Not even close IMO. Sak j.fierce and j.roundhouse are the GOAT jumpins

How good is Rolento's as a raw jump in. I played a Rolento player yesterday who was blowing me up with ambiguous j. HP all day. He even landed it in the corner when it actually crossed up.

Poongko & Infiltration are playing the greatest troll set of all time.

Strange how they went from two rivals who would never be seen together to stream BFF's.

Oh yeah its super ambiguous, I thought he meant just in general.

Like Saks jump-ins I have to do deep uppercuts or I get stuffed, its ridiculous.
 
How y'all not gonna mention Dudley's j.HK?

With the nerf to Sak's j. HP, Dud's j. HK has to be the new GOAT. I have no idea what the frames are for this move, but's it's feels like DJ's knee shots in the sense that Dudley spends less time airborne when this move is active. The move is like a fucking dive kick. No wonder Dudley players are so quick to use it whenever you're in range for it. I've already given up trying to DP it because I'll either do it too late or it'll trade heavily in Dudley's favor.

6frame Ken's MP Dp does okay vs it. If I don't have time for that lol forget about it.

I hate how it knocks down if you miss an air to air as well.

Oh yea fuck that move.

I started treating Dudley as a MU where I don't mind if he jumps in on me every once in a while. Against certain characters I make sure to try and uppercut every jump but against characters like Dudley and Abel I focus all of my attention on the ground game and don't worry about jump-ins at all.

Unless they start jumping a lot.
 
Since we talked a lot about character design, I'm really not convinced by the EarthRealm team they showed in the last trailer. I really enjoyed Kotal, Ferra and Dvora but the 3 new humans + cassie looks a bit lame in my opinion. I suppose they really wanted to make the whole "clan" thing real and it's aimed to a certain public... But I prefer freaks.

Does anyone know what happened at Bums place last night?

Last night my brother texted me saying he hoped BasedMonster caught that but he's not responding right now so I don't know what happened.

So I had a thought but it seems to not be able to go anywhere. I need NA tournament results from around 2009-2010 but those seem hard to find.

Have you tried seeing if sites like Arts Hobbies will do custom orders?

You could always order a standard one and then order a replacement plexi for the top.

Just layout the stick on the right. Heck if you e-mail the dude he probably already has a lefty custom layout built
Ooh, nice. Thanks, fellas! I'm a clueless idiot when it comes to this stuff. I don't have much knowledge of stick modding or the people and places in the modding scene. I've never done any sort of modding other than installing a TE Kitty in my stick to make it work on PS3s. I'll make sure to forward this to my buddy.

Won't you need a new steel plate too, though? It's been forever since I modded my sticks, but there was a steel plate below the plexi & artwork. The plate has the same holes for joystick/buttons.

Plexi Panel replacements are 1/8" thick and are made to replace the metal panel of your fightstick. Currently these panels are available for the Madcatz TE and HORI Real Arcade Pro.

Oh, nice.

I've ordered stuff from there before and was happy - if you're remaking the deck, might as well go ahead and have him print custom artwork at the same time!

I'm with you on that. It's one of the reason I lvoe games like Darkstalkers, Killer Instinct, and Skullgirls.

Wait, he said computer? I thought he said car.

That kind of analogy reflects more on him than the subject lol

Cars can't do taxes. Also, I don't know why people are surprised by this kind of shit when it's SRK/fgc off topic fuckery. It's okay when dr sub zero does it, but man when keits does it, burn him to the ground right? Oh man, he's got a job, lets ruin that shit for him because I hate success. Typical fgc.

It is him, but it's from 2008 or earlier.

Why somebody would dig up a 7+ year-old clip now, I dunno.
Probably because he works at a known studio now and he is more well known now.

In any case, this is not a good look. Doesn't matter when he said it, I hope that it was just a really bad joke
