Well, I'm only playing AE atm, and I'm really trying to learn the game now more than ever, so until two months ago I only played Evil Ryu, but now I can play like 7 characters in a ok level, but the bad ryu guy is still my main (switching to Yang in ultra tho)

Honestly probably 1 (Dhalsim). I'm in the process of learning Sagat
So, yesterday I was asking here where did Arturo gets his frame data info, I didn't get an answer, so I searched in Google Play for an app, and there's this one, which is godlike!
But, since Ultra is right on the corner, I didn't bought it, instead I sent an email to the publisher asking if he would update the apk once Ultra comes out or if he would release a completely new app.
He answered me right away, and, for my surprise, he told me that he will not only not update the app, he will take down all his sfiv apps from Google Play, because he hates the changes Capcom did on Ultra! Hates that, with delayed wake-up and srk fadc not being safe anymore, the game wile a lot more footsie heavy, and....he doesn't like that it looks like.
Well, if he not likes the game anymore, I respect him not updating the app and not caring about it anymore, but.....the salt man! THE SALT!

I can play at a fairly high level with some of the cast, the ones I cant play at a high level I'm just totally ass with (Adon
fuck Adon
FUCK sagat.
FUCK Blanka and everybody who mains him
you already know what it is
Also is there a Gaffer that has the gamer tag of RoknRolluh? Or something, I could swear there was.. if there is then I need that runback
I really hope Elena ends up being good. I'm obligated by NegroLaw To use and abuse every black character in the fighting games I play whether they're ass or not. (S/O to Tiger Jackson). After sticking with FreeJay for so long, I really hope they make Elena good.
If I don't feel I can get out of pools or deep in a smaller bracket with a character, I don't play that character proficiently. I really tend to focus on a solo character, in rare cases I get to 2. Too many people switch around and try to learn counterpicks, and they just make their game weaker.

Santouka is the bomb! Probably because they are a real deal japanese chain. When I was in Tokyo my wife and I asked this guy what the best ramen place was and he said Santouka.
Sounds like a nice guy!
The fact that he's selling an app with data you can find anywhere else for free on the Internet is just icing on the cake... <3
Btw, Horseress, if you are looking for AE 2012 frame data infos, you can find them here: http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Super_Street_Fighter_IV_AE
If depends on the character (some characters need more counterpicking)- you shouldn't spread yourself too thin- I think 2 chars is good, provided they cover each other's worst matchups.
Playing slower chars like I tend to do these days, those bad matchups are so frustrating- it's the only time I ever curse involuntarily.
In Smash and BB, I sometimes find myself using at least 2 characters in a tourney. The 2nd one is usually for counterpicking purposes if I really need to. I'd say I'm proficient with more, but I don't cycle through all of them in a single day.
When I get back into SF4, I plan on doing the same.

hmm, nice, it's updated now! Last time I saw it was still with AE framedata, thanks dude
In Super Turbo, Claw for sure. I can pull out a Guile if need be, but it's been a while since I used him (although I played him for the better part of five years in SF2).
In SF4, probably just Ryu and Sagat.
Online Flowchart Vortex scrub exposed? lol
That's just silly.
What's also going to be useful is if the frame data from the previous versions is available. Even though edition select won't be an official part of most tournaments, I see it going that way in the future, and it's still useful for situations where edition select is allowed.
He sounds like a fraud.

Depends on the game; in general, if there's Ryu/Gief, they're automatic picks.
3s/ST, most of the cast. For Ultra, I'll probably end up using Hugo along with the above mentioned.
VF, mostly a Wolf/Lai player.
Do we have all this info somewhere? If so, I can make an app for Android with it, a very simple one, just to have that utility around
charging per character, having micro transactions and with hidden dlc, of course Kappa
Someone could probably make bank on a free app that is ad supported...
Yeah, some games are just counterpick heavy and some characters are just rough -_- I still see too many people these days thinking they have their characters down and ready for picks, then get stomped. A few people who were having MU issues here recently started learning counterpick characters, and it turned out way better for them to just learn the MUs with their mains. If you have a very good fundamental base and understand a game super well go for it, it's just hard to pull off. I'm tired of seeing mid level players shooting themselves in the foot ;_;
Pretty sure I saw a "frame data calculator" at some point to show people punish options. I didn't see why it was needed since most people know 3rd grade math.

ST: Dee-Jay, Vega - I might not beat top players in sets but I'm good enough to take matches off of them without it being a fluke
HDR: Cammy - Most of the community saw me as a top 5 XBL Cammy way back
3S: Yang - I suck. I know how to use his pokes but I can't parry yet.
AE: Dee-Jay, Rose - I have footsies and AA'ing but have no hit-confirms, mixups, nor do I use FADC effectively. I'm mediocre.
SFxT: Rolento, Law - I'm capable of beating good players but I lose more than I win
I'd probably be much better at AE if long-range poking and fireballs were more effective. I excel at turtle-style gameplay, not so much rushing in with focus and hit-confirming whatever.

SSF4AE Bits has this feature. I think its IOS only though.
Pretty much. If you're familiar with your character, it's not difficult to figure out links or punishes.

Started playing VF5 FS again after a long while and spent some time practicing Eileen's combo strings and stuff. Until now I didn't utilize many of her different cancels and stances as I stuck mostly to what was presented in the command training (mainly forward P+K+G and 236 P). Can't believe I didn't realize this sooner as I felt like a whole bunch of opportunities opened up for me just now. Goddammit, I love this game so much.
Perhaps something like a match-up chart for each character, like entering Abel's page and then going to match-ups, then choosing a character and seeing what moves of this character Abel can punish, and with what move. Something like that would be cool
A character punish chart would be neat. It'd be a pain to mess with though because there's more to punishes than just whether something is negative. You'd have to have somebody fill it in for every character and blegh.
It's not the actual calculation that's hard, it's going through each possibility for an arbitrary frame data sheet and also for interactions between them.
Let's say I was playing Ultra and wanted to know frame advantage options with Vanilla Sagat vs AE Yang. Sure, I could do the math easily, but it'd be extremely tedious and time consuming when I could have a computer do it for me.
Only problem is that it doesn't take into account distance. It's only based on startup and the frame disadvantages of the moves.
This, plus oddball situations like meaties, weird hitbox interactions, other mechanics like pushblocking (god forbid a game has something like Tardy Cancels), etc.
Saw this on twitter laughed for twenty minutes.
That Jigglypuff rushdown.
It's helpful in giving you a basis for things to experiment with - we all have habits, and this is something to refine your play so that you try to learn new ones.

I can "play" Sim, Bison, Balrog, Yang, and Guile at a reasonable level (i know what the buttons do, have a basic combo/punish/gameplan)
I wish I knew how to play; Abel, Makoto, Gief, Elf, Dudley.
I've been playing Gief since vanilla and I can tell you that no one has fun when gief is on the screen. Not the person using him and not the person playing against him. The matchups are boring.

ST/HDR: Balrog because I'm a scumbag. Deejay because maracas.
Tekken: Lei because I'm a scumbag. King because growls.
VF: Brad because he's a scumbag.
