It’s kinda weird that a lot of other Chun li players play Yang now. I’ve wanted to Yang to be in Super, so of course I’m going to play him too. I don’t plan on dropping Chun li for him, Chun li still seems like an overall better character than him. I’m not going to say that I won’t drop Chun li because I don’t know if I’m going to play Yang more when the DLC comes. What are your guys’ thoughts on Yang?

He’s the character I’ve been playing a lot when i play AE at Next Level. At first I was going to switch to Yang but he will be that second character for me along side Makoto. I thought in the long run since Chun-Li is a fundamental character, will be in future titles and she is good in every game even in AE It just made more sense for me to keep her as my main.

Yeppers I’ll be playing as Yang as well, haha. Kinda weird he’s always been cooler to me than Yun–guess its the hair.
Funny too that other Chun players are taking him up.

Chun of course is still my main :smiley:
I’m nowhere near as good with her as I want to be yet anyway.

Yang is kinda interesting but I think EVERYONE will be using the twins and the broken shoto’s so I’ve been putting time into Ibuki in a more serious manner than I have before cos she is soooooo much fun to use and in my area (at least) there aren’t loads of em about

Thigh Life, baby! Chun stays my main. I will sub Juri and Oni.

Chun Li all the way.
in AE i’ll try out the twins, especially Yun.
also i’m currently practicing some sakura, her combos are amazing, can do 380+ damage with no meter from a jump in anywhere in the screen.

I’ve played a few alts - Cammy, Ibuki, Rufus, Cody, Rose; None of which have the same kind of shenanigans and ‘fun-ness’ of Chun, bar, the exception of Ibuki. If anything, like Wii, I’ll spend some time with her in AE because she’s a lot of fun. I just refuse to jump on the twins bandwagon.

:slight_smile: Yeah mate Chun is my main for sure but I alt Sakura (who is crazy fun even if your not good with her… I fit into this category probably) but Ibuki is deffo gonna get a lot of time in AE, she never gets boring… However Chun is clearly always gonna be my main

No real Bandwagoning on my party. I never played 3rd Strike or Alpha 3 (hopefully A3 becomes DLC someday) so that is why Yun and Yang are appealing to me at first glance. Characters I’ve never had the chance to play with.

I love Ibuki! so Meeks–post more of your brother (Cypherion X) I’ve been learning from those vids.

BTW Meeks – Love the new Udon Comic layout of your page.

what???

That’s why I wanted Yun and Yang in Super along with the other newcomers

3s is good but a3 is nothing to get excited for, a2 is much better imo. you can play 3s and a2 on ggpo or supercade.

@Wii
You’d be amazed at the number of totally new players Vanilla has hauled. From here, quite a few anime game/Tekken converts in the mix as well.

re: SFA3
Not a fan of crouch cancels, V-ism, and Marvel-esque hilarity I see. :rofl: Yeah, it was pretty much V-ism or bust (save for characters like A-Guy, A-Gen, any-Dhalsim) etc at the highest. I do remember X-Chun being really good though, st. hp or c. hk anything that moves. :lol:

But I suppose A2 is more traditional/sound.

Haha!! Yeah sorry Wii, the last SF game I played before SF4 was Alpha 2 Gold on PS one (the 2 disc anniversary pack that came with Turbo I do believe) unless you want to count the Snk vs Capcom series.

A2 was awesome but again never had the chance to play A3.
As soon as PSN goes back online I’m going to download Alpha 2 though, I was about to do that the day before it all went down. BOOOO!

I never played the REAL A3. I played a shitty port, Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max or something like that, for PSP, which felt clumsy because 1.) I tried the PSP version after playing on a TE Stick, after which playing any fighting game on a pad feels stupid, 2.) Since the screen basically is ON the game-pad, it’s frustrating when you’re trying to execute complex motions like QCFx2 and essentially have to put up with the screen moving around, and 3.) Because Shin Akuma is so broken it almost doesn’t make sense to play using anyone else.

I played Alpha 2 on PSX, though I wasn’t serious about it, and I played 3S as part of the SFII Turbo Anniversary Edition, but gave it up once I realized the importance of parrying and how stupid I felt the whole concept of parrying was. I might go back to it now that I’m better at fighting games in general, but I still feel like the whole idea is messed up. Tap forward (i.e. do something traditionally unsafe) to take no damage? I dunno. :rofl:

Good combo execution overall nice chun.

I might* put up a replay I had with CrazyNeo’s Juri the other day. Unfortunately it was a one off in Ranked but dude is crazy good with Juri.

I’d venture to say he’s certainly got the Leg loop down pat. I can’t pull it off, I know how to do it but my fingers just won’t do it but maybe 2 out of 10 times. so I have to learn other methods to win like that c. LP s.LP s.HP - Super was nice!

That same guy has a channel and a video that shows how he does the loop. I can’t do it because its awkward on my fingers, gotta practice I guess.
