Chris T has the best option selects in SF history

 

[ShinMaruku]

wasn't Chris T the dude who said the US is free because it has lives or some shit? Or was that Brentiscool?

US is free cause there's shit to do everywhere and it's not just gray buildings as far as the eye can see to promote boredom.

i'm going jetskiing in Miami over practicing this 1-frame link son!

One was the excuse guy and one was the guy that wrecked by knuckledu, right?

 

[sf2fanatic]

Lol pu$$y a$$ DeeJay player. Disconnect before I defeated him.

Yeah, that was Chris T, who is a college student, aka the guy who actually has the most free time to travel.and attend tournaments compare to guys who has full.time jobs and stuff.

Brett is cool is the guy who is salty that players who are better than him (Nuckledu) styling on him instead of shutting him up by beating him.

 

[ShinMaruku]

To be fair both would get wrecked by Du. But yes.

 

[mbpm1]

Both did get wrecked by NuckleDu

lemme run it back in his honor

 

[ShinMaruku]

Du does good work.

 

[Tripon]

Brettiscool's issue is that he stuck with Rufus when there was characters that do what Rufus does and are clearly better are in Ultra.

Character loyalty is a bitch.

I caught on to the attack behind the back to sweep pattern.

no his issue is that he's predictable

This is why I have a character stable. Also helped they were all top 8. Juri,Cammy and Ibuki the queens <3

Can you say the same with Daigo in terms of your last sentence?

 

[Tripon]

Can you say the same with Daigo in terms of your last sentence?

Evil Ryu is one of the best characters in the game? And Daigo switched off of Ryu once he was nerfed in AE to Yun, went back to Ryu, then finally decided to give in to the Hadou and play Evil Ryu.

But Kaz smoked his E Ryu. There's a time where he needed to switch

 

[mbpm1]

Character loyalty isn't why he lost though.

I mean, it's true.

The counter argument is that the weaker player knows he's weaker, so he'll take the chance to score a fluke win vs. never getting a win until he's better to win more consistently. But that's the fault of the game/system vs. the player. I'm never going to not take a gifted win in a match.

But Kaz smoked his E Ryu. There's a time where he needed to switch

It was 3-2 in grand finals at Capcom Cup.

Brettiscool's situation is different. He's playing a more flawed character that is clearly not good enough to win tournaments. I suppose I'll chalked it to that Daigo wasn't held back by Evil Ryu, while Brettiscool is held back from Rufus. I'm not saying that Brettiscool would suddenly win tournaments if he switched to say, Yun, but he would likely have a higher chance.

And I don't know if Daigo had a counterpick ready for Kazunoko. Kazunoko considers Ken, Sagat, Boxer, and Elena to be bad matchups for Yun, and I have no idea if Daigo has anyone of those.

 

[MechaX]

Dat ass-

Wait a second. Who is this?

According to something I heard from Markman or someone who knows the JP community Daigo beats Kazunoko all the time with Sagat.

He chose not to switch here bc of pride. The JP community was like, "wtf are you doing"

Ayane I believe

 

[ShinMaruku]

Correct

It has to be her, it's Shin we're talking about

I don't even play DOA and I know that now

I like how it took all of SF4 for people to realize how tier lists actually work lol

 

[CommandThrower]

NO BLONDE AYANES

Except for when...you know, there are.

Bonchan mentioned it too when he was at the Red Bull Studios streaming on Valle's channel. He said that Tokido and a few others believed Daigo would have won if he counterpicked. I could be wrong, but that's what I remember him saying.

[Anne]

The number of people going "why the hell did I stick to my non-viable character" now that the game is over. I know there's some OSing and excuses in that, but I really do hope people learned that if you wanna win, you can't do that shit. Hard MU numbers and viability cut offs exist, just I haven't noticed as much focus on that until it mattered recently.

I'd like to get to the point where somebody just says "If your character has enough bad MUs and you wanna win, switch or learn counterpicks." The future of fighting games lol

 

[ShinMaruku]

If at the end they are like that, they have to hold that L.
