SSFIV AE Ver.2012 – Cammy Safe Jump Set-up against Zangief by Alioune

by USD on November 9th, 2012 at 12:44 pm

France’s Cammy specialist Alioune has uploaded a video showing off a safe Cannon Strike set-up from Cammy’s back throw that literally beats all of Zangief’s wake-up reversal options. The set-up used creates a true blockstring, so if Zangief blocks the Strike, he can’t use reversal Quick Double Lariat to interrupt the string. Reversal Double Lariat and Quick Double Lariat are both stuffed during start-up by the Strike, producing a counter-hit. A reversal EX Atomic Suplex will armor through the Strike but triggers before Cammy actually lands, whiffing. Finally, Reversal EX SPD, EX Banishing Flat and backdash all lose to an option-select Cannon Spike, or, as shown in the video, Ultra Combo 1.

Focus

  Focus gets beat by the followup jab, as shown by that EX command grab.

    No it doesn’t, you backdash out of range which kills the option select too

      If you focus he can ultra1/spiral i’d guess.

      doesn’t work like that, if you backdash, the os comes out.

        not if you focus backdash mister

        Yes, that’s how it works. If you focus backdash the jab will whiff and Ultra 1 will come out.

        no it wont. he has to react to that with u1 after to catch the backdash.

        Buffering ultra during the crouch jab means you don’t have to react.
        
        You focus cannon strike
        c.Jab comes out during backdash invincibility
        Buffered U1 comes out once jab recovers, catching you in backdash recovery

        Jay Rego is right. The ultra will not come out if you focus the cannon strike. The whole idea is that if it makes contact, it doesn’t come out. Focus counts as contact. For you other guys saying that the jab will whiff and then the ultra will come out, he’s option selecting the cannon strike, not the jab after. If he was option selecting jab -> ultra, ex spd would win.
        
        However! He could option select the cannon strike AND jab and as long as you can combo the stand short into something afterwards. Oh yeah, if he was option selecting jab into ultra, the short would be standing and not crouching too. Gotta end with dat forward!

Pretty much just focus and hit or focus and back dash or hey… what everyone does is just block to the point I have to bust out a focus attack and smash them.

  If you don’t backdash, you’ll get hit by the crouch jab, because you’ve already absorbed the divekick. Everyone who has tried to focus vs cannon strike has failed because of this.
  
  If you focus backdash, Cammy can OS Ultra 1.

    The OS is between the divekick and the jab, not between the jab and the short.
    
    You can tell because the ultra comes out before the jab comes out when he uses EX hand and EX spd.
    
    So the ultra wouldn’t come out.

      Also the ex spd would win if it was jab os ultra! What if you option selected both the cannon strike and jab into ultra? That’d be dirty shit. It’s a pain but its viable as long as you can combo after a stand short at 2nd hit range.

What about 360+K Armor cancelled into U1? Is it meaty? If not, Instant air U2?

  And this is the next step to SF4. Lets get on Desk’s level, folks.
  
  Armor cancel time.

  You can do that?!?
  - http://twitter.com/Doopliss_Swe Doopliss_SWE
    
    Yes, if it’s a meaty it should be quite easy too, just mash 360, press KK, and then quickly PPP.
