Did they change the command for gekiro to reverse DP, or is that a typo?

I know thats what it shows on the scanned in images, but even the game guide books can be wrong.

I just don't see why they would change this command.

Can someone confirm?

Posted by asiantom on January 20, 2009 at 8:16 a.m. #2

@SecretCharacter
Hey, that is a typo and a miss print I'd say.

I don't see why they would change the command either, but I took a screen shot of the in-game command list and we should be happy to know that it looks like it's still the same.

Confirmation:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v495/DeathWatch/genwaterfallkick.jpg?t=1232468089

Sorry for the poor resolution, it was a screen capture! But you can tell that the DP is the 'right' direction that we want.

Posted by SecretCharacter on January 20, 2009 at 1:59 p.m. #3

Sweet! I didn't think they had any reason to change it but, they did go back to the old Cammy and Fei commands.

Thanks for the heads up.

hey.. can i ask wat is meant by armour breaking?

Posted by SecretCharacter on January 21, 2009 at 6:18 a.m. #6

Holding Strong and Forward (Med punch and kick) is your Focas Attack. The FA can absorb one hit and retaliate. Sort of like and alpha counter. An armour breaking move will knock out a focas attack.

Posted by asiantom on January 21, 2009 at 7:54 a.m. #7

@BIG_NOOB
To changes stances is to hit all three punches or all three kicks.
3x Punch(Sou-ryuu/Mantis Stance)
3x Kick (Ki-ryuu/Crane Stance)

Posted by anonymous noob on January 31, 2009 at 10:20 a.m. #8

Rapid Slap (Hyakurenko) - The punch button pressed determines the speed and power of this move, and the number of hits. Light is the slowest and does the least damage, while Hard does the most damage and is faster.

Ummm... in what situations (if any) would using Light or Medium Hyakurenko punch attacks be preferable to the Hard punch variety? Are there startup/recovery time differences or something?

Posted by ED on February 3, 2009 at 7:48 a.m. #9

Why the hell did they changed the Gekiro comand?

Posted by asiantom on February 4, 2009 at 8:32 a.m. #10

@anonymous noob
You'd probably want to do HP Hyakurenko, but you'll find it's just plain easier to do the medium/light versions. the HP version requires a lot of taps. This is based off of my experience in Alpha 3.

@ED
If you read just a couple comments up, you'll see I posted the correct Gekiro command. Eventhubs hasn't changed it to it's correct command.

The guy who taught Gouken and Gouki was Goutetsu, I think Goutetsu was killed bu Gouki though. However when Goutetsu died he was proud that Gouki had harnessed the Saitsu no Hadou. The beads that Gouki wears originally belonged to Goutetsu.

Can't remember what parts are canon or were from comics/animations though. I think its mostly canon.

@Jon
What Zenosbleed said. ha! Check out x-ism Gen from A3 to see how horrible he is when they try to mix his two stances.

@kEn's bRo
You realize you're in the Gen guide?
Charging can be simple. Like the game suggests, hold back for two seconds we'll say, then push forward. At the same instance your stick or finger reaches 'forward' press a punch or kick. I'm sure you're having your issues with timing the punch/kick properly. Try quickly double tapping the punch/kick to help insure the input was registered.

good luck.

Posted by asiantom on February 20, 2009 at 6:27 a.m. #30

@Tyler
To complete the kick you just need to tap the kick button (which ever one you started with) until he completes the move with a downward kick throwing the opponent to the ground.

To do this you need to tap slowly at first and gradually tap faster. This takes time and practice, good luck.

Posted by xerzec on February 21, 2009 at 4:41 p.m. #33

For people having trouble with the Gekiro, I've found the most success in letting the person's body fall parallel to Gen before I start the first kick, and then do the aforementioned gradual increase in tapping speed. I went from 2-3 kicks avg to 5+ kicks avg with a finisher every 3 tries or so. Its definitely a tricky move.

Posted by xGOLDx on February 22, 2009 at 2:17 a.m. #34

What I found helpful with the Gekiro is watch when your opponent (Dan), is falling out (I have bad rhythm and am more visual). Just kick when your other kick lands and it will complete after the seventh time

After extensive testing I have concluded that, unfortunately, Gen is pretty bad. Which sucks, because he's really cool and extremely fun to play, but his only effective strategy is to turtle and poke, because he has such horrible priority.

How do you do the Gekiro completed?

Posted by mofomikes on February 24, 2009 at 10:52 a.m. #42

@Anoited24
Gekiro completed is achieved by landing gekiro and pressing K for additional attacks until the maximum of allowable hits is reached.

@genkid
HK > HK is achieved by jumping in with a HK and landing another HK before landing. Your first HK must land shallow to allow enough time to land the second before reaching the ground.

Posted by ojisan on March 5, 2009 at 7:09 a.m. #48

Goldenkillah

If you're talking about jumping double kick, after you jump hold diagonal back+down, do the two kicks then land and do the LP and immediately go forward into the Jyasen.

Gen is the man. Not as easy to use because of the no projectile, but def fun to play with and very satisfying when you win.

Are you guys going to make a trial walkthrough like the rest of the characters?

Posted by PaperStSoapC on March 8, 2009 at 10:14 p.m. #50

for the combo in trial 4, the lp that comes after the double kick is delayed. so do the double kicks, no problem, then find the timing where you can delay it as long as possible but where you can but still perform it. this will give you enough time to charge

Posted by Kartman on March 10, 2009 at 4:16 p.m. #51

@F3LON

I don't believe you can do the combo you described. Well what I mean is, EX Jyasen into c.MP into another EX Jyasen is not possible. After the final hit of the Jyasen, the opponent has the ability to block the c.MP.

Let me know if my timing was off or something. A video would also be helpful.

The combo works against the CPU (doing the roll, crouching MP repeatedly was the only way I could beat Abel on Hardest), but doesn't work well against most online opponents. A simple crouching LK or LP can stop this "combo"

Posted by Egodeus on March 20, 2009 at 6:46 p.m. #66

Is the Japanese version slower than the EU version, or is the framerate in YouTube worse than the PS3's? Watching the video seemed like watching a slowmo of the game. Nice to see those trials are indeed possible, but doing some of them myself is dumbblistering (near)impossible. Spent 2 hours alone on completing Ex Gekiro. (Normally I do Ex moves using the 3xP or 3xK buttons, that does not seem to work for Gen though)...

Posted by asiantom on March 23, 2009 at 12:04 p.m. #68

@TKKT
See, I don't think the 'combo' works at all because it's not a combo. After doing the EX-roll you're at a frame advantage of +1, the start up of c.MP is 5. So the opponent has 4 frames to block or counter. So it won't work as an actual 'combo' but could work as just the Gen player throwing out constant Jyasens. And when I test things against a CPU it's in training mode while I have AUTO-block.

Frame data info taken from: http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthrea... Might not be accurate but it's the only thing we've got!

Posted by Redwolfx PSN: Redwolfx on March 24, 2009 at 3:40 p.m. #69

I mastered Fei long, and working on Gen now almost mastered him too, Gen is Easily one of the best new comers(return character) with his Switch Style double ultra and super, you can Super to ultra(any of the two), and Do many combinations with him, his jumping can switch between battle makes it harder to read. Best combination catching people off gaurd is Oga, Low kick (Switch Style) > Super > Ultra(Either), Catch them in the air is all timing.

You can Krane Style Jump over them MK to Low Kick > Mantis Style> Super > Ultra to finish the game anytime.

You can also Oga > LK > Mantis style > Gekiro (ex or regular )

So many thigns u can do

Posted by F3LON on March 24, 2009 at 7:11 p.m. #70

Posted by asiantom on March 25, 2009 at 1:20 p.m. #72

F3LON, what I'm trying to tell you is that it's not a combo :P

You're not going to end up with a 10 hit combo. It's essentially spamming the roll. I use the world spam lightly btw. I just want it to be clear it's not a combo and we shouldn't think it's a combo. It's like saying Ryu throwing two fireballs one after another is a combo.

The series of Jyasen's will work as somewhat of a mix up I'm sure against PLAYERS who're trying to guess you're next move, but whatever a computer does is irrelevant to player vs player.

Posted by TKKT on March 26, 2009 at 8:43 a.m. #73

@asiantom,

if you read my post, i put combo in quotations because, as you say, it isn't a combo. it does however work at least 70% of the time against the CPU (even at hardest). it's total spamming of a move, and a half-competent player can break the chain easily.

Gen is definitely the funnest to play for me, but I still find he lacks a couple of tools. When knocked down, he doesn't seem to have much defense/reversaks against cross ups on wake up. His anti-air attacks (D+HK & DP+K) seem to have low priority. It's also a lot harder to catch jumping opponents with a jumping attack, his jumping attacks have weird angles.

Any help would be appreciated!

Posted by asiantom on March 26, 2009 at 8:56 a.m. #74

@TKKT,
Okay! We're on the same page then haha.

About the cross ups on wake up, Gen's dash is really quick and if you see the cross up coming his dash will get you out of that cross up situation. I usually use Gekiro against people that jump in. I do see a lot of people saying it trades a lot, but I rarely see that. It might be because I try to execute it early?

Posted by DR Jam on March 27, 2009 at 5:31 p.m. #75

I've loved Gen, well, especially since SF@3 (that's my fondest memory of him).

At first, it took me a while to get used to him in SF4, because Capcom decided to strip him naked of his target combos. If my memory serves me correctly, back then he had a few linkable normal attacks that required only the right sequence of input, and not some tricky link bar telling you when to hit.

Anyway, I'm getting better and better with. I love using him, because he's not cliche, he's hard to master, and can easily be underestimated since he's not popular since he's not really accessible.

Four o of his moves that I love to use, and work like a charm are:

1) Jump attack (Hp or Hk) + Hp + Gekiro (I always get at least 6 hits, often 8, it's not that hard--just hold the key for a second during the first hit, then hit it a second time, and then tap it as the hits connect, at a slightly increasing rate)

2) To go through projectiles} Oga (try to connect the best way you see fits) + d.Hk or EX Jyasen

3) Oga (after connecting) + Jyakoha (Super) or Rykoha (Ultra)

4) [if you cannot find an opening use the tricky c.Lk Crane sweep, then] • Zan'ei (Super) + Zetsuei (Ultra) (you have to do the follow up Ultra, and the opponent's body is in the air at about your neck's hight)

OBS: I don't see the point of using his other EX attacks (apart from the EX Rapid Slap which deals more damage)--His EX Gekiro is almost useless since it deals the same amount of damage. Does anybody disagree? I could learn something...

I consider myself above average, so, these moves are not really for novice players, the combos that require canceling in super/ultra, don't require a very sensitive timing, compared to other characters (e.g., Guile--my fav), but they do require quick and precise inputs, unlike a few characters (e.g., Sakura).

Posted by DR Jam on March 27, 2009 at 5:33 p.m. #76

forgot to add another basic one:

5) Jump Mk (also works as cross up), + Hp or Mp + Rapid Slap, this is the most basic. I think.

Posted by Panda on March 27, 2009 at 9:45 p.m. #77

Erm..not to call you wrong Dr Jam, but...

EX hands is borderline useless. It does less than 20 more damage than HP hands. Only possible use is that it can be linked to standing MK, which may create combo extending possibilities (EX hands -> mk -> gekiro maybe?)

EX Oga's the best EX move. Invunerable until get hits the wall, good for quick escapes. EX roll is an honorable mention to attack through fireballs.

After landing Oga without meter, you should go for Gekiro. it does solid damage, and nets you a good chunk of super meter. If you HAVE meter, you can land either super (Mantis OR crane), or ultra (again, mantis OR crane), or super into ultra (mantis super, into EITHER mantis or crane).

Biggest Damaging combo without meter: Crane Target combo, Crouching MP, HP Jyasen. Hard to land, because the opponent must be standing for the target combo to connect. Still wrthy of note, just for the damage and stun.

A more solid combo in crane is: Jump MK (crossup optional), crouching LK, Mantis crouching HK. Knocks down and does OK damage. If you have super, you can replace the mantis crouching HK with the mantis super.

Mantis super can be followed up with any ultra, or gekiro if you don't have ultra.

Posted by Peri on March 31, 2009 at 9:58 a.m. #78

Dr Jam Stated that you can Land a super after Oga (wall kick version )

However, if the conditions are right, you can Oga, jump into two HKs, then into Super or ultra. Lots of fun to do : )

Posted by Panda on March 31, 2009 at 10:14 a.m. #79

You should always, ALWAYS go for Zan-ei instead of Jyakoha, simply for the extra gekiro juggle (a fully landed HK gekiro fills about 1 full EX bar!)

Posted by Shadekill on April 3, 2009 at 9:17 a.m. #81

Tip for Trial Hard 5:
To cancel into zanei, you MUST do half motion of Zanei once you MP. Immediately EX Rapid Slap (very short time frame, like 0.2 sec) while completeing Zanei motion. EX Rapid Slap should only hit once then it'll cancel into Zanei. Even if you press all 3P it'll still cancel into Zanei. After that you should be fine connecting Gekiro. One of the hardest trial IMO. Took me a while to complete it.

Another variation:
Once you master this, and I think no one will ever in a real fight, you can Ryokoha instead of Gekiro. Of course you've already thought about that. Cheers!

Posted by Shadekill on April 3, 2009 at 9:30 a.m. #82

@ DR Jam
EX Gekiro has less strict timing to complete or no timing at all. Whenever I EX Gekiro, I press K every about 0.5 secs and it completes all the time. Hope that helps

Posted by Zeekin on April 7, 2009 at 1:21 a.m. #83

For those having trouble consistently completing gekiro:

I think the trick behind Gekiro is partially to with positioning and the other part to do with timing. You'll want to have the guy positioned so that your feet are hitting around the chest area. Also You should time it such that the time in between successive kicks becomes shorter and shorter. So you wait the longest time before your first kick, less time before the 2nd-3rd kick etc until you're pressing the kick button relatively quickly (but never mashing).

Posted by Shadekill on April 7, 2009 at 12:53 p.m. #84

@Zeekin

I completely agree with you. The successive 4th-8th kick must be done much faster than 1st-3rd kicks.

Definitely need some more advanced strategies for Gen. Started championship mode yesterday, got to G2(E) and no problem, but once their Gen's deficiencies are much more obvious. Besides the Gief match up (which is pretty once-sided, even with infinite amount of patience, his cross up is hella hard to escape), Sagat and Ryu are a pain with the fireball trap -> to uppercut XX focus XX ultra. Powerbeard on PSN plays a mean Bison as well. The tier rankings are definitely MUCH more obvious at this higher level of play.

After losing most of my matches in G2 with Gen (who I main), I switched to E.Honda, Blanka and Rufus, and won 1 tourney with each. Balanced?

Gen may be weaker technically, BUT he is 2 characters in 1... which is a strength in the hands of a good player. I main as Gen, and I will say the only character I cannot beat with any frequency is Bison. With all of Gen's capabilities, his real problem is with the exception of his ultra his hits don't do much damage, so the 30 times you hit Sagat and Zangief don't matter because they hit you twice and you have no life left. Here are my suggestions to beat different characters:

- Zangief... use normals and jump away, if he gets in close, all you can do is try to get away, try EX wall jump. If he does the lariat dash once and do HP ultra. very difficult to crossup zangief, but j.medium kick can kick him out of lariat if timed right and hit hits his head. (not his arms)

- Bison... jump straight up and down and use jump punches, keep bison close to you, Bison is tough to beat up close, but nearly impossible to beat when he zones Gen and does distance attacks (head stomp, etc...) If you have other tips on how to beat Bison/Dictator tell me! I get physical anxiety when I play against Bison.

- Blanka... tough match, Blankas attacks seem to deal a lot of damage, and a good blanka player will use electricty effectively, but gen's medium kick can knock him out of it if timed right. use Gen's dragon kick against blanka's jumping attacks. if you have super or ultra meter and he fwd rolls,block and counter with super to ultra... over 50% damage.

- ChunLi... stay away from her, but be patient, cross her up and make her jump, then just dragon kick. you can't beat her in a poke contest, but most chunli players jump alot, so dash back to zone and do dragon kick.

- Ken/Ryu/Sagat/Guile... any fireball thrower, mix up your styles to confuse the distance he can jump. Gen's jumpin ability is strong and you can punish with med.kick to HP mantis or crane HK or link. Sagat is the most difficult because of the high and low fireballs, but they have to throw low fireballs eventually ;D

Gen is a very good character, maybe not top tier but there are so many things to do with him it's fun if anything. I wish they would have kept chain combos from alpha 2&3

After losing most of my matches in G2 with Gen (who I main), I switched to E.Honda, Blanka and Rufus, and won 1 tourney with each. Balanced?

At the moment I m in G1E,
Gen is a difficult character to control he has so many moves but I think the best way is to focus on the dangerous moves when you play with him :
- Gekiro
- Oga after Ultra
- pressing with medium kick
- jump with medium kick in the back of the opponent after crouching light kick then super combo + ultra combo

Good luck :)

Yeah, great fights. I had trouble with your Gen which was I must say pretty wicked. I suppose you were using a fightstick with turbo on? Those chains were close to impossible to pull off. Anyway, GGs again.

I meant that MP > MK > rapid slap > MK > rapid slap or watever that is was awesome. I tried doing that in training and it's pretty darn hard. I guess harder than El Fuerte's infinite loop.

Posted by asiantom on May 26, 2009 at 11:56 a.m. #103

@Shadekill

Turbo! I'm insulted! JK, they weren't turbo though but I do have the TE stick. It took a long time to get down but it's pretty easy to do once you get them.

Check out the SRK forums (http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthrea...)

MK > Hands is an amazing poking tool. What I do is press the following buttons one after another in quick succession, MK, LP, MP, HP, MP, HP. then I repeat that for the second round.

If you're using an xbox pad I feel it'll be very hard to do, but on a stick it a lot more managable.

It took me about a month to get it as solid as I have it now. :]

Posted by Shadekill on May 27, 2009 at 7:04 a.m. #104

@asiantom

Holy crap, I didn't know that MK > handslap is so good that they made a forum for it. Even worse, the way to execute it is insanely hard! I've been playing fighting games since I was a kid and never came across with sometihing like this. But I must say, it was pretty effective though. Surprises the hell outta me when you MK > handslap. I was like, WTF?! how did.... how the... what the... I'm gonna try that in training!! Only dissapointing is that I don't think that piano/slide method is doable in controller.

Ah yes, if you're on a 360/ps3 controller, or a fightpad this is going to be hard :[

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on June 14, 2009 at 1 a.m. #107

@Da Legend

Gen is not weak, he happens to have the single strongest normal in the game(stronger than Zangief's), the highest hitting combos, as well as unparalleled juggle ability.
And btw, it's,"Foolish whelp." Not welt.

And who do YOU use, Ken or Sagat? hahaha

Posted by asiantom on June 15, 2009 at 10:49 a.m. #108

@Oculus-Orbis

I agree, I don't think Gen is weak. I mean, I think he doesn't hit hard and has no health, but he makes up for that with his mix-up.

What strongest normal are you talking about? His [KKK] cr. HP?

Also, do you think Ken is as powerful as Sagat? That is what I gather from you asking if Da Legend uses Ken or Sagat.

Ken is mid-tier at best, he has a Kara-throw and some pretty easy links but it doesn't make him hard to be because he doesn't have that many options. If you're putting Ken up with Sagat than I'm not sure what SFIV you're playing ;]

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on June 18, 2009 at 2:26 a.m. #109

I'm used to using Dhalsim, so the health thing doesn't bother me much(except against Zangief, haha)

And yes, that's the normal I meant.

No, I don't believe Ken is as powerful as Sagat (It was merely a scrub joke at Da Legend's expense).
I agree with you entirely on that matter.

Posted by MetalxHealthX on June 23, 2009 at 2:38 a.m. #110

foolish welt? rofl
Gen is really fun, he may not be as "strong" as the top 4 but hes no joke, hes solid mid tier and i expect him to climb the ladder after about a year.
and dude saying Ken isnt comparible to Sagat i dont completely disagree(though imo Sagat is usally over exaggerated), but try getting hit with his Target Combo -> EX DP that kinda damage is ridiculous. id also place him above mid tier, maybe not top 5 but top/mid-top tier imho.

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on June 23, 2009 at 11:14 p.m. #111

True, but the good thing about SF4, is that it's a bit more balanced than prior fighters. Sure the tier list is a great start, but if you read the data used to compile the list, you'll find it's very close. Only certain bad match-ups will tip the scales. Besides, the game is young, and the tier list is ever changing. Not to say it doesn't mean anything at all, but, it is a hypothetical system which doesn't truly guarantee that much, save for slight favor in certain situations.

So in essence, what I'm saying is that you can become world class with any character(yes, even Dan). You will simply have to try harder, think quicker, and employ greater strategies, with the lower tier characters.

how can i charge any way i cant do any charge i dont know what is the technique plz can any one tell me how

Posted by Headbiter on July 9, 2009 at 9:06 a.m. #113

I have a little issue concerning Gen's 4th trial-challenge, the first move. I get down the heavy kick and medium punch easily, but due to the distance that builds up during the punch the following Gekiro always hits empty air.
First I thought I'm maybe too slow with the keys (yes, playing on PC) but I'm already at the point where sometimes I do the gekiro right after the kick, because I give the "Punch-order" in the little timegap during the kick where it isn'T recognized.
I honestly can't figure out what I'm doin wrong here, so if anyone has a tip, please tell me. By now I already mastered the Oga-Ryukoha-Combo but I don't get past that Kick-Punch-EX Gekiro-Combo. T_T

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on July 11, 2009 at 9:23 p.m. #114

Have you tried integrating the standing MP into the (EX)Gekiro command?
example:
1)Jump-in HK,
2)forward+MP,
down,
down+forward+2xkick.

Posted by Buayadarat on July 12, 2009 at 11:19 p.m. #115

although Gen has low stamina, and deals low damage, but Gen makes up with his insane mix up capability (his Crane and Mantis j.mk), and did anybody realize that Gen has ridiculous invinsible frames when doing a FA, even when chun li have done a back dash after hitting Gen when he is charging, Gen would still hit Chun li, and his hand is not touching her.....crazy

@JustagoodFrenchGenplayer

I'm on PSN...

i will send some of you Gens invites if you're on PSN... I rarely lose gen mirror matches... maybe I haven't found enough good players... i think mk-hands is good but not the be all end all of gen strategy, though it is the best way to punish, though Fierce Hands does a lot of damage in itself, so does the fierce roll if you're already in crane stance.

As I progress though G2, the EX Oga is really key... not only saving me but allowing me to pull out the close ones more often! good stuff. I love head stomping Kens as they wake up! I've seen it beat Ken's ultra if ken's comes out too early.

Posted by Alf Huckett on August 5, 2009 at 5:30 a.m. #117

Guys. Bit of advice. I can do all of Gens moves, including the EX Wall Kick. But can't figure out how I am doing the Ex Wall Kick. The one where he goes off the opposite wall. Can someone please tell me how to do it....

Ta

Posted by SecretCharacter on August 5, 2009 at 2:55 p.m. #118

It's not the EX that goes off the opposite wall. It depends on the direction you are holding when Gen takes off. If you arent holding a direction then Gen will automatically go to the closest wall.

The only thing EX has differently is that he is invincible untill he touches the wall.

and to #115. You should never use EX Gekiro. It doesn't do anything better than the HK Gekiro ecxept make it easier to input the commands.

Just practice this timing:

HK.1.2.HK.HK.1.2.HK.HK.HK.HK

@ SecretCharacter #119,
I was answering a question about a trial-challenge, not in any way, suggesting the use of the EX gekiro. I personally, only use standard Gekiro, and consistently complete it when I do.

@Alf Huckett #120,

You must charge downward, then press UP-FORWARD + K
to go the far wall.

Posted by Headbiter on August 10, 2009 at 5:55 a.m. #122

So, next question from me. ^^

After I played quite some matches (even encountered a Seth and two Roses between probably 400 Kens, Ryus and Akumas)I got quite the hang of playing Gen in the looower tiers.
But two characters really get me and I never ever won even one match against them.

The first one is Sagat. I can't get near that beast. Okay, I get near him and I can hit him quite some times, but even when I'm really lucky I beat them down to only 50% at best. Usually they get me on distance with this crouching jump (which appearantly makes the whole character one frigging attack-zone) and then spam the fire...thing. And the smart Sagat players also completely block out my Oga (all varieties of them) by jump-kicking...whic also makes the guy seemingly invulnerable.

And the second one is Blanka. God help me, I can't figure that guy out. His cannonball-attacks I can only block and then he practically bounces back at a healthy distance again. And should I ever manage to put him even in the slightest defense, he goes electric and the only way to break that is the falling kick, which also causes damage to me.

I'd be thankful for any advises concerning those characters.

Posted by SecretCharacter on August 10, 2009 at 7:35 p.m. #123

Ok Headbiter. Ill start with tis first. Go to the SRK forums for more info.

Starting with Sagat. Sagat isn't very mobile and Gen is. Pretty much the only way Sagat can move quickly is by his tiger knees. What you ned to do is close the gap and pressure him into a corner. Sagat is probably playing defensivly since that is where he is best. Get in poke range and start nailing him with mantis mk-hands, and crouching fp. I can keep going but you'd be better off going to th Gen tread on SRK. Just keep pressuring Sagat and zoning him. Oh and dont make 1 mistake.

Blanka is trickier. Because everything Blanka has beats anything Gen has. Here is the Golden answer that will help you entirely tho. Blocked blanka ball = ultra, and Here's the platinum answer. Blanka ball on hit = super. thats right. if you have meter and he hits you with a ball you can punish him with super/ultra for HUGE damage. Infact, once you have super, start baiting in the ball by doing empty FADC (backdash) untill he hits you.

Again i could keep going, but you'd be better off going to SRK. See you there!

Posted by seanomega on August 11, 2009 at 12:28 p.m. #124

is it more powerful to do the punch super into punch ultra or kick ultra?

Posted by Headbiter on August 11, 2009 at 1:40 p.m. #125

First if all, thanks for the tips, SecretCharacter
But unfortunately after several more frustrating matches I've decided to give up on Gen. Maybe I don't bring enough frutration-resistance or I lack the reflexes of a coffein-driven rabbit but I'm fed up with Gen.
After weeks of low defense, ridiculous damage, dodgy collision-detection and a character with such an incredibly low mistake-tolerance that even dropping your guard for a quarter second can cost you an almost certain vicotry against even the most unskilled shoto-players I'm sick of it. Pure frustration is not what I'm looking forward to when playing a game. And I'm in the lower tier regions, don't even want to imagine the adrenaline-amount you flush through your body when succesfully playing Gen in the upper tiers.
I really like Gen as a character and I damn sure tried to like playing him, but until Capcom gives him at least a better defense I'm done with that character. Really a shame in my eyes because I loved playing around with his stances and mixups but in my eyes that's not worth sacrificing the fun in a game.
Thanks again for the quick answers to my questions and have fun with the old man.

Posted by Tiny Old Man on August 18, 2009 at 5:37 a.m. #126

@#126

Don't give up on Gen "Headbiter" - persevere with him. I know the frustration that you're feeling as I go through it too.

Gen has an EXCELLENT cross up (XUP) game. Abuse jumping MK in crane style (jumping over the opponent).

The following combos work wonders for me:

1. (Crane) XUp MK -> Crouching LK -> Crouching MP -> Oga -> (Mantis) -> Gekiro (Crane whilst Gekiro'ing) -> Oga -> Gekiro

2. (Crane) XUp MK -> Crouching LK -> (Mantis) -> Crouching HK Sweep

3. (Crane) XUp MK -> Jump straight up MK -> Xup MK Again -> into Combo #1 above

4. Oga -> Super (Crane)

5. Oga -> Ultra (Crane)

6. And the grand daddy of all combos:

(Crane) XUp MK -> Crouching LK -> Super -> Ultra

Stick with Gen. He can be hard work to play with, but its a great feeling when you win (or lose) and receive an email shortly afterwards from your opponent with his compliments for using Gen. He is a rare character, but is deadly in the right hands !

Another Training Tip:

Switch to the Training mode and put the Super and Ultra meter settings on to "Permantently" filled. Then practise the Mantis super constantly from side to side. This will help your timing when trying to pull off the super->ultra combo. Set yourself a goal (e.g. 10 supers back to back) and try beat your high score. Practise doing Gekiros after the super too, as well as the Crane Ultra.

Posted by asiantom on August 19, 2009 at 6:34 a.m. #127

Gen is a very good character. He's very hard to play with that much is true, but he still has the tools to win.

My main question to you Headbiter is "Can you do MKxxHands?". If you can, that's great. If you can't, you should learn. MKxxHands makes Gen a huge threat and extremely fun.

But it's a game, play who you'll have fun with.

Posted by yes4me on September 5, 2009 at 12:56 a.m. #129

Done playing with Gen. Unlike other character, I didn't spent too much time learning him since he was my main in SFA3. In my personal experience, he is not as good as SFA3, but he is mid tier. His crane is much better than his mantis unlike in SFA3... imo he reminds me Gouken and Honda for pokes, Abel for the jumping part, Rose for the movement and low damage.

For anyone is trying to follow my progression:
Gen is the 14th character I learned. It took 217 times in G2 to get 1000cp

Posted by jm21 on September 9, 2009 at 2:26 a.m. #130

dude i understand your pain characters like gen are not as good as their a3 counterparts tried him online and he's only good in g3 once you hit g2 it's over.always get zoned and srk'd to death.

Posted by asiantom on September 9, 2009 at 12:20 p.m. #131

@yes4me and jm21

You guys are doing it wrong. First of all, g3, g2, g1 whatever. Online doesn't mean anything. The only thing "grades" show you is how much time that particular person spends playing online. I've fought too many scrubs that have a gross amounts of GP - but they're just complete trash.

Second of all, I want to know if you guys are blaming Gen for your shortcomings or are you guys just looking for a character who requires less work and has better tools to make things easier.

This post came off aggressive, but I don't mean to be.

Posted by yes4me on September 11, 2009 at 10:08 p.m. #132

While online gameplay may mean nothing to you (asiantom), it is the only way I play and meet other people. I have never join a tournament (including EVO) and don't intend to. And when I play online, I use it as a tool to find out how great is a character and his weakness. You may not know but on PC, there is no life at G1. I made a new account just to play again G3&G2! My only fun consists in not getting owned 2 perfects in every games I play.

My other personal goal is to come up with my own tier list based on my online style... and I 100% agree it is not correct (since Rufus is a low tier in my hand), I still find Gen a mid tier character. If JiBbo was playing Gen, obviously I will get owned: He is a pro, and his Gen is top tier. I am not JiBbo. My Gen in SF4 is mid tier.

Regarding SFA3 and SF4, I personally feel Gen in SFA3 was like a fun combo God. In the corner, he could jump HK*2, jump HK*2, into super grab... or that super with a timer... but he can't in SF4. His pokes come out slower; his combo are harder to pull due to lag; his dive kick is slow too. I am feeling I have too much work to pull any victory. In short, SF4 Gen is not as fun as SFA3 Gen.

That been said, you are all free to play Gen. imo, he is not bad, but he is not great either. Please don't get me wrong. I personally love the fact that Gen has 2 stances. It gives Gen more options - my 2 cents

Posted by Gen Aficionado on September 14, 2009 at 4:39 a.m. #133

YES4ME, thank you for reminding me that great super with a timer Gen had. It was loads of fun doing that Super and watching your opponent slowly lose his health while he goes into a frenzy of desperate moves to hit you in an attempt to stop the timer. lol. Capcom, what have you done?!

theres nothing better that kicking there haduken ass with some well timed punchers a wall kick then a ultra from no where. try it, its so satisfying.

Posted by cowboy_soultaker on October 3, 2009 at 11:25 p.m. #138

@tiny old man
Man, I don't know if you still check the board here but is that first combo you list real? oga to gekkiro to oga to yet another gekkiro? I will try to do it on my own but is there a trick to that?

BTW whats it take to get Tiny old man's combos into Gen's article? seems like it'd be beneficial.

I'm learning stick AND trying to nail gen down. but I am used to disappointment as my current main is vega >.>

Posted by cowboy_soultaker on October 3, 2009 at 11:40 p.m. #139

btw...if you're going for oga, and it hits, the lag lets you get hit conformation for mantis sp to mantis ultra.

so you have (crane) oga => (mantis) special => (mantis) Ultra. This has attack data of 670 dmg and vs. balrog that takes him from gold to below half health. while the crane specials are flashy (i am partial to (mantis) special into (crane) ultra) it just cannot compare to the back to back mantis sp ultra

Well okay, I compared the attack data.

oga => super (mantis) => Crane Ultra nets 659 attack data

oga => super (mantis) => mantis ultra nets 670 attack data.

back to back, just super and ultra, they are off by points, but i think the damage scaling is what gimps the crane ultra. The difference is arguably negligible, however the 11 points of damage could be the difference between winning and losing. also arguably, getting a random oga off at higher levels is risky.

Posted by cowboy_soultaker on October 4, 2009 at 12:55 a.m. #140

sorry, me again. I am comparing attack data again. Please don't hate me for breaking down your combos, I am really taking a new interest in gen thanks to them.

attack data for xup mk => lk => (mantis) sweep nets 190 dmg
If you switch that mantis chang-up to crane sweep it gets you 16 more damage at 206.

I am understanding where you are coming from on some of those combos. xup mk to straight jump mk isn't necessarily a link (at least I can't link it) but that aside it's a great idea for a mix-up game.

DR. Jam's xup mk => (mantis) hp (2hit) => rapid hands nets 268 and is a pretty strong cross up combo.

you can also link xup mk => lk => (crane) super for 350 dmg.

thats 100 pts of damage more then what I would consider one of his staples oga => gekkiro. I can't complete heavy so i used ex and that netted the 250 dmg.

crunching numbers with Gen could be valuable in the long run as he doesn't get many chances to mix things up. and chances are you will have 1 ultra per match, with high probability of having both.

also, in theory, doing setups into the roll, like (crane) cr. lp to hp roll to ex Cancel lv 3 could prove an invaluable mixup, you could lp Hands into special into ultra. Roll doesn't link via ex cancel into hands that I can tell, at level 1 or dash cancel. Of course i could be just noob and can't pull of that link but going level 3 could catch them by surprise, absorb an attack etc.

One last comparison, the staple I mentioned above, oga to gekkiro...the ex version does 251 i calculated, which I am guessing is a handful of dmg ahead of the standard heavy. You can just do oga into the crane 2 hit jumping heavy kick and get 240 dmg (200 if you miss 1 hit). this is faster, and possibly safer then doing a gekkiro. BTw, you need apx 2 squares of distance to get the second hit.

btw, xup mk (crane) to cr. lk to mantis special to mantis ultra does 577. (crane ultra is 573)

Posted by AMurderOfCrows on October 10, 2009 at 2:09 p.m. #141

A quick note

Standing HP (Mantis) into super (mantis) into ultra (mantis) nets 650. OOG tends to get punished way too much for me to like using

Posted by cowboy_soultaker on October 10, 2009 at 5:01 p.m. #142

@141
I agree. Thanks for the idea. I see that to do this you have to cancel the first hit. is there a lead in to the hp so that you have a hit confirmation before throwin the special out(sorry I am still learning gen)? I tried xup the crane j.mk. I suppose forward jump hp into hp would work.

Posted by cowboy_soultaker on October 11, 2009 at 4:56 a.m. #143

*cancel after the first hit. sorry if that comment caused any confusion.

I am working on adding a little bit of rushdown to my Gen game. FADC or regular dashes into HP (1 or 2 hits) into rapid hands seems to help put pressure on. Also, I am surprised at how often my jump in HP (mantis), HP (2 hits) rapid hands connects. If you connect with jumping HP, you should be able to get the standing HP and hands out, which will put you at a safe distance. When your opponent has your Oga game read, might not be a nice mix-up.

Are we going to see a Combo list here anytime soon?

it takes someone to compile the combos that are favored, and email them to the webmaster ("contact us"). You could also post it in the forums.

Catalyst (the guy who does all the website stuff) has a lot to do so I don't think he's checking the comment threads for combos and what-not.

O.k. i tried the speed up method for Gekiro but that rarely worked. I tried the balance method that worked more than speeding up, but i can never finish these damn kicks. I know everyone is tired of hearing this crap, but could someone give me a hand on this one.

HK off the wall jump can combo into crane ultra.
Similar to Ryu's jumping MP into ultra, Gen can do a jumping (crane) HK, into crane Ultra. By far, I say that Gen's crane super/ultra are better.
