Since you brought it up Rawfish, I'll just a give a bit of Balrog info:

When you want to Ultra someone in the air (juggle or counter hit), the easiest way for most damage is that you miss the second hit completely regardless, regardless of what the first hit was.

So it's PPKKK or KPKKK. The reason you miss the second hit is that when it hits, you either hit up to the 4th hit and miss the 5th (the most damaging one) or you hit only the first two hits and then the guy falls down BEHIND Balrog, which is really bad.

He can also actually Ultra from more positions than what I showed in the tournament, but I couldn't react fast enough on a pad.

Through my limited knowledge (I don't use boxer), corner and mid-screen ranges are different, and yes the safest is KPKKK (2nd hit whiffs) I've seen most people connect it when opp. falls head to upper-torso level.

I can imagine you on a pad and yet still using a charge character. Painful to retain DB charges and/or charge buffers. Good for you to stick to it when you had chances to use a stick, which you were not used to.

good games everybody... though my cammy didn't perform well on the second day... finally get to meet the online players and get to put their faces on the psn id... hehehe

I use cammy by the way... lost to zangief...

good games, good time...

Oh finally ive found this thread. xD

Couldnt make it to the 2nd day since Ive fallen sick (was already sick a day before the tourney but since i was desperate to get my SFIV fix, i joined anyway, heck even bought a stick, though ive only won once out of six matches T__T), I'm sure the matches're all exciting and regret not being there. Nonetheless, I'm glad to see that we now have a SF4 scene and i could only wish it to get bigger.

Nice meeting most of the guys at the tourney, I'm leaving back to Japan in 2 weeks and I was hoping maybe if there're any more tourneys/mini tourneys or even casuals, do let me know.. Id like to practice my Abel more, need to get back on my game .

Last but not least, mad props to the organizers for organizing the event. Despite a few setbacks, I think overall its a well managed event.

We need more of this kinda thing in Malaysia!

wuahh , looks like my fei long didnt make it

DEAR STREET FIGHTER FANS !!!!

First of all, on behalf of the organizer, sponsors, partners and myself would like to say thank you to all of you and of course, CONGRATULATIONS to all the winners. Thank you for making this event a SUCCESS !!! We seriously cannot do it without you guys. The whole event is a success only when you guys are around....I am sure most of us had witness the MALAYSIAN STREET FIGHTING skills and I am very sure that we do have international standards...

Now, before I go on any further...If there is any way during the tournament that we make mistakes or said something wrong or made you guys waited for sometime for your match...we apologize in advance. I know there is some small setbacks and i hope you guys really did enjoy the 2 days tournament.

Street Fighter has been in my life since it came out and I told myself that I must do this event no matter what. I would love too to take part and later I think organizing it would be even better. I have seriously missed the time where we used to go to sungeiwang and fight among all and get POW...hahaha...seeing the scene yesterday really reminds me of myself during the younger time. You guys really did brought back that moment for me and I THANK YOU !!! HA and I got to dressed as RYU too...what else could I ask for more?

OK OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCE THE WINNER HERE:


STREET FIGHTER 4 MALAYSIA CHAMPION 2009 : KENNETH AW (RYU)
RUNNER UP: MAK KIEN LEONG (KEN)
THIRD: KHOO KIAN CHUAN (BLANKA)
FOURTH: AIMAN ( BALROG)

I am draing the knock out score board now and will post it once its done.

Kenneth walk away with a Sony Playstation 3 and Street Figther 4 sponsored by SONY and RYU's Red Bandana...please bring bandana back next year ok?Tristan won himself a Dual Shock 3 controller and a Unreal Tournament Title. While Khoo got himself a Wireless Bluetooth and Aiman got himself a ps3 game of Unreal Tournament as well.

Also not forgetting Alissa who is the first Gal in any Street Fighter Tournament Malaysia who reached the Knock out stage !!!

After the Tournament, all of us walked into the Cinema in Cathay and we witnessed a rematch between Kenneth and Trstanx on the silver screen !!! And Kenneth of course...still remain the title even it was a rematch. I hope those who were in the cinema hall early before the movie enjoyed playing a few rounds of Street Fighter 4 on the big screen as it was a dream for me to play at such huge screen. Thanks to Cathay and Sony for giving us the opportunity to do so. It will be a memory....of perhaps, we will do it inside cinema hall next time? HAHAAH

Also to inform you guys that Outpost is planning for more street fighter league every week and preparing a place for all street fighter fans to do friendlies !!! Will create new post soon...

congratulations to Outpost Mini Tournament too: Both champion of Winners Pool and Losers pool won 2 original ps3 Shaun White and the rest of the contestant who didnt make it won lots of goodies too...

1st of all, Thank you Alan and his team for bringing this tournament up!
Although I did not join, I definitely feel very happy to see Malaysian are so active in gaming community.
And also, for the 1st time I went to watch a SF tournament live! Instead of online streaming

Also, I want to thank rawfish to explain many covered information already.
Having short term memories and couldn't remember everything correctly.

I think adding a projector screen, so it's easy for us to watch from far
