Stop sucking so fucking much. Stop jumping back and doing a air fireball at the start of every round. Stop doing akuma's dive kick and go straight into his firece hurricane kick. Stop using his demon rage if you cant kara it. Stop being so fucking predictable. Stop fucking playing akuma cause he has nothing but online lag tactics and this why some of you players will never get better. You dont make my game better you are too easy to own!
Just had to get that off my chest.

:chat: I don't think they can hear you PJ. :rofl: TYPE LOUDER. Actually, I have no problem against them when I'm using Twelve since Twelve's EX N.D.L is a free hit when they start jumping away shooting air fireballs. It's a free hit+knock down and allows me to get into invisible mode then go to work on them... dood!

Lol yea they probably cant. I dont lose to these scrub Akumas, its that they drain the life out of the game. I dont care about my record, hell ive been playing with Makoto alot lately trying to learn her and get better. Picking only Akuma and playing with these predictable ass tactics is just freaking boring as hell. Makes me get off XBL in a jiffy.

How To Play Akuma On Xbox 360 101
Step 1
Utilize Your range and be completly predictable by jumping backwards at the start of the match and throwing out an Air Hadouken. Thats right Folks, YTIMND...Your The Invincible Man Now Dog!
Step 2
Learn Your Opponents Weakness...actually as a matter of fact, There's nothing to learn! Every Akuma Opponent has the Same Weakness! It's great! Simply bring them to a corner and trap them there...from this point, You must follow these very important steps to achieve Success: Jump Vertically Upwards Until Your Air Bound and throw an Air Hadouken! Then Repeat until you get Shoryuken'd Or Parried...It's challenging but you too can be a pro Akuma Player just like our hero Victriny3, Say Hi Victriny!
Victriny3: . . .-
Heh, That's Our Victriny...Mastering the art of the "Drop", Way to go :)
Step 3
Another advantage Akuma has over every opponent is the ability to cause extra damage solely on the Xbox 360 Console!! Thats right, and if your reading this guide you've probably just smiled a bit and realized that You are Teh Winzorz for aquiring and Xbox 360 :) Moving on, to perform this crushing move on your opponent...on Knock down, quickly perform a Tetsumaki Senpuu or as most know, The Hurricane Kick to your downed opponenet and watch them get kicked in the Cerebellum on their return to their feet :), It's FanTASTIC!!
Step 4
Only utilize Akuma best Xbox 360 Special! The Messatsu Goushoryu! It's perfect for afternoon chest rapings and is sure to bring every person you fight to their knees damning everyone to hell!! But wait....There's More...this move is rendered irrelevant if you don't know how to link it!! Wouldn't want to throw more then 39 Missed Super Arts in a match...because we all know that 39 is the limit, right Victriny?
Victriny3: . . .-
Hah, He's so not in the vicinity anymore...anywho, to do this fantabulous link to your opponent sure to make them squirm...you'll need to Perform this special on wake up or variation type two which is jump over to your opponent and once you land throw out the super art! It is a sure fire link that is sure to outweigh your opponents blocking options due to the hidden art power Akuma is able to utilize on the Xbox 360...Latencius Assimilation Gayshius or as most people know simply as, LAG :) Which brings us to...
Step 5
This is probably the most useful strategy that will help you boost right up to success in the top 10 rank in the world!! How to screw around with your opponents controls :) It sounds harder then you think...your probably wondering: "But Mr.Huddleston...I don't live with all of my opponents, how could I reach over and smack the controller out of their hand so they look at me with an awry face as their tears well up in their eyes of disbelief that I would do such a haneous act of disrespect to them while in the midst of playing a match? It's Simple...Each Xbox 360 Akuma comes specially packaged, Secretly though...with a wonderous "Top Of The Stage Lag-a-tron 3800"...It's sure to make your opponent jump on the mic and call you a dirty low down bottle of French Lemonade! Ouch...you naughty naughty original Xbox Players!! To perform this stunning action of trickery and deceipt...You will need to replace all of your normal jumping procedures with Super Jumps so you go extra high in the air, this will force not only your screen but their screen to pan upwards thus Akuma raining down hell fiery lag and resulting in your opponent being rendered helpless while they sit there thinking they've performed a move when in all actuality...their just sitting there! It's great kids...it's really great :)
Well that about wraps it up for the in depth guide on how to properly use and demolish your foes online with the master of unfairity in the holiest name of Gouken...Akuma!! Tune in another time as we show you the deep and dark secrets of how to learn Gill!...you'd be suprised to know how to properly Kara-Throw with him :) Until Then...Keep on practicing and never gi-...

I read the first post. Couldn't agree more ProjectJustice. XBL Akuma is crutch play from start to finish. You can apply a massive amount of pressure with him and not have to worry about being parried or punished. You can zone air fireballs and get away with having really shitty timing. Spam dive kicks without needing to worry about anti-air. Hurricane kicks are utterly free and even if you do get blocked, you can wangle the frame disadvantage to your favour by taking even more risks.
I've yet to fathom why they all play SA3. What's that all about!?! :lol:
I'm really sick of the standard of play online and XBL Akumas seem to epitomize everything that is wrong with it. I really want to improve, but there are now less than about 50 good players on Live. You can't learn from playing against mash and crutch XBL drivel. It's not the same game.
I don't wanna veer too O/T, but in the same way, 95% of all XBL Hugos would struggle to ever land a hit offline. His body splash is that easy to parry offline, that XBL players won't know what's hit them.

And I'm not one to spam dive kicks for lag tactics sir. Do you have any idea how slow Necro jumps? If you're running away from me with someone as fast as Ibuki, how the hell else am I supposed to catch up to you? Walk?

I was talking to everyone but since you got on your mic and cried before dropping, I guess I could be especially talking to you. It's nice to know I owned you to the point where you couldn't handle another round with me, your words carry no weight anymore.
This entire topic is ridiculous, people can bitch and moan about Akuma "lag tactics" but I've yet to hear any specifics and until I do it's just an excuse as to why people lose. Not to mention Akuma is way, WAY below the list on characters with balance issues, small stun bar combined with no EX moves and taking more damage than anyone else in the game is a pretty big handicap. You punish 3 of his mistakes and he's done. Characters like Hugo and Ken can kill him with 2 and with a full SA2 bar Makoto can do it in 1. Learn how to combo and you'll soon realize that little air fireballs and dive kicks won't add up, as an Akuma player I have to punish about 6-8 mistakes in order to finish someone off. BTW if you dash forward and do a quick attack you can punish Akumas that start off with an air fireball, you can also throw a slow fireball if you use a shoto, it will hit Akuma and you can evade his. Good players know how to work around them, so start learning.
As for predictability, welcome to fighting games. Every yun will do 20+ dive kicks per round and play a ground game only when SA3 is full, every ken will use SA3 and combo High, Fierce, Shoryuken. Remy's run and neglect their lower defenses, while jump kicking after a projectile. Q lives in the corner, Chun-li abuses her priorities, and Urien throws right angle projectiles and hopes for a lucky shot. This game is old and everyone knows every character's style by now. Sure, there are some exceptions but they're rare and everyone's trying to maximize damage output. Is this seriously news to anyone? Gripe less, practice more.

You must be out of your mind. Top three things I remember the most in our sets.
1. Chasing you. Specially if you decide not to get akuma. Even some times with akuma.
2. You "sounding" like you're mad over the mic, and demanding me to rematch you alot of fights you lose. "Pick him again! Rematch!"
3. You not even being that good at all. I'm not even going to complain about the connection. Also how you tend to like to mix up stories a little bit. I even think you dropped on me before. I sure know you dropped on me on my Secret account. lol. I just don't complain about every one dropping any more unless its more then once in one day.
Just improve on your akuma. It aint dick riding cause i agreed with the man. Its the same shit I'd say to another player that would ask me, "what do you think about artisticRage's skill?" You're also known for complaining about shit that you do. Why even try to fight it? lol. Just take it like a scrub mang. Just look at the negative rep you have from players? (Expects you to say you don't care ___________here.) Of course you care.. or you wouldn't reply. I'm done with you already. Like I usually say, see you in third Strike.

This entire topic is ridiculous, people can bitch and moan about Akuma "lag tactics" but I've yet to hear any specifics and until I do it's just an excuse as to why people lose.
The original poster has clarified several times that he is merely frustrated with the standard of Akuma play. Like me, I'm sure he'd like to face more Akuma players who pose a challenge - and who would still pose a challenge offline.
Dealing with tedious crutch tactics that depend the connection being too latent to contend with is dull. When this does work against me it's very frustrating because the same approach in a good connection would be much easier to put a stop to.
Free dive kicks in a shitty connection? Offline you practically need to get them into block stun first or you'll eat anti-air. Constant hurricanes going unpunished? Offline you're facing block and throw, maybe even short, short, super. Don't even get me started with the run away air fireballs to bait them to jump, then trying to catch them with an air hurricane. Drivel. Offline people will parry those fireballs all day without needing to jump.
Not to mention Akuma is way, WAY below the list on characters with balance issues, small stun bar combined with no EX moves and taking more damage than anyone else in the game is a pretty big handicap.
People say that Ryu is the most balanced character in 3S. On some tier lists, Akuma is right beside him. The fact that Akuma has very low stamina and a short stun bar is most likely a balancing measure in the first place. Even with zero meter Akuma can still land formidable damage. He's comparable in this respect to Ryu and Alex. The majority of the cast need some meter to be hitting over 50 points of damage. Other characters need a full stock to match him. Akuma can do this sort of damage in regular punishment scenarios.
...as an Akuma player I have to punish about 6-8 mistakes in order to finish someone off.
Try the other buttons :confused:

All the Akuma players I have faced on this page are not even half decent. Anyone who whiffs ONE light hurricane in a match is crap. Anyone who whiffs more is just plain rubbish. Which I have seen a lot of from the players I'm thinking of (who have also posted in this thread).
Stop trying to big up your ego and learn to play.
There's a reason I could play against any of the players I mentioned, and win by doing NOTHING except sitting back and waiting for you to spam your shit (which you do) then just punish. If a player devises a strategy THAT basic to defeat you, then it really is time for you to up your game.
Only other Akuma player who played safe and clever enough to be labelled as a decent Akuma on XBL is ASTENNU in my opinion. Against him I always have to think of how to get in and break his defence. With everyone else, like I said, I just sit back or do a little dance to bait their button mashing/hurricane spamming/etc. Sometimes the lag prevents me from even blocking something I see ten miles away and then the other person thinks that they can rush down with Akuma. Get the fuck outta here. Playing with Akuma on XBL is NOT about who can get in first and mash more buttons. No, seriously - I mean it.
Here's my reason for putting all of you down:
1) XBL used to teach me shit back in the days
2) Hardly any of the players these days do anything original or smart. Its just using lag to practice their impractical combos which they wouldnt get a chance to land offline. For example - double karakusa and shit like that.
3) One matchup which I hardly get to play or practice is Akuma mirror matches.
4) I want to come on XBL and play a few good Akumas.
5) I dont want to go to Japan and be totally clueless against Akuma players.

Well...being clueless about Akuma players...I mean you're already an Akuma player so you have a headstart. The fact that you're even qualified for SBO is technically a head start. You've been through enough matches and learned enough to be in a position to represent your country in 3S. Mirror matches are one of those things that you just have to get a feel for.
Like I've played Ibuki mirror matches against quite a few of the few US Ibuki players that are out there. Genearlly...the fact that you already play that character should give you an idea of what to do. Sometimes you'll run into sitautions where you'll both hit each other with the same attack or just fall into patterns because you both are looking to do similar things. Against other Ibuki players I usually purposely lose the first round just so I can understand their attack pattern. Then from there I already have an idea what they are going to do and then it's open season on them.
I haven't really fought another Ibuki player in the US so far who's actually better than me. Problem is that Ibuki is a momentum oriented character and it takes a second to figure out how to defend against the specific way someone will play her. It's kinda risky to go all out from round 1 just because the way they are going to play is probably different and if you're not looking out for their tricks you'll start taking hits unnecessarily and then put yourself in trouble later on.
Problem is you're going to be facing against other Akuma players that have like 3 times the experience you have and definitely much more experience in the mirror match than yourself. You're just not going to get that kinda practice beforehand so the idea would be to try and gain as much knowledge out of the opponent in the first round as you can and then apply that to the second and hopefully 3rd rounds.
You only get one match to show what you got so if you end up against another Akuma player apply what you already know and take your time in the first round. The chances of you winning if you just try and bum rush them as soon as the announcer says go are slim. You need to have some kind of knowledge base of their attacking pattern before being able to take initiative. Especially at something like SBO.

Harmonaz, after this sunday, Akuma is back for one last stand.
Although, I am reluctant to pick up stick to play with him. Reason being for mastery of instant kara. That's the only trick I can't seem to master on pad. So I will have to shun that aside which really hurts but, oh well. I'm going to study all of my videos and try and pick him up again.
I noticed something about Akuma. Once you have your opponent in the corner the match is yours, as long as you can predict what your opponents reactions will be to your moves. I'm going to focus on trying to get my opponent into the corner even if I have to take risks. I won't take too much risks though considering Akuma has little to no health. One thing I noticed is that Akuma's backwards throw can be kara'd! I'm going to try and master this although I have no clue how to do it. I have done it a couple times before out of sheer mistake though.
Plus, I haven't seen one person manage to jump out of my hk kara demons. :lovin:
In the Akuma mirror. Save up two meters. Then poke the shit out of the other Akuma. :) Make him go into the air and eat him up with Air-tatsus.

One thing I couldnt agree with more though as far as Akuma and Ibuki mirrors go - LOSE the first round if you have to just to see how they use YOUR character.
ASTENNU - HK kara? Sorry I've stolen that one and it is known as the DemoNaz or Raging Shanghai :arazz: I'd give you credit for it but I 'true' kara it.

Harmonaz has every right to blast people really. There's a lot of TERRIBLE Akuma players on Live. Granted 90 percent of them are scrub Akuma players that dont post here but there's maybe like 1 or 2 other decent Akuma players on Live aside from Harmonaz himself. He's clearly the best Akuma player on Xbox Live and even could go as far to say that he's best Akuma player in Europe. It's really tough to find a decent Akuma player to play against and most Akuma players on Live dont even use a lot of his basic strategies/footwork.
A lot of them are dry dive kick/air fireball/hurricane spam Akumas with no realy poking game, throw game or even a real game to begin with. When all else fails...jump in the air and throw out SA1. That startegy works on like literally less than half the cast. Any character who is half decent in the game you have to put some real knowledge into to win at higher levels.

There's a reason I could play against any of the players I mentioned, and win by doing NOTHING except sitting back and waiting for you to spam your shit (which you do) then just punish. If a player devises a strategy THAT basic to defeat you, then it really is time for you to up your game.
Only other Akuma player who played safe and clever enough to be labelled as a decent Akuma on XBL is ASTENNU in my opinion. Against him I always have to think of how to get in and break his defence. With everyone else, like I said, I just sit back or do a little dance to bait their button mashing/hurricane spamming/etc. Sometimes the lag prevents me from even blocking something I see ten miles away and then the other person thinks that they can rush down with Akuma. Get the fuck outta here. Playing with Akuma on XBL is NOT about who can get in first and mash more buttons. No, seriously - I mean it.
Here's my reason for putting all of you down:
1) XBL used to teach me shit back in the days
2) Hardly any of the players these days do anything original or smart. Its just using lag to practice their impractical combos which they wouldnt get a chance to land offline. For example - double karakusa and shit like that.
3) One matchup which I hardly get to play or practice is Akuma mirror matches.
4) I want to come on XBL and play a few good Akumas.
5) I dont want to go to Japan and be totally clueless against Akuma players.
I Agree Naz but, Don't let your ego get to you as well (no pun intended bro) seems like your being an akuma hater rather for some reason and don't get me wrong, some of the players I've played online (when) were cheap shots, not even playing strategically more like air fire ball run away spam again then hurricane kick etc. Nowadays since I haven't been playing online against others, I primarily have somewhat of a competition when I play. I wouldn't mind playing against you sometime soon however, doubt it would happen as I don't play 3S on my old xbox and sure as hell not playing it on my 360. wouldn't mind th ggpo server deal but as it is, I'm usually fed up with setting computer settings by the end of the day when I get home from work dealing with computers all day. My advice, teach the rookies whom want to learn more, that's what I would do when I played online.

Chozen - teaching the guys who wanna learn is something I've been doing from Day 1 anyway. Problem is - only one of them is an Akuma player.

I hear what Naz is saying, but in my mind i couldn't say it is a ego trip 100%. Might just be mad frustration behind it, being an akuma pro.
I'll admit, I'm not just an "Akuma" player, but i am generally a "Shoto" player. I like all 4 of em, and try to improve mainly with only 3. (all but sean). Even offline, the comp I face, i only face em while i am shit faced, being drunk. lol, and i still either give em a hell of a fight, or i just win still. I never mean to toot my horn, or ever say, "My akuma/Ryu is the hot shit", but i just love giving people the challenge with em, if i win or lose. I at least want heads to be like, "Damn this Alacard dude is tough", specially since i Had a rough start when i first joined the forums, i felt I have to prove something to u cats, or just leave an impression like, "This dude don't play".
I still would rather be told, Directly, if one of my shoto characters suck, specially if I was played against Recently. I like proving peeps differently :) Now I at that point would have an ego trip! lol.
