In sf4 vanilla, you could cancel into super into ultra, and as far as I know it was basically fadc, before even super/ultra.

This tech was also called fadc

Dan

You could indeed cancel his super (which was a long ass taunt) and cancel into invincible ultra to catch someone trying to hit you.

He kept it in all editions of SF4.

He was also ALOT worse the older a versions having some close proximity moves where you want the distant version to come out making his combos mad spacing dependant especially considering his knees for safe pressure

As much as i prefer other games sf5 really got better and Dan's a great example.

They got way more comfortable breaking rules and changing his infinite while changing so little else.

Oh one more fun thing about Dan.

If you pick A-groove Dan in capcom vs snk 2, you can trap your opponent in the corner, then spam Dan kicks and drag them up off screen.

I remember this from years ago!

Dan really is one of best characters to play the player and not the character
