Jumping in with any of the kick buttons (mainly LK) can set up some good SPD ticks. Forward jumping HP is usually your go to jump in, but jumping MP can be used if you need something quicker with a little more height. You can tick into SPD from pretty much all of Gief's crouching normals, but you'll want to stick to the light and medium punches and kicks most of the time (you have to be very close to use HP/HK as a tick). Your close standing LP isn't as good as the ST version of Gief but it still comes out fast and has a hitbox above you, which can save you in a lot of tight spots. Crouching LP is very easy to chain cancel and link into couching HK sweep or standing LK. You can ether negative edge SPD out of a standing LK tick or link it into a crouching HK for an easy mixup. Important Normals: Your far standing LK is pretty important. Used correctly as a safe meaty outside of their throw range, you can beat out every single move in the game besides a blanka ball (1st frame startup so he can't be safe jumped or safe meatied) or a competing SPD from a mirror match Gief. Most people will use ether standing far LK or crouching LP for their ticks into SPD because both of these moves have no recovery. Mastered correctly, there is absolutely no way out of an SPD loop in the corner using this method against most of the cast. When you do this correctly, you ether get the SPD or you just sit there crouching while your opponent does an invincible special move that you are now in position to punish. What this means is holding down a punch button, doing a tick throw SPD out of a normal or the end of a lariat, and then releasing the button as your SPD throw instead of tapping it, preferably ending in a crouching position. SPD: In the CPS1 games (WW, CE, and HF) Gief's SPD does not have a recovery animation, which means it can be used and abused as a consequence-free negative edge/button up throw (like T-Hawk in Super Turbo).
