Street Fighter 6 Rashid Setup Guide! How To Mixup Your Opponent 

Omfg that combo at 5mins amazing

I just wanted to say thank you I’ve been having a blast with rashid and it’s hard to find good guides and I’m glad your providing good content. Keep up the great work.

Let's go! I needed this one. My Rashid is decent but I needed setups with him and stuff. Nice video 👍

Wow man been so many years I remember watchin you do every trial for sf4 characters good to see you still going

Fantastic videos man love these! You explain it so well easy to pick up

Even though I don't play Rashid, I love the way you guys are covering this character. Keep it coming!

Very good guide for new Rashid players! Thank you

Great guide bro, thanks.

Thanks for the guide!

I reached master with rashid just from his trial combos, but now I need some real setups if I'm tryna keep climbing thank you man 👌

That eagle spike combo was od

i already felt rashid was insane , i just reached 22k with him and confident to make him my 2nd character into Master Rank but i have ABSOLUTELY ZERO setups, and seeing these tells me "oh damn there is just so much more he can do". SF6 is so fucking exciting

A decent setup for closing rounds is after MP HK TC, 214HP 4K j214LK j2HP and it leaves you exactly +23 at the perfect distance to meaty 6HP overhead and link a 5 frame button. Works midscreen too and auto timed for in place and back rise. Also if you panic in a scramble MP HK TC is +42 by itself so you can safejump in corner or vs in place tech midscreen. Not crazy but good to be aware since the target combo is so common, in case you miss your cancel or just wanna throw them off cuz it looks like a drop.

The combo from the first set up took 8 bars of drive gauge, but still at 6 bars id amazing

Dude, this guide is insane! It's them most compreensible em accesible video I've ever seen about mix-ups with some SF character. My man, you are sick! Tsm for this, it will be very helpful in my struggle for the ranks * o * Also: will you be doing another Rashid's combos video now that you mastered him or the first one is still, like, optimal or functional, y'know?

Need a Chun Li guide please Vesper!

This is a hard earned subscribe. Good content.

Damn Rashid looks like a God right now. Would you have any videos how to deal with certain matchups like, Marissa, Honda, JP , and Ken Unga?

When the anti Rashid tech though?

The jumping heavy punches dont seem to hit when I try the 11:35 safejump setup. Do I have to slightly delay it? If I delay it I feel I may get clipped by the DP and if I dont, the jumping heavy punches dont land.

Me watching advanved sets ups when i can't even do the basic ones

As a non-rashid player i feel like you just gave me homework😐

Did you ever do a follow up to this with more optimal combos?

Great video, thanks! For the safejumps, where sometimes you are +43, I tried using the medium arabian cyclone instead and that made me consistently +42, at least every time I tried. EDIT: Ah, I was +41, but the safe jump still works for that I think.

K so I’m new to this game and on the first setup after doing OD Arabian cyclone I’m only +13 not 20 did they change things or am I just messing it up also when I get the punish counter with heavy eagle spike they don’t roll for another kick like yours do they just flop over

Awesome setups, thank you! During setup 3, for some reason the perfectly timed j.HP only works if they blocked the DI for me, am I doing something wrong? I think you're +66 if they blocked the DI and +67 if they got hit.

Kind of a noob street fighter question but how the hell does a safe jump work? How can you jump heavy kick and be able to hit, but despite the fact they can get hit, you can also block? Feels weird like if there's a frame they can be hit isn't there a frame they can reversal?

Hi Vesper! Great guide man! I'm learning Rashid as my second char and your guide is help me a lot. Question : In setup 1 after DI I can't hit it with F+MP at all. Was this patched?

shouldn't setup 3 works without DI as well since its also +67?

Awesome video! I'm working on practicing setup 1 right now, and I have a question and a remark! Even though you get tons of advantage frames on block or hit, you don't really get the opportunity to confirm block/hit/reversal, right? You kind of just have to hold block long enough that it would block the reversal and then start your pressure after that? In the preamble for your video, you mention that you don't really have to do manual timings, but it seems like taking advantage of this setup requires some manual timing. Aside from holding block long enough to catch a reversal but short enough to then take advatage of the plus frames, using the eagle spike to punish counter a grab seems to require a short delay. I keep counterhitting the CPU instead of punish countering the CPU, and I'm finding it actually a bit tricky to get the delay without accidentally getting grabbed. Do you happen to have any advice for getting the timing right?

Any reason I can only get a counter hit and not a punish counter when I go for the heavy eagle spike set up and they wake up throw after blocking the initial ex whirlwind?

Does that insane combo at the first setup still work?

hey vesper the timing for the throw bait od eagle spike works out in such a way as to beat fuzzy throws because of the long startup/airborne state right?

Hey Vesper, cool stuff. Whats the delay time you out in the dummy to simulate the delay tech? He blocks the OD arabian, theres a small pause and then reaches for the throw tech. Curious, will try landing it tonight. Thx!

🤯

hey vesper, with the fourth setup would you say that every option can be covered fully on reaction, particularly needing to do a perfect charge if they recover in place?

Whats good against wake ups enhanced

4:17 how are you getting a punish counter here? I am only getting counter hit.

Everything is ok in rashid only the anti air need some more invisibility

I'll be converting many more ppl to Islam bc of this tech...thx Vesper

i remember seeing setup 5 by some master player and always wondered "wait was that a counter hit? Why did it link?" Turns out it is a bug

4:50 look at damage OMG

I feel like rashid damage is plenty average especially when using a little meter. Like he can consistently do 30% with a full combo.

I think qcb PP setups are going to lose strength when good players start attempting perfect parry. Theres no risk for them trying, and if they get it even rhough rashid is still plus its sort of their turn. Its a physical hit when parried, so thry get the slowdown and 6f of invul on perfect parry. You cant meaty them as their jab will be full invul and hit you

Well, all I see from Rashid online is spam his DI, projectiles, normal throw, and some variation of either dwn MK into df LP or dwn LP, LP into, you guessed it, df LP (with df MP thrown in there occasionally). rinse, wash, repeat, mash, mash, spam, spam He’s the most boring character to fight against online right now, with the way most are using him, which is a shame because after going through his combo trials, he’s got a lot of different things he can do.

An amazing piece of tech I totally stole from Gachikun at the Singapore tournament recently is, H.Mixer in the corner, into cartwheel. Leaves you +1 at least. Certain routes can get up to +4, specifically if you can route into H.Cyclone->Roll, then H.Mixer (This also is great midscreen for meterless corner carry if you use M.Mixer, another thing I learned watching Gachikun.) You can go into meaty grab OR you can do the jump and it "crosses up" so most DP's that have a forward moving trajectory (Ryu, Ken, Guile) will miss completely, giving you a punish. Can also go low if you want, or land and go low. You can do a lot of things with it. The only downside is you have to route into H.mixer, which isn't to bad, but you lose a little bit of damage, but it is a blender. Can put them right back in, and the only real counter is meeting the jump with a more stable anti air, and it can be predictable if you rely on it. But it's been funny watching people wake up DP, only for it to miss completely. Some supers might catch you, haven't really tested it extensively, but it's a fun use for an underused, and unpredictable move.
