« CvS2 : Tiger Raid Oddities »

Yane has just recently uploaded a video about some...interesting oddities of Sagat's Tiger Raid. The initial test showed that a Level 3 Tiger Raid hits 7 times beating out Blanka's standing fierce. However following that, it shows the Tiger Raid hitting 6 times against Blanka's standing roundhouse.

This leads into the conclusion that certain moves that have a higher hitbox and smaller lower hurtbox, will actually make one hit of the Tiger Raid miss. This is pretty important to know because Sagat's Tiger Raid intially hits low first, and if he were to miss that low hit then you can beat out Level 1/2s due to their invincibilty frames running out. Similarly, an attack that has a fat hitbox hitting low without a hurtbox nearby will beat out Level 1/2 Tiger Raids.
