Well, The Qcb + C must be used after every attack; the less time you press the C button the more advantage you got.

For example you can do cls C; df + B; Qcb + C; walk; cr C; df + B; Qcb, Hcf + D.

That's like 80% of once close standing and with one bar.

on strategies you MUST keep in mind that Ramon's normal DMs do EXCESIVE damage, ramon is mainly a "I read you" character, you must learn to push over the enemy.

His Hcf + C throw has way more range than regular sepecial throws; for example you can do *blocked* cls C; df + B *blocked* and when the kick ends input the special thorw; if the enemy is not blocking they'll be dragged in.

Your main presure moves are the far D; the cr D and de cr C.... You could sort up a far C because it has some priority...
The Hcf + D is quick and will mostly eat up low attacks; in some cases it can score a "critical hir" and do twice damage (one hit the kick; one hit the knock down)

The neutral jp C has good speed but you must anticipate it; the jp CD is the same; those could be your main anti air moves if you do read the enemy.

Remember that the Qcb, Hcf + B/D DM can eat up attacks (usually only one) when ramon is dissing the enemy. Different buttons mean different recoveries.

For example with one button you can do *blocked* Qcb, Hcf + kick DM *blocked* and then input the DM throw; if the enemy doesn't react quickly they will eat the throw... that is if they don't special throw you first.
In the same style you can do Qcb, Hcf + the other kick and when blocked the enemy will be pushed far and you have a little edge where you can input other DM.

remember to cancel EVERY NORMAL attack with the Qcb + C (of course release C as quickly as possible) to have the edge always. This can make Ramon a bothersome enemy...

Of course, almost everything comes with developing an "instinct" to play with ramon. That can't be teached.

Ramon was one of my bests in the good old days.

Play him in '02, but not in '00 !
IMO he's missing too much moves in '00.
