As (XA)-Veteran I’ve been around, since the beginning of SFO. It is definitely a better experience when you win..

How to superjump?

Basic Commands
Walk Left: (press and hold "A") / / Walk Right: (press and hold "D") /
Crouch: (press and hold "S") / / Jump: (press "W" once) /
Dash Left: (double tap "A") / / Dash Right: (double tap "D") /
High Jump: / / Long Jump: /
Taunt/Start: (default is "#1") / / Rapid: (quickly tap attack button) /
Punch's
Any Punch: (press any U,I,O, button) / / Light Punch: (default is "U") /
Medium Punch: (default is "I") / / Hard Punch: (default is "O") /
Kick's
Any Kick: (press any J,K,L, button) / / Light Kick: (default is "J") /
Medium Kick: (default is "K") / / Hard Kick: (default is "L") /

As you can see from that site… The best technique that you should practice right now is high jump and long jump.

I will focus on LONG JUMP. I’ve played SFO for years and not been able to super jump perfectly until now.

  • Super jumping will get you to the other side behind youropponent.. Making your specials more likely to work
  1. Hold the direction you want to go(EX: RIGHT KEY such as ‘D’).. If you’re opponent is right then probably this should be right(same for left..)
  2. Press DOWN +UP (SW) ..QUICKLY
  3. If you did it right u should fly behind your opponent
  4. If not try again but press it really fast and make sure you HOLD the direction and are not JUMP LOCKED(you will see a JL icon)

How Many wins do you need to get ranks 1-10?

  • Get a rank in the top 50
  • Type your name and click Submit
  • It will tell you how many wins you need to get rank 1… Provided you are rank 50 or above
  • Note: this is an approximate number of wins.. If you play good ranks like rank 1, you will quickly gain points
  • Best way to gain points is to BRAWL with a strong partner or pick onslaught in 2v1 tag, by choosing hulk(hold LIGHT KICK MEDIUM PUNCH HARD KICK) as your helper and picking 2 of the same character

Character Tutorials

Note: these tutorials just tell you the extra details on characters, be sure to master the moves on the characters before learning the tutorial

EVERY Character

  • Press back to block specials! (VERY IMPORTANT)
  • Launch projectiles to block raging demon..
  • Keep an eye on your opponents level bar
  • Set your SFO options to slow connection mode
  • This will increase the chances that you won’t lose because of lag ;)

Juggernaut tutorial

(XA)-Veteran’s Forum Tutorial Part1

PEOPLE TO SURVIVE MY JUGG
Dub-DroDK (SPIDERMAN)
(XA)G33K (JUGG)
(X-F)Prothon (Wolverine)

BODY PRESS can be performed in the air!
JUGGERNAUT MOVES SITE

JUGGERNAUT DWX MANUAL .. Tells you things like ..which moves go through hadokens.


NEW 2009 TECHNIQUES for ~XA~FIE_SQUAD
JUGG VS. AKUMA
.. Watch out for RD block with EARTHQUAKES..
Now when you use earthquake you are vulernable to akumas aerial special or his punching special (maybe..) ..so be careful..
Against SHOTOS use headcrush
Use down back punch ..(earthquake)
JUGG VS. WOLVERINE
Super jump use DOWN+UP
Charge your special in the air
(I think hard punch or medium punch in the air is the fastest way..)
then use RAGING DEMON at level 2 ... if wolverine has no levels its game over!
JUGG VS. SPIDERMAN
against spider man.. Web kick blocks your specials and the snake blocks pretty much everythjing..BUT
You can HEAL (FORWARD DOWN FORWARD+TWO PUNCHES)
JUGG VS. SENTINEL
Against most sentinels they will just rocket punches over and overso jump forward and BLOCKthen keep using HARD PUNCHES.. Be careful if they go behind you.. And BLOCK EVERY SINGLE SPECIAL .. By pressing back... Or if you are close by then use light punch ...
sentinels RD can be dangerous
If sentinel cloaks.. Then projectiles won't work so you will have to use melee a lot
just keep hard punching and jumping hard punch on the sentinel ...
I think people are most vulnerable after a level 1 COMBO to damage
------
they spam melee u RD
they spam hadokens u level 1
EARTQUAKE + LEVEL 1 SPECIAL SEEMS TO DO BETTER DAMAGE
JUGGERNAUT
HIT WITH A MELEE BEFORE SPECIAL SO ITS HARDER FOR THEM TO BLOCK
Juggernaut versus shotos
earthquake then charge.. down forward punch.. and it will own them!
the idea is you break their hadokens and plus your projectiles attack them along with your
charging attack
Juggernaut versus spiderman
they will be cheap if they are VIP with the snake
but just use EARTHQUAKE FROM BEHIND
if you are getting hit with the SNAKE block and jump behind
and earthquake or LEVEL 1 Special from behind
while the spiderman is using the snake in the other corner.. you can
IN SUMMARY TO BEAT THE LAME SPIDERMAN
1) EARTHQUAKE FROM BEHIND
2) CHARGE UP CITORAK POWER UP..FORWARD TWO FORWARD+TWO PUNCHES
3) LEVEL 1 SPeCIAL
Watch out for MAXIMUM SPIDER .. make sure to use earthquakes and block
if they move closer with the snake.. its tricky match =(
JUGGERNAUT VERSUS WOLVERINE
Rd when he has no levels and its game over
HARD PUNCH and light eartquake..effective against wolvy .. close range..
owned wolverine with aerial dive and punches
the "Cheap" jugg aspect i guess is spamming his aerial dive which takes about 2 units of health..

(XA)-Veteran’s Forum Tutorial Part2

the rocky Express a.k.a ROCKY BALBOA
Earthquake and HEADCRUSH AFTER
VS CYCLOPS
OR ANYONE AERIAL.. JUST SMASH THEM IN THE AIR
JUGGERNAUT CATCH
Catch them in the air with HEAD CRUSH
JUGGERNAUT SWORD
Remember u can use the sword for melee attack
the punch from FRONT AND BEHIND..
A.kA> the REVERSAL
you can go behind them and punch .. Seems effective
GOOD MOVE: 2 HEADCRUSHES RIGHT AFTER EACH OTHER..(similar to onslaught)
KEEP AERIAL DIVE AND HARD PUNCH TO LEVLE up
VS WOLVERINE
USE THE SWORD TO REDUCE HIS HEALTH AND JUGGLE HIM IN THE AIR
DEFEND AND CONQUER
EFFECTIVE AGAINST WOLVERINE, BLOCK HIS DASHING .. HE WILL GET BEHIND U THEN PUNCH HIM!
VERSUS ANYONE
-FIRE EARTHQUAKE .. Then use JUGGENRAUT PUNCH OR LUNGING DIVE..
Use HEADCRUSH BUT GET CLOSE SO IT GETS MORE TIME
TOUCHING HTEM.. THUS MORE DAMGE
SUPERJUMP to LEVEL UP FASTER
VERSUS SPIDERMAN
1 PUNCH AND THEN HEAD CRUSH .. ASSUMING THE PUNCH HITS HIM
you CAN use medium punch without getting hurt by the spider... (when you are in the other corner..)
VERSUS SENTINEL
do FORWARD+PUNCH (hadoken canceller) followed by RAGING DEMON...
if they are scared of RD they must use missles and are weak against his FORWARD+PUNCH
use LARGE DOWN FORWARD HARD PUNCH earthquakes against spider man with JUGGERNAUT PUNCHES
THE DIVE AND CHARGE
uSE THE AERIAL ATTACK THING.. FOLLOWED BY JUGGERNAUT PUNCHES TO SAFELY CHARGE
Using AERIAL DIVE is HIGHLY EFFECTIVE>. EVEN USING THAT MOVE ALONE 3 times against spidey..

Strategy 1

attack from the back!

Use HEADCRUSH.. But do it from behind them

It will take about 4 units

Strategy 2

Do 5 medium or hard juggernaut punches that will take about 5 units(half their health)

against SENTINEL

Use the HADOKEN CRUSHER move.. FORWRAD AND HARD PUNCH

And then u can use citorak power up

Strategy 3

1 citorak powerup and 2 HEAD CRUSHES can bring them close to KOS

Jugg vs Jugg

Keep hitting them with hard punches, and use super jump and hard punches to charge your special. Be sure to use earthquake (FORWARD DOWN +PUNCH) to block their raging demon when they are at level 2

Sentinel tutorial

  • HOLOGRAM
  • Forward down forward+two kicks
  • Your sentinel has an illusion version which confuses your opponent
  • VINDICATED (CLOAKING)
  • Use down forward+TWO KICKS)
  • No hadokens can harm you now
  • FLYING
  • Down back+two kicks
  • You can block ryus specials and stuff and be safer when flying
  • The newbie lock
  • If someone is a weak player just use
  • ROCKET PUNCH
  • DOWN FORWARD+LIGHT PUNCH
  • Keep doing it to them in a corner
  • Use DOWN UP FORWARD(superJUMP) to get behind them and increase the chances that your specials synchronize
  • Against spider man
  • Keep launching sentinel force(DOWN FORWARD+HARDkicks
  • Beware of crawler assault (it goes through projectiles)

Wolverine Tutorial

  • (X-A)lilheatoo is the one who taught me this
  • Get to level 3 with wolverine
  • Use DOWN FORWARD+TWO KICKS
  • Then use WEAPON X (forward down forward+TWO PUNCHES)
  • Wolverine can trip people(down forward+HARD PUNCH)
  • Wolverine can do drill claws(it uses some of your levels)
  • PRESS LIGHT KICK + MEDIUM PUNCH (fast)
  • KEEP USING TORNADO CLAW OVER AND OVER (forward down forward+hard punch)
  • This charges your specials very fast
  • Use charging dive or whatever (DOWN BACK+PUNCH ) to bypass hadokens
  • Use healing factor
  • Down back+two kicks

Akuma Tutorial

  • If vindicated use DOWN FORWARD+KICK
  • A pretty good move for getting around and doing a bit of damage
  • Use Light SHOURYKENS (FORWARD DOWN FORWARD+LIGHT PUNCH)
  • This can do good and its hard to block
  • Master ASHUARA WARP
  • 1 trick if you are a VIP is to press DOWN BACK+START (rage factor),. To convert to your NON VIP form.. So that your RAGING DEMON does extreme damages
  • To do (LEVEL 1 VIP or LEVEL 3 NON VIP) raging demon press LIGHT PUNCH, FORWARD, LIGHT KICK HARD PUNCH (UDJO or UAJO)
  • To do LEVEL 2 VIP raging demon press
  • LIGHT PUNCH BACK LIGHT KICK HARDpunch
  • Another trick for VIPS
  • Get 2 LEVELS
  • Super jump in the air
  • Press DOWN FORWARD+TWO KICKS
  • You will hit the opponent with lightning which will stun them
  • Quickly launch a raging demon..and they won’t have time to block it if they were hit directly with lightning
  • A trick for non-VIPS (BUBBLE PLUS PUNCHINGCOMBOS)
  • Get 2 LEVELS
  • Launch a hadoken and when you are sure you won’t be hit by a hadoken
  • Use DOWN BACK+TWO KICKS (THE BUBBLE ATTACK)
  • This does good damage
  • Right before this attack finishes press
  • DOWN FORWARD +TWO PUNCHES
  • This let’s you bypass hadokens
  • If you do 2 ashura warps in a row you can get behind your opponent
  • You can then quickly use RAGING DEMON (at level 3 or level 1 if non-VIP)
  • Keys: FORWARD
  • DOWN FORWARD+TWO KICKS (SD +JK or SA+JK)
  • KEYS:BACK
  • DOWN BACK+TWO PUNCHES

Ryu Tutorial

Okay, now assuming you can do hadokens..

  • Jump and use hard kicks( that hit your oopponent) block and get close to them
  • Why?
  • Hard kicks
  • They block specials and do decent damage and are fast
  • Another combo.. Get to level 2 then use
  • DOWN BACK+TWO KICKS (SPIN KICK COMBO)
  • FOLLOWED BY
  • FORWARD DOWN FORWARD+TWO PUNCHES(UPPERCUT COMBO)

The spin kicks will bring them close and right before the spin kick finishes press the uppercut combo and usually they won’t be able to block it in time

  • Use super jump to the other side
  • I’m pretty sure easy jumps needs to be on in your SFO settings for it to work
  • Now you can hard kick them from behind..
  • How?
  • Press DOWN UP FORWARD (SWD) very fast, you will jump above the screen to the other side
  • Now when you are close to the corner and facing that edge of the screen
  • Use down forward hard punch and you can do about 6 hadokens while in the air
  • This helps charge your specials ..

How To Improve SFO Performance:

Many XA

  • Increasing your resolution makes a huge difference
  • i.e. Instead of 800x600 mine is 1280x1024
  • I also have the video card drivers etc. installed
  • Use downloaded version
  • Get it here
  • Also use the Game Vindicator .. you get more moves!
  • Get it here
  • Example:
  • Sentinel’s cloaking (level 1 combo)
  • Hadokens don’t hurt you! ..(down forward+two kicks)

How to Host

Original Tutorial by (XA)-Veteran on:

  • Hosting makes it easier to get your rank up..

Port Forwarding TutorialThere are 2 scenarios

  1. behind router
  2. not behind router(direct )

#2 is the trickiest

SFO has a tutorial but mostly for intermediate computer users...

XA FORUM TutorialOFFICIAL SFO DOCUMENT:HOW TO HOST BEHIND A ROUTER

Okay...

Now step 1.

.. Clickstart menu.Or press the windows icon

Next clickRUN.

Typecmd.exe

Hit ENTER

Typeipconfig

Take a note of your IP address.. In my case

MY IP ADDRESS:192.168.2.34

Step 2

LOGIN to your router.

Go to your router and check what model it is,

Look at the label somewhere on it for a model number..

Google the model number and search for

(router name)

Linksys router default password

Step 3

(logged in to your router)

LOOK FOR

  • port forwarding
  • Virtual servers

Or search Google for "how to port forward (router name)"

Then follow those steps for your IP

192.168.2.34

you will most likely have to enter the

LOCAL IP 192.168.2.34

Port 1626

TCP/UDP ... You can select BOTH if you see it.

Then click apply or save..

Step 4

In SFO, once

  • you're router is set
  • You've disabled your firewall

You are now ready to configure SFO itself.

  1. Login to SFO
  2. Click OPTIONS on the MAIN MENU
  3. click the NETWORK TAB
  4. PUBLIC IP you can type "AUTO" (no quote) in there
  5. LOCAL IP set it to your IP

You're screen should now look like this

Get White/Dark-forms if you are VIP with a key combo
