    I've taunted people by accident during games lol, not once have I wanted to but I must be touching the wrong very sensitive sanwa buttons during fights. It's embarrasing actually

      After playing my NTSC-UK tourny matches today, I got into a G2 championship and first round played a Ken with almost 15,000GP. HE WAS ****!!! How on earth he has managed to get that many GP I will never know. I'll admit I'm only half decent but I utterly destroyed in both rounds. I actually managed to go on and win that tourny somehow too (if you want to see tiger spam at its finest, then watch my replay, it's Sagat on Sagat action )...

        Taunting's one of my regular accidental moves. When it happens I'll just quickly jump or move out of it and then hold my hands to stop it happening again but a little while later they'll just return to their position and it happens again

          How are you accidentally taunting? Never done it, personally. You using a stick? Mashing? :P

            I fought lots of Seths last night - was interesting because I haven't really come across many before; some were good, some were bad, but one was absolutely mint; easily wrecked my goodies.

              I played against my first online Seth the other day. He was pretty easy to beat.

              I have had some cracking games in champ mode over the last couple of days. Some decent Kens and a lot of pretty poor Ryus. The only thing is when I play as Vega I hate the Zangiefs and Sagats, as I seem to have to work three times as hard to inflict the same damage that they seem to effortlessly dish out. I am improving all the time though and when I beat them it's all the more satisfying.

                One of the people I regularly play against uses Vega, and I've not really worked out how to deal with him when I play Zangief. He's just all over the place, and I really struggle to get close enough to do much damage. Plus I keep trying to use Lariat to counter his air attack thing (the one where he comes down vertically and slashes at you), despite the fact I know it doesn't work.

                  I used to find Zangief easy with Vega, but this last couple of weeks it's been an uphill struggle. It's just if he does get a couple of a hits and a grab in, then Vega's energy takes a raping.

                    Try using headbutts (jump up+MP/HP) to counter air attacks. Once you get a knock down try for a crossup splash/knees, if he back flips then dash forward into SPD.

                      Ta. I always forget about the headbutt. I've not played around with it enough to really know when to use it, so I just tend not to touch it at all.

                      Finally did Zangief's last trial yesterday, so I've got his icon set now. Completely fluked it, though. I'll never to that combo again.

                            Can any Blanka players help me recognise when an EX up-ball is going to hit me in the back of the head or the front? It always gets me as a cross-up. I really can't tell where it's going, or is that the whole idea?

                              do you mean the EX jungle roll - ie the one where he starts with a backflip?

                              It crosses up just inside full screen. If you're at full distance you're safe. If you're well inside then it'll take spot on timing for him to cross up. If you're just inside you're probably getting crossed up.
                              It's got manual control though, so in theory can cross-up from anywhere inside full screen.

                                That's the one, I forgot he had the vertical ball too. Cheers for the tips, might need to have some games against your Blanka for practice
