That's because ST is for scrubs and cowards that hide behind super meters.

Why U2? I don't play makoto, but it seemed like you could have bodied mike ross even harder with all those karakusas you landed
My awful Chun-Li record is up to 6-27 now lol. I will say though that the last ten games or so with maybe only an exception or two there weren't really any blowouts, and probably most of the rounds were pretty close either way. Also was getting in some good experience against playing different characters; I haven't watched a ton of SF4 streams up to this point, so some people I was getting bodied the first round or two because I was seeing stuff I was just completely unfamiliar with, like someone killed me with a Seth Ultra I have never seen in my life and I had no idea what the fuck to do. Also found myself starting to read people a bit, and realizing that I was getting predictable and mixing things up which definitely seemed to be helping. I still need to work on integrating FA's into my arsenal once I start to get a grip on things though, I barely use them right now.
All in all having a much better time then I would have thought even though I'm losing most of the time. I probably need to start joining Endless lobbies as opposed to just doing Ranked matches though, it might help to watch other people play. Probably the highlight of the night was someone who was taunting and barely won the match; I then got a rematch with him and absolutely crushed him, good times.

Only means you haven't lost enough yet
I'm 6-27 god damn it!
Except for matches where I get utterly blown up it doesn't bother me all that much, and that's mostly because I know it was my own damn fault.
I'm 6-27 god damn it!
I go 5-50 in a day.
6-27 isn't enough of a metric to base anything on. Just keep playing. You may wind up loving it or hating it

Yeah, so far at least though I'm having a good time. FOR NOW
Don't let Threi bring you down. Dude is called Eeyore for a reason.
Everyone has bad stretches, and at this point in the game's life you are going to run mostly into people who have been playing for years, if not since the SF2 days. Most of the complete noobs are gone by now, so yeah, winning will be a lot harder than it was when the game was new. Don't focus on your win-loss ratio so much, focus on improving as you play. Pay attention to what other players are doing that is causing you problems and try to adjust and adapt. Pay attention to what you do that doesn't work and try to stop. Pay attention to your bad habits and try to eliminate them. If your execution is giving you trouble then spend a little time in training mode.
The worst thing you can do is focus too much on your win-loss record.
Punishes blocked Blanka balls. But to be honest I didn't think much about which ultra to use since it was only casuals anyways.
are you on psn or 360 or pc?
I'm not bringing anyone down. I am saying the opposite, that he hasn't lost nearly enough to actually say anything yet. But at the same time you have to know when to throw in the towel as well. "Practice and the wins will come" Is nice and all and would make a great afterschool special, but things aren't really like that. You can practice until your heart's content, and wind up getting nowhere. It's just the way things are. All i'm saying is if nothing clicks and the wins don't come, then just put it down and move on. It will benefit him in the end.
...but at the same time he could be the next daigo. Who knows.

So, I guess I have a silly question of sorts......
Can someone explain the whole kara concept to me? What is it? How is it used? When do you use it? etc. I feel like I should know it by now, but I really don't =(

It's usually when you cancel the startup of a normal into a special to give it different range or properties.

Top Tier Depression

The detail of TOPANGA League's prize money was revealed last night on TOPANGA TV.
1st place - 555,555 yen
2nd place - 100,000 yen
3rd place - 50,000 yen
4th place - 25,000 yen
5th place - 20,000 yen
6th place - 15,000 yen
7th place - 10,000 yen
8th place - 5,000 yen
9th place - 1,000 yen
10th place - 500 yen
11th place - 100 yen
12th place - 5 yen
The winner will be awarded 555,555 yen, this makes TOPANGA League the highest-paid fighting game tournament in Japan. Before this, the record holder was GODSGARDEN Online #2 with 500,000 yen prize money for the winner.
In Japan, collecting entry fees from players for the prize pot is illegal, as it will be treated as unauthorized gamble. Prize money must come from sponsors, not directly from the tournament organizer. Otherwise, the organizer must give away prize money without getting entry fees. And when big companies don't lend their hands, this's the deadlock which is half of the reasons why the scene grows very slowly.
There's no doubt that TOPANGA League's prize pot will come from the pay-per-view streaming. This's the move that could change Japan's fighting game scene as we know completely. The league has players that viewers want to see, and not only one match. Viewers' money goes to their favorite players' pocket. All players are guaranteed to be paid and/or be on stream for weeks on Japan's No.1 streaming site.
Nyanshi, TOPANGA organizer, mentioned that if the first TOPANGA League becomes a success, we could see "B League" (2nd tier league) in the second season.
FYI... 555555 yen = 7,237.47 USD
More importantly, 5 yen = 0.0651373 USD
LETS GOOOO 12TH PLACE

I'm guessing they do have a sponsor to provide the guaranteed money(probably the same rich guy or some other rich guy), but they want to recoup the money being used to pay out the players by having a paid stream. I'm willing to support this but I do hope they change certain things such as making it more accessible to international viewers and pricing it a bit more friendly. I know the argument is that it's $6 per day and $45 for all 3 weekends. If you're going to experiment with something like this, I think it's best to not scare away your audience. But then again, this is targeted at the Japanese audience and maybe that price isn't that bad for them. But still I hope they can take some notes and learn from this. There is more money to be made if they choose a better model although I'm sure there will be plenty of stream monsters shouting "I gotta pay, fuck that shit".
But anyways I am willing to pay up to watch this and I've mentioned this before. We just need someone to figure out how to use that NICO site so we can have a GAF stream. About those pay outs, they're good but once you get to 10th place and below it's start to feel like a slap in the face. Seriously, they're going to say "here is your nickel bro", and you're like "uh huh :|"

No YHC Mochi or Darui or PPN in this Topanga Cup thing fucking blows. Not that I'd expect them to win with dat mid tier Sim, but I'm like 74% less hype without a character to root for.
Actually, Art was talking about this the other day, that he's been keeping up with the sets from Japanese arcades that have been posted on Eventscrubs, and Daigo's been beating Sim players with his Ryu. I think he said he even went 7-0 vs. one of them. Even when Champ beat Daigo those few times, it almost always came down to the final hit and was the epitome of a coin toss. Daigo knows that matchup inside and out, and with a really good version of Roo in 2012 I won't be surprised if he doesn't have much trouble at all vs. Sim any more.
Art thinks the matchup is 5-5 now and I agree, it isn't anywhere near as bad for Roo as it was in Super or AE. But we won't be able to see that matchup in this Topanga thing, unfortunately.

What has changed that has made it a 5-5? The higher fireball damage?
nvm just saw momochi
Momochi is listed. Dunno if he is using Cody though.
Not only the higher damage from fireballs but that they are faster, it helps Roo in fireball wars with Sim. Higher damage on his fierce shoryu also helps, and having his cr. mk back makes him a lot better in the close-mid range game.

wtf is up with Sakura? It feeles like everything she does is safe on block. I have never been so frustrated when fighting a character. I had to stop playing because Sakura sent me into a fucking rage. ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Aren't you using Fuerte? I've never really had trouble with Sakura. The round is pretty much over the second you get a knockdown.

I've been toying with other characters, Sagat in this example. I like diversity in my SF!
I never had trouble with her as Fuerte, fwiw
pfft, diversity is overrated. One character for life!

Pretty sure Adon's negative after everything, while lk tatsu is 0 on block. Probably + if it's meaty.
