Trivia Quiz 02: Superior Turbulence

This challenge consists of thirty-five trivia questions focusing on both CPS2 SF2 games: Super Street Fighter II and Super Turbo. Answer as many as you can off the top of your head and post them as a single comment, without reading through anyone else’s responses.

There are no prizes so there’s no incentive to cheat. Obviously you can do a little research if you like, but it would take too long to verify every single answer. This shouldn’t take anyone longer than an hour to get through. Questions phrased in plural may have singular answers.

Roughly one month from today, i’ll make a separate entry containing all of the answers so you can check how many you got right and find out what you missed. In the meantime, good luck!

    01) SSF2: Generally speaking (exceptions aside), how many new costume palettes did the average returning fighter receive?

    five?

    02) SSF2: How many moves require two or more different buttons to perform?

    i think 8, if you count both yoga teleport distances.

    03) SSF2: Which characters have projectiles that dissipate on-screen?

    chun li…

    04) SSF2: What property makes Vega’s Izuna Drop unique among all other throws?

    it can only be done after a preceding move is executed (the wall dive). it’s also an air throw that can grab grounded opponents.

    05) SSF2: Rank the four dizzy types in order of rarity.

    common to rare: stars, birds, reapers, angels

    06) SSF2: Rank the four dizzy types in order of base duration severity.

    shortest to longest: angels, stars, birds, reapers.

    07) SSF2: Which of these things is not like the others? Ryu’s LP Hadoken, Guile’s MP Sonic Boom, Sagat’s MK Tiger Shot, Dee Jay’s HP Air Slasher

    Ryu’s LP Hadouken can be made red? ehh? or do you count that as a separate move? maybe sagat’s mk tiger shot must be blocked low, and uses a kick button. knowing you, i’m sure it’s more complicated than that ;)

    08) SSF2: List all of the characters located in the top row on the character select screen.

    ryu, honda, blanka, guile

    09) SSF2: Which special moves don’t force crouching opponents to stand up upon connecting?

    any knockdown move or throw, first hit of ken’s fierce shoryu, ryu’s red hadouken, yoga fire, bison’s headstomp

    10) SSF2: Which special moves force standing opponents to crouch upon connecting?

    the first hit of ken’s fierce shoryu, and it almost looks like the first bit of sagat’s hk tiger knee, but no…just the first hit of ken’s fierce shoryu.

    11) SSF2: Which special moves have more frame disadvantage when blocked meaty than if blocked on their first active frame?

    probably yoga flame, uh…

    12) SSF2: Which two characters have two overlapping special move commands?

    i’m guessing by this you mean two sets of overlapping commands? sagat has knee/low tiger shot and upper/high tiger shot; sim’s ppp teleport overlaps his yoga fire, and yoga flame also overlaps it, so that’s not really two sets…

    13) SSF2: Compared to HF, list three major changes to Ryu’s existing special moves.

    air tatsu doesn’t go horizontal, you can’t cancel an air normal into air tatsu, shoryu knocks down

    14) SSF2: Including new characters, how many new air throws were introduced in this game?

  4. Bob Sagat

    01) 4?
    02) This is probably a trick question, but here goes; Lariat and quick lariat for Gief, I believe Sim could already teleport and I think he can teleport forward and backward, not sure anymore, Hawk’s dive, Boxer’s TAP(even though you can do it with either punch or kick, it’s the same move so counts as one), if Vega is anything like his ST version then he’d have 2 variations of his backflip, so if I’m right about Sim and Vega that’s 8.
    03) I’m pretty sure that’s only Chun Li, unless there’s something in SSF2 that they changed in ST.
    04) It can throw characters off the ground as well as in the air?
    05) No idea. Based off of ST experience I guess from not rare to rare; birds, angels, stars, grim reapers.
    06) Stars, birds, angels, grim reapers. (If they’re not different from ST)
    07) I’m guessing Sagat’s MK Tiger Shot because it hits low?
    08) Hm, I only ever played this on the SNES and I think they had the square character lay out there and I think it was Ryu, Chun Li, Blanka, Guile.
    09) Pure speculation; all projectiles, Ken’s Fierce DP, Spinning Bird Kick, Rising Hawk, Tiger Knee, Vega’s rolling attack, Headstomp.
    10) I can’t recall ever seeing this happen.
    11) Hawk Dive? Cannon Drill?
    12) Sagat for low Tiger and TK and I guess Vega since he can choose to either throw or uhm, slash at the end of his walldive.
    13) Pure guessing; You can choose the throw a red fireball now, in stead of it coming out every so often, Air Hurricane Kick doesn’t travel straight anymore… Full invincibility on the rising part of his DP? Dunno if he had that already.
    14) I think Cammy 2, Fei 2, and Gief probably got some new stuff so I’ll guess 6.
    15) Chun Li stomp to any other normal, Ken cancel punch to hurricane, Bison can do the skulldiver after headstomp and Hawk can cancel a very early rising jump jab into Dive, so I guess 4.
    16) Has to be jab version.
    17) Probably Blanka, Bison and Dee Jay.
    18) CPU Akuma throws 2 air fireballs.
    19) 6? I think they were all new colours, since even their standard colour was gone in ST.
    20) Guile, Blanka, Dhalsim, Sagat, Dee Jay, Balrog, Bison. 7.
    21) Technically it would be all of them, since them going backward in stead of forward counts as different animation, but in terms of frames… I think it’s 10.
    22) They’re all multihit and they all juggle, but Dhalsim’s Super doesn’t travel across the screen.
    23) Ryu, Ken, Dhalsim, Fei Long, Bison and I guess Akuma, because I don’t think any of the other characters can.
    24) Does that mean like you can hit someone for 2 hits after it connects? Chun Li’s super, Dee Jay’s super, Fei’s super, Sagat’s super and Fierce Tiger Uppercut, Bison’s super. That’s all I can think of.
    25) No idea.
    26) Guile 6 and I think Chun hits 6 times as well. Everyone else is like 5 or lower.
    27) Honda maximum 4, Dee Jay 4, Bison I think does 4 and then there’s the throw types which don’t make the combo counter show up at all; Gief’s, Hawk’s and Vega’s supers. So I’m not quite sure what you’re going for with this question.
    28) Hawk’s and Vega’s supers, which can only be activated within grab range and once activated will always connect. Gief’s super was designed to act like this as well, but through a glitch it can still whiff.
    29) Blanka can delay his super and Balrog can choose to do uppercuts or straight punches at any point during the super.
    30) Probably a trick question but… 3?
    31) I suppose you mean grounded overhead attacks, no jumping attacks? Then I believe it would be the three only characters(if I’m not mistaken) which have a standing overhead attack; Ryu, Ken and Fei Long. Ryu can do forward + strong as an overhead and can juggle with his super and his jumping strong, Ken can use the axe kick variation of his kick specials as an overhead and juggle with his super, though only the super itself can juggle, non of his other moves can and Fei can do forward/backward + forward kick as an overhead and both his super and Chicken Wing can juggle.
    32) Command throw characters? Gief, Hawk, Vega and Honda?
    Or grab characters? Ken, Gief, Blanka, Dhalsim, Honda, Hawk and Balrog? (Since grabs can’t be softened)
    Or is it just Blanka, Hawk and Balrog, since they only have grab type throws, no normal throws? (Typhoon is inescapable anyway, so it doesn’t count.)
    33) Chun Li can follow up her super with upkicks, the first hit of Blanka’s super launches the opponent who can be juggled by the remainder of the super, Fei Long can follow up his super with Chicken Wing, Dee Jay can follow up his super with upkicks or vice versa, I think the last hit of Cammy’s super hits in mid-air, dunno if that counts, Vega can follow up his offensive flip with another one, Sagat can follow up his super with fierce Tiger Upper or vice versa and Bison can follow up his super with jumping strong. I don’t think Ryu has enough time to follow up his super with jumping strong if his opponent was on the ground when it connected, though maybe the corner can buy him some time, I dunno about that.
    34) I don’t think O.Guile can do hop forward kick, only Knee Bazooka. He also doesn’t have step roundhouse I believe. I’m not sure about what he has that N.Guile doesn’t.
    I’ll just say N.Guile has 3 normals exclusive to him, hop forward/backward forward kick + step roundhouse. Technically Knee Bazooka is the same move, but N.Guile uses short to perform it, O.Guile uses forward I think. Could count as one more.
    35) Ryu, Guile, T.Hawk, Sagat… I think that’s it.

  5. Bob Sagat

    Fudge, should have added the questions, though I’ve got way too much text already in there…

    Bob Sagat: Answers only is fine. I don’t mind either way but it’s less clutter without reposting the questions.

  8. Bob Sagat

    Damn, on 15) I forgot to add Ryu, who can cancel jump strong to hurricane kick and of course Bison can do two strong punches in the air as well, even though I did add him to my list.
