Olympic Gaming is back with yet another Ultra Street Fighter IV player spotlight. This time, they set their sights on the international stage with FA|Big Bird, an Algerian player playing out of the United Arab Emirates, and his amazing Guy.

In the video below, Big Bird goes up against some stiff competition, including internationally known players such as Ryan Hart and Evo 2013 champion RZR|Xian.

Much like Olympic Gaming’s previous spotlights, you’ll find an interview in the video description, covering topics like his training, thoughts on previous incarnations of Street Fighter IV, and future stops.

Rufus players have reason to be excited today thanks to this short clip below from Versus Fighting TV. It seems that the fighter can shut down attempted meaty attacks in Ultra Street Fighter IV without having to worry about the threat of a throw thanks to some new technology that surfaced late last night.

This glitch, which requires Rufus to perform a focus attack input followed directly by a throw input, allows him to cancel the focus attack directly into a throw if his timing is correct. To make things even sweeter, this technique can be performed with or without the use of plinking, as you’ll see in the input display of the video.

There are likely other situations where such a technique will come in handy, but for now, be careful when you go to pressure Rufus on his wake up.
