Huang Gai

Introduction
Huang Gai is the other grappler that focuses more on brute force rather than mixups. Huang Gai can have a harder time getting in, having to rely on more committal options, but when he does, one clean hit can mean almost certain death.

Strengths & Weaknesses

 * Simple gameplan with strong normals and advancing moves
 * Enormous damage, including one of the most damaging Ultras in the game
 * Slowest movement speed in the game
 * Combo options without MAX Mode are very limited

Super Combo
Missile Barrage (236236P)

A version fires straight ahead, C version fires at an upward angle. EX starts straight ahead, fires upward. Can land 623K after in the corner

Execution (214214P)

Fast command grab, low damage

Ultra Combo
Shinkuu Tatategoma (236236BD)

Does like 50% on its own. Comboing into it makes it one of the most damaging enders in the game.

Strategy
Your movement is pretty slow, so you'll be using your focus attack and 236C to help you get in by calling out badly placed pokes/projectiles.

Once you get in, you have a lot of options for bullying the opponent and mixing them up. Your command grab gets you a good knockdown, and you have a number of moves that grant advantage on block, so use frame traps or your basic high-low mixups to open people up. Your confirms become incredibly threatening when backed by meter, doubly so if you have an ultra stocked, which allows you to absolutely delete most characters' life bars.

Combos
Primary combo starters: [2B 2A 2C 6A], [cl.D 6A]

Bread and butter combo: [starter] 236C

MAX Mode loop: [236C 623C(1)] xN

Slightly delay 623C after 236C, as it will restand. This also gives you the right timing to use the shortcut input, 6236C~C, which will automatically cancel the first hit of 623C into 236C. This does a ton of damage, so use it whenever possible.
