Akuma Street Fighter X Tekken Moves, Combos, Strategy Guide

F Yea 1st! on Akuma's Strategy list! the Hype!
Misogi!

Woot. Shoryuken still not on the list? XD

and no shakunetsu red fireball? =/

How is the Zankuu Hadouken not on the list? He was seen doing it in the gameplay trailer?
& Gouki without a Shoryuken? Cmon. Try again. Please..

Damn, you people have no patience.

I wonder what Akuma's charge move is now..

i'm sure misogi is the wrong motion. demon flip is his charge, so misogi is DP+3kicks

SOOOO glad they brought back Misogi such a great move and always a flashy way to end a nice combo

They said they are not finished yet can't you people read. Idiots -__-

Akuma's charge move is his Demon Flip. Hyakkishu

Only If he also had Messatsu Hadoken as another Super. I really wanted to do Father son Hadoken lol. Idk why in SFIV series they nerfed him to a regular char tier and in MVC3 and UMVC3 they didn't give him all his Hypers.

does anyone know if akuma has below average health in sfxt like he did in SFIV or is he like the rest of the cast?

Well you have to wait until someone actually plays as Akuma and notices that two supers and his health is on E. idk why Capcom is Hating on Akuma for

was watching a stream of fuudo and some french players playing the latest build for the game with akuma jin etc. but still no news on the matter

@13

by hating do you mean making his health low? because i can assure you, its not out of hate.

@15
Not just his health. They don't even give him all his moves anymore. His forward medium kick, senpuu kyaku is only in Cross over games now (MVC3) They took off his overhead properties in AE 2012v. when he did the punch follow up of his Hyakki shuu, his demon flip. All games they nerf his health. All of his Messatsu moves are gone from SFIV series. Messatsu Gou Hadou/Gou Shoryuu/Gou Rasen. Ik they don't hate him, they dislike how good he is. Idk why they don't just leave him be. All he does is train anyways why can't he be as good when you play as him.

The return of misogi is a good start, allows his Supers to be unexpected again.

the moment I saw his trailer, my hype for this game re-ignited! just a couple more days you guys till March 6th! XD

Akuma has low health in this game already, i saw like two low damage combos, and he was almost dead. Partner him up with Ryu and you will win every fireball war lol

Moves not in the guide ( 1/3/12 )
Shoryuken
Fire Ball
Over-Head 2 hittin palm

The other three follow-ups on his Demon Flip aren't there, Shakunetsu hadoken isn't there.

i have a question regarding Akuma's Misogi command input..it says to do Down,Down,Down and LK+MK+HK; however the Misogi can be achieved by just inputting Down,Down and LK+MK+HK..so
is the move list wrong in saying that you need to input 3 downs?

Are you serious?? or are you sure you aren't hitting down again while you hit the three kicks. The game itself says three downs too. If thats true, that mean i can do Misogi a split second earlier for that stupid combo that wont land...

Nah, the third down joystick tap is performed at the same time as pressing all three kick buttons; I'm pretty sure.

@#21 check your execution, it's definitely down x3

Does the SSF4 Shortcut still work in this game? (LP -> LP -> Forward LK + HP)

They murdered half of akumas play style.
I mean his mixups are pretty much useless now since every character has a roll to get out of them. Only like 6 characters should have a roll and it should be button input like Abels. The roll also killed Bisons corner pressure. -_-

They Murdered even more than that by not including the moves that he is able to do but they wont allow him to. He has a lot more moves that will allow him to be better at this game without using All his bars to do a simple combo. All his combos from AE are the only ones he can do that use 0-1 bar. If only there was a way for them to update his moves so that he can regain the moves from previous games like CVS2 where he had all his unique moves and Super Arts. Also, am i the only one missing the Super Cancel mechanic?? That was the main reason for double rotation supers.

for someone who is supposed to be God of Fists, they make him so pathetic to play as. sure, the computer Akuma is how Akuma should be but human players get the weakass version. it's funny how I go to arcades and see black guys using Akuma thinking he is black cuz his skin is dark. some islanders of Japan do have dark skin. as for his red hair, remember Ryu had red hair in the first Street Fighter game too! so is Ryu really Akuma's son? it would explain why Ryu is the only other fighter to be able to learn Satsui no Hado. like father like son right? messatsu!

even with the 2013v buff, i still dont feel that akuma can be played with expertise.
