...

[1waza1]

great vid, liked the concept behind it also

[JOELSYKO]

Hey, where's Gouken's data ? :(

[PSTRIPPLEE]

Lool just imagine u can actual choose a character that blends in with ryu ken and akuma.. nd there call him ryugoken

[thecreepyguy]

awesome test

[juanreyes1212]

Add Gouken, Sakura, and Sagat to the mix haha or all the projectile characters lol dayum that would be hella informative.

[sonichurricanedotcom]

Dope concept. The execution isn't quite perfect but i don't think it matters.

You can see them nudging forward slightly, in some clips more than others. Then when you overlay all three Shotos, you can see the training mode grid becoming increasingly mismatched.

But since you have Rog constantly walking backwards, he probably resets the screen before the fireball comes out so the comparisons should still be accurate.

[lordofultima]

@sonichurricanedotcom Yeah the reason why Balrog walks backward is because they nudge forward different amounts when they start their fireball animation and all recover slightly different, being full screen was more important than lining up the multiple images.

[Longshot3181]

@lordofultima dude!!! how did u get all 3 of them stacked on the screen at once like that? that looks tight! nice vid and great example how slight differences can play a factor. 6/5

[GRRAB]

this shits fancy as fuck

[DallamaX]

wanted to see sagat there too

[yes4me]

nicely done 5/5

[Mettleh3d]

Good stuff

[Aerodynamisch]

Nice video.

Great to see the differences, now if only Dan would have joined the mix :P

[ilbeppez]

yay ken ^^

great video.

[Dogysamich]

YES PICTURE IN PICTURE!

Good stuff lol

[mlgsquareeyes]

I thought at first the timing would be really hard to get for you to throw the fire balls at the same time fir each different character but i suppose you made 1 recording and used it for all of them

[blazer4328]

lol put dans fireballs in this too

[kdot123456]

@blazer4328 LMFAO!! That would be amazing, clearly Dan's fireball is the superior one! This video just shows who has the second best fireball properties in the game XD

[vertoxz123]

Ken and Ryu's fb overlapped looked cool, some green/orangy shit. o0

[Viv3kArya]

Hey Mike.

The sheer quality, content and video presentation of all your productions is amazing.

This is another awsome vid. Good job! Keep up the good work.

Vivek

[CLWEric]

1:25 The combined character picture on the top right look like wolf man.

[ZUNECARDSTV]

Great video and great editing, what program do you use?

[lordofultima]

@ZUNECARDSTV Adobe After Effects CS4

[ew0k187]

the triple ex fireball looks SICK

[lordofultima]

@ew0k187 Yeah it all changes color and shit, it's crazy.

[StruC]

Thanks again for another great video

[Nexx]

Overlay and split screen comparison was well done.

Sidenote:

Would loltima come after roflcopter?

lol

rofl

lolcopter

loltima?

[tanyuj]

very interesting...didnt know ex shaku had equal recovery to light punch shaku.

[lordofultima]

@tanyuj And don't forget it's +12 on block, that's quite a huge frame advantage for a blocked fireball.

[MasterBoris86X]

Akuma's hadokens is slower then Ken's and Ryu's. they really need to tone him up in SSF4

[klumzyrice]

I would have to disagree with that comment.

Akuma is actually considered to be a pretty high tier character.. like A-/B+ rating. So I don't know why you would want him to be toned up. The ONLY reason Akuma is not A+ tier is because of his low HP and Stun rating. But that's just my opinion since I don't really play Akuma.. I could be wrong.

[MasterBoris86X]

his defense his pretty low in the game as well. and his Ultra needs that invisibility frame like the other games.

[oShiiiNeo]

@MasterBoris86X his ultra has so many uses its not even funny. You lack experience against good akuma players if you havent noticed the usefulness of akumas raging demon. Ken is the one they need to tone up out of all three shotos.

[lordofultima]

@MasterBoris86X Err, Akuma's Ultra has quite a few invincibility frames in SFIV..You must not realize that Akuma is top tier, eh?

[lordofultima]

@MasterBoris86X Actually Akuma's fireballs are all faster than Ken's except for EX, and Akuma's EX knocks down so it's much better.

[MasterBoris86X]

i see.. but yeah i really don't use Akuma ultra cus it too predictable. and i just started back playing SFIV online. i need to get my mojo back.

[lordofultima]

@MasterBoris86X If you use it at the right time, it is unavoidable. It is not a guess ultra, you have to react to an opponents mistake and punish them with demon.

[MasterBoris86X]

yeah i do that. but some great players i play don't make mistakes. i'll just mind game it. lol

[zypno]

What about Sakura and Gouken?:P

[avin172]

Gouken's LP fireball is the best ^^

[lordofultima]

@avin172 I don't consider him a shoto.
