Street Fighter V/Sagat

From SuperCombo Wiki

Introduction

About Sagat

Battling the Satsui No Hado, Sagat seeks to purge it from himself in a similar path as his rival, Ryu.

Sagat is still the relentless zoner he always has been. However, with fireballs being much weaker in SFV compared to past games, Sagat has to work a little harder to get his job done. Luckily, he still dominates in the aspect of zoning, despite it being somewhat weaker in this entry. His classic game of fireball/anti air is still very much prominent, and made even scarier with his Angry Scar VS1. Sagat is no slouch when it comes to going in, either. He has some exceptional buttons to use to stab at the opponent, and can unload lethal damage from some basic combos. Due to a substantial amount of great pokes, zoning, and anti airs, Sagat is all about controlling space and keeping your opponent away. Give Sagat a shot if you like keeping the opponent at a distance and punishing them severely for any tiny mistakes.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Great anti airs normals and a great dp
  • Fireballs are fast and can actually effectively zone
  • Great Range on many buttons, and kara-cancelling allows him to control more space with his dp\knee
  • Has one of the best -4 punishes in the game on standing opponents with 1 bar. Requires many characters to play much more carefully against him.
  • Notably high damage with super meter or v-meter available
  • Annoyingly good corner-keep game, as well as solid corner carry with his zoning tools.
  • Slow walk speed and only ok dashes, meaning he can't rush in
  • V-shift baiting is especially effective against him due to the nature of his special moves
  • Very big hurtbox, normals stretch it a lot, making whiff punishing easy
  • Somewhat slow buttons startup-wise
  • Gains V-meter more slowly, while giving a lot back
  • Relies heavily on fireballs in a game littered with fireball invincible moves
  • Combos and damage somewhat reliant on having a standing opponent
  • Usually has to decide between damage and oki midscreen, with oki often being tied to meter

Unique Mechanic

Sagat is able to kara cancel his 6MK and 6HK command normals into any of his special moves. Kara canceling a move increases the startup of a move in exchange for moving forward. 6HK is the faster version and travels shorter than 6MK. Some of his more advanced combos require this; however kara canceling his Tiger Uppercut in particular is useful for anti-airing opponents who are just outside of range to normally hit. It can also be used to move forward and throw fireballs for spacing, or increase the range of a Tiger Knee.

SFV Frame Data Glossary
Active

How many frames a move remains active (can hurt opponents) for.

Attack

Attack level is L for low attacks (must be blocked crouching), H is for High attacks (which can be blocked high or low) and M for overhead (must be blocked standing). T is for throw attacks (which cannot be blocked).

Cancel options

Available cancel options.

  • "ch": Chain cancel, refer to description for options.
  • "sp": Special move.
  • "su": Critical art.
  • "vs[1/2]": V-Skill 1 or 2.
  • "vt[1/2]": V-Trigger 1 or 2 activation.
Confirm windows

Hit confirm windows written as Specials & CAs/Target Combos/V-Trigger. Notation may denote V-Skill only cancel windows in Specials.

  • Refers to the amount of time (in frames) you have to cancel into another move from the moment the attack connects with the opponent.
Crush Counter

Crush Counter hit advantage written as opponent state, frame advantage, and v-gauge gain on hit.

Damage

Attack damage on hit. Notation may denote multi-hit or "sweet spot" damage values on certain frames.

Hit/Block

These are frame advantage values when the attack hits or is blocked. If the number is positive, then the move will end before the defender can act again. If the number is negative, the defender will be able to act before the attacker and maybe even punish. KD refers to knockdown on hit.

  • Note that generally, normal counter hits add an additional +2 to hit advantage in SFV.
Knockdown

Knockdown advantage against Normal, Quick Rise and Back Rise wake up options.

Recovery

How many frames it takes for a move to finish after it's been active.

Startup

How many frames it takes before the move becomes 'active' or have a hit box. The last startup frame and the first active frame are the same frame, meaning all values are written as Startup + 1.

Stun

Amount of stun added to the opponent's stun bar on hit.

Shifts back 1.21 range
Fully invincible on frames 1-9 during which time any strike or projectile evaded will trigger a slow-motion effect on frame 11 for both players

Throw invincible on frames 1-16 on an empty / raw V-Shift
Counter-Hit state on frames 10-31 on an empty / raw V-Shift
Opponent can still cancel the attack that was V-Shifted as if it had connected (this allows for a lot of shenanigans)
