Yang Overview - Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike [4K]

Of the two twins, Yang takes a more careful, fundamentals focused approach than party boy Yun. His defining move is the Tourou Zan, a versatile rekka series that can be used to poke, pressure and end combos. Divekicks, a command grab and dash round off his versatile kit.

I'm loving these 3rd Strike character videos. The game has needed this for a long time. Hopefully people who haven't yet will be motivated to pick it up.

As a yang main- great vid! Yang is a character that seems simple on the surface, but can be pretty tricky to get right. For new players- close mp is a great punish tool, try to start rekkas with the lp version and then do the hp versions after confirming that it has hit, and sa2 gives you the most ex rekkas.

A big thing about Yang is he’s one of the few characters that gets dizzies incredibly consistently. Some characters like ken don’t get them that often and even the top 2 barely get them. Meaning Yang tends to win very fast if he gets 2 ex rekkas, which is why it’s the best ex in the game. It’s also why he tends to seem better than he really is at a glance because he’s capable of getting tons of damage off a couple of openings.

This series finally pushed me over the edge into the wonderful pit that is Third Strike

[Klookko]

Yang was always the cooler brother to me. Loved him in 3S and USFIV

I just wanted to say how much I really appreciate this channel. For the fighting game fan, TBS releases absolutely fantastic content.

Third Strike is a game I've wanted to play but found intimidating for a long time - a general breakdown of the games mechanics and basics in getting started would go so well with these amazing character breakdowns

You are right from A to Z. Back there, I wasn't such an analytical player ( 10~11 y.o) so I didn't Chun and Yun were the strongest characters … but Ken and Yang were my usual picks for two very entertainment-centered reasons: EASY TO USE & RUSHDOWN PLAYSTYLE IS HYPE. Thank you and collaborators for such a project !!!

[jackwilde]

GODDD every time I see one of these in my feed it’s an immediate watch. TBS, thank you so much. Your content remains a cut above the rest

Yang is my favorite Character by far. Glad to partake in tournaments for jazzy circuit and still learning to this day. here in NYC

[Sune]

Watching these character overviews helps me appreciate 3rd Strike even more. It was my first Street Fighter when I was younger (the version on PS2), but it was a non-competitive, single-player experience for me since I could only fight the CPU. Haven't played it since...
Great work all around!

My favorite 3rd strike character. Just like his brother, he got style. Great video.

[conkersuprfan]

glad I waited for this, had no idea some of his play style and moves as I just recently started playing 3S

[Nightmaroid]

Loving this series! Personally I've been playing 3rd Strike since CPS3 emulator came around in the late 00's, but still this guide and videos are amazing for players of all levels.

[ZEBASS]

Great overview! I only missed the mention of Yang's INSANE stun output. Good Yang will stun their oponents on almost every match, and that is something to be terrified about, because in practical terms, rounds are shorter vs him.

[WhyHandlesIMeanFroggchamp]

1:00 now I want a fighting game to have a tech or a mechanic called “Splocking”

[Aware_Wolf_X]

I love his SA1, but EX slashes are too good to ignore.

[CDages]

While yes, Yang can play many his matches in scenarios where Super art use can be largely ignored or not needed, SA2 (Tenshin Senkyuutai?) is the Super Art of choice as it works in harmony with his Target Combo (MP>HP>Back HP), is a decent (tho risky) reversal due to its 1frame startup, and its flexible 2 stock build which grants him alot of meter to burn thru for his offense. Great videos. Been enjoying them every morning before heading to work.

[ThaPlaya]

These videos are nice. Looking forward to hopefully Sean.

[massivemendoza]

These remind me of champion spotlights for LoL. Never seen this format before for fighting games, and I'm shocked no one has done this before. Great job on this series.

[SpectralSound.]

One of my fav characters.hope we will see him more matured in sf6.did you know his hair style is inspired by Trowa Barton from gundam wing? Nice stuff
