I didn't think it was possible to hate a character more than Blanka, but Honda's new headbutt did the trick. :|

Guy and Gouken are my hated duo. I seriously can't beat these characters online. Guys that repeatedly do unsafe blockstrings that I can't punish somehow and Gouken's with their ex demon flip into grabs that I swear are untechable and the mighty sweepxsweep blockstring haha.


Dat XBL salt. :)

85% of the roster is just irritating shit.

super fucking setup fighter 4. yaaaaaaay.

capgod patch of the forever blablabla

What aspect is it that you like about this game, then?

I'm sure I wouldn't play this game if the game only had one playstyle.

So I stumbled across a peculiar Viper phenomenon that I assume is a bug, last night. Evil Ryu can actually dash through the start up frames of Viper's cl. st. short. Just set up an E. Ryu dummy to dash forward and mash cl. st. short right next to him. Easier to setup in the corner, but also works midscreen. E. Ryu will dash through and end up on the other side of Viper. Trippy.

I haven't tested everyone, but so far this only seems to be peculiar to E. Ryu, so it's something concerning his forward dash. A friend of mine should be uploading a vid today.

Weird. Juri kind of has something similar, her cl mp can cause her to teleport thru people:

There are some FSE setups that allow you to plan it. You can use it as a reset, but if you act too soon juri will use her followup attack in the wrong direction.

Got schooled by Izuna. So much pressure, dropped dashes all over the place (seriously, I hardly drop dashes in other fights, was really demoralizing). Feels bad man.

Also that kunai mixup, is it not focus-able? I've read that Ibuki has an unblockable but that doesn't mean it's un-focusable surely, not that I could pull that off either.
