SFIV was good in its last years but I doubt it would come back as much as a few on social media want it to. I personally disliked the game because I didn't like the battle system, it caused bad habits in players, which is why I don't want it to come back.
Ha! I wonder why...
I was under the impression that it was invincible from frame 1 since I've been getting hit out of meaties.
I feel like that's what it actually might be, because I don't think I was really messing up the meaties during those circumstances. But, if that's the case, that sounds insane.
That's one of the things I respect about the Melee scene. They actually put in work towards keeping their game alive & well.I mean, beyond the vitriol of SFV, it's kinda what happens with fighting games in general. People promise to support a game and do fuck all unless it's sustaining itself. Even without CPT funds, a game can still live for many years after the expiration date. It just takes work, and people don't wanna put that work in all the time.

Also, apparently a lot of people are interested in playing USFIV at Canada Cup 2017:

Apparently it's frame 1 invincible with level 7 and up according to FAT, but that also doesn't' sound right since level 7 is pretty rare. Maybe it shifts his hurtbox?

I agree. Which is what makes it kinda humorous.
all those neutral jump fierces 😔Yo if it's in downtown Toronto then I will come through with my Honda for once

Real talk, TAP is bullshit. They should nerf that move. Dunno why they thought giving it +1 for each level of TAP starting at -2 was a good idea. He just skips neutral for free vs characters with a 4 frame normal once he gets past level 1.Okay, this has happened too many times to me for me to just ignore it. FAT says this about Balrog's TAP:
But then why is it that every time I go against PR Balrog's Rog specifically, it acts like it's a completely invincible DP solution? I don't get it. Is that a thing? I would Lady Mika and Balrog just passes through it like it's nothing.
Twitch time stamp of the recent set, where it happens a few times: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/123544244?t=1h15m54s
I legitimately don't know what's going on. If people don't know here, I'll have to ask the Balrog discord.
Birdie's much better in VT, but he still has a lot of fatal weaknesses. That's assuming you get into VT with life to spare considering how many characters can just touch him once and then it's frame trap city against his slow normals.I definitely feel like Birdie's better than people give him credit for too; dude's an absolute monster once he gets V-Trigger. It's amazing how much of a difference just a faster walk speed can make.
Don't see what anyone has against a move that is invincible on startup, travels half the screen, leaves the character plus on block and can take off anywhere between 15-70% of your life.
Oh, the hurtbox... huh. That might be it. I'll look into this.
Def sounds like a hurtbox thing.
Check out the TAP hit/hurtboxes in slo-mo and HD: https://youtu.be/XzdfPTjjowE?t=87
Check out Lady Mika's hitbox (RMKS2, 6HP): http://toolassisted.github.io/LOL/
Lady Mika looks to have a fairly high hitbox.
If I was going to try and pick up Mika, would I benefit from watching Youtube tutorials that were from Season 1 or would that hinder me? I can't find anything definitively Season 2 related that's thorough.
Most stuff in videos should work fine except crHP baits/links.

Alright, so I managed to recreate a reversal timing LVL 1 TAP in Training mode, and I found that I'm just crazy: I guess I'm just frequently missing my meaty timings in that 2f window against Rog. His hurtbox does shift as the move is performed, but Lady Mika worked, and everything else too. Naturally, though, he's throw invincible on frame 1; maybe hesitation concerning that was always throwing me off.
So it's kinda like Zangief's Lariat. If your meaty timing isn't really on point, you'll get blown up for it.
You sure he was doing TAP lvl 1? Not sure why he'd use that as a reversal when he can just charge it longer to make it real...
Hey man couldI'm down.

Hey man could
Can I ask you a favor
Could you host I would like to stream the affair
Village101Ok. What's your CFN?
Nah, it's a PS4 player, but it's been 8 times now lol
I've even taken two breaks inbetween. This is so weird.
Re downloaded this the other day, is it normal to have every character bar Akuma unlocked? I have only ever bought Guile and Balrog. Have them all unlocked now. Says Purchased in the store.
So uhm...I've been using this fast loading mod for the evening and I've played the same Akuma seven times in a row now. This never happened before.
Anyone else experiencing something similar?
Might've bought the season pass? Or the deluxe edition? Or you've been blessed and have been given free characters!
Angry Bird FANG on Rog's stream LMAO 😂

I'm shocked they didn't give him a halloween costume.I waited a year for a bison alt costume. But since he has no tits I'm assuming he isn't getting shit for a while so I just went ahead and bought the story mode one.
GGs. Your Balrog and Necalli were solid. Sorry about the character select thing earlier. Thought I had it set to on already.

You'd think he of all people...
Kinda building on what I was saying earlier, using TAP liberally is a legit tool in a lot of matchups. It lets him essentially skip neutral and be at worst -2. This move is great against Birdie whose 4f normal already has trouble dealing with Balrog's 3f normal.The side effect of this is that using TAP liberally is an actual, legitimate tool vs. Mika. And it's kinda silly. I wasn't even using it at clear times I should have in that match (and I was mainly focusing on using it all the time), since I just came across this rare Mika in Ranked and I wanted to experiment with it. But man, if I had actually been playing efficiently there, it would have been even worse for her.
