Memory sticks are cheap as borshch. I just bought one for sole purpose of moving SCV pics and vids from ps3.
Uh what if I don't have a phat anymore.
a USB memory stick, I picked an 8GB one up for like 5 bux just for putting stuff on and taking stuff off my ps3

Yup, this is what I'm talking about.
Lol, I think I have one lying around here somewhere when I think about it. . . If not I'll pick one up for the cheap @ work tomorrow.

Anyone with the guide, what are Xiba's safest moves? I want to know if what I'm doing is actually a good idea or if it's just lag abuse :|

Lag in V is incomparably smaller then IV so I can actually block mid-low-mid on reaction. So I think you're doing right.

Well, I'm talking more about stuff that I should be getting punished for doing, but I'm not, rather than mixups that are impossible to react to online.
Like, doing his K follow up to AA or 6B, or stuff like that. I'm just interested in knowing if they're bad habits that I should be dropping, like ending a blockstring with a Hayate with Makoto in SFIV for example.
For some reference of how I play just watch go to about 18minutes here.
Well, what I do know I need to stop doing is trying to GI with B+K, the GI activates pretty late and it has costed me plenty of matches -__-

ZWEI freaking sucks balls...-17 on his 3A..Fuck that shit...
I agree with the discussion on the other page about someone switching to a different character after bodying you free. It just makes it harder to learn too if they switch to characters they still know how to play too. Some people can body you free with gimmicks and you just need a few games to get adjusted.
Nothing made me feel shittier though than playing someone in my earlier days of SF4 where they just kept doing random select and completely destroying me.

I need few matches to adjust. I almost always lose first 2-3 matches. Yesterday guy sends me invite, I get bodied 3-0 with perfect even and then go on 10+ win streak. Dude must've been pissed.
I am pretty sure that 6b and/or aa is considered safe.
Anyone have any tips in regards to dealing with Astaroth players, I find it hard sometimes to get close and when I do a number of his attacks have big push back upon blocking. Some players are pretty good at keeping me on my toes with their high & low mind games. Whilst I feel Natsu does too much damage & Nightmare is just a little too good all around it's Astaroth who causes me the most trouble. Xiba is the character that I currently use.

That dude was me and I have no problems with losing since I'm still adjusting to SCV. I'm currently looking for a new main since Amy didn't make it into SCV and everyone that did make it in just doesn't feel the same way that they did in SCIV.
Sure she did! Just her move set didn't.

That's the most important part!
Anyway, I want to start playing as Viola but I'm just not ready for her yet. ;p

hey! is there anyone that's bad and wants to "learn" or some middle skiller player
I was pretty good at most Soul Calibur myself, but with the changes they introduced in this one and the input lag this has i see myself too often and as sandbag and i want to learn properly too. (Just got it yesterday)
Send me an mp and i'll give my psn id, i won't be able to play until later today though

I'm going coo coo!
When I thought I finally got rid of network error shitfeast, today I got my net speed up six times, and again network errors begun, long searching and the bars went from 4 to 3 with Germany.
The fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck?!
If this shit won't work tomorrow, I'm giving up. This got way too tiresome.
Oh and the game started finding matches with Americans instead of Europeans.
Coo coo!

Ivy players will always complain about how much better their character used to be. It's one of the constants of the series.

Saw this poster on Iplaywinner. A beginner's guide to Mitsu by Fahros. Some really useful info here:

The Ivy whiners will not be defeated so easily. They are the powerful and persistent whiners in the entire community.
After watching a bunch of SCV streams now I have to say that if this game doesn't take off competitively in the US it's not the game's or the SC community's fault.
It has flash, hype, 2d elements, good commentators and streams (which T6 did NOT have for a long time) e.t.c. It deserves to do well.
