Yo guys, to all who didn't see the stream, here's one of my best matches from the day. My two team members lost to their first player, and I came back and reverse OCV'd their team, which was sweet since they were a favorite to win it all.

Sucks that they came back and beat us in Losers finals due to some mistakes on our part but all in all a good show. Finally showing people that Cody can be a real threat against any character.

Starts at 42:45. Also, if you go back a bit, the Dudley player is Chaotix here on GAF, and later in the match you can see FindmyFarms behind me coaching me and cheering me on aka shaking the shit out of me haha.

Proud of you son, we still need to do that FT10 :C

Hey guys no doubt a lot of you would've seen some AE videos from Sydney, we got it just in time for our S3 tournament, it was a very awesome weekend.

Me and some combomakers had been putting together a video for this event, it's online now and you can check it out at combovid.com (or youtube :D ).

I'm posting it here because you guys are most likely to be the ones interested in it, and it has a SSF4 theme. I did keep the theme a bit loose though and allowed some Charlie and Haggar combos because those characters are awesome, and they're sort of in the game (in the animated sequences, backgrounds and alt costumes etc).
Combo videos never cease to put a smile on my face. Awesome stuff, man. Nice music too!

Anyone has any idea if duds counterpick mania has been fixed in AE... tired of someone picking Honda or chun and all of a sudden its a hard fight...

Well, they deleted Honda, RH and cMK should be more useful vs Dhalsim. He got buffed and a lot of his bad matchups got worse, so it shouldn't be as bad. Fei's still going to suck, though.

Amber alert, E. Honda was last seen on the back of a milk carton.

I'm back home in L.A. and can finally play Super SF4 for the 1st time :lol What's with all this goddamn rain though?

I missed all the tourneys since I've been busy. I take it GamerBee won at Paris? It's hilarious that I've been telling him snow is fun to play with if you're a kid, but a pain if you have to go outside and work. Well, GamerBee sees snow for the first time at Paris and thinks it's cool, but is now stranded in Paris because of the snowstorm :lol

Got some good games today against family. Feels so good. AE can't come soon enough.

Wait, that's SnowWolf/Protocol Snow? What's up up with the name change?

And how did things go down in Paris? Did Gamerbee win and how'd he do in money matches or long sets with him against Europe's finest. I gotta say going to Evo has really changed his life. Dude is a celebrity in the SF community now.

Gamerbee won (beat Luffy in the Grand Final, at least I think that was the grand final). Pretty much ran through the rest of Europe's finest too - Ryan, Evans, Allioune, Starnab, VRyu et al.

Yeah Evo was a life changer. It's all well deserved - on top of being a godlike player he's a lovely bloke too.

I read that Alioune beat Gamerbee in a FT10 though. Did they meet in the tourney or have a money match or another FT10? Alioune is such a monster, but does he not like money? He probably could have won so many Euro tourneys already if he just attends.

Hmm I could be wrong on that - I heard he beat Alioune but maybe that was casuals and not the FT10 (which I didn't hear about)... not sure as I didn't watch the whole stream.

Maybe someone else who caught all the action can clarify...?

Lol, wonder if the best move was to nerf them rather than just fix the problems with some of duds moves. But oh well whatever works!

Well, I am able to clarify it myself... just spoke to Gamerbee - he hasn't played Alioune in-person yet (only online), but is going to his house today for some games.

Awesome to see Shiro back. Loved his Abel in the vanilla days.
 
DryEyeRelief said:
I think he was always playing. It's just he plays on PSN, and pretty much all replays on the internet are from xbl.
Ah, gotcha. Is there a reason that overall top players prefer Xbox? Someone told me timing was different and Xbox is closer to arcade. Any truth to that?

According to this Alioune never entered the main solo tournament. And apparently the long set between him and Gamerbee doesn't have a confirmed winner.

http://shoryuken.com/f315/bushido-i...une-gamerbee-luffy-ryan-hart-name-few-259957/

But really, what's up with Alioune? It's like the guy has fallen in love with his own mystique. The #1 player in Europe without a doubt won't enter tournaments, so strange.

Not everyone enjoys tourneys, some people just play for fun!

Wow that's the first time I've seen that loop with Dudley on Abel. Is that an infinite or does he eventually get pushed out of range?

Lots to like in this one, thumbs up.

no idea. i know that among the top players in japan, some bp/pp grind on both ps3 and xbox. so i don't think there's a preference.
 
The only tournament I know he entered was World Games Cup. He finished 2nd in one of the two solo tournaments, lost to Eita in the finals. In FT5's with Daigo and Eita, he got blown up pretty badly. It was the worse against Eita who really raped him hard in the Akuma/Sagat match up.

I see that he entered the team tourney and partnered up with Gamerbee, but not the solo as I already said. And I'm sure people just want to play for fun. But it still makes no sense, he spends tons of time playing this game and has reached a point where all of Europe has proclaimed him the best. But still he won't enter tourney's, if nothing else then to at least just win money. How can you not want money? Oh well, I'm done trying to understand the guy.

You know, it's probably just for netplay reasons now that I think about it. There are many majors that use PS3 including Evolution.

http://twitter.com/#!/aojiru_zabel/status/15958718378156033

Months ago, he has changed his ring name to Aojiru Zabel, but he's still playing Rog. According to his twitter, the guy behind that "Shin(new) Aojiru Guile" is Dashio.
He also mentioned Dashio will make another card for his Viper with different name though.

that makes sense. he was using ibuki early on in Super.

They use 360 because the PS3 has that input delay. They also probably migrated to the 360 because Daigo, Sako, Mago, and Tokido were using it. Of course Gods Garden started to use it, which made the other top players make the switch.

Originally the jp 360 userbase was:

Daigo
Dashio
Mago
Tokido
Makoto
YHC Mochi
Sako
GamerBee
Uryo
Acqua
Iyo


Once Gods Garden got involved the jp userbase increased with Momochi, Eita, Kindevu, Bonchan, Tonpy, etc...

Doesn't really matter anymore now that AE is here.


Edit: Had no idea Kim had Iyo AE Ibuki footage on youtube. Hell yeah.

I'm pretty sure a lot of Dudley's bad matchups will stay that way except for maybe Guile. He's supposed to have a hard time getting in simply based on character design.

DarkoMaledictus said:

The thing with Honda is that he was supposed to be an Iron wall, which was bad for any character that needed to get in to do their damage. Even though he did his job well, he still had his share of bad matchups thanks to character design. Now that the developers have overlooked that, we're left with a character that can't do much of anything.

There are some timing differences between 360 and PS3, but PSN is the reason that people prefer the 360 version for online play.
