Sakura is the absolute worst when it comes to frame advantage and safe pressure. Adon, Cody, Viper, etc., they wish they could just spam tatsu for free all day like she does.

All I remember is hearing "shapuya! shapuya! shpuya! shapuya! shapuya! shpuya!" And then seeing red and contemplating throwing my stick

 

[Lost Fragment]

Oh yeah. Guess it's worth mentioning that her ex tatsu is +4 on block. lol

I hate when you get a good match going with somebody and after you beat them they switch to a different character almost as if to say "That win you got just now was luck, you aint shit, watch me beat you with this character that I don't even use much".

 

[Venfayth]

It's less risk for them, especially if they were really invested in winning their first match against you.

If they lose, they can say "oh well I don't really play this character", but if they win they can say "ha, that guy sucks, I don't even play this character"

Funny, because I get the opposite reaction. I'll beat someone and then play them again, where they switch to a character that is clearly their main chicken, as if to say "I guess I'll play for real, to prove a point." I think its funny

 

[Imm0rt4l]

I'm sure the guy thought that I didn't beat him convincingly with his dash happy ibuki. Last time I fought this guy he rage quit on me when he was cocky enough to go for f+mk on my wakeup, took a shin shoryuken in the ovaries and quit.


There's nothing wrong with playing other characters when in endless. But you're wack when you have a lobby for "serious matches", get 2 wins, then take an L and switch characters out of salt in hopes of making a statement to your opponent.

sounds to me like you commanded some respect.

Also another really really good match here between claw and juri, very high level play:

Even worse is when you lose to them, then they decide to mirror match you...and you lose to them again

Actually, no I was just mindfucked at your choices/how bad you are with said character.

I don't know about you guys, but mirror matches are the best way to see whose the better character specialist.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

I don't know about you guys, but mirror matches are the best way to see whose the better character specialist.

I think it's a better indicator of who knows the characters weakness better. Either way though, one match alone before booting doesn't really say much.


speaking of mirror matches Bullcat had some mirror matches with Infiltration on youtube, Bullcats gameplay was relegated to focus bait bullshit and I think he deserved to lose. That said even though Infiltration won the set, I'd say Bullcat is the character specialist, but infiltration is probably more talented.

 

[Airan]

That Topanga trailer - I laughed when Uryo appeared looking all SRS BSNS on his bed but afterwards it was all looking rather awesome with all the big names attending... then Mago's turn came on and I lost it

So hyped for it, now if only I could watch it :/ Wasn't there some sort of epic failure with another FG tournament streamed through Nico ppv? Hope it doesn't happen with this one.
[edit] only realized how good the safari theme sounds (probably because it sounds like Tekken music! )... might turn off arrange music to hear it again.

ahahah IS THIS HOW YOU PLAY STREET FIGHTER 4? YOU DO ULTRAS?

 

[AkumaHokoru]

mirrors do reveal the better specialist but they also reveal places you can change/improve your game. you both (should) know what the other wants to do it helps you figure out new ways to approach things.

These dudes don't really know what they're doing unfortunately.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Is Guile's roundhouse flash kick from HDR derived from Rainbow Edition?

 

[Satyamdas]

I don't know about that, but in Rainbow Edition they gave Choon a fireball, and then later when Capcom released Hyper Fighting, lo and behold Choon had a fireball. Rainbow Edition let everyone do their moves in mid air, and then Hyper Fighting gave Ken and Roo air hurricane kicks.

Ross ended up finding me later to play more casuals where he brought out Deejay. Wish someone had recorded those matches because it was the most effective usage of Deejay's footsies/pokes I've seen.

Definitely no coincidence. Hilarious how you could just hit the 1P/2P buttons to switch characters. Bad matchup? What's that?

Fersis to sue for slogan infringement?

 

[Lost Fragment]

Maybe I'm thinking too much about it, but I think it's supposed to resemble a neon sign. Like what would be common at an arcade. Either way, I dig the new logo, but I think some of the proportions and random slanty letters make it look off.
