I'm pretty interested in both these characters but have never been able to use them properaly at all. Rose has got alot of really wierd pokes and normals and I can't get my head around what combos into what and what move's got the best anti-air priority ect... Same story with Gouken. He seems like a really powerful character to me. I used to get totally whooped by him online but nowerdays I don't loose to him as a Guile player since 90% of online players don't know what they're doing and spam MP fireballs and higher counter all day and it's no problem killing them but then once in a blue moon I'll run into a Rose or Gouken that totally blow me away and there's nothing I can do to beat them.
 
Does anyone here play Gouken or Rose and have any pointers or nifty combos?
 
 

EDIT: Given up on Gouken but have pretty much transitioned from Guile to Rose for most matches. I still pull out Guile for specific matchups, though. Still apreciate any Rose advice!

For Rose check out a dude named Saqs prolly the best Rose right now. I know Jared used to play Rose but gave up n went on to Chun-li but he might be able to help. 
 
And for Gouken Alex Valle has a very good Gouken so look at him.

Gunna shamelessly bump this. I've given up on Gouken mostly but have taken a big liking to Rose. She's actualy pretty great at zoning and her pokes are awesome.
 
So does anyone else play Rose at all? I'd like to get some advice from Jarad if he reads this. He seems to be the best/only Rose on this forum.

You destroyed me as rose earlier on today .... so i think your on the right tracks

i wish i could use Gouken. he seemed soo close to a shoto character but yet i could never get him down

Gouken.

Gouken's ultra is mega easy to set up .

There's a really good rose player on my friends list but I don't think he posts here and he only plays sometimes. If you want to spar with him send me a PM and I'll give you his gamertag. 
 
Also, have we even played, scooper? I honestly can't remember, whats your gamertag?

Here's a quick video I made against TurboMonkey earlier. It's really just to test my old ass camera but you can still laugh at the random Soul Throws if you like.

   I'll make it 16:9 for my next videos. I forgot to on these ones and filming a 16:10 screen in 4:3 looks wierd. "
