jumping: MK(never use this to build meter)

standing: HP(ground version is much better

crouching: HP


Cyclops:
----------
Jumping: HK

standing: optic blast(medium version)

crouching: optic blast(low version is his best version)



Characters that build meter the fastest(ranking):


Sentinel
Cyclops
Ryu
Chunli
Wolverine

Though the character builds meter the fastest, doesn't mean that they are the best. For example, Sentinel builds meter the fastest, yet he is a bad character, he has a bad super due to the lag time when he's about to do it, and when the super opens up, it's ready to get nailed by a faster beam super.

Ranking supers in the game:

Shinkuu Hadouken
Mega optic blast
Kikoushou
Senretsukyaku(Chunli's kick super)
Geometric blast
Killer Instinct(healing super)
Berserker Barrage X
----------------------------------
Shinkuu tastumaki Senpuu Kyaku
Plasma Storm
Hazan Tenshou Kyaku


The reason I put that line is because the bottom supers are just put worthless, never use them. Even if you are Sentinel, and since that's your only super, don't use it unless you have it in you that it'll connect. BBX is a super that can't really be connected, it can be comboed into which is deadly, since the BBX can take off as much as 3/4 of your life. That's why when people play against Wolverine, they jump a lot.

fave trick of mine is rapidly tapping back. If the enemy is doing any attack, then I'll block multiple times, which builds the meter VERY quickly. Plus, you take little damage while doing it--if they use a super, just hold back; since you were already blocking a lot, your block will have priority over the super (unless you're really slow)

and why didnt you include chun li's fireball? it builds the meter really quickly, ESPECIALLY if you're really close to the enemy when you do it. Multiple hits, and a hugely built super meter to boot (first time i think I've used that phrase, btw).

i don't think the super of SENT should be under that line, i agree that it takes a skilled player to do it right. but with lag, almost all supers goes under that line as i saw lots of people getting in while the opponent does the super !

but definetely, when i use SENT super, 4 out of 5 times, i actually hit the opponent and i just pull it at random !
this combined with an helpers is almost a sure hit !
