^^ You can't be a top Marvel (or Guilty Gear) player and not have top of the top execution. Just does not happen.

Maybe with his Sagat but those ackward jumping LKs hitting nothing with Cammy are supposed to be instant Cannon Strikes I think. Daigo should have punished those with shoryukens but since he's probably not used to the matchup, he probably thinks those faints done on purpose. (Not to be confused with the j.HK which were done on purpose). Any regular Cammy player will notice those stupid jumps.FindMyFarms said:

Good luck with that. Especially if you don't play Ken/Ryu/Akuma much.
hikarutilmitt said:
God Ryu is so scrubby to use. Not having to give effort unless someone goes equally scrubby.
I can now see why people bitch about mashing out of blockstrings so easy though. It is.
I just can't bring myself to use this braindead of a char anymore.

Where's Time Dog with the mayo?
The player who won MVC2 last year in Evo and made it to top 8 in SFIV is being dissected and criticized. Man, J.Wong was right.
I won't lie, I made light of Perfect Pringles this Sunday, but I know in my feeble heart that he would crush my Ryu/Dan/Honda/whoever and is a better player.
And I'm also curious about that SB4 DVD. I'd be willing to plink a few dollars down to cop it. I was saddened by the lack of an Evo DVD last year. The IGN deal was eh.
And Galactic, that chat is dead!! Er time I pop in there (as seldom as I do), there's never anyone in there. It's better to just post in here that you're going to play.

There is a reason why I call Ryu Scrubby Nubby.
Because he's so easy a retarded chimpanzee can use him and have a shot at winning.

played against this dude on XBL today named SSSSCHOTTO, and his bison fucking handed my ass to me. reminds me of how bad the Bison/Honda matchup is though. To make matters worse he also mained Honda, so he knew of everything that Bison can get away with. His Honda was pretty brutal as well. I didn't see him drop a hands combo once.

My bad for ducking you on our rematches. I've been so damn busy with the site I havent had any time for any haunts vs the world streams this week.
It's ok, I was busy getting slaughtered at a local session tonight T_T

Rose could be kind of frustrating to play as. She's pretty much the worst character to get knocked down as, especially in the corner. Bad fireball. Limited anti-air options. Unimpressive damage output.
But she's still fun to play as and has a few things going for her. Her slide kick is a really good move in a lot of different situations, and the scarf drill is pretty good once you've got some spacing down with it. She has a (not as good, of course) super fireball trap like Ryu, which is nice.
I really like Gen with his different stances and jumping arcs and everything, making your opponent consider a lot of different things (against a character they probably aren't that familiar with in the first place), but the execution barrier is enough that I can't quite bother with actually playing him.

Gen actually isn't too hard, ignoring his mk -> hands stuff, which you're not gonna be doing on pad anyway.
Half of his moves are charge though.

I don't know, if Ryu is THAT easy/scrubby, then Chun must be pretty scrubby too, cause I can win a good amount of matches with her despite not even knowing all of her moves cause I play 95% Ryu.
What's are some characters where you HAVE to have good footsies to do well? I'm looking for a new practice secondary.

Just getting back into this recently after playing it a ton during launch week and then setting it aside. It's amazing and awesome that even after all this time, I can find a match in seconds at any time of day, within my skill range. I was afraid that only hardcore players would be around.
Interestingly, I first tried a few player matches, and got completely wiped out all three times. I then tried a few ranked matches, and held my own okay. Finally I got into the championship mode, which I really love, since it seems to do an excellent job of matching me with people of like skill levels. I'm at G3-A, and seem to be winning about 60% of my matches right now, which is super fun.
I'm a scrubby Blanka btw ... and that's all I aspire to be :lol

Gouken is probably more forgiving than Rose or Gen, for several reasons. He has more health, more options than Rose, and fewer execution walls than Gen.
I think he's pretty boring to play as though, personally. But whatever. Just start playing around with some characters and whichever one you have the most fun with, go for it.
Maybe consider Fei Long too. He's pretty fun.

Yeah, even in G1 on XBL it didn't take me long to find matches, no matter what time of the day it was.
SG is a different story

I think I do better with Chun than Abel, and I have probably played as her for fewer than 30 matches :/Timedog said:
Feeling extra salty that jump back fierce kick beats everything Rufus has. Not to mention that any Cammy player who knows how to TKCS is pretty much my worst enemy ever.
Nah it's cool though, I'm having major trouble transitioning my Rufus game to trying to learn Ken. I have most of Ken's links down, but Rufus is like king of the air, and it's hard getting used to spacing with Ken that I could cover in a instant with Rufus. Pretty much, I suck at footsies and need to learn asap.
GG's to everyone I played in the late night chat on PSN. Always good to get some good experience from you guys. Keep up the good work.

Surprisingly, Ken has some mad footsies with Cr.Mk and Forward Forward. Ryu is the most footsie heavy character in the game tho.

Fixed :lol
That's probably why I love Chun so much. Don't know what you should be doing? Neutral jump. Worse thing that can happen is someone sees it coming, rushes in and tries to FADC. If that happens you either take it and jump back rh, or stomp. So gooooood.
