nice work!

Thanks. I'm trying to come up with psych games to force players to jump but its tricky. You'd be surprised how many people try to jump out of corners when you're sweep distance away from them_^)

I agree, and it's a lot more work to land. You can always focus crumple some of the roster and then do a rising blizzard for a combo but that's tricky itself. It also can't catch people well when they jump away which really bites. I still prefer landing this one though for some reason. Just, more satisfying_^) No one will ever cross me up ever again.

It's a mid-air ultra but you can definitely find ways to jump off the ground slightly and land it. Only airborne enemies can be grabbed.

You're talking about quick get up strategies right? Those are good suggestions and a jump in can definitely scare people from trying to even do a standard anti-air if they have one and with empty jump ins to throws. Still, this ultra is hard to gauge and guess correctly if you jump in early. It's all guess work I find. The most reliable times I find it working is if you can adapt to your opponents jumping style but that takes a few rounds.

I love this Ultra, best in game!!

I'm definitely using pad. I buffer the 720 and time it as the animation finishes for the other players ultra. It's all about timing and putting in the motion while you can't leave the ground. Technically you can throw a long animated normal attack and buffer and do it off the ground. Great counter against people who have you knocked down usually. You said you haven't done it before but you're saying right off the ground I'm assuming.

Whoever grabbed you must have gotten lucky. Ex spiral is too hard to see coming. I'm sorry to hear about your experience. If it makes you feel better, I grabbed a Juri during her ultra 1 on me in the corner. The player did an overhead and I got up with the blizzard. KO.

So damn hard to land but so satisfying. I never pick Ultra 1 anymore ;p

That's right Gief! :D

Heh agreed. Granted, I made this when the game was new so I thought it was cool to show it beating others ultras_^) I do only use this ultra over FAB because it's funner. I usually land it on people who like to crossup on wakeup predominantly. Or after focus crumple on the big characters.

Hyeah, I would have liked to too, first attempt. I need to learn how to do that. Thanks for the advice. I'll probably just end up recording more carefully though.

but the fun part is when you see the opponent getting grabbed by this move. Believe they will be like WTF?!

@Drakulbites Quite right, anything mid-air EXCEPT Vega U1 from what I've seen. I love this ultra but it's very difficult to land properly. Great for Honda's who like to use heavy rams but lariat beats that clean so you won't see people use it too too much. I hear in the new arcade edition we get to steer this ultra!

Buffer refers to doing the motion during another animation. So, in essence you're hiding the 720 motion so you don't telegraph it to the other player. For example, I could do his quick lariat from a distance but be doing the 720 motion during the lariat. If my opponent decided to jump and attack my head I can jump right at them with his ultra. I also do my 720's starting up and end up with "up" as the last portion of the 720. Requires some timing though.

@noJutsu1000 Siberian Blizzard is completely air invulnerable. So if you're getting hit it must be because you've landed before she moved into the air I'm thinkin.

Also useful for Guile players who like to force you to jump with sonic booms and try to air throw you. Nailed someone in the air with it once_^)

(MultiMAGICDAN) Gotta hit the kicks the second you take off for the air. It's not viable online but hey you can always do a focus underneath him too if you want to get away.

Hyeah, in theory it definitely seems like a good move but it is difficult to time especially for non ultra moves. I've done his ex throw a lot of times online instead of the siberian blizzard much to my disappointment. Still, the option is there and sometimes you have nothing to lose by trying it_^)
