Get the Most Out Of Guile’s V-Trigger with This Sonic Boom Loop Tutorial

Since the release of Guile in Street Fighter V, we’ve seen dozens of players pick him up and show off his crazy combo potential thanks to his new V-Trigger, Solid Puncher, which allows him to throw Sonic Booms without needing a backwards charge stocked. This allows him to string together moves in combinations that we’ve not seen before, and it didn’t take long for a damage arms race to start, with players posting their highest damage combos for the world to see.

ChrisG brought this back to everyone’s mind when he did a Sonic Boom loop in tournament at Wednesday Night Fights, not only dealing massive damage but sealing a comeback win that looked wildly improbable before he got started. He’s done it again since, proving that it’s not only possible in the heat of a tournament match, but that it’s a tactic Guile players should definitely have in their back pockets.

The Sonic Boom loop is one of the tougher strings in SFV in terms of execution, so Brian Kasugano has stepped in with a great guide to doing the basic loop. Not only does it detail the steps that you need to take to pull it off, it also helps break down the awkward timings of some of the moves in the loop. Of course, this is only one variation and, as the top players have shown, not necessarily the most damaging one, but it’s certainly a great starting point.

If Guile’s your guy in Street Fighter V, this is a technique that is worth experimenting with.
