Losing is gonna happen, but there's those games every now and then where you just get hit by EVERYTHING. I was staring at my tv with my mike ross face on swearing i blocked/backdashed/reversal'd and still ate shit.

Yea, I played Adon/Gief last time we played. You mained Honda before, right?

I've been playing heavy deejay/rose the last month. Yea, I want to pick up Elena. I'm so used to her 3S self though, her super moon jumps and wonky (to me) animation is throwing me off.

Something about deejay man, he feels good to me, lol. I feel weird going back to Adon now.

Try this in training mode - I am assuming you're on an arcade stick:

Hover your ring finger just over the HP button and your middle finger over the MP button. Bring down both fingers at the same time - you get MP+HP, and you'll hear both buttons being hit at the same time.

Do the same thing again but bring down your middle finger later. You will get HP then MP and hear two button presses.

Now, try reducing the amount of time between hitting HP and MP. Eventually, you should be able to do it where you hit the MP only a frame later than the HP. When you do this, you will get what is notationally written as HP~MP, which in the SF4 engine will input HP, then MP+HP on the next frame. MP+HP is the same as HP for normals, so you get two HP inputs on simultaneous frames.

I think i understand, I'm going to try that. Thanks!

So if you are trying to link ERyus axe kick with low med punch you "plink" it with light punch and it will read it as medium on the first possible frame?

Riza Hawkeye was the best VA for Chun (CVS2). She has a deep and stern voice that made it believable that Chun was actually a police officer. All the other VA for Chun was too cutesy, moe, squeaky for a police office to have.

yup, though it wouldn't automatically give you the link on the first possible frame. Instead it gives you an extra frame of leniency when executing. i.e. instead of it being a 1 frame link, it would be a 2 frame link

Yeah, I mained Honda and haven't really touched him at all since Ultra. Trying to go all in with Decapre, but it gets frustrating trying to learn all these matchups.

I tried deejay for a while too, but you should really go with rose unless you insist on playing a charge character. I have shitty execution so I really only try to learn charge characters.

Anyone play Decapre? Looking for a resource to learn the basics with her.
Click to expand...
No idea how to play her, but will just say that the most successful Decap's I've seen have the been the patient ones not afraid to lame it out.

btw, thanks again on the kara Ultra throw tip. I can do it pretty regularly now. Having some trouble with the EX version though.

Man, PSN is so beyond shit for USF4 that I'm honestly thinking of using it purely for training with Elena and using AE PC for everything else till Ultra comes out in August. I'm getting tired of these 'you've signed out of PSN' every other match when I'm still signed in. Hell, I even get it when I'm trying to do training mode with fight request.

Is gamerbee still using Elena, or is he having a character identity crisis? I can't help but feel he just won't be as strong in future tournaments, but only time will tell.

He already started to fall near the end of AE2012. I think his time is done, but he could pick it back up again.

And can you teach me how to dud? I'm gonna be picking up Dudley as my alt for Elena. He seems to compliment a lot of Elena's bad matchups. And he's a motherfucking gentleman.

Yea, next time I'm on we can maybe get some in and I could show you some things.


I wanna say it's time to put a fork in gamerbee he's done. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't make it out pools at EVO. Nobody knew the dude when he was playing akuma.

After all this time of waiting for Ultra to drop, I find myself gravitating toward Rufus instead of any of the new characters...

gg's XCobalt. Rolento's pole tricks were making me mad salty. Dude is crossing me up and the character isn't even facing that side
Click to expand...

I was getting salty over elena haha. The high low game is tough to handle but her throw range was the most frustrating thing. I also kept messing up my anti air U2. Need to hit up training mode and find the right distance.

Her forward throw range is really ass. Like her hands go through the opponent and you don't get thrown. Her back throw has better throw range tho. I've had a lot of Rolento's try to AA U2 me but I haven't had it work once against me.

Yeah I keep missing u2 as an AA. I really should practice it in training instead of constantly missing it in matches. But that's what I use online for anyway, to test shit and see if it works. I think I just need to use it when they're lower to the ground. The move is fast as hell so maybe I need to start using it like Vega's u2.

Her back throw range is infuriating. It's like Dhalsim status. And I miss all my AA attempts on Elena because her jump is so floaty, hahaha.

That should make it easier. It'll just take a bit of practice, but Elena is definitely the easiest character to AA in the game.
Click to expand...
Oh for sure. She's definitely the easiest.... but the hardest right now, haha
I just keep doing everything too early because I'm used to everyone else. You have like 10 hours to decide your AA when she jumps.

Took me like 2 years to realize Rufus said "America sheds a tear!"
Click to expand...
Well it just took me 6, hahaha. Didn't know until you said it. I always heard "America's Dead to Me!"
And I've been playing this dude since vanilla!

It really helps if you turn off music and sound effects.

There's so much stuff I started to hear in Marvel when I only had voices on.

Watching these videos makes me wonder if there's something wrong with my stick or just some trick to pulling this shit off that I simply don't know.

Even something as relatively simple as "Cancel HP into EX Messiah kick" just seems beyond me, no matter how much I try.

It's weird. It literally looks like you are playing underwater in the first match. Like, half speed everything for some reason.

I know what you mean. I wrote a comment about it in the description underneath the video. It's not Youtube though. I watched the video on my PS3 before uploading it and it was the same way. I uploaded it to see if it would be any different and it wasn't. Is this happening to anybody else today or recently? As for the match itself, it was actually a tad laggy, but we didn't play in slow motion like what you saw.

So does the YouTube upload thing even work? I get to the upload screen and then I get the error "The YouTube service is not available".
