SF4 Omega at a Glance - Balrog / Boxer

All levels of TAP appear to be -2 or so, but EX TAP seems to be somewhere like -10. EX TAP does 280 damage on hit and 70 on block, so it's quite powerful.

I never mentioned in this vid but close st. HP has quite a lot of hitstun so cancelling it to EX overhead is a combo. Also any overhead dash punch xx focus attack crumple is a combo, and that gives you a combo into U2 if you want it.

Wait are we reviving SF4? Sign me up. Dope vid.

[@CNRhKXtreme]

Half the Omega characters are SFV characters anyway.

[@darkjester-sama9502]

Yeah but SF4s engine was better overall than 5s

[@CNRhKXtreme]

@@darkjester-sama9502 Oh I'm agreeing with you, we should just play the SFV-esque characters in IV and have way more fun. :^D

[@blakecollins9494]

Love the Omega vids

[@ctla3043]

Damn, Omega was just a precursor to SFV lol

[@damonte985]

I have to say that this was cool to watch.

[@rahulsagar5269]

Thanks baf

[@graylyhen9490]

Something you can do during the target combo is input a dash punch to build a bit of meter and stay on top of your opponent. You can also go jab forward forward roundhouse to get it out quicker but that scales it a bit and doesn't allow for the aforementioned dash punch I had forgotten that the second hit is plus on block, so forget what I said about the jab

[@mrbaaman]

do we know why they added omega mode? it seems like they wouldnt do it JUST to 'test' sfv ideas

[@DriedPlank]

It was obviously just for fun.

[@syeungmin6204]

It kinda was and they just went a little crazy on a lot of characters lol

[@null-wq5cp]

It was for fun but sfv seems to heavily reference it probably due to the fact the dev teams had a lot of problems developing sfv leading to eventually scrapping an entire build and having the released version practically being a beta. But I do think omega mode was a safe save for any ideas for sfv that weren’t directly connected to the several sfv builds.

Horn breaker became the B3 command grab v trigger 2...

[@JavitsArias]

I think it’s worth noting that his dash is faster

[@Bafael]

Every SF4O character has a faster dash lol

[@l750z_6]

You don’t need to point out his a boxer in the title lol

[@Lolololololololololo123]

Nah he needs to point that out cause in Japan he's called Mike Bison, Vega is called Balrog, and M.Bison is called Vega... So universally we call him boxer.
