Not sure if that's a threat or a gay pickup line
Yep. Turtling is such a huge component of online play it seems. CM is started to become boring.
Characters like Sagat, Gouken and Ryu should never be turtles.
And I just got beaten by one of those godly Gens. He did a wall kick, into super, into Ultra on me. Probably the most amazing finish ever put on me.

ninja edit - I don't know if Gouken can successfully turtle, I know he has the air fb, but lack of great anti air and high priority close range pokes kinda hurts him, plus doesn't he have below average life? Or am I remembering wrong.

What? I'm pretty sure the best win with Sagat by constantly jumping forward and throwing when they land. If someone tries a link, just mash out a uppercut. That's not turtling.haunts said:

Who is MrWiz on XBL? I feel like I've heard that name before.
I played him and it was pretty close, but he won 2 out of the 3 rounds with some jump-in into ultra combo from Rufus that I don't remember seeing before(I almost never play against Rufus'). What is that? Do I just need to be super wary of jump in's with rufus?

His divekicks? Yeah. You can be wary of em, but any good Rufus is going to be using them on you constantly. He most likely got you with a divekick xx lk -> fk target combo -> ultra.
My only advice is to block low after a dive kick in case he doesn't combo, and thus you block the target combo -> ultra

Rufus. Definitely the king of Ultras. I was playing against Timekiller and there had to be 6 million ways to land ultra.
Didn't know Mr. Wiz played.

There were over 50+ SE sticks at the Fry's here in Plano for 360 and PS3 today.
Hey FMF.. They have SF4 setup on the TV.. You can go live over there if you want..
75 & Plano Pkwy.
Rufus Target Combo is Low Kick > High Kick.. It then launches you in the air for an easy Ultra juggle.
Kens is like Forward med punch + forward high punch or just medium + high punch I forget.
Some characters have target combos.
El Fuertes is horrible.. its just MK twice..

lol, wrong quote, but a target combo is a character specific combo you can perform with their normals. Rufu's target combo is lk -> fk. The lk hits low, then combos into the fk which juggles, allowing him to land the ultra. It's a common setup to perform after rufus lands a divekick. However, it isn't always comboable after a divekick, so it's good to block low if you think they're fishing for it to prevent the juggle.
Also, we're at 657 pages, how are we still complaining about turtle scrubs SMH.

The Dive Kick has to be a low Dive Kick.. Don't know if its comboable if its a high dive kick..

They have the SE sticks up.. No internet.. no unlocked chars =[
Oh and shitty kids playing it 90% of the time.. I played it and perfected some 5 year old twice with Vega.. It was awesome.

TurtleSnatcher said:
yeah, that's why I said block low after the divekicks in case it doesn't combo. Some people I know just let go of block after a divekick assuming they'll get comboed, and it's just dumb to do that IMO. Also, for some characters (i forgot who, but there's 6 of them, Honda being one) the FK flat out whiffs if their crouching, even if the lk connects.

Yeah, GGs (didn't even know that was you! lol)
I love playing against people better than me. Forces me to improve - otherwise I just sit still at my skill level and can never advance. And I think player matches is a good place to be like this since I can continually train against a specific player rather than just continually adapt to other players in championship and such.
And I kept getting lucky I guess in random. But Seth twice? wtf.
Spiderjericho said:
As far as I know, Rufus has 4 Ultra setups.
1- Target Combo -> Ultra
2- j. RH -> Ultra (on some characters at the right distance, you can do j. RH -> ex Snake Strike -> Ultra but it's VERY hard to land)
3- Corner Galactic Tornado -> Ultra
4- ex Messiah Kick -> LK followup -> FADC -> Ultra.
I only landed 1 and 4 against you. I VERY RARELY land 2 (mostly just against scrubs) and 3 is so situational... You can combo it off a dive kick -> fp -> Galactic but it has to be a dive kick that hits on the lower part of the opponent and even then the fp link isn't that easy to land since it REALLY depends on how low the dive kick hit.
I'm definitely better with Abel than with Rufus - once someone goes on all-out defensive against Rufus I'm usually stuck. I need to apply pressure with Galactic Tornadoes since they're 100% safe on block but for some reason I always forget to do that (same with Abel and his wheel kick!)
FindMyFarms said:>>Here's the juggle<<
And I do have my ps3 back, it just doesn't turn on
Well fix it! It won't turn on is a wuss' excuse.
And that is a freaky crazy thing to do. As always, Justin impresses, but I really wish he would've fought someone else than Seth. Every time I see a top level VS Seth fight, it turns into a crazy game of cat and mouse as the non-Seth player just runs after Seth like there's no tomorrow and there are very few opportunities for actual learning. I mean, 99% of the stuff he does in that fight I do on a VERY regular basis and I'm not that good.
I also find it very strange that I completely suck against random scrubs but I fare much better against better players. I think it's because I gear my game towards mind games a lot but most scrubs are immune to mind games and Abel doesn't have any super uber high priority moves (aside from TT I guess but even that against a shoto is useless to throw randomly as srk will always beat it).

man I keep running into the same guy online called Trixz NL or something. I see that name and I'm like 'you again'
I'm starting to learn his Sagat and I'm sure he knows my blanka tricks by now. I think we are 2 each or something. Shit gets real when it says 'fight' wonder if the dude recognises me.
it's quite funny, I think I've only ever played a couple gaffers but starting to recognise strangers. it's amusing to see how they've moved up with points each match up I get against em.

fighting scrubs = baiting + punishing.
Make em do something dumb then punish w/ cr. fp xx lk roll xx cr. fp xx mk roll. It lands you right next to them and I guarantee you they'll be mashing a dp or something, which lets you restart the whole chain again. Do it once or twice and they'll get smart, which means next time instead of blocking after the reset you can just TT.
Did we ever play abel mirror?

Tonight was horrible.. HORRIBLE. I almost threw my XB360 out the window. After tonight I honestly want to cancel my EVO flight and never touch this game again.
Never been so frustrated.
I got into like 6 or 7 finals tonight and I lost 5 out 7 or something to the most crappy scrubs. And of course all 5 of those CP totals if I won would have been MUCH better then what my current high is. But of course I don't win any of those and the 2 I win are against people who had low or no CP at all to give.
UGH.
My cross up fierces are just whiffing a ton and then I get punished hard and people throw me.
1 Bison I played I perfected then he somehow destroyed me the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Same thing with a Gouken. I just don't get it
I have no fucking clue why I am so freaking bad in this game argh. I'm telling myself I need to learn stick so I can RSF these hoe bags to death. Anyways.. 7850GP now.. Didn't play much this week. Hoping to hit 10k by end of next weekend.

Haunts was banned it appears through the Tatsunoko vs Capcom thread and it coming to America.
He wasn't exactly a 'fan' of fighting games on the Wii. I was just looking back at his last posts. That's probably why he got banned.

I been mucking with fuerte in player matches a bit. I never play SF with a microphone (I mean, why would you) and one time I heard a guy say 'BULLSHIT' through my speakers after I did that belly flop on his head 6 times in a row.
Fuerte, while sucking real bad is easily the awesome-ist guy to play as. If I actually win with that dude I sometimes stand up and hop around on my feet like he does when he's just standing there.
If I ever have a kid I'm getting him a chefs hat and a little frying pan and teaching him flips.

I know of baiting and such, but with Abel it's a bit more difficult outside getting a knockdown and hoping for a dp or something similar. It's just.. different I guess. But the problem is still there - they're usually both incredibly predictable and unpredictable at the same time, since you NEVER KNOW when they'll catch on, and if they seem like they're catching on, sometimes it's just because they missed the dp, sometimes they catch on but their instincts come back to them a second later, etc. I guess if I played better trapping/zoning characters it'd help. I can't imagine running into that problem with Sagat, for example. So now with Abel I rely on getting a down then doing wakeup mixups either outside dp range or crossups on wakeup.
And we never did play Abel mirror. That'd be fun

Aside from the "cr. fp xx lk roll xx cr. fp xx mk roll" that I posted, which is my favorite baiting tactic off a punish, you can also bait w/ f. mk xx dash. After you throw a few times, they'll start mashing out the dp's.
Once i get my system goin we'll def run that mirror

I played a bunch of games Saturday night and experienced a similar level of frustration. Aside from being beaten by players with ridiculously transparent strategies that I simply could not capitalize on was the fact 3 out of every 4 matches was against Ryu. When it wasn't Ryu, it was someone playing Akuma and doing the classic jump away and fireball tactic and every time I beat them down enough, doing a raging demon. The only good matches I had were against someone using Guile and someone using Sakura. The rest; meh... The real ironic thing is though Ryu and Ken are my primaries, I used random to pick my character for most of my matches. I didn't want to be another one of the schmucks who never use another character.TurtleSnatcher said:Tonight was horrible.. HORRIBLE. I almost threw my XB360 out the window.
