Too bad I only used her properly for about half of the first round against blitz. Had him on the ropes, but then I just laid off for some reason, and stayed that way the rest of the match. Stupid.

Chun Li is awesome. She and Cammy fight over me in my master bedroom.

My execution isn't good enough yet where I am as good as you. I am hoping that will change when I get my stick.
Not saying a stick will make you better mind you, but the majority of my fighting game experience has been at arcades, so it might make ME better. More familiar, you see. |

Yeah you wanna impress yourself, but I like to look for opponent's actions with as much anticipation. Like with Chun Li all I want is for you to jump at me and I will beat you with her HP 2peice and set up Kikosho or EX Bird Kick, but people won't just do what you want. So you either need CPU on expert kind of psychic reflexes or you influence the fucker to jump, which can be done many ways.
Most of the attacks you do should be bullshit feints waiting for mistakes, if you're facing a bright lad anyway. Some people can be eaten alive by routine attacks, not worth the forethought. Then you got guys like Drak or RoXer who wisely cover up character weaknesses and the mind games expand. Overall, however, SF4's DNA still ebbs toward execution rather than mindgames; so Soulcalibur is more attuned to my competitive beliefs (Yomi, shit like that). It helps that SSF4 is balanced as all hell, which is why we all got so evenly skilled in a short period of time with our own characters. But yeah, we need to stop looking for self gratifying set-ups. Got me killed too much. |

Yeah, definitely better at Tekken. Not so reliant on execution, and more on anticipating on what your opponent will do next.
VERRRRRY dissapointed with how far my tekken skills have fallen btw. Used to be as good at Tekken 5 as Khuntry is at SSF4. Now I'm a scrub again. |

But really; Tekken 5 > Tekken 6. Juggling got out of hand for my tastes.

Well, you have to try and avoid getting caught with your opponent's pop up attacks. Anticipation. That's why I like Dragunov. Parry most pop ups into an arm breasker. BOOM. There goes the dynamite.

A lot of moves juggle you, though. The rewards for good reading is significantly less than the reward for dialing in a lengthy combo in Tekken 6.

When MvC3 comes out we should get a tourney going, since it's a fighting game I'll actually buy.
I only have PS3 though, and I will probably get my ass kicked by all of you guys but I will be a good sport about it. |

We're mostly on XB360. I had a theme for how an MvC3 TPWW tourny should work that ties with the game's premise before scrapping it. Don't know if a tourny will happen.

Anyone who's good with a speed character like Guy, Cammy or Ibuki is really good in general, since you need perfect timing to be any good with those characters. Plus your Guy is pretty good, though your Ken and Ibuki are better, IMO.

I'm talking Kiryu Tsukimiya (youtube him) good. Honestly, my BP with Guy is only so high because no one uses him online so no one knows the matchup. And even then I'd say I win no more than 50% of my matches with him.
Quote:
I really want to make my Guy into more of a rushdown threat. I tend to play runaway with him, relying on the Bushin Flip far too much. That's gonna be nerfed when the arcade update hits consoles, so I can't rely too much on it. I need to start incorporating Hozanto and related combos more. I'm a pretty mediocre player altogether. I rely far too much on specials. Focus attacks have only recently become part of my game. I don't combo that much. I hit and run. Still wake up super/ultra way too much. Still jump in too much. I have a lot of bad habits I want to kick, and I figure the easiest way to do it is to focus on one or two characters for the moment. |

Though I did recently experiment with Chun and I think she has potential. Might pick her up a little.

Well, your Ken is pretty god damned aggressive. Completely smoked my Bison. Even when I beat him with T Hawk, it was pretty difficult.
Speaking of T Hawk, I took him online again a while ago, and everyone seems to know the game a lot better. I'm still winning, but people are spamming jumps to try and make me whiff. Just wanna be like "I play T Hawk, niggas. I control the skies." all the time. Makes me think a lot of people have picked him up. |

I thought it was me. When I was Seth against Abel, just at the end of the match my game froze and then started up again really laggy and I was KO'd.
Watching you guys fight, I was a whole round behind in spectator mode because of lag. When I was Zangief and fighting you, it wasn't as bad but it was still there. That's why I kept jumping backwards and kneeing thin air. I was trying to grab and it was all out of time/sync etc so it ended up as jumps. When RoXer was about to win with Gens bicycle kick combo, It slowed down to a crawl for me and then just disconnected me completely and sent me to the menu screen. I spoke to my brother and he couldn't get an internet connection at all the night before. Someone else I spoke to said their internet connect was really slow yesterday aswell so I thought maybe there was a local problem at my side. |

It was you. Once you left, we didn't have any problems.
What funky was talking about was the end of our series of matches. My xbox lost the connection to the internet for some reason. |

Dunno what happened. Lost 5-1. Should have won at least 2. Fucked up a lot.
DRAKUL/BLITZ: What is the deal? Are you guys going to finish the 3-2 match you started? Or start a new one? |
