Any Jack players in here?Too bad DLC chars won't be available at the Capcom tournament in NYC this weekend.
Have him as my anchor.
you can hit a launcher, hit lp uppercur into his hundred handslap and tag him out again for free.
Ifyou got three bars you can do crazy thing like:
jump HK, cl. lp, ex- HHS, lp uppercut into super for around 700 damage

I actually put launch->HHS tag cancel to good use with Dhalsim coming in and canceling his run from full screen with a lp fireball, then I can go for teleport mixup on opponent's wake up!
Using Dhalsim on point and Jack on anchor. Main team is Hugo as anchor, but trying to learn Jack!
Jack is just fun to play, but I'm worried if people get to know him.
But for now they are always surprised when I hit them with a seismo or mix it up with his shoulder tackle. And one bad jump-in and they're toast.
The most meterless damage I can get from him after a launcher is cl. HP XXX HK shouldertackle.
And if your partners launcher makes the first HP too hard, you can go for lk, mp, mp, mp, hp

Actually I think st.lp st.lp c.mp xx tackle does more damage than just HP xx tackle

That would depend on the damage scaling

Hello guys....
Is this THE SFxT thread or is there a subforum somewhere around here?
Is this THE SFxT thread or is there a subforum somewhere around here?
This is it; expect nothing but hate for this game everywhere else FGC related here.
So uh, does Capcom have any further things in the pipeline to try an reignite interest in the game? Not sure if the patch they were talking about has already taken place.
Getting the game in September in that 25th anniversary collection and i'm just hoping that the game isn't completely dead by then as it's being dropped by a lot of tournaments.

nice to see new people are still picking up the game. online is not dead by any means, last i checked.
i'm still not picking up the dlc though. are people still sticking with the new charas? or did they go back to their old ones? i don't think i can give up king, but after seeing combofiend at revelations i'm contemplating marduk. none of the new characters really interest me over either king or marduk.

I really like Jack-X, Blanka, Bryan, Dudley, Elena and Alisa.
Luckily the online community is still big and diverse.
I never have to wait to find opponents online, but I'm afraid that's going to change.
Did I ask you what your XBL GT and/or PSN tag is? Let's play sometime since nobody else seems be!
It will be interesting to see how this game is affected by TTT2 next month. And even though it will be a small increase, there still will be new people playing the PS3 SFxTK once the Vita version is released...

Desk's Lars combo video is very informative, that last combo would've been so sweet if the game didn't have such a sissy-ass damage scaling.

Here's a tierlist I made, sadly it doesn't include the DLC characters:
http://www.mmcafe.com/tiermaker/sfx...1Top Tier-x110-d2Low tier-x210-d3-x310-d4-x47
http://www.mmcafe.com/tiermaker/sfx...1Top Tier-x110-d2Low tier-x210-d3-x310-d4-x47
DLC grades:
A:
Lars: Combomachine that falls into the just below Kaz tier. So the Heihachi's and Jin's of this game.
Lei: I feel he can be become slighty OP because he has too many options, a real damaging super and I wonder if they balanced out all his moves. But he is so difficult to master.
B+:
Blanka: As in SF4 he has a lot of good and bad match-ups. Thing that hurts him the most is his reduced throw-range, slower forward hop.
But he's still an awesomefootsie character with some good pokes, a great upball and maybe the best airnormals in the game
Alisa: Love her, a better version of Gouken. Slow normals, great keep away game and when she's in destructo-form you'd better NEVER jump in on her.
Sakura: Great assist character. Perfect for tag set-ups and she's still quite the damage queen herself. Lack of health (900 I believe) makes her a lesser option than Ken though.
Jack-X: One of my favourite characters ever in a 2D fighting game. A giant zoner, you want them to be far away from you and you can do your damage from the other side of the screen. Where you expect him to be command-grab based.
You're screwed though when Ryu/Kaz/Rolento/etc is right beside you.
Bryan: Good mobility with his forward dash, Great damaging combo's, slow slow normals. Difficult but rewarding character.
Guy: As boring as a character as he is average
B
Dudley:Great rushdown character, but he lacks a cross-up and range on his normals.
Christie: No idea where to place her, she just feels weird to me with her "floaty" normals.
So I'm just putting her somewhere. So could turn out to be SS-god-tier or something
Cody: He has no safe special moves, so prepared to get punished after a bad read.
C
Elena: She has nothing going for her except a weird jump-arc. Weakest of the bunch sadly

nice, thanks. i love posts like this.
seems like everything could change *IF* capcom puts out the rebalance patch, there's some hope for Elena.

i want to disagree, but then again, this game gets practically no stream time that it's hard for me to make one of my own. i do feel that the game has a lot of undiscovered tech that barely anyone should be below that halfway line, except for maybe paul and yoshi. the only specifics i would change on your list would be to bump up ibuki and marduk. both mike ross and combofiend have placed high using marduk, and ibuki is really just so good tbh even though no one plays her. not many play her in ae either and shes good in that game too. granted theres no vortext in sfxt, they should still be nowhere near yoshi imo. though honestly, i don't even think yoshi is that bad of a character either.

Cody is one of the best dlc characters. His c. Lk has good range and is fast. He can also do a lot of damage with his bingo combos. Also a plus is his two hit overhead that can be used to tag out for big damage.
Sakura is terrible. Her tatsus are unsafe on block and her pokes have poor range. Damage output is also nothing special. Lacks her reset game from sf4 due to this game's juggle system.
Didn't really look at the line, just placed them in order, some character feels only slightly better than others.
And I just love discussing tierlists
and I think you're right about Ibuki.bingo combo's are quite a bitch to use online.
And his specials just feel bad, haven't explored his overhead though.

An online tierlist would be different from an offline one. Hugo, Zangief, and Kazuya are much better online than they are offline since it's so hard to react to things with the lag and rollbacks.
Well sorry about that, but this is a online tier-list based on my own experience
It was not meant as the absolute truth but as a discussion starter. You're welcome to post your own.

Guy definitely has potential. His jumping down elbow can cross up opponents. Unfortunately the new characters are banned in the capcom tournaments so he'll probably stay unexplored.
While it's nice it can cross up, it doesn't hit airborne opponents which sucks.
They were only banned in the Austin and NYC ones. They are allowed in the remaining tournaments.

the dlc price? they don't sell individually, gotta buy the whole lot of charas for $20.

Do you have a source for that? The rule sheet on streetfighter25.com just says they are banned but also that rules are subject to change. Though I wouldn't doubt them changing things around given how they chose to use classic mode in hd remix without much notice.
If dlc characters are allowed in the Los Angeles tournament, I'll definitely have to consider using jack x.

technically cole's not a dlc character, he's a console exclusive character. it's too bad too, because from what i've tried, he seems like a really cool character.

Thanks. I didn't watch any of the evo panels so I missed that. Guess I need to go to training mode with the new characters to see if there is anything exploitable.
