Bison mirrors are annoying for me, but that is because its a game of footsies and "who can charge better"Gr1mLock said:
Always starts the same too:
FIGHT!
1. Both bisons start by DR or dash back
2. Bison A slides in/jumps in
3. Bison B goes for a blockstring ending in lk scissors
4. Bison A tries to catch Bison B at the end of lk scissors with lk xx lk scissors
5. Bison B tries to catch Bison A at the end of lk scissors with lk xx lk scissors
6. Bison A tries to mix it up with ex scissors
7. Bison A or B fucks up a charge and gets hit with a scissors
8. Bison that got the knockdown either tries a) Safe jump with HP or b) Crossup with mk
9. Bison that got knockdown EX PSYCHOS OUT OF THAT MUDDAFUKKA
10. Go to step 2, repeat until one Bison is dead.
Mix in some st.mk and st.hk in as well for spice.

yeah, I main Chun, and I just can't stand mirror matches. When it happens, I just really don't care if I win or not. It's probably as bad as other mirror matches like Dhalsim or that epic Honda turtle match I saw on youtube :lol The only mirror match I can stand is Ryu.
anyway, it's getting harder finding random player matches these days. Hardly anyone on. So I stopped being picky with the connection speed for one night and fought someone with a red bar connection. Holy shit! The lag was so bad. He was absolutely terrible....just doing jumping roundhouse to sweep all day long and I couldn't block it. Lag really sucks.
and GGs to MyDingling last night! at least our orange connection didn't seem too bad

It could be just that the other guy is better at mirrors than you are but dammit its a pride issue

Q is actually the least ballsy character. He's in no rush to get where he's going.

Fuerte Mirrors are worse =[AZ Greg said:
Depends on the character. If I ever see another Rose or Gen, I will usually pick mirror match just to say "Hey, another Rose/Gen!"Gr1mLock said:
I often think, for the great masses of Ken/Ryu players out there, it must be nice respite to face someone who ISN'T a mirror (or shoto) match.

I haven't had a Dhalsim mirror match in months. Hardly anyone plays him.Gr1mLock said:
Well, shit. :lolOichi said:
At least it looks hard to do.

Hm, at any rate I doubt it'll be much of an issue since no one will want to practice it since it only works on Dhalsim.Hitokage said:
I'd be worried more, but I can't play on XBL anymore because the 360 died. Perhaps I'll look into the PC version, but it'll be a bitch working my joystiq at my desk :lol

Speaking of mirror matches, I hate Ryu mirror matches when the other guy actually knows what he's doing. Basically you can't jump at all, it's all footsies and zoning. And chances are the guy I'm facing is much more patient then me and will NEVER feel like moving forward. Thus I'm the one putting myself at risk by trying to advance on them.

While sitting on my office chair? That feels a little funky too. I guess I'll just have to mess around with various configurations.Hitokage said:

Yeah I just tried it out in training mode, the sbk has to be short and at the distance where it hits twice.
The c. jab link is kinda hard, feels like a one framer. I could get about 3 repetitions, but nothing consistent.

The best thing to use a stick on is a Tablemate II
You can use in sitting on just about anything. I love mine.

Dear GAF,
I own this game, but am not very good at fighting games. How can I get better?
Will I get better?
Is practicing with a normal controller even worth it?

Well instead of just taking repeated beatings, maybe you should do some research on your main character(if you haven't) and try making some friends online to practice with. Maybe someone on GAF with the same version of SF4 can mentor you a bit. They could show you what you could do in certain situations and what to avoid to better your game. That's all I got, good luck.

1.Follow your heart on which character you want to learn the most.
2.Spend some time at the Street Fighter IV section at forums.shoryuken.com to get a grasp on the games basics and for the character you decide to go with.
3.Search out some youtube videos for your character to see different levels of play so you have a better understanding of the game and the characters combos,pokes,movement etc in a real match.
4.Practice execution on the controller you are using or invest in a joystick if you know you are gonna get the most out of it.

Holy shit, aaaahahahahahhaa!_dementia said:
Practicing on a controller will definitely help you even if you eventually move to a stick. You'll need to spend some time familiarizing yourself with the stick, but all of the links and combo executions you've learned flow pretty smoothly over any input device (in my experience...).LegendOfGood said:
