  I wanted to share what I experienced in Survival Mode for those who need help:
  
  These are the characters that are free to JUMP IN ATTACKS in Survival Mode:
  
  - Nash (almost NEVER blocks jump ins)
  - Zangief (almost ALWAYS gets hit from jump ins, especially if your character has a quick descent from their jump)
  - Birdie (same as Zangief)
  - FANG (will anti-air you more than Gief and Birdie, but most of the time gets hit)
  
  These are the characters who will go COMPLETELY INSANE on you:
  
  - Laura (SHE IS A NUISANCE. Keep distance as much as possible, try not to jump in as she will ALMOST ALWAYS anti-air you)
  - Bison (Another nuisance. Continuous attacks, however he uses unsafe block strings so you can use a reversible move to break through his pressure)
  - Mika (Not as much of a nuisance as Laura, but she can deal big damage and stun you quickly. Tends to jump a lot and not afraid to use her Nadeshiko V-Trigger)
  - Dhalsim (VERY ANNOYING, but is also very susceptible to constant offense since he doesn't have strong defensive options and a very floaty jump)
  
  These characters will continuously ANTI-AIR you when you jump in:
  
  - Chun Li (will anti-air you WITHOUT FAIL, even on earlier stages. However she is completely open to cross up attacks)
  - Bison (same as Chun Li, will anti-air the crap outta you but is completely open to cross ups)
  - Laura (THE WORST CHARACTER TO JUMP IN ON. SHE WILL DESTROY YOU ALMOST EVERY TIME YOU JUMP)
  
  These characters like to jump, and will AIR THROW you consistently:
  
  - Vega (loves to jump in on you when he is not trying to out-poke you from a distance with his claw. If you both jump at the same time, he will AIR THROW you if you don't perform an air attack immediately)
  - Nash (will also AIR THROW you, but not as often as Vega)
  
  Here are my personal tips with certain characters I used to beat Survival Hard and Extreme:
  
  - Ryu/Ken
  
  Abuse their MEDIUM SHORYUKEN for every stage, against every character. When you stun the opponent, perform one of their bread & butter combos, then continue to use MEDIUM SHORYUKEN
  
  - Rashid
  
  Abuse his EAGLE SPIKE move. Keep distance from opponent and just continue to use EAGLE SPIKE. You can also use the air attack version of EAGLE SPIKE
  
  - Chun Li
  
  Abuse her V-SKILL, then use MEDIUM KICK before landing as a jump-in attack. Whether she lands in front or as a cross-up, the CPU rarely blocks it (even Laura won't anti-air it most of the time, since the CPU doesn't consider it an actual "jump").
  
  After landing the V-SKILL + MEDIUM KICK, do "CROUCHING L PUNCH, STANDING M PUNCH, CROUCHING M KICK, L or M SPINNING BIRD KICK" as a combo.
  
  - Cammy
  
  Abuse her CANNON SPIKE (either Heavy or Medium, I used Heavy). It is similar to Ken/Ryu's SHORYUKEN, as it is an invincible special move. Learn a bread & butter combo when you stun the opponent.
  
  - Guile
  
  Abuse his V-SKILL then throw full screen SONIC BOOMS. Guile has arguably the best projectile in the game, and the CPU will have a tough time defending against it from full screen.
  
  ALWAYS KEEP YOUR CHARGE. After throwing a SONIC BOOM, immediately go back to holding DOWN & BACK, not just BACK by itself. That way, if the CPU approaches while you're throwing SONIC BOOMS, you can use FLASH KICK if they try to jump in or counter with an attack.
  
  Point Management tips:
  
  I always opted for full health.
  
  During stages 1-10, I would take either DOUBLE DOWN 1 (Opponent gets a power boost but your score is doubled) or DOUBLE DOWN 4 (Your Critical and V Gauge will not increased, but your score will be doubled). The CPU is not aggressive during stages 1-10, so that is a perfect time to get a high amount of points in the beginning.
  
  If you have full health, I would opt for ATTACK UP or DEFENSE UP.
  
  Last tip:
  
  KEEP CASUAL & RANKED MATCH REQUESTS TURNED ON, AND SET TO "ASK".
  
  I cannot tell you how many times this has saved me from completely starting over when I was getting wrecked. Just play the online match, and when you come back, the level you were on will be reset and sometimes the CPU for that level will be less aggressive.
  
  If the round is going well for you and the prompt comes up showing that you have a Casual or Ranked Match, you can choose to ignore it (which is why you set it to ask).
  
  
  Good Luck and I hope I was able to help at least a little bit!!

  To earn this, from the main menu go to challenges, then survival and select "EXTREME" difficulty option. You will pick your fighter and face 100 straight one round matches, with some random option to heal or buff your attack/defense between matches.
  
  Luckily now this trophy is much easier, as you are now able to save your progress, quit the game, back up your save files on the cloud or USB stick, and then continue. Whenever you lose a match, quit the game, download the save and try again from your last "checkpoint".
  
  There is also a continue feature now, but it seems it is only available to Champion Edition owners, and costs 800 fight money per, so I didn't use it. I'd prefer saving that for characters.
  
  There are "Battle Items" that you can use along with the perks you pick from a randomized list. I think this is also new, but I only used on the very last match, so I was 100% health and very overpowered.
  
  What you do is play a few matches, at the end of a match you press and save.
  
  I saved roughly at 20th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th, 80th, 85th, 90th, 95th and 98th matches. But this is of course entirely up to you, and your tolerance for losing progress after defeat versus tolerance for enduring the long loading/startup times every time you close the game to backup the save.
  
  As for strategy, my first recommendation would be to use whatever character you are more comfortable with, and abuse the save backups, but if you want to follow what I did, I used Guile and mostly his 1st V-Skill with slow sonic boom, ocasionally roundhouses, flash kicks and throws. No fancy combos at all. AI seems to be programmed to not jump in on a crouching Guile. See the video for an example of how my last two matches went, they are very representative of the whole run.
  
  

  
  It was relatively easy, I had to reload my save only 3 times, but every match or rather every interaction with the AI is a roll of the dice.
  
  I'll try to paint a picture.... Every time you throw a hadouken the AI will, 30% of the time, take it straight to the face, 50% block, 15% jump over and hit you once, and 5% will jump over with inhuman frame perfect precision and land a devastating combo. You get 2 or 3 bad rolls in a match and it is game over. So my advice is to save, even if you are winning easily.
