Perhaps my struggles with Slayer will be justified now

 

[Clawww]

Wish I knew the game enough to enjoy the patch notes. Long road ahead...

i meant cool fantasy

we have the extreme 90's "lets cram asian stuff, fantasy stuff, robots and military stuff all together at once" (which I appreciate and enjoy mind you) aesthetic (Killer Instinct, Mortal Kombat), the claymation aesthetic (clayfighters, primal rage), and the anime aesthetic (every other fighting game ever made ever in the history of earth), but the above style and tone is itching for a fighting game from it

so like the dnd fighting games? The fate stay night games could also count I guess

 

[Clawww]

I'd enjoy that as a style in a fighter. We've seen crazy movesets through so many RPG games that I'm sure you could have some cool shit going on with Paladins and Dank Elves etc. in the context of a fighter.

Fate is ultra anime, and there was a DnD fighting game?

Do you mean the beat em ups by Capcom?

Man, if they had made a fighting game instead of a scrolling beat em up...

Also, I forgot Golden Axe the Duel.

 

[Azure J]

That's fine. It fits in general with the rest of the "I have okizeme time for three attempts" nerfs.



God help us. Uh... guess I'll use f.S as a poke. Make people guess. I never buffered a raw f.S into Bridal Express anyway. And I should be far away enough from the opponent to not get hit after I pull out a grenade.

The only thing sad about this is that despite the dominance at Arc Revo Faust is still pretty much the same character. :/

I'm already unlearning my old blockstrings and adding a lot more 2S into the mix. I was doing a lot of 5K>cS>Pine Berry (low toss) and 5K>cS>2S into Pine Berry (load)/Shotgun stance, but man will it suck to lose 5S>2HS slide into sweep/dust/close range shotgun stuff. Ah well, eager to play the new stuff and make the best of it.

Yeah, I know about that one. I suppose it's not really that anime. So more like this. Another one of these. One that isn't an arcade/JPSN exclusive with bad online.

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

You just joined the hype train? Welcome.

Yeah, I don't have a Wii U and Melee has no online so I'm relegated to just watching. But that's what I do with SF and Marvel as well so it's still fun.

 

[oneida]

is golden axe the duel a bad game?

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

The changes to Ky's stun edges sound great.

 

[Kadey]

Besides the loading times, I thought the Golden Axe the duel was good. Even if you didn't like the game play the music was really good.

@levelupseries : It's Official! SoCal Regionals 2015 is on May 1 - 3 in Orange County! More details on the way soon! #SCR2015

[direct_quote]

Yea, I mean obviously I don't know how the metagame will turn out in the next couple of years but being a veteran I don't see how the game won't devolve into a mundane camp-fest for viewers.

I think the game is kind of fun and I love the graphics and cast but the gameplay is bad imo from a competitive perspective.

Yah the multiple air dodges is pretty disheartening.. With how defensive the game is should have kept it to one...

I played the hell out of Mace and found a few infinites with Xiao Long. All the talk about fantasy asthetic made me think of battle fantasia.

I'm still gonna' call the NAACP on you.

 

[Rhapsody]

Multiple air dodges isn't really a problem in Smash 4 at all. People in the air still are on the ropes.

 

[BakedYams]

repeat from last week but wtf. Seriously why is marvel on my spooky?

You must burn for your crimes Vulva.

That's great to hear.

Just wait for them to airdodge and you get a free uair. Very simple if you still have your double jump.

He was playing out of his mind in that set. Good stuff.

Crazy joe made it interesting

SCR confirmed for May 1st-3rd, somewhere in Orange County.

Oh look, an event I can actually get out to. :3

Awesome trailer for Cannes Winter Clash. Hope the event turns out well

Not that the average person can go to Japan easily, but it's a shame they're on the same weekend.

 

[Shouta]

Having all of the West Coast tourneys within the span of a month is such a mess, lol.

 

[Passive Assassin]

who going to ncr?!

It's something that you can't really consider in terms of planning (and I think you have to be kind of nuts to travel to Japan during Golden Week), but it still sucks. I know that Brett's plans have already been bodied due to this (since he's running Gundam EXVS at SCR). I think it's more wack that all of the WC events are in the span of a month, if anything. Anyone going to NCR, NWM and SCR is going to go out of their damn minds.

 

[N4Us]

I was planning on that but yeah, it's coming off a bit unlikely at the moment. Especially with NWM and SCR being a week apart.

 

[Rhapsody]

I'm pretty curious on where the venue for SCR's going to be. The last two times were at UCI. Irvine is in Orange County, but who knows if it's still going to be there. I can't remember how quickly they confirmed the venue for the last two times.

Anyways, I'm going to try and make it. I've been to the last 3 SCRs or so, and it's close by.

 

[theprodigy]

wait so when's NCR and NWM?

 

[Shouta]

NCR is the weekend of April 3-5, NWM is April 24-26th. SCR is the following week, 5/1-5/3

Texas Showdown is the week after SCR, I believe.

 

[Rentahamster]

That's a lot of stuff in a short period of time.

Al Sharpton is my homie.

 

[K.Sabot]

Did the long, boring process of ripping my Melee disc onto my PC.

We dolphin now. Might get that 20XX mod.

Damn, that's a lot.

Hoping I can make it out to SCR, even if I only enter one or two games.

Would like to see how the Smash 4 SoCal competition stacks up too

I need to do this. Wouldn't it be possible to just download an ISO since I own a copy of the game? Or is that somehow illegal even though I own a copy of the game?

LOL! That better not stay. Is there a Dustloop thread for all the updates?

Why change this?

Ogawa “Zato is ass, he is done“

Well, nerfing his defining trait in four different ways is probably not a good idea.

Faust still dominant in 1.1, Zato Millia Ram def not on the top of throne anymore but shouldn’t be too bad. Axl and Ky step in high-low

Interesting to see if the changes stick or not.

 

[Anne]

Tbh the salt today has been incredible. People can't seem to handle changes.

 

[4r5]

Why change this?

Maybe Ogawa discovered an unblockable setup with small drills??
