Kara Shoryuken

[QxN]

Is it worth it to master kara-srk in this game? In 3s it allowed people to get 2 lp.srks off in succession so it was definitely worth it there.

I'm thinking that maybe combos like lp.srk into kara-hp.srk or something might work(without kara it only hits once), but I can't perform kara-srk reliably to test it out myself.

And sorry if this has already been mentioned... I have to wait some 2 million seconds before I can search again -_-.

Can you even *do* a KSRK in SF4?

[QxN]

Ya I pulled it off a couple of times in training mode, enough so that I knew it exists.

[MagnetoManiac]

Nah it shouldn't work.

When I hit with an early MP 1-hit shoryu...usually on their neutral jump or other times...you can do a few things

- Fierce shoryu. Very little damage, but something.

- EX shoryu, worth it if it's about to kill them.

- Ultra, you can get the full one if you counter hit them. If not, the multi-hit one isn't that bad.

edit: No karas needed.

how do you kara a srk?

[QxN]

:r::d::df::r::mk:->punch of you choice. Timing between f.mk and punch is like kara-throwing, 3/60 of a second, and you have to make sure you are pressing forward before f.mk or else you'll do a c.mk.

My assumption is that after third strike Ken they specifically tried to make it so that he could not land two even if you could kara it.

Although I haven't tried it myself, I will tommorow or something.


Kara focus attack and kara hadou are hilarious for fireball trading though

You can already do a 2nd DP as the opponent is falling from sky. A kara is not needed.

You did mention something about k-DP gets you the 'extra hits'?
So are you saying: DP anti-air and then follow up with k-mp.DP (2hits)?
As it stands now - the second DP will only hit once. If kara somehow gets you 2hits... then it would be worth looking into.

But, right now, it is simply costing you a extra 3frames of time to do a second DP

anyone got a vid of it in use?

Yea that's pretty much what I'm asking. I tried doing it myself but my input for kara -srk isn't good enough to get me results, yet. I'll try doing it again today and report back with results.

I don't have a capture card but I'll try to make one using my camera later today.
