Before anything else, I've read the old thread and could make no sense of it.
How for example, can one beat Rugal with Clark? I KEEP getting whacked.
Is there a universal way? I know of the projectile bug, which I use when fighting using Iori, but what of people like Ralf, Takuma and maybe even Terry?

For Terry, anticipate when he's going to toss out his Reppuken and hyper hop forward CD to counter.
Other than that, the general gameplan of super jump CD over his head, let him whiff Genocide Cutter, combo as he comes down should work, I think. Then again, I don't play vs CPU much so I might be wrong on the specifics.
EDIT: And this should be in the 2002 forum. *click*
EDIT#2: This thread might help

I didn't read the linked thread, but the way I beat Rugal in 2002 is through cross ups.
If you cross up properly he will generally do Genocide cutter behind you, thus giving you a free hit with extra counter damage.
Well, this is on top of the typical: 'Wait until he does his B Genocide cutter and then punish'.
The most important thing IMO, is to NOT poke Rugal with 'normal' moves like Choi's close A, or try to chip damage with moves like Takuma's kicks. That will always get you Genocide Cutter'ed.

As Kula Diamond and Billy Kane, again, I stick to crossing up, not to mention he leaves himself way open when he does his Kaiser wave, he never fully charges it so you can predict when he will release.Is there a universal way?

it's easy. just invoke him to do that stupid start up genocide thing [the one before cutter], and u can counter it. 90% of the time, just jump backwards with a jump Kick and he'll start it up. then just stand there and he will attempt to follow up [hitting nothing] with that slashy downwards thing he does that uses the same slashy sprites as the genocide cutter crap. the moment he's done with that or right before he does the slashy thing downwards and makes that moaning sound, u can roll over and toss him with grabbers or combo with someone who combos. if u have a projectile user the moment he starts spazzing out with that slashy crap u can throw a projectile anytime and then jump back kick again, he'll start spazzing out again. only throw a projectile or attempt anything when he's spazzing out though, block when he's throwing repukens, coz u cant beat his kaizer wave.
seriously, 2002 rugal ai is an idiot. its 98 rugal who has at least some sort of variation.

that trick worked since '96, he's like the ultimate Goenitz/Orochi/Kriz/Rugal killing machine. pick him everytime i cant finish final boss, u dont need the trick to beat 00 Zero though considering how sucky he was, but Igniz on the other hand... meh.OT: Chang > Rugal '98 like you wouldn't believe. Rugal teleporting into the startup of Chang's b,f+P = comedy.

Meh, Shin Rugal in 2002 is not that difficult!
In fact, a way I always kick his is either when he's unleashing his reppu ken's, jumping with CD or wait till he does his destruction beads and INMEDIATELLY he finish his 3rd kick, roll behind him because pretty sure he'll unleash a B genocide cutter (in that moment you are behind him ready to pummel him to death with a nice combo)! LOL
There's another funny way to bitch him with Ramon, for example. When he goes back to throw his reppu ken's, just do the + b/d, it's 80% sure you'll grab him (you'll pass by the Reppu ken), the other 20% he'll short jump to you to grab you from behind, but, as your mtion of the dashing grab is done as soon he lands, you just grapple him with + a/c and inmediatelly dash back so he'll throw his reppu ken's again. Lots of fun!
As a side note, he's my favourite punching bag for combos, actually!

You don't need to be a combo machine to beat 2K2 Rugal.
I saw a guy beat him by doing nothing but Orochi Yashiro sweep, +P on wakeup, walk forward, C, f+A, grab (or grab DM).
Plus he dies stupidly to that crossover trick mentioned many times already. Even something simple like Terry stand C, +A will help you beat him.
