3rd Strike General Discussion Thread

This has nothing to do with me lol.
Just general consensus of team results for players.

This x100. Like, fuck, I got far in a side tournament at EVO where the conditions weren’t favorable to most of the players and I had the most favorable bracket position of all of the players, not to mention all but one of the Japanese players having to exit early because of SF4 pools.

There’s a reason why they call them “one-hit wonders”. Didn’t do shit down the road.

Oh, OK.

I wish Lloyd would come to coop. It seems stupid to not come.

When is coop

I faced my first Necro today. He’s weird, man.

I gotta get used to that EX Overhead or whatever it is he does.

That’s not one of the things Necro does, it’s one of the things Artayes does. That move was officially banned by Kuroda’s mom in 1987.

What’s the best way to win the Urien matchup with Ibuki? I have a lot of trouble getting in on them and then I eventually get trapped in a corner, which then leads to Aegis mixups.

There’s a lot of stuff people could tell you so I won’t try to overload you.

Avoid getting cornered, approach with slide from time to time, learn to air parry spheres and headbutts, use Ibuki’s air chains as they’re good options for getting in and applying pressure, and if you get knocked down mid screen and he has meter, always tech roll (tap down when you get knocked down). If you have Urien cornered, try to avoid getting thrown back into the corner.

I would also suggest watching good players play that match up to see how each player uses their characters tools in the match up.

That move gets me tbh.
It’s unblockable I think.

It’s slow enough that you see it, you know what’s going on and you’re like ok lololol parry time and then somehow it hits.

There’s something really awkward about it that always throws me off.

It can be hard to block on reaction online. Same with Ibuki’s t.MK.

It might have the stricter anti-air parry timing like Remy’s CBK.

So wait, I randomly was watching this SBO video

and I see Kuroda’s Q vs Remy in Dudley’s Stage with Q’s theme playing. I thought in CPS3 Q always went to the opponents stage unless it was a mirror match? Someone tell me how this works, please. I have no doubt this has been asked before, but I tried google and it didn’t help, ok.

Event mode

That simple, huh? I guess I’ve never been to an event where a Q was first player, or I just wasn’t paying attention.

mov is in toronto right now and im on my computer instead of giving him a blowjob

what have i become

Don’t feel too bad Gaijinblaze. Quy and Ack were talking about getting a session together with MOV for the last few weeks but there wasn’t enough interest and organization to pull it together. Also venue fee for Canada Cup was too much for many of the guys who still play regularly in Toronto. :frowning:

So they added 3rd Strike Online to PlayStation Now.

Yep, add the one game that doesn’t feel right already since LCDs add a modicum of input delay, to a service that guarantees more input delay.

I don’t know whether to laugh or to cry.

You’re a big boy.

You can do both.

That said, legitimate question.

I’m in the office so I can’t test it right now but does anyone know if you can cancel srk to demon?

Just thought it might be crazy to see and I figure I should ask before it’s forgotten.
