I've been playing Sonya regularly for several months, and have gotten pretty good with her.  However, I don't play against the computer too much, but when I do,
I cannot beat Goro.  I don't think I've even ever beat him one round.  Can
Sonya beat Goro?  I've never seen anyone even play Sonya against Goro (seems its
usually Scorpion or S.Z.) It seems that whoever beats Goro **always** does it
by using a pattern.  Is there a pattern for Sonya?  Can she leg grab Goro?  BTW,
I get to Goro without using the repeated jump kick unless I'm in deep doodoo or
in a particularly hard endurance round, such as Kano+Raiden.

A couple more questions...  What is the best defense/retaliation for scorpions
teleport punch?  I hate that move.  About the best I've done is block then 
throw, but that only seems to work maybe 20% of the time.  Any better ideas.

Lastly, anyone have any Sonya combos?  I can only think of a few, such as leg-
grab+projectile, or sweep+leg grab.  Also, does she have any funky fatality 
tricks like all of the other characters?

Thanks,
Ron
