How am I supposed to react to their stuff? I don't get it. I play Rufus. What do I do against wheel kick? What do I do against weird skinny fireballs? Vega's wall whatever?

Block / jump dive kick over them / focus dash / Galatic Tornado

Block, focus, jump back fierce punch, EX snake strike, Big Bang Typhoon

Don't always need to react if you can anticipate. Blanka's probably going to do rolls on wakeup so bait em out, I think you can punish a blocked roll with c.hp maybe or Big Bang Typhoon. Backdash or EX Messiah Kick works good against El Fuerte if he's pummling you on the ground, U2 works good here too. Have a look at some YouTube vids, there Rufus vids for every matchup out there for you to find.     PS. This should be in begginner thread although I don't blame you for creating a topic. "

Can I punish Juri's divekick? It's so weird, atleast Rufus' divekick looks like it might make sense, but Juri floats in the air for a good few seconds, wtf?
 
Also, WHAT? I CAN PUNISH JURI'S BLOCKED WHEEL KICK?!?!?! I tried this but usually they just follow up with another wheel kick and I get hit.

I've been playing a lot of SSFIV lately, and I'm doing all right, winning some online matches, I let my thumbs do the work for me. I don't understand advanced street fighter jargon at all. It'd be great if someone made a guide, like a dictionary describing what the fuck a focus dash is or what it means to cancel into a super (or whatever). "

I feel like my IQ went down a little.

Ha, so are the majority of the advanced Street Fighter communityfuckin' dense? Who's depending on Giantbomb for everything? Lol, tell me, what do I depend on Giantbomb for? I want to know what you consider everything! Sorry to hear about your infected dick. "

For Juri 
- dive kick --> block then poke and punish 
- short kick pinwheel --> block 
- medium, high and EX pinwheel --> block then punish 
- skinny fireballs --> block the low one, counter the mid one if you have a projectile or block if you don't have one. but basically when you see juri set her fireball, don't jump coz it's most likely a high fireball. if you're a character like dudley or makoto, when you sense juri's about to set the fireball use the quick long range attacks like dudley's machine gun blow or makoto's hayate  (preferably the EX ones).
 
For Vega 
- wall dive --> absorb hit with focus attack then release the focus attack to deal damage and stun vega or focus attack then dash out 
 
For Fuerte 
- the annoying running then attacking moves --> if you have a quick anti-air, use that.  if not, focus attack then dash out. 
 
And since you use Rufus, be careful with rushing Juri since her EX pinwheel can pretty much mess you up so always be aware of your opponent's EX meter.  Against Vega and Fuerte, just rush them, Rufus is a rush character with an arsenal of powerful moves :)  Hope this helps!

Vega and Blanka are my Kryptonite, no matter what character I'm using. Especially when I'm playing a character that can't punish Blanka Balls I just throw a fit. But I guess that is my fault for playing that character and not picking a shoto/counter.

Problem unless I play against a character a lot online then I don't know how to fight against them properly.
 
I have a better chance if I've used the character which is why I don't have a problem with El Fuerte as Guile.

I usually annoy Blanka players as much as I can because I hate Blanka. (I play as Dhalsim) "

If you see Fuerte picked, yank your ethernet cord. If they proceed to send hate mail, you just won.

You have my bow. "

pretty funny, the other day I went blanka since i lose alot anyways and won 4 rounds straight pretty much just doing HP Ball, spam electricity and throw. But then I ran into people that actually knew how to punish, so I guess I just got lucky. It was fun using blanka for those few rounds (landing ultra 1 made me laugh everytime), but I just CANNOT do down-up charge moves reliably, and i haven't come up with a reliable way of getting out the right version of mash moves on a regular ps3 controller.

Take it to the beginner thread!
