Zangief’s Cyclone Lariat V-trigger is fairly versatile, and an important option for the Russian wrestler. Following up on their V-trigger overview video for the Red Cyclone, FGC Academy showcases their “Russian Sky Tech”: useful setups that begin by using only half of Zangief’s activated V-trigger bar, and following up on the Lariat’s knockdown to open up potential damage opportunities greater than simply unloading the full Lariat into the opponent. The video covers variations for quick-rise and back-recovery as well.
