The Official Best Player(s) Of Each Character Thread

[Se7in]

This thread's retarded. Someone please lock.

[gridman]

CAB for zangief, chang and balrog (boxer) (chang/zangief could go to bari too?)

Whoever that dude was that laugh was playing with who played A-Kyo/Terry/Iori is probably the best terry youll see

Morrigan - Buktooth or this one dude on youtube who played her first and took out almost all of daigos team with her. I think his name was nuji but i cant find the vid anymore

Dhalsim / Maki - Iyo

Mai - Rai?

Chun - Mago

Yamazaki - Shiro

Kim/Rugal - Yuu

Sagat - Shiro or Mago

Rock - OTK

Geese - Bari? or maybe actually knit

Todo - 178

Joe - Ver

[Hail And Kill]

jesus christ...

[Nick T.]

who cares?

[DoublexxCyclone]

Vega-Ricky Ortiz

[Gwai Lo ½]

How is this "Official" and why would anyone care?

[YMDSLTSAC]

This could be good as anyone who wants to learn a particular character would know which players to look for, I suppose...

[Se7in]

This could be good as anyone who wants to learn a particular character would know which players to look for, I suppose...

That's the purpose of why I made this thread. I wanted to see which players would be good for looking up lower tier character vids. Though, I could see why some would find this thread idiotic/pointless...

[shoryuken1030]

it's publicity!!!

i assume who are best players from whoever wins Evo whatever year a few times.

[Ouroborus]

whos the best bison user in the USA?

[misterbean97]

whos the best bison user in the USA?

HANDS DOWN, TYRAM

[CMX]

Its helpful for people who read the threads and have a vague idea of the concept but usually people get a much better concept of how and what to do by watching professional people playing that character in particular. I mean don't get me wrong but a video speaks to people alot better then words on paper.

Knit does have the better Geese over Bari. Isn't Nuki's Chun better then Mago's?

Kyo - Makoto

Raiden - Desora

Rolento - crazyasskim

I'm not going to bother to name anymore to add to gridman's list unless someone really would like to know who to look up on youtube to learn how to play a character.

[Viscant]

Put me down for C-Kyosuke, K-Chang and N-Yuri.

--Jay Snyder
Viscant@aol.com

[Mizuki]

Best S-Ryo here.

[True_Tech]

i would be interested in best hibiki specifically best a hibiki

[Buktooth]

Put me down for C-Kyosuke... and N-Yuri.

negative.

give me those, c-joe, n-vice, p-beni, a-dan, n-kyo and c-evil ryu

i'd also say c-yun but i'll give edma the props

best bison player in the US is pretty easily gene, best sagat player in the world is probably choi

and CAB sucks, bari is like 50x better

[Hail And Kill]

Hey leezy has a mean Kyosuke too. rival schools!!!

i agree that choi has the best sagat. But then again, ive never played other good ones from Japan.

last time i checked, no one had campbell down for best, and only morrigan. o_o

[Leezy]

<-- K-Kim, Eagle, Morrigan, Kyosuke

I wanna say C-Kim, but I'll take a tie with Japanese dudes

John is definitely best Sagat around. I haven't played Japanese ones, but I've seen plenty of matches, and they just can't do what he does with Mr. Eyepatch.

I'm comfortable saying Campbell has all 3 of his main (N-Iori, Morrigan, Hibiki) and N-Vice.

Gene has best Bison in USA.

Ricky has best Gayga...probably Sakura, too.

I'll second Kim HAH! for Rolento. Japanese might play better sometimes, but the amount of knowledge and execution he has with stickboy is impressive to me.

Oh, I have to make sure to kiss Keith's pretty little ass, too. K-Maki for sure.

[gridman]

going off of videos, Shiro seems to have choi's sagat beat. might just be me but it seems like it.

[Maj]

Dibs on C-Gief!

Edit: I think this whole thing would have worked better as a video archive. That way you get straight to the point without having to deal with what happened here. That way if there is debate over best players, at least it's constructive and at least there are examples to discuss.

[MonsterZodd]

put down ohnuki for n-akuma i would imagine too, best ive seen on tape at least.

[Mizuki]

Is there any vids of Buktooth owning with N-Vice?

[Yos]

whos the best blanka and ken user in the USA?

[popoblo]

blanka? probably ricky just because he gets results with his blanka.

ken? C-ken goes to choi, K-ken to combofiend.

gimme A-eagle!

[Sage]

gimme A-eagle!

Combofriend?

[Yos]

blanka? probably ricky just because he gets results with his blanka.

ken? C-ken goes to choi, K-ken to combofiend.

C-ken for choi and K-ken for combofiend. apple and orange :tup:

and best C-blanka "kim HAH!"

C-vega Jwong

[Mizuki]

gimme A-eagle!

I'll let you have him for best because I haven't been to tourneys with him, and you've been "A-EAGLE IS GOOD" for years. =P

Combofriend?

He doesn't deserve it, he dropped A-Eagle. Tsk tsk =D

[ThatKenPlayer]

I need props for k-yun.Hes a beast and yall know it

[Lobelia Mk. IV]

Dibs on N-Athena.

[Mizuki]

Wall has a pretty sick K rog. I do too when I pick him by mistake and proceed to jumping jab the shit out of everybody.

[shmy]

I'm probably the best C - Sub Zero ... unless anyone has valid facts to argue ...?

I give Leezy K - Guile too, because I don't think anyone else in the world uses Guile in K!

Who has the best Mai? Some Rai guy? I wanna watch some vids on her.

[RyanTheRobot]

Whos got the best C-Guile I could check out?

[DoublexxCyclone]

Iyo-Japan

John Choi- States

[Shadow Ace 50]

what about sakura, chang, and vega? who has got them


also do you guys know any great p-groove users?

[gridman]

uhh iyo doesnt play guile?

Best guile in the world is nakanishi
Chang is either bari or 178

Vega and Sak are bas hands down

[popoblo]

Vega and Sak are bas hands down

errr, i'd give vega to bas, but sakura could go to kindevu, kok, uma, or maybe even ricky ortiz. bas dropped sakura a long time ago for honda and then vega. although he may play her every now and then, he definitely does not have the best one.

[Ouroborus]

uma and kindevu has the best sak hands down

[supermin]

dave chappelles sak is smooth as eggs

[Luigi-Bo 87]

Who's the best Maki player? I also gotta know who plays a mean Dan cuz that guy has to be a pimp.

Maki - Iyo (I can't think of any Dan players.)

[Hail And Kill]

sakura = UMA and KOK

[Atb_555]

Appart from Yuu (who uses C Groove) who has a decent K or N Kim?

[CMX]

Leezy plays K-Kim

[Atb_555]

I've seen one vid of his K-Kim I think it was an EVO West vid. Pretty good I must say.

[randomsuper]

his k kim is nice. i don't know how anyone can combo into his super off of a standing lk. i always mess it up.

[Atb_555]

http://forums.shoryuken.com/showpost.php?p=3866921&postcount=3148

kakihara post this in another thread which is technically correct as the command list shows that only: d, db, f + K is required to do the super. Since its easier to do a smooth rotation rather than hit inputs accurately it works. You can even do d,d + hk (hold for stance). Then simply hold d and do an lp for the straight kick after that quick cancel it into hcf + k to combo. Even works with Lvl 1s at decent range!

[pIGadOkeN]

jay's naka is gdlk

[Atb_555]

Appart from Daigo are there any other good Guile players? Preferably in N - groove.

[tetsuye00]

Nakanishi and John Choi are the current "best" Guile players. Does anyone play N-Guile seriously?

[Atb_555]

His lvl 1's aren't that bad and he can guard crush quite well. His low jumps don't seem too bad either. But yeah C is his best for damage when you get the oppertunity.

[geadom]

Isnt there any Eagle users, besides Combofiend? C-Eagle, to be more precise.

[Leezy]

Bhushan's C-Eagle has moments. I play C-Eagle casually, and he does well. He's really boring to me in C, though...but he does have the same hit confirm tricks he does in K, and it works with lvl 2s, so he can cancel afterwards and save meter. He's frustrating to play against in C 'cause he's kinda like Vega...he just pokes at you until you get annoyed and mess up. He can combo and do mad damage, though, unlike Vega. Air blocking helps him, and his dash is good. RC spinning stick move is good, and great against tall characters.

[Mizuki]

Like it even matters, but I play him. I don't know if I'll use C or A at evo this year. And CF used A Eagle.

Rusty has the hot A-Rorento.

Knit/Nitto: K-Geese

For P-Kyo, could be Makoto in his prime, Deshiken or Yoda on a good day.

[Xenomic]

I'm curious as to who can play a really good Mai (in any Groove, or her best Grooves actually). I want to see how my way compares to these other people's ways of using her.

[GunterJPN]

Rai's K-Mai is pretty good. YouTube it.

[randomsuper]

gunter, how good is ao in real life? i've watched him play and he looks insanely solid with that k ryu.

[Shin-Chan]

GunterJPN: I did... found nothing bout him.... only Iyo and some old matches of him too but no Keith =\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

[Onikage]

Search for 'rollcancel', I'm 99% sure he's got some Rai vids on his YouTube acct.

[Shin-Chan]

ops sorry.. u sayd Rai.... serching....

[GunterJPN]

gunter, how good is ao in real life? i've watched him play and he looks insanely solid with that k ryu.

AO is in the top 3 for k-groove players in Tokyo. He's really good, but I think that his Ryu is the weak link in his team.

[randomsuper]

that's surprising since most of the vids i've seen with him he usually ends up winning or doing really well against some of ryu's worst match ups. i still remember the first time i saw him was vs dan and i was impressed.

[iKlEiTlH]

iyo should have a whole bunch of vids on youtube.

me vs choi was nasty. i swear to god i didn't mean to do wakeup punch super (seeing as how there's no reason to use that over wakeup 720 anyway). it was supposed to be wakeup air 720. dumbass execution.

i got a whole bunch of vids of myself playing sets with decent/top players, but yeah never thought of posting them up.

i guess i can.

[Hail And Kill]

fuckin scrub. you know you wanted wake up punch super.

[iKlEiTlH]

get my balls out your mouth before speaking.

i can't tell what you're saying.

Kyo was beasting though :tup:

[Hellion]

What I like about that man's Sagat is that he seems to keep his cool when he's within a fierce's worth of death.
Cool endings are his specialty it seems by looking at those vids.

random supers and random fierce dps, barelly any ground game, and alot of rolls and jumps. i know someone who definetly has a better balrog then that. outside of the few hitconfirms they aren't worth mentioning.

I'm talking about the whole team in general as well, not just the Balrog. Just cause they can do some hitconfirms doesn't make them good, from what they displayed majority of the match.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piGId3iBw1M Sagat is the man
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=levVhSzgDX0 beastin Kyo

i didn't see anyone else mention this...but in the first video @ 3:15 in the match ao combos a cr. fierce(counter hit) with a cr. forward while raged imagine if he got off a high tiger cannon..that bitch is gonna lose tons of life..i don't think he expected it to connect probably just sticking it out there for poke purposes but that would have been so sick..

after trying it out repeatedly..its incredibly hard to time..just as sagat slides back from the cr.fierce you can like the forward add in a crouched tiger cannon and you got a combo worth 9060pts(at full bar) plus the 28 stun you just dropped on em....The emperor owns you bitches

[Hellion]

probably his counter-hit setup. Hard to time but if you're actively looking for it you'll have that situational scenario on lock.
