Zangief is Top Tier in Street Fighter IV

According to this video, you can easily get through the hardest mode of Street Fighter IV by repeatedly using Zangief’s clothsline.

Ever since SFIV came out in Japan, I’ve heard experts continuously place Zangief as the highest tier of character to use. Is this video proof?

Naaaah… Zangief is tough, but try using those cheap tactics against a real fighter. Especially a tournament-level Street Fighter player that doesn’t mess around with that scrub garbage. All this video proves is that the developers need to do a better job at programming the opponent AI in the single-player mode.

  1. Gief is S-Tier. He is tough. Not because of his lariet, but because of the range of that damn spinning pile-driver.

  2. That’s what I thought… I’d still love to see some scrub watch this video, think he’s unstoppable, then take on an actual player with that trick.
