Whenever is fine.. No idea why people are 'hyped' Its not like its being recorded...
Unless TimeDog can fraps.. My machine isn't exactly ace on PC SF4.
Gouken is just kinda shit under pressure, unless that is you're psychic and can rely reliably on counter :/Threi said:I went look for Desora's Gouken, and the first match that pops up is this:

poor Gouken needs a nerf, can't hang with the top tier chars at all
Hitokage said:
Hahaha, the only thing I did was refute that Turtle ever "destroyed" me, which he got upset about. I never talked shit or claimed I was better than him. I am actually terrible vs all the characters he plays!
Also, what is fraps? maybe my machine could record the matches?

I'm using a stick with the normal button layout, so I don't think I can do the sliding method.
I've been randomly getting two hits against Ryu in training. The rhythm definitely helped me get the pauses between each jab down(thank you for the video). I suppose the key at this point is correctly pressing jab~fierce so I don't get the grab or the dream crushing blocked fierce.

Fraps is a recording program or something.. I have no idea how to use it nor have ever installed it.Timedog said:

Anyone on XBL right now want to get some matches in?

Maybe the pausing really was the problem. I've been more successful now by varying the timings instead of paying attention to jab~fierce.
DryEyeRelief said:
Exactly. Getting the timing down for jab~fierce is what you want to master.
And from fooling around in training mode, I've found that a standing Ryu (that hasn't been crumpled by a Focus Attack) is pretty tricky to get a 3+ RSF combo against. For some reason, your timing on the 2nd hit has to be EXTRA perfect when trying to do it against him. The execution varies from character to character. For Ryu, if I get the 2nd hit, I can get 5 hits if I'm lucky. For Sakura, I can get 8.
That 2nd hit, for most characters (if not all), determines how many MORE hits you can do. You'll soon see what I mean about the importance of the timing of the 2nd hit.
The most I've ever done in an actual match, however, is 4+slide. And when you're comfortable with the RSF, you can be really flashy and cancel the RSF into Fuerte's Super.

SF2 The Beginning
Buddy linked me this video, really cool. 8 part series. The last minute or two of part 1 is pretty astounding, when Jeff Schaeffer is saying how Mike Watson would get an auto win if he connected with ONE blocked scissors kick. In this version Bison was the best char by far, but yet Tomo was able to avoid getting hit by a single kick whenever he played Mike.
Pretty cool stuff.

It's probably a combination, if my fierce is blocked then I ran too long or the time between stop and fierce was too long.
But that seems to be closer the ideal loop than getting the grab.
Getting the rhythm will probably come with muscle memory and grinding.
You're right about the characters though. Gief is way easier than Ryu. But I have to hope get 2 hits consistently before anything else. Baby steps.

Speaking of random, I played this flowchart Ken on the PC today, but this guy is like the best flowchart Ken I've ever faced. The guy was slamming SRK motions like a nutcase, but only in certain situations. It was like he was a flowchart, but he was kind of smart about it. Whenever I jumped over him when he did a F+MK, I immediately got hit by a SRK before I landed. He kept spamming overheads, but somehow he was psychic enough to DP my pokes. And I got hit a number of times by a EX SRK/HP SRK after a whiff LP SRK because I thought I had enough time to sweep or throw him.
I beat him 5-1, but so many rounds were close. If it wasn't for the fact that he can't block cross ups, I think he would have won more. This guy was nuts, with his DP spam. He spammed DP's, but he was smart enough to not make it a pattern so that I could get easy punishes. I got plenty of them in, but not as much as you would think when you hear "flowchart Ken". He finally beat me in the 5th match and I decide to pick Ken and had probably my most convincing victory in the 6th match. Then the guy never came back. Good stuff, I would love to play him again :lol

I love hearing about the beginning of competitive Street Fighter. Tomo, especially, since he has that whole aura of legend around him and there's like no tournament footage of him.

Yeah. I'm enjoying the series a lot. Jeff's a great storyteller.
One part that made me shake my head is how he said he felt so old at 24, and he had to quit because his reaction times weren't as good anymore.

Sounds a lot of Korean Starcraft.

Shiiieeet. You forgot Mplayer, TEN, *and* WON.
I was alluponz some Heat.net, though. Playing the fuck out of Plane Crazy and Quake 2, but I was playing Quake 2 with just the demo but the game still let you join full servers, you just had no real textures, only checkerboard placeholder shit.
Oh man.

And to think Jeff hadn't played for months/years when he ran those matches with daigo. Imagining a prime Jeff, or even a prime Tomo boggles the mind. I wonder if Japan had players that could've competed with those two in their prime.
