Not playing much AE outside of tournaments.
mostly focusing on skullgirls at the moment. I am good at sfxt with minimal effort so I haven’t been grinding it hard.
Annoyed by SFxT, still playing AE.
Sold SfxT, got KoF, still play ae.
Gave up on SFxT. Might play again after a patch or something. Still playing AE. There’s some new tech I wanna try out involving meaty level one FAs with different chars.
Also playing Skullgirls and ST. Started messing around with Vsav. Got a tourney coming up and I’m entered into AE, SFxT, KOFXIII, SCV UMvc3 and T6. I don’t feel like training up in any of those games -_-
I am an advocate of the piano method, but it took me a ton of practice to be able to do it as well as I can now.
I just play SSF4:AE 2012 and UMvC3 right now. Bought Skullgirls and want to get into it but just don’t have time right now. I don’t like SFxT at all, and neither does anyone else in my scene except for like two people.
Yeah I stopped playing sfxt too, been on mass effect3 but tbh that’s kinda boring too
sfxt is pretty great. but it’s also pretty stupid. so many things need to be fixed before it can be taken seriously. but the game has an excellent base to be successful.
that beingt said i really haven’t played much of anything seriously. I was playing cammy and fei on ranked and dropped PP. I might decide to care and try to get to 5kpp or something.
right now the games i’m having fun with are mvc3 and kof. who knows how long that will last. Honestly sfxt being so eh has deflated me. I am excited for TTT2 though lol.
Should be some good Taku footage coming from this 5v5 tournament in Kyoto.
just played through deadly premonition! that game is totally awesome while being trashy
In blockstrings, what catches you out and why? Which character? Is there something you’re doing wrong? Blocked Ryu Neutral jump HK, cr.mp, cr.mp, cr.mk xx ex.fb. I’m waiting for the overhead, eat cr.mk xx ex.fb. Sorry, I seem to have Cody down, but Ryu’s in my local are always updating. Expect: Focus my slide, dash, double-hit st.fp, cs.fp xx hp.srk… nope… they’ve changed it up into tick, tick, throw… or nj.fp, st.fp xx hk.tatsu. Fuck fashion. Grrr…
why are you blocking ryu neutral jumps
The only excuse I can think of is a slow connect. Soz.
Ves, there are a few different styles of skilled Ryus. Not everyone flowcharts at 4k.
I shouldn’t be playing online though, I have a shared connect. It sucks; therefore I do.
I seriously don’t know why I bother… errrr, maybe because most of Ireland has moved to Montreal or Sydney? Offline here consists of Umvc3, MK9, SKgurls, other fag games…
what are you talking about?
Ryus here used to play one way here; they are changing up though. I used to know how to deal with 3k+ ryus, but something has happened. Maybe AE has let loose a new style? Extra frames of inv on hp.srk, they seem to get away with more mashing. Quit being so periodical for once eh?
Let me phrase this in another way. what situations can ryu put you in where you are forced to block his neutral jumps?
I was playing a Ryu today and he was sweep, dash, whiff cr.mp, empty NJing when I was meterless. It looked like the Akuma safe jump but neutral. I will need to go back and look, sorry for calling you up. But it was killing me with hp.srk. Also, I noticed a lot of times I’d go for a j.hk, cs.mp, st.lp xx and they’d get a srk out more than usual too. :-/ Maybe I’m getting slower, crap in my old age.
What method do you guys use to plink Ultra 1, if you plink it at all? I’m struggling to find a method that is ergonomic.
4th button on 2nd row PPP plink to hk. Use my middle and index fingers. you can see how easy it comes out on input display.
Still lookin’ for hitbox data.
