Real Bout Fatal Fury 2/Rick Strowd

From Dream Cancel Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Gameplay Overview

One of the titular newcomers to Real Bout 2, Rick is a notorious offensive powerhouse with amazing pressure, loads of combo chains and the ability to cash out with obscene amounts of damage and corner carry on a clean hit. He has pretty much everything you could need to win, even a projectile. Some of his attacks are easy to bait out and Breakshot but playing defense against Rick means letting him get his game started, so you're playing with fire the entire time. He sits deservedly in the top tier.

Pros Cons
  • Strong suite of normals and combo chains
  • High combo damage and also has an infinite
  • Smothering pressure
  • Multiple special moves with evasive properties, invincibility, or built-in movement
  • Two unblockables, one of which is a Breakshot and can lead to a juggle
  • Sick stage theme
  • Slow overhead that's easily reacted to, limiting his high/low mixup
  • No special ways to get around zoning, and his only projectile is his P-Power
  • Attacks are commonly easy to Breakshot

Special Moves

Shooting Star
236A/C
A Version
C Version
Version Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Advantage Block Advantage Guard Cancel BS Juggle
A 2,4,4,24(26) - 10-19 9 11 +2 -4 HL - Y N

Your most common combo tool and also a way to quickly move forward. When input, Rick will dash forward, and if he reaches the opponent within a 9 frame period, he will launch into a four-hitting combo, and undergo 11 frames of recovery if he doesn't. The attack itself is basically safe on block outside of lightning fast punishes, but very easy to Breakshot. The sheer distance this move covers lets Rick threaten an approach from a great distance away, and he can space it to get in without attacking and go for a cheap throw. Be warned that hitting an airborne opponent with this will frequently leave Rick open for a punish.

C 7,7,8,8,19(39) - 25 2,2(7)3(3)2(18)2,12 23 KD -13 HL - N N

Can't combo into it, unsafe on block, slow as hell. Don't use it.

Shooting Star EX

7,7,8,8,11,6,3*6(+47) - 13 2,2(7)3,4,2(10)4(14)23 23 KD -13 HL - N N

A improved version of Rick's Shooting Star. Consumes a bit of meter, so be careful. You can use it for combos like the A version, but that's it. Terrible for Blockstrings, as Rick starts punching regardless if he hit the opponent or not, so just stick to using it as a combo tool, since it can start the infinite.

Blazing Sunburst
214A
Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Advantage Block Advantage Guard Cancel BS Juggle
32 - 49 4 24 KD - UNB - Y -

Rick's unblockable, he winds up a bit before delivering a punch. Really slow, but grants a hard knockdown, so your best shot at using it is on oki or as a knowledge check.

10,29(35) - 5 1,1(12)4,3 34 KD -21 HL - Y Y

Rick does 2 punches up close, but only one from a distance, can be used as an slow anti air. However, where it shines is for extending combos, such as doing a Hellion after Shooting Star EX to do almost half a health bar. It can also be used as a reversal.

Great super. Rick does a series of punches, before shooting a projectile. Near fullscreen, great damage, starts up instantly and it's plus. Use it, as it's one of the best supers in the entire game.
