[Zombegoast]

These Chun nerfs reminds of Second Impact Sean. instead of making everyone else good, they made him worse.

But yeah St.HK needs to be -4 on block and fix her B.HP hitbox.

Does anyone know what the new Daily Challenge is asking me to do? I tried to do a Special KO on the right side of Forgotten Waterfall, but I got nothing.

You just have to get the bats to fly out of the cave.

Knock the opponent over a few times to the far right of the stage and bats should fly out of the cave.

I remember back in the early OTs there was a guy who talked about how crappy Ryu was and always advocated all these OP buffs. Can't remember who it was.

People were bitching after every beta about how much they'd nerfed him. Man, imagine if he still had s.mp, c.hk link on normal hit. Or could link s.mp after b+hk.

I don't 't see it on there?

weird

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Anyone wanna play?

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

I can, as long as you don't mind playing a week old necalli across an ocean.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I can, as long as you don't mind playing a week old necalli across an ocean.

As long as the lag isn't significant, that's fine. Could you invite me? CFN = FluxWaveZ.

 

[MissDeviling]

Are you using the tip of your thumb and moving it around the dpad or are you using the ball of your thumb and rolling/rocking it to do the motions? If you're already doing the latter, then just practice more. Once you get it you'll have it forever.

Also make sure you're not taking the z-motions literally. You just have to press forward-down-downforward. When I was first learning SF the person helping me told me to press forward and then do a fireball motion. That's how I got a handle on it.

You just have to do it a lot and it will become second nature. Don't second-guess your use of a pad, this game works great with one.

Thanks, will try it this weekend if I have time!

 

[Skab]

I've decided that tonight I'm going to sit down with a note pad, watch a bunch of my replays, and take a bunch notes on what I need to work on. Then go lab a bunch of it out.

I WILL level up this weekend.

 

[Lulubop]

Damn, didn't know Du beat Tokido at that event. Throughout SF4 history we never had someone who could go toe to toe with Asian players like this. So happy.

that's the right attitude to have.

He's definitely at least top 5 or 3 in the world right now.

To be fair, KnuckleDu is still asian american tho.

 

[JayEH]

i don't see how this makes a difference.

 

[MrCarter]

He's an American Asian. His nationality is what counts.

Usually it's just one thing that's messing up your game i didn't get how much i was abusing backdash until some gaffers pointed at it now I'm watching my backdashes I've actually improved and almost hitting super gold.

 

[Ryce]

I really want to get the Ring of Destiny stage before it's taken down at the end of the month, but I can't justify dropping $10 on a single stage. I've spent so much on this game as it is. Ugh...

 

[KhalilSyncere]

i don't see how this makes a difference.

It doesn't and does at the same time.

He's an American Asian. His nationality is what counts.

Yeah, for the country of ownership, for sure. His ethnicity is still asian tho (vietnamese to be exact), nothing wrong with that, but just saying, asian cultures tend to share certain traits when it comes to being very technically sound in things of this nature. Same as having similar upbringings that plays a good part in why they're very good in things of these natures. It just is what it is.

 

[vulva]

Reminds me of when people were excitedly saying how Luffy was the first non-asian SF4 EVO champ.

 

[Marvel]

Remind me what they are? Indont use chun and was always curious what her combos are

https://youtu.be/ClycayW1VkQ

Just mute my shitty taste in music, lol. Also a couple combos got repeated by mistake.

She is stupidly fun, though I do not main her.

Try not to guage your skill level by what level you hit. Too many factors with online play. Some character easier to win with online, input delay messing with reactions, not being able to mash since an opponent is sitting right next to you in real offline play and you'll be obvious lol.

There's some fairly bad diamond players who just win a lot learning Chuns hardest to block setups. Have fairly low defense, footsie skill and average yomi

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Thanks for the matches, I'm so free to throws lol. Also dunno what to do against your guile at all.

I like the combo at the end where you use ex fireball and then do super

 

[FluxWaveZ]

GGs. Necalli's pretty crazy; I feel like he's kind of like Ken in that, a player can press a bunch of buttons and end up opening up the opponent in endless pressure.

 

[Marvel]

Thanks.

At the end of that session my thumbs were sore AF aha. She's def a character I will put a lot of time into in the future even if she gets beaten to death with the nerf stick.

Yeah, he has like 5 buttons that CC lol.

I believe he was being sarcastic.

Chun so OP she can do super with only 2 bars. Kappa

 

[FluxWaveZ]

The only character with a 4-bar Critical Gauge. 'Cause she needs it.

 

[Marvel]

I believe he was being sarcastic.

Oh shit... yeah that's no combo.

Lol my bad.

Feel so silly now, MKX is my home. I'm really new to SF

Sadly online is the only place I can judge my skills since i live in a small city lol and my friends suck my older bother is the only one who can give me some challenge since he a was long time SF player but he stopped playing since he got married few years ago.

 

[Anne]

It doesn't and does at the same time.

FWIW the reason people point out where somebody is from it's because they practiced with the people from that region, came up through that region's system, etc. What matters is where and how they learned, not the color of their skin. An American doing this well is more or less validating that people in the current American tournament scene have everything that they need to be able to compete with other regions.

 

[Dubz]

I haven't played on PC in months and now when I try and start the game it just won't start at all. Is this normal?

 

[Tripon]

Reminds me of when people were excitedly saying how Luffy was the first non-asian SF4 EVO champ.

Isn't Luffy also Vietnamese? Lol.

 

[Marvel]

I hope some of those (legit lol) combos satisfied your curiosity for Chun-stuff xD

I'm sure someone who has either mastered her enough or mains her completely can shed more and better light on the character for you, Tizoc.

 

[Whales]

ryu sucks

stubby normals, stubby everything

 

[Gr1mLock]

The way Valle downplayed ryu every time he streamed was nauseating.

 

[Zackat]

He's terrible folks. Terrible. Believe me.

Spoiler

just realized that saying things like ^ isn't funny anymore.

Spoiler

feels bad

does he complain about Rashid?

 

[petran79]

Ibuki's air kunais now have even stricter inputs than SFIV...

I like that she borrowed some bombs from Lei-Lei. Cant believe it but now compared to the other female characters, she's the least annoying.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

To be fair, KnuckleDu is still asian american tho.

He didn't come up in their scene over there though. I think that is what matters. Where you learned how to play and the scene you came from.

I consider Justin Wong an american player, for instance.

 

[Village]

weird

What is that store

 

[Gr1mLock]

He's terrible folks. Terrible. Believe me.

Surprisingly no. He was saying Rashid was much better than people though at a time when the general consensus was that he was not good.

 

[Skab]

weird

yeah street fighter doesnt even show up in the search when i search by game. wonder if its an non-us only thing or something?

 

[colinp]

Anyone know if the Red Bull outfits in Japan are PS4 only?
