^^ damn man, sorry to hear that 
thanks to chow, miky, tony, and casey for coming down for the tournament, i had a blast!
@miky and casey: thanks for teaming up with me guys. i’m gonna practice alot of things, especially what me and miky talked about, so that next time i’m better prepared and become a better all around player.
Good to hear Javier. Oh and stop practicing on that HOTEL MONITOR!!! Lol did you get a hold of your roommates CRT?
yea i did! even though its small i’m able to hook up my ps3 to it, so i’m gonna be practicing on that from now on 
LOL that hotel monitor was garbage, and eff Hugo for ruining our training time and making $5 off lag…but I guess it’s ok cause it was Tony’s $5
Lols.
Miky, instead of trying to catch them focusing your fireballs, you should train them to do it. If you notice they block two fireballs and focus the third every time you throw three fireballs, next time do two fireballs and one EX.
Your reasoning for doing EX’s isn’t wrong, you’re just not doing it as part of a conditioned reaction but instead, doing it as a “I think he’ll focus this… [EX Hado]”.
The srk lol thread gets no love ;__;
@Mike - Yea I completely understand what you mean. I was doing part conditioning and part guessing (in other words, making a pattern in my game play). Like you said, I do need to be conditioning my opponent and reacting more instead of predicting or guessing. It was a huge factor in my poor meter management.
I still don’t really see the point, though. Instead of burning that bar, you could low forward xx srk, which builds more meter and does more damage. It’s more difficult and requires better reactions, but the payoff is too huge to overlook, imo.
This is, of course, coming from a guy who plays a character whose only escape requires bar, so meter management has always been a big thing for me.
@Chow - Don’t get me wrong I was thinking that as well. Like I said, you were giving me advice on meter management while Mike was giving me advice on conditioning and reacting. That leads me to work on my footsies to better both.
I was planning to do a writeup on warzone while I was at work today, but I ended up having a lot of work to do for once. For now, I would like to present a small guide to beat my abel:
Don’t press laggy buttons ever.
My offense against all of you is generated entirely by me either counter poking, rolling, or FA’ing through moves. The easiest way to win is to simply stand outside of step kick range and react to what I do. If I walk in, stick out a jab. Throw me if I roll, AA if I jump. Abel literally has no safe answer for this, as anyone who watched me play PR rog saw.
Abel loses to pressure, but only at certain times. If you’re sticking out a move, make sure you’re in range to hit me, otherwise you’ll eat a st. short or worse. Don’t jump if i’m not knocked down, you all know what happens.
Don’t try to do SRK FADC on my wakeup. If i’m not blocking, i’m EX rolling so thats just wasting meter that you need to keep me honest when I try to mix you up.
I’ll do how to not lose to my Abel later. What I just typed took me about 5 minutes, mostly because I was watching SC2 videos while I did it. You chumps should try it too.
I get what you’re saying, but that’s more useful when you’re up close, in which case, Miky shouldn’t be throwing fireballs from that range anyway. If you’re close enough to do c.mk xx Shoryu, you shouldn’t be throwing projectiles, but rather putting that footsie shit into work.
But when you’re at a range where they can’t really do anything but block, focus, jump up or forward (in which case you could Shoryu him in the face), burning that EX and hitting him after conditioning would lead to an overall advantage on his part if he can maintain it.
But chances are, his free-ness takes over and he loses.
This probably explains why i’m so bad with fireballs, but I learned most of my fireballs usage from 3rd strike playing Ryu. Rather than a long range weapon, I used EX hadou as a major tool for mid-range footsies. When you use it from JUST outside their poking range, it’s really no different from a low forward. To me, that’s always been the most important role of the fireball.
It can be used as a mid-range footsie tool too, don’t get me wrong, but like I said, if you’re close enough to low forward, you’re too close to fireball.
Anyone with fast enough reactions, at that low forward range, would throw out something that would either CH you, or if you were holding d/b, make you block. It will probably be something safe too.
I get where you both are coming from. I’m sure it’s better to cr.Forward xx SRK on people who are focusing me in footsies range, but I haven’t implemented that reaction into my play style. I’m used to punishing people who focus on me in footsies range with f.Fierce. I’ll work on this though. Thanks for the analytical advice from all.
Some of my weak points are:
There are some other things I can’t think of that other people notice. Any opinions welcome.
Play better :lovin:
Any plans for a session this week or weekend?
Sounds like you guys are looking for some practice, and what better way to practice than by having a session lol
Play more. 
You’re MIA every time :(.
PS: Balrog is too much for me. All his normals beat mine. Even Bison’s golden 3 frame short gets beat by stuff like c.MK. q_q
May 29 and 30th, NCR. Start requesting days off/doing homework in advance, i’d like to have as good of a showing as we had last time. There’s even a 3v3 for Super, according to John Choi’s roommate.
Love what’s going on here… keep it going guys :tup:
Indeed. We SRS.
