Akuma 101: The Demon (part 1)

The first of two parts in my Raging Demon tutorial for Akuma/Gouki in Street Fighter IV. I use the help of picture-in-picture arcade stick footage, slow motion, and my own soothing voice to bring you the information you need to know about this Ultra/Super combo. This first part includes: An Introduction to the Demon, Properties, Shortcuts, and the Focus Crumple Demon.

Check part two for information on Anti-Air Demons (buffers), Reversal Demons (plinks), Shenanigans (kara, palm strike, s.HK), and what you SHOULDN'T do.

@HarryBoI7777 Yes, even for non-charge characters I think the square restrictor plate is the preferred method of play. The shortcut motions are viable and much easier with a square gate.

@lordofultima Even for non charge characters?

@HarryBoI7777 square

@lordofultima for a person new to using a stick would you recomend the octagonal or the square gate?
