I don't know what that means.

I've had a crush on Cammy since I was like...6.

6? I thought you were 35 or something.

I never found the SF ladies particularly attractive (but of course they're good looking in general). Morrigan was something else in Marvel vs Capcom 1, though. The titillation was off the charts.

That turn at the character select screen awakened something within me I didn't know I had. My eyes just popped when I saw this.

Zero's "analysis' videos are all jokes. He only really understands a handful of characters.

I thought you'd agree with him since a huge negative he mentions is that her stuff is negative on block.

Also, it's interesting you say he only understands a handful of characters considering his huge success in the game. What makes you think he lacks understanding despite being easily the most dominant player in the game and has to know what to look for when playing against other characters.

It doesn't help that my first porno was a glimpse of two demon girls going at it on the spice channel. Lilith coming into the picture in VSav afterwards was great news. Personally I think GG has the best females aside from Darkstalkers.

VSav=GG>KOF>SF

Arturo started playing better in SF4 after spending a lot of time in UNIEL. Chris G started doing better in SF4 while he was at his best in MvC3. Sonic Fox plays multiple games and continues to get stronger. Tokido had his highest placement at EVO in SF4 while also placing in KOF13. Hell, look at Tokido's EVO record and he's placed in Guilty Gear, Virtua Fighter, Street Fighter, Blazblue, CvS, Tekken, SFxT etc. Someone playing all those games and being one of the most threatening fighting game players of all time must pick up things from different games.

Everyone gets something different out of playing other games and no one game is the be all and end all of how to become a better fighting game player as a whole. Just by playing other games you'll get a different perspective and approach which will build upon your own abilities. Getting all worked up over one comment just isn't worth it, especially when you know that it's something entirely subjective as it is.

Hi guys. I need a list of all of the glass cannons in SFV currently, please.

I'm trying to help someone from DotaGAF out but I also gravitate towards those sorts of characters.

I don't think there really is one. Cammy might be since she has lower health and deals burst damage but her health isn't super low and honestly her damage output doesn't seem huge to me either.

When I see that ass I almost want Darkstalkers IV by Capcom. It'd be amazing to look at if they put as much care into is as they have with SFV. I have a feeling it'd play like crap, though.

Two dimensional fighting games have so much variety that it's almost insane. I feel like everything I've experienced is coming together after the dozens of games, thousands of hours and tens of thousands of rounds. The fifteen year project will near completion with added improvement in numbered SF titles (3S and SFV). Come Skullgirls 2 I'll be the best, like no one ever was.

Your post is exactly why I got worked up. I thought it was already established simply playing fighting games helps with playing fighting games and each game offers its own personal skill set that will add to your repertoire. So I got wounded up when suddenly there's entire group of people telling me not to grind ST. Surely they should agree it doesn't matter which game you grind? But nope. And it wasn't one person at all. It was at least four different people who had zero posts prior suddenly chiming that ST is shit so do take my advice and do it MY way. So yeah, I'm gonna have a problem with it when it feels like a bunch of people came into the thread mid conversation just to tell me how I'm wrong for playing ST when we have established, again, that it shouldn't matter what competitive fighter you play so long as it's good.

I never said ST is the end be all of SF fundamentals. I have obviously gained my own assortment of fundamentals from IV.

My anger stems from the fact I have no idea why the fuck saying I'm going to grind ST is a problem from four different people in the first place. I'm literally like "who the fuck are you?"

That's what happens when you post on the gaming side. When it comes to specific things community threads will have more people who know what they are talking about in the threads they post in.

Exactly. Some of the people who don't go to community often miss this great stuff.

I was watching UltraChen's Tuesday show the other day and they were (coincidentally) echoing FindMyFarms sentiments about how ST-style footsies are very different than SFIII/SFIV footsies. James mentioned that why he wasn't ever that amazing at SFIII/IV was because he was trying to play ST-style 'buttonsy' footsies in the newer games, and his goal was to finally learn more patient whiff punish-heavy footsies in SFV. Just food for thought.

I'm not even sure if you're trolling or actually trying to prove to me how small Japan and Korea are compared to North America. LOL what



Yo I will let them have their moment but homeboys posting here need to come back to reality sooner or later. Smug series is pretty good stuff except I skip the parts where they're playing obvious new players to the game. Gootecks got double perfects on that one kid, cmon son.

"Come back to reality?" Who here is hyping them up as great players? They're just fun personalities who have been around a long time and they've given us so much entertainment by losing in silly ways over the years, it's fun to watch them win. And let's be fair they aren't bad either by any stretch.

I'm 31. SSFII came out in 1994 in the USA, so I would have been...9? Older than I thought!

See, he only mentions stuff being negative on block because he's a Sheik player. Sheik is like...the only character who has stuff that is borderline + on block. In Smash, EVERYTHING is negative on block. It's a non-point. What's important in Smash is safe spacing, which I think Bayonetta is pretty good at.

Zero's character "analyses" are generally mocked on SmashGAF because he says the same things for EVERY character, and he misses most of their tech and finer details. He just speaks about their rushdown and compares them to his main, Sheik. If they can't do what Sheik does better than Sheik, his conclusion is that you should just play Sheik.
