Street Fighter 3: 2nd Impact/Oro

Introduction

Oro is a zoner who wants to use his large buttons, fireballs, and incredibly strong EX fireball to create a wall that forces mistakes out of his opponent. He does very low damage off of his long range hits, and doesn't have a super that lets him fix that issue, so you're going to need a punish or anti air to get high damage. However, once he gets his big hit, he can potentially TOD with strong unblockable set ups. He's definitely low tier, but his fantastic punish game and tracking EX fireball make him a threat in the right hands.

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
2	-	-	8	+5
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	+4
Fast jab tied for his fastest move. Only thing it can go into is stLK, and that's a 1 frame link since 2I's combo system works weirdly. Still important for establishing pressure since it's one of his most plus normals.

5LP

Stand LP

File:2i oro st.lp 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
4	-	-	15	0
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	-1
Pretty bad normal, it's basically never better than stLK. Only thing it really has is range, but since it barely does any damage and isn't even advantageous on hit, that doesn't mean much.

5LK (cl)

Close LK
(cl)

File:2i oro cl.lk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
2	-	-	8	+4
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	+3
Good move, but generally slightly worse than clLP since it has one less frame of advantage on hit and block. Does slightly more damage than clLP though, so it is somewhat better in cancels, not that you should really be using either in combos.

5LK

Stand LK

File:2i oro st.lk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
3	-	-	12	+2
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	+1
One of Oro's better moves, good range and is actually plus on hit, so you can use it to start pressure. It's also fast, so it's good for poking out of pressure at longer range.

5MP (cl)

Close MP

File:2i oro cl.mp 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
5	-	-	26	launch
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	H	-3
Probably Oro's most important move. Starts his damaging juggle combos and unblockable set ups. This is your main punish and anti air.

5MP

Stand MP

File:2i oro st.mp 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
8	-	-	28	-3
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	H	-5
Terrible poke. Minus on hit and whiffs on crouch, so it is outclassed by basically every other poke Oro has. Don't use it.

5MK (cl)

Close MK
(cl)

File:2i oro cl.mk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
4	-	-	22	-3
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	H	-5
Useful combo tool. Special cancellable, so it's important for post unblockable combos.

5MK

Stand MK

File:2i oro st.mk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
8	-	-	26	-3
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	H	-5
Mediocre poke. It's pretty minus on hit, so it's dangerous to use against a lot of characters. Generally outclassed by stHK.

5HP

Stand HP

File:2i oro st.hp 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
17	-	-	39	-1
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	H	-4
Good mixup tool. Not a terrible hurtbox, either, so it can be used as a counterpoke.

5HK

Stand HK

File:2i oro st.hk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
7	-	-	28	-1
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	H	-4
One of Oro's best pokes. Only -1 on hit, so it's fairly safe to throw out. Deals really good damage and stun.

Crouching Normals

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
4	-	-	15	+1
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	0
Pretty much just a better version of stand LP, being slightly more plus as well as being chain cancellable into itself, although this won't combo.

2LK

Crouch LK
+

File:2i oro cr.lk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
4	-	-	15	+1
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	L	0
Doesn't have great range, but hits low and chain cancels into itself, but, again, it won't combo. Almost always outclassed by crouch MK.

2MP

Crouch MP
+

File:2i oro cr.mp 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
7	-	-	25	-3
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	-5
Extremely long range poke, but is so minus that you can't use it against most characters with super.

2MK

Crouch MK
+

File:2i oro cr.mk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
6	-	-	21	+2
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	L	0
One of Oro's most important tools, being a fast low that's great for building meter. While it's range is lacking, it's also one of Oro's few normals to have the hitbox reach further than the hurtbox, so it isn't useless as a poke, either.

2HP

Crouch HP
+

File:2i oro cr.hp 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
6	-	-	28	+2
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	-1
Another normal that's useful for meter build, although that is probably it's only use. Might work as an anti air sometimes, but close MP is better in basically every way.

2HK

Crouch HK
+

File:2i oro cr.hk 1.png

Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit
10	-	-	32	knockdown
Damage	Stun	Guard	Parry	Block
-	-	-	A	-5
Pretty mediocre sweep, but does give a knockdown, so it can be useful for Oro.
