Christ, I'm pretty bad but that Akuma has discovered a whole new continent of suck.

As for the Ono pic... I guess Urien would be pretty cool but am I the only one secretly hoping it's Elena? It's on the Africa stage after all.
I saw Elena in that pic, too.

Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me! Sorry for using a "fucked up character", but he's the only one I can play semi-competently. :( *cries* But seriously though I did feel kinda bad though since I knew you were just learning Guy and was gonna bust out my scrubtastic Sakura or Makoto, but you left before I got the chance.

Yeah, sorry, it was already 1am and I have early morning classes.

I've been meaning to do this for some time, but I just uploaded a video of one of the MANY funny things that go down when I play SSF4 with friends - I'd put more up but I'm lazy like that... :lol

Me as Makoto vs a Tiger Cannon coming out practically untouched to win when I wanted to beat him by chip damage - something favorable for The Mak!

And as much as I wanted Urien in SF4 ever since new characters were announced, I doubt that's him in the AE pic, if I was betting cash I'd say it was Yang and leave it at that since you can barely see a thing there anyways...

EDIT: Nevermind, could be Chun.

Ken's new alt looks pretty cool, the Alpha look is sex.

Didn't know it was out that quick already - it's his best looking Alt by far, hopefully someone made a vid of all the colors already, I'm not buying the alt but I just want to see all the colors...

Also, the Ultra Catalog 1 covers what I'm assuming to be the first three packs (Challengers, Shoryuken, and Femme Fatale), so if you have the catalog already and just want to be able to view the new costumes, there's nothing to download.

I wish BP and PP never went up. I want mine to stay 0 forever.

Hehe that would be cool. Btw, sorry I'm never online to play Kadey, would be fun to go up against your Bison as that's one of my bad match-ups... I no longer use Pirateben for SSF4 on PSN.

Feel free to add my other SSF4 only account, in fact that goes for anyone I used to play on my old account - Rice, Farms, Eraldo Cromulent; although being in Taiwan I can't guarantee a smooth connection :S

Anyway, it's Shinobiben (on PSN) for anyone interested.

I'm not sure what they're trying to accomplish with the damage nerf to ex messiah. It doesn't exactly do a lot of damage as-is, unless you fadc into ultra. It's not the damage that makes that move good, it's the utility.

But as a Viper player, I'm thankful for the U2 nerf because it makes the match less stupid for her. But it'll still be nearly as stupid as it was in Vanilla, which is pretty stupid.

Man, Makoto's super is awesome. Too bad I never get to use it.

I should go a few weeks or so playing Flash Metroid style, saving all my meter for super.

It is not Chun-Li.
Unless she developed +30cm on her back, and lost some breast size also.
Watch it closely, seriously.


I did...and I'm convinced that is her blue shoulder pad....not her back

Yeah. Yesterday was laaaaaaaag city. It was fun trolling the dp mashers.
you could do player matches forever without leveling up BP or PP

I've actually had plenty of situations like that, where I can tell someone's gonna shoot off a fireball but I somehow make it through the actual projectile itself. You've gotta have ridiculously good timing, but it's possible. I LOVE it when that happens.

Looking over the changes, overall I'd say that Fei got slightly nerfed. The only thing he really gains off the extra jab frames is a potential combo from a light into sweep, but the spacing for cr.HK is pretty strict since it has ass range. Because st.LP whiffs off a chain on a crouching opponent, I don't see it being a frequently used combo. cl.MP, cr.HK will still be the go-to sweep combo, because it's easily hit-confirmable and an easier link.

The faster start-up for cl.MK means nothing. No one uses cl.MK, since if you're in that range, you might as well be using cl.HP (which has the same start-up, more damage, and is also cancellable).

The lack of invincibility on HK CW is the big loss here, since it's a great tool for avoiding some meaty attacks and throw attempts and leads into his most damaging combos. Now you're pretty much forced to burn meter and accept less damage to get the same result.

What are they on block? Could set up some decent frame traps.

I always felt the invincibility on this attack was pretty BS anyway. I can understand why it was nerfed.

Both are horrible on block (cl.MK is currently -6, cl.HP is -12), but you're going to cancelling the moves every single time you use them (against a grounded opponent).

Right now, Fei's best (and essentially only) frame traps are cl.MP (+3 on block) and cr.MP (+2).

I take back what I said,Sako's winning SCR.

Even if people prepare themselves for his monstrous Cammy,he's got another monstrous weapon.

That crazy bastard is both the best Cammy and Rose...

So all of you who think he's screwed because they nerf Cammy in AE,well... :lol :lol

Seems like Flash is going to pick up Fei. He's been playing he a lot recently on the option-select stream, and himself said he's "80% sure" he will play Fei. I noticed him using some shenanigans (Rekka x2, EX Tenshin) catching people off-guard.

Sako arrives in L.A. today and will be playing at Wednesday Night Fights tomorrow. I was thinking that maybe he should sandbag tomorrow so that he doesn't get downloaded, but that's probably a moot point :lol

CPU-Sako styling with Rose
weapon.

If I were him, I'd use Rose most of the time he's here and save Cammy for the tournament. That way he A) gets some Rose experience and B) people aren't downloading him like Daigo, Wong and Gamerbee (the youtube generation either copies their style or has game tape).

That one combo at the end was hot. Jeez. Dude is ridic.

LTTP but... I notice a lot of (online) juri's focus on the rush-in FUHAJIN combo strings, which is nice but cannot be the sole focus on her gameplan. Her slow walk speed made her footsie game weak (unless the opponent was predictable), hopefully that will change with this slight tweak in speed!
I think you are looking at the use of fuhajin wrong for one reason. that stored fireball is juri's defense against characters with better footsies than her (everyone) she can throw a poke it gets blocked they go to punish. BLAMMO. Fireball to the mouth. advantage juri. with fuha to pinwheel...you will definately not have your fireball stocked...or if you do it'll be the wrong one so you'll get that knockdown and a pixel of damage but then...what will you do to keep your pressure going?
(no way you are going to be able to do Lk fuhajin to LK sempusha(which will be the only sempusha to combo off fuhajin for the record due to the others being too slow/having too much start up)

I dont know how to take this fuhajin change

It's sempusha off fuhajin charge because apparently it kicks them higher in the air, so you might be able to do QCF+LK, c LP~release LK, QCB+LK.

Unless they've added juggle ability to MK and HK sempusha too.

How do you download Sako's Cammy anyway? 50/50 guesses all day. Might as well go to the casino and try your luck.

Still difficult but not impossible. Ask Mago. Ask Daigo in the GGO2 prelims and to an extent the later match (which he got blown up in). Eventually, you adapt to the shenanigans.

And if you listen to the Marn interview from WakeupSRK, a lot of these players want to play you with your primary character. It helped Marn beat Daigo.

Is that in the TOS? All I see is less than 90 x 120
As displayed. Avatars are forced to 90px so if their width is less than that they'll get scaled up.

This has been the case for several years.
