Damn I haven’t touched SSF4 in a while.
Who are you? No offense, but I doubt you’ve played the best players in the community.
And yes, Zak is a huge fraud :D.
I’m free the next couple of days if you wanna have some matches.
Calgary has a bunch of strong theory fighters, really. I basically don’t even play the game seriously anymore, I just theory fight. Mike M and Daniel also immediately come to mind as people who have really studied the game. There are probably others that are just as good as us that aren’t coming to mind right now. Cody did commentary at Canada Cup and explained things about the game that JC and UD didn’t seem to know for some reason, lol.
Basically, saying Calgary has weak theory fighters is pretty off base. Some of us are also pretty good at the actual game, too.
I dunno if it’s my old arcade mentallity, but I never really understood the whole theory figher thing.
I always prefered to grind things out in actual matches and figure stuff out that way rather than read numbers and data and assume it works.
Peter! Your money match against Momochi is up on crosscounter!

Peter did a really good job in this fight, the only thing i see him doing wrong is random shoryukens when he doesnt have to, but obviously DP beats counter hit setups, but all in all good Job Peter!
P.S. the double dash in the corner is not a cross up if he uses that elbow but if he uses Jumping Forward, that is a crossup!
You can actually completely avoid the jump fierce setup just by crouching and NOT blocking (blocking makes your hitbox wider and that’s why you get hit).
Good luck telling your hands to not block, though!
coolz! thanks for the headsup rickster :lol:
CCG Peter? ahhaha
i just watched a bit of it since im at work but man im a scrub ahha. one thing i noticed is that momochi is very good at AAing cross jumps. most people are only good at AAing frontal attacks.
on a more winning note, i made front page again
Lol, ure too pro man.
Ure the best.
Sorry our scene doesn’t meet ur standards of competition…
Zak is NO fraud!!
Last night, I was too drunk. Oh man.
yeah sanger i was wasted last night too. good times man
that dude did not wanna mess with the wolfpack haha. he was all gangsta until we all showed up ahhaha so funny when people talk big.
Man, dickens area is so heat. Cops And hoodlums everywhere~
The Gang Suppression Unit is allllways at Dickens. You’d think the Warhammer players would be fearful…
I used to like theory fighter when I thought FG theory was worth something. and it is, if you want to do commentary. if you are just playing no point in spending much time with it.
ppl like to compare FGs to chess but that is a huge disservice to chess. if FGs were actually like chess theory would be good for a lot more… but they are more like checkers
you guys shouldn’t be so sensitive when someone is pointing out a flaw with our community. its well known that we as a whole here still play by feel and not with much research. its getting better for sure, but the number of people who posess really deep theory knowledge is pretty limited. This might be due to a lot of people not caring about competition, and who just want to fuck around, and the effect that has on people who do care. Obviously if you want to be the best you will learn as much as you can, but after 2 years if the same stuff you’ve been doing still works, complacancy can kick in and stop your drive to learn on the whole. That, and the sf4 series is now almost 4 years old, so interest is waning a bit
although that is a weak excuse, those of us who pride ourselves on being good should definetely read some more - knowledge is power. This happens naturally when a new game comes out and we’re learning everything(i personally learn like 20 new things every time i play kof with the crew), and drops off after the game becomes stale. those of us who want to compete should take his advice and educate ourselves. the best way to get out of unfavorable situations is always to avoid them, and with game knowledge you can see them coming and nip it in the bud
my 2c anyways
edit
plus nothing he said was incorrect, criticism is good. zakk probably knows his only setup is that anyways hahaha
Everyone just needs to mash harder.
Agreed Foger.
Knowledge is so important. I agree, but I think experience, application, and state of mind is just as important.
Someone needs to do some more theory fight against Jamie and take him out.
Wish it was that simple simple…
But straight up, like anywhere else in life, prove urself before u start talkin.
Talkin is easy.
I have much respect and love of our scene. But to say our scene just play by instinct and muscle memory? So what… @ tubby dog destroy everyone and we’ll listen.
Wolves r hungry, beat us and the wolves will listen to the alpha.
Ggs last night everyone. I think I will start applying a really annoying more of less philosophy. Your salt powers my yoga!
Time to become lamer than Brian. Maw ha ha haha
you gotta prove yourself before you can give advice. yeah its ignorant but im not gonna listen to anybody giving me advice until they prove they know what they’re talking about.
Truth froger. Im the weakest cgy player cause i dont research or practice as much as i should. I know this and accept it.
