Thought I'd like him, but initially I really don't. Normally I'm a zoner (Guile, Glacius, kinda zone with Hakumen too). I don't like fang's buttons. Wouldn't say he's weak though, but it feels to me like he's missing one thing, whatever it is. Right now I'm opting for hit and run style Nash.
im having trouble connecting the first hit of Stand roundhouse in the cc hp-(slide)-hp(v cancel)St HK-cr mp- light lunge combo. any reason that may be?
+Juggernaut2790 Maybe you're walking back too much? You don't need to hold back until you connect the st. HK, and there's no forward walking in the combo. It's just about hitting st. HK soon enough, the combo definitely works and I'd be surprised if it was char specific.
+William Kim I kinda think he might be weak, since most of his attacks (v-skill, poison mine, upshots) have significant startup and he has trouble getting them out under pressure. Additionally his only reversal is extremely passive, he doesn't deal with fireball spam well, he doesn't have good conversions where virtually everyone else does, and to be honest I don't even think he pokes THAT well. But there's a wealth of tech for this char and I don't even know what good play looks like so he might actually be really really good, or at least have matchups where he destroys people. I think he has the hardest time against aggressive rushdown and as such his best strategies are to keep out with cr. MP pokes, watch constantly for anti air, and only use mines or upshots when he can find the time/charge. If the opponent lets you get up skill, mines, or upshots then by all means spam them.
+Bafael cool, I'm glad you think something similar to me. I felt like his pokes were incredibly underwhelming and his weak anti airs and no reversal options left him in an awkward spot Against rushdown no reversals make it hard to escape pressure, against fireball users, there isn't a good way of winning that war. I'm hoping he improves as I think he is really interesting though.
I'm trying 0:55. I can do it now, sort of. I was trying to link as soon as possible rather than holding off assuming faster = better but it was messing it up I think I'm still doing something wrong, sometimes the damage registers as high 261 but then it seems to be 195 and lower.

Amazingly animated character with a really fun style. **Remembers Third Strike**
It's kind hard to follow the combos with just the arrows at the side, but I appreciate the video, it's still useful.

+Bibi Green You already know his mixups?
Man, that thing is scary.
+Hiro Yeah I know I saw Floe's tech. It's just not my style. I prefer relying on solid play than mixups. Nothing wrong with them though.

Nice one baf
@Bafael Where do you think Fang stands right now compared to the rest of the cast, and how do you think his neutral should be played

+Bafael Believe it or not, Floe has done fantastic work in developing FANG tech. check it out sometime.
Can anyone help me with the combo at 2:18
st. LP, st. MK xx MP sotoja? You just have to cancel the first hit of MK, and do it really fast. Charge down back, then b+LP, b+MK then quickly f+MP
Thanks Bafael, just got it then, I think my problem was not cancelling the medium kick quickly enough
Do all these combos still work? It seems I can't do some of them. Maybe I just suck at input?
MrBoBoTom they should all still work. Which ones?

WOH, so does this mean you have completed your Bread and Butter series for SFV for now? I hope you still do other things, like it seems you have.
+olpdragon I've got plenty in the works.
possible to get commands in description?
They're already there.
So I'm just getting into this game and I'm interested in Fang. You guys have any tips and tricks to give me?
Is this still all true after Season 2 changes?
I don't know yet, lol, Everything should still work but I'm not quite sure if everything is still optimal. I think so.
appreciate ittt
