Oh wow, it never came to mind that Zangief could combo his super off of his V-Reversal until it was just done to me now.

Going against this character's a real pain.

 

[Exr]

She says she skeptical of that in the article. She's wrong.

Absolutley wrong. I wonder if top players take it at times. The effect is perfect for fighting games, although using adderal to play a game is retarded unless youre a top player or playing for a lot of money I guess.

It's only when Gief is the one cornered.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Yeah, I imagine that'd be the case due to the pushback otherwise. Still, that's some pretty crazy stuff.

getting to diamond is a struggle. You can win 5 games in a row and lose one to a plat player and you're back where you started

I just reached Ultra Diamond again and I'm reminded how crazy this league is. I'll lose 100 LP to a Super Diamond (who's about at 20k), and won't get many points for wins. Which means any loss essentially sets me back a negative amount of points in a set, even if I win 2 matches.

Anyone notice any difference in loading times with PS4 Pro boost mode?

 

[Village]

Someone modded the story mode kolin costume to use normal gloves

that costume is now basically perfect

 

[Femto.]

I'm getting faster loading times with the Boost Mode switched on, once the VS screen comes up it takes about 10 - 15 seconds to load the match.

A hell of a lot longer including the black loading screen, upwards to 30-40 seconds

Recorded with my phone's timer.

 

[Spuck-uk]

There are also a lot of people who are much higher than bronze and silver starting new accounts trying to .. i guess relieve glory or something

Or trying new characters, and because the ranking system isn't character specific like it should be, they have to go through ranking again just to get matched up with someone on their level that would allow them to learn said character

They're doing it to feel better about themselves by getting easy wins on less good players.

Smurfs are scum in every game.

Mittens all the way! Same modder fixed the mittens for when she points at you in her walk back animation.

[myco666]

So SFV starts 2:00am GMT? Yeah I am just going to sleep and see if it is still on when I wake up.

 

[TheSpoiler]

Oh nevermind, I thought all the players listed were entering in SFV as well. Whoops.

 

[MCD250]

Time for the Kbrad/Wolfkrone runback.



Damn, Capcom vs SNK 2, heh. Wonder if that'll be streamed somewhere.

 

[Femto.]

I seriously am hoping krone plays either Kbrad or Jwong at some point.

Let's get this CPT started with some good ol thuggery.

I'm hoping that Punk and Flash run into each other.

 

[TheSpoiler]

Oh yeah, Flash paid off his debt because someone big in the FGC told him it was a good idea.

End of an era, I suppose.

When did that happen? Only a few days ago the person he owed it to said he didn't.

Oh, ok then!

It sounded really crazy to me that a court ordered him to do it, yet he still wasn't forced to.


Final Round schedule again for the new page:

It sounded really crazy to me that a court ordered him to do it, yet he still wasn't forced to.

According to the AMA on /r/kappa, the way it worked was that if Flash didn't pay after that court order, then Richel could go to the court and have Flash's wages garnished or something similar. But that obviously takes some additional work.

But now the question is who lent $7k to Flash so that he could pay back Richel.

 

[Gr1mLock]

I hope Kbrad finally bodies Krone.

Hope Krone wins

Tekken is live

I was just thinkin aboutthat

Krone already got his ass beat by Chris so I guess he's gotta aim a little lower for those popoffs.

This is very light compared to the old days too

Krone is such a low tier villain. I'm much more interested in seeing Flash get bodied by Punk again.

I don't know of any older drama

This and I've heard worse like the dude getting stabbed over I think I was kof 98 in china.

It will get a different kind of worse when the fgc gets super Hollywood and esports. Thats when you will illegal gambling sites advertised to children and folks hocking expensive drugs for all the players to stay awake

 

[Kashiwaba]

I just played against my first Kolin on ranking and man i barely beat her i guess not knowing the match up was really bad.

 

[Village]

Kolin is now one of my favorite SF character now

I hate vega, turns out she can parry a lot of his bullshit.

I am ok with this

 

[DunpealD]

I still want to see a runback of this money match with new balance patch.
