I wish every fighting game guide was like the ones you make, clear and well edited and illustrating everything you describe. not some talking head humming and hawing about layer 1 mechanics for an hour

[@AkiraSatou]

Seconded, Bafael is based as fuck

Some small notes: -Meterless DPs are not throw invincible, so they're not as good of a reversal as you might think. EX is fully invincible, though. -Dora Kick does gain armor at some point, but it's still not very useful. -Whiff parry into chestbump is only -3. Successful parry chestbump and EX chestbump are both more unsafe if blocked. Other than that, I think you got everything!

I don't even play games anymore and I love watching your stuff.

We are finally closing up on the Omega Mode Pure Grapplers. Def can see some of the stuff that went into Abigail. Kind of like Omega Gief, mixed bag. Gief was a mighty glacier but Omega turned that up to 11. USF4 Hugo was also mighty glacier but in Omega he is more of a stone wall. His dmg output isn't as good as other omega characters, but his parry, dp, and high health gives him great defensive attributes. Weird how Omega T Hawk seems like the best grappler even though he is more of a semi-grappler now.

Woah what the fuck, he can chest bump fireballs back? Hugo is BIG

[@Eggs5232]

Omega Hugo is just kinda strange honestly, like some of his combos are more consistent but he lost a lot of others, plus a clap being minus just seems wrong. It's like they slapped the DP and parry on him and didn't really know if that would be broken or not so everything else isn't too impactful.

[@Bafael]

His throw combos actually do as much/more damage than his hit combos, which is pretty strange and interesting.

Thank you for posting these and keeping the game alive

[@Glarfugus]

Another great video, thank you baf -- I remember the Omega doc detailing the parry chest bump with some unknowns, so I'm glad you demystified it here. Hugo is really cool, but the general lack of hard knockdowns in Omega seem to really hurt him in particular :(

[@graylyhen9490]

Holy shit this was two years ago

[@SpitefulAZ]

You never did Rolento Omega :(

[@JNAMOTORSPORTS]

I don’t like when they Nerf characters They should just buff in a game this old
