Getting in this range can be difficult, especially against an opponent who specifically tries to keep you out of that position, so remember to use Fei Long's excellent poke counters and Flying Kicks to help gain ground. He can throw out Rekka Kens, counter pokes with a Crouching Hard Punch, threaten a throw or several other tactics.Īlso from this spot your opponent likely won't have many moves they can hit you with which will limit their options while you'll still be very effective. From just outside this distance Fei Long has ready access to his best moves. Sweep distance is best thought of as the range that Ryu can hit you with a Crouching Hard Kick. Since Fei Long's distance game lacks, you really want to stay just outside of "Sweep" distance from your opponent in most cases. Difficult time beating some defensive characters who 'turtle' up. Has a big hit box for a character his size, so he's easy to cross up. Must be patient and smart when playing him.

Only really effective from mid-range or closer. Has a difficult time with Fireball traps still. + His throws are damaging and have good range. + Probably the best character in HD Remix at punishing mistakes. + Has a number of viable combos to deal damage with. + Takes off a nice amount of damage with most of his moves. Learning when and where to use his Special Moves and pokes take a lot of time and patience.įei Long players will have to be mindful of turtling characters and Fireball throwers, something they'll commonly run into while playing HD Remix, but once they know how to deal with these situations they'll have learned one of the strongest rush down characters in the game. Playing a great Fei Long is an art, and it's a path not many are going to take.

Instead you'll want to mix up your game and use your incredible speed to tick throw along with safe moves to chip away at the other fighter - all the while keeping them off guard by never letting them know what's coming next. While Fei Long's offensive skills are excellent, you still have to pick and choose your spots because coming full out with all of your attacks without regard to what your opponent is doing will likely set you up for easy counters. This works pretty well because you're taking away their ability to back up and get a little breathing room as you continue to pound away with tick throws, your pokes and some Rekka Kens. Many Fei players will try to push their opponent into a corner to trap them.

He got quite a few improvements, and then some nerfs, yet still he ends up being deadly character - but only in the right hands. Fei Long is a character you rarely saw people play in Super Turbo, but he's becoming a bit more common in HD Remix because he's not as hard to play as he once was, but there's still a good learning curve.
