Khaotic Shang's Shang Tsung Video Guide

If this can get a sticky please do.
This is the first video i have ever made so please dont troll me too hard.

Part 1: Basics

Part 2: Pressure and Setups

nice vid man,good job.

had no idea the ex version of GS came out 8 frames faster! nice.

got to study that frame data

I am reloading the video with better audio. I forgot when i reformatted the video to increase the decibel volume.

Good shit dude! XD

Always wanted to learn Shang Tsung.

do it, he kicks ass!! projectile nirvana, and guaranteed to earn ragequits!

Well I mean, I've played him here and there and I know some skullercoaster combos but im talking legit learn him as a Co-main or secondary. Like im really interested in the next couple videos if they're about his pressure game and his footsies.

@Khaotic_xShangx ... Hurry up!

i'm sure the videos will be great. shang has a great d4 and d3; his d1 is also top-notch. i hope @Khaotic_xShangx also discusses his 1,2,1 string...quite safe, fast, and includes a nasty overhead!! btw 'skullercoaster'?!LOL my personal favorite is upskull, jp, 2,2,1,med ground skull, far ground skull, EN ground skull, close ground skull, 4, EN ground skull, flaming skull or soul steal. 16 hits, 51%!! the final EN ground skull is actually unnecessary; it only results in 2% extra damage (use regular far ground skull instead) but it is so sexy and stylish and and boss!!

Skullercoaster indeed! B/c they ride the skulls like a rollercoaster! lmao

His combos are so fun to do. But I know the combos, I need to learn his pressure game, that's what I'm looking forward to. Like when you go into F4 GS, best times to use soul steal in pressure, etc.

i explained in this guide about 121 and 122 of there uses but i will go into a little more detail in part 2. they shouldnt be used much because the 12 hits high and can miss on certain low hitbox characters and the last hit of each string can be armored out off. also my 51% i was going to show next guide is upskull, jip, 221 mgs, exgs, walk back, uppercut, 12, f43 SS all with one bar of meter.

i got u man. I have the insomnia tournament this saturday so once i get back from houston on monday i will start working on part 2. It will cover pressure, setups, corner game, and combos. Part 3 will be about how to fight against him and a little extra stuff i do in certain situations.

Good shit man! Looking forward to seeing you here in Houston so I can face off against your Shang with Liu. =]

Looking forward to it! XD

Awesome video man. Really learnt a lot. Big up

aight yall i did part 2 but its 41 minutes so umma redo it tomorrow and make 2 20 minute videos. So this next one will be over pressure and setups and the third will be combos and corner game.

dude,i cant do that combo for shit,its fucking impossible.i think i'll stick to my 221,mgs,fgs,exgs,cgs,12 upskull.

lol...it not impossible but hard as hell to time. I can get it like 4/5 times i try it now cause i got the walk back distance and uppercut timing down pretty good. I will show it in the 3rd vid so everyone sees what it looks like. That 51% is just pure swag.

if yall have any questions yall need me to answer about the videos please feel free to ask, and i will try to answer them to the best of my ability. Also part 3 will go over corner game, punishments, and combos if i can squeeze that in.

Great guides Khaotic I hope you do more of these maybe one covering his bad MU's for players that are new to ST that would be cool.

After the 3rd part of this guide i will possibly do that. I will have to analyze his harder MUs so that i give yall the correct information.

When abouts will the 3rd part be out?? P.S these videos are epic and have really helped me out with ST, this vid is really unipue. TY!!!

Most likely by the middle of this week. I want to get it done before i go to Tekken Arena on Saturday.

Khaotic they should make you the mod for these forums I mean no disrespect to Detroit but a) you appear more active and b) you appear more active with Shang Tsung right now

Nah. If anybody else it should be woundcowboy. They have been using him longer and have been more successful with him.
