Back in those Street Fighter 2 days, this guy was the first master to teach me the importance of moving around the screen, kicking my ass in the process. LOL
Well he’s easy to beat surprisingly for me. But it’s hard to get a Perfect. Vega’s quick, and thus I have a hard time not getting hit at all. If you can achieve even one perfect round against him, I’m impressed.
@@addisonfung5009 Hah, pleas, I can perfect any fighter I want...as long as I set the difficulty low enough...and try a bunch of times...and get extremely lucky...I'm kinda awful at Street Fighter.
I remember till the day I first got introduced to street fighter Vega caught my eye and he was my very first favorite street fighter character as years when by I look at his backstory and it’s pretty sad and so by joining shadloo to exact his vengeance for his mother while being psychotic in the making I always wondered what he wanted with chun Li it was a never ending battle between those two
Vega's Rival Chun-Li: Vega? Shouldn't you be dead? Vega: Perhaps I'm a ghost. Chun-Li: I don't care if you are! Either way , your coming with me! Vega: Pushy little wench.
Am i the only one scared by Vega? He's tall, has a slasher villain mask, is fucking sadistic, and he's whooping and screeching while he's tearing you apart
+Tommy Nir I agree. Like, I'd be scared if I was faced down by Vega. A narcissistic Spanish ninja with a beautiful face hidden by a stone-cold mask, flying and dancing around with his claw... Yeah, not someone I'd like to meet personally. But damn, what a character. You *should* fear him, you know?
The same could easily be said about any character (even if your name is Dan or El Fuerte): they can all be deadly if you can play with them properly, yet Tier Lists still exist. - No reliable anti-air - Low Damage Output - Relies too much on his claw (range and damage in his attacks aren't much without it) - Trading hits with your opponent is almost always bad - Low Stun Meter - Lack of strong mixups - No good Reversal - Really hard to combo into both his Ultras He was so good in SF2, but they just had to fuck him up here for some reason.
Funkermonster Yeah, not very many people play with Vega. Personally, I've caused havoc on players ranked higher than me simply because they couldn't defend against my attacks using Vega. Most people play with Ryu, Ken, & Gouken because they're easier to use. The players that cause me the most trouble when I use vega are Blanka, Zangief, & T Hawk.
canibus19 Since when was Gouken easy to use? And I'm not very good at this game admittedly, but I thought Vega's matchups were favorable against Blanka, Zangief, *and* T.Hawk (who's supposed to be his easiest matchup). Are u not poking them with cr.lp or cr.mp to keep em away or something? Are u jumping too much (hint: Vega is *FAR* stronger on the ground)? Zangief and T.Hawk are both really only good up close and most people can just run away from them the entire fight (at least from T.Hawk) and stop them with pokes and fireballs t keep them from getting any closer. They are also the tallest characters in the game and have some of the widest hurtboxes, so they should prepare to eat a lot of crossups. Fatass.... As terrible as I am, I still don't find Vega as strong as he used to be in SF2, and they really hit him hard when putting him in SF4 (Sagat got this too). Nevertheless, even in my beginner level, I chose Vega as my 2ndary main (I Prefer Balrog) and I never play with Ryu or any shoto; most of them don't really interest me (except Sakura and Sean, but the 2nd one isn't in SF4) and I think that *too many* people play with them. The most popular characters are always gonna be the most studied after fighting with or against them for like 100 times.
Funkermonster yeah, but like you said, Vega isn't all that powerful. So 5 hits from Vega = one spinning grab from zangief. Zangief's strength is on the ground, but he also can neutralize the air attacks. same with t hawk. Blanka on the other hand can be difficult wit his quickness and wide range of attacks. But saying I haven't scored victories over all three characters, but those are the ones I have to bring an a game wit the most. Lol
canibus19 Not really, Gief is too slow to beat Vega on the ground and he's pretty damn fat and tall, so he'll basically need to jump a lot just to approach you safely; which should be predictable and easy to anti-air (despite Claw's generally poor anti-airs). To beat Gief and win consistently, you just need to be patient and play lame, keep him away the whole time and learn to utilize Claw's long range pokes. - If he uses Lariat, crouching mk or mp should stop it since his lower area is vulnerable. - Keep him away with a good crouching mp, standing mk, or some other good poke Claw has. If spaced properly, cr.hp and st.hk can also him at bay. - Stay outta the corner, where Gief can destroy you. - Watch out for Empty Jumps, lots of novice Giefs like to do it so they can get a free Ultra 1 for big damage. Since he can't walk to Claw without sacrificing health, he'll have to jump and get anti-aired at every turn. All in all, it can be infuriating; but it shouldn't be too hard to beat Gief with a Time Out Victory by chipping his health the whole time. Same with T.Hawk, too big and slow to approach on the ground and must jump (maybe use Condor Dive) to get it. Admittedly I'm not a greta player at all, but I do know that T.Hawk is not a very good character either and is arguably the worst grappler in the game. Sorry for the slow reply.
He wears the mask to protect his face from getting rearranged by someone's fist, not cause he's doesn't want to be seen. He's is pretty as fuck though. (No homo)

Thumbs up if you experienced a traumatic childhood where your hideously ugly stepfather murdered your beautiful mother, which also triggered bloodlust and a hatred for ugly people and eventually turned you into an obsessive narcissist and a sadistic masked murderer...
+Terrance Jordan You wanna hear about tragedy, huh? Watch the news. The death percentage in this country gets worse & worse & worse & worse & worse EVERY millennium, century, decade, year, month, week, day, hour and a half, half and hour, minute, second, half-second, fourth-a-second, sixth-a-second, AND eighth-a-second. Yes it's really that bad. It's NOT OK!
Chun-Li: Vega? Shouldn't you be dead? Vega: Perhaps I'm a ghost. Chun-Li: I don't care if you are. Either way, you're coming with me! Vega: Pushy little wench.
He's afraid that his face might getting bruised, but what's with the rest of his body? Of course, an armor would decrease his speed. And a second claw wouldn't be bad either.
Man, SF6 is just not gonna be the same without this guy. Capcom, please bring back Vega, not seeing him on the starting roster is VERY dissapointing :(
@jcbsjak7 They switched the names because the boxer (originally M. Bison) was a play on Myke Tyson (the M. actually meant Myke). When they ported the game to the US they changed him to prevent any lawsuits. They probably changed him to Balrog instead of just switching him with vega because his stage is in las vegas... and it would be weird to have a guy named Vega Fighting in Las Vegas... (this is speculation in my part) so Vega got his name, he got Balrog, and Balrog ended up as Vega...
@jcbsjak7 another thing to point out. Capcom's North American branch was afraid that boxer Mike Tyson would sue the company. Balrog's Japanese name was Mike Bison. You get the idea.
@PikminExpert The word vega translates to "meadow" in English. Vega is a common Spanish family name, I'm a "De la Vega" :) it translates to "from the meadow", the city "Las Vegas" translates to "the meadows".
KeatonKing Funny thing is, "Vega" really is a Spanish name. Why he is named "Balrog" in Japan is beyond me. "Dictoator (Vega/M. Bison) obviously isn't Spanish.
@enter4me1 I believe the correct term used to describe Vega's extreme love for himself would rather be phrased better as narcissist than homosexual. Who cares though, he's rich :3 Love this theme almost as much as vega loves himself... Lmao XD
Vega: Best street fighter, best looking street fighter, strongest street fighter, and most noiseiest street fighter. He also reminds me of my mom exept skinnier and male gender. RESPECT HIM!!!
Fav character but why the fuck does one of his costumes look like fucking zoro and another like he is one of the 3 musketeers. Still epic move set and it feels awesome to fly around the map and german suplex everyone.
¿Zoro or Zorro? (the two exist) if its the later, it is because Diego de la Vega was a wealthy new spain citizen, so it kinda fits. the other is because him being or an eurpoean wealthy guy i guess.

Haku from Naruto would disagree.
The lengths they go to protect their face lol
Until he gets kicked out of a window by a hot chinese girl in undies ;)
"Handsome fighters never lose battles!..."
Have you noticed how Vega screams "Yodeleï-hee-hoo" sometimes when he wins? WTF he's from Spain, not Switzerland!
Yeah maybe something in Spanish Atleast.
Capcom: What's the big deal? Both are in Europe! They talk the same...i guess...
I think he’s actually saying viva ole
He doesn't say anything in spanish, he just does the Yodeleí-hee-hoo, It would've been better if he screamed something like "Olé!" Or "Toro!"
The Spanish Ninja knows no bounds
Whenever I see Vega I think of Zarbon.
I feel you there.
Hm. That was a very Zarbon thing to say.
Lol finally someone agrees!
Well, he's got the hair style, and the whole beautiful man archetype going on.
Never put those two together but totally. Although I wonder what Vega would think of Zarbon after he transforms
Gutted he's not in SF6. He's been my main since day 1.
Same here >:(
he likely is going to be now
since he's been mentioned in world tour

His best theme
Vega a beast if you know how to play with him.
The same could easily be said about any character (even if your name is Dan or El Fuerte): they can all be deadly if you can play with them properly, yet Tier Lists still exist.
- No reliable anti-air
- Low Damage Output
- Relies too much on his claw (range and damage in his attacks aren't much without it)
- Trading hits with your opponent is almost always bad
- Low Stun Meter
- Lack of strong mixups
- No good Reversal
- Really hard to combo into both his Ultras
He was so good in SF2, but they just had to fuck him up here for some reason.

Actually, it was childhood trauma.

Once you know Vega's backstory, you might start feeling bad for him, even though he is a psychotic murderer.
His mother got killed by her ugly husband(or someone). Vega joined Shadaloo to exact his revenge. Not something you'd hear every day.

that's how far a person's vanity goes, i guess.
funny you should mention armor since one of his original designs shows him in a full suit of armor
i think that was before they decided to have him leap all over the walls and stuff. body armor would be too cumbersome for that.
XxLiveWirexX
Well yeah but his original design was that of an honorable knight...before they changed him into a narcissistic psychopath.
SMAXZO we don't know if he was honorable or not, all we know is that he was inspired by the templars designs

The most interesting man in the world: I do not usually listen to "street fighters" but when i do i listen to Vega's theme
@PikminExpert The word vega translates to "meadow" in English. Vega is a common Spanish family name, I'm a "De la Vega" :) it translates to "from the meadow", the city "Las Vegas" translates to "the meadows".
Wait, why is it the picture of Balrog and it says Vega? I could swear Vega was the main villain.
Those are the Japanese names you are referring to.
Akuma is the main villain
In the japanese version M. Bison is Vega, Vega is Balrog, and Balrog is M. Bison.
and that is why they are refered sometimes as Boxer, dictator and claw.
KeatonKing Funny thing is, "Vega" really is a Spanish name. Why he is named "Balrog" in Japan is beyond me. "Dictoator (Vega/M. Bison) obviously isn't Spanish.
How best to sum Vega up in one word?
"WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW!"
One of these days Vega is gonna have to fight Juri to see who is Chun-Li's real stalker.
So, actually, Bison is Spanish too!! :D Haven't ever met a stranger named Vega anyway...
