Oh ssb knocks down on hit now. EX doesn’t push back anymore. f.hp seems the same. Oh c.hk is fast.
EDIT: Aye…c.mp xx EX mgb= GODLIKE
Yeah…I don’t like KD on normal bsb’s. That totally screws up my flow and changes potential frame advantage…because now they can srk or throw over anything I can do when they get back up as opposed to people trying stupid crap after a normal bsb…which leads to more damage. Also means you probably can’t combo after bsb’s either…though I guess without stocked bars it doesn’t really matter…except you should’ve been able ot FADC the move into more damage…
Not liking that change at all.
Faster cr. RH is funny though. Doesn’t make up for it imo…but oh well.
EDIT: I don’t know if you’ll be able to follow up with anything after ex MGB…It always seems like it launches them to low, and they fall too fast for a ducking>anything to come out and hit them…and definitely too fast for a walk up follow up too.
You didn’t think about gief on knockdown. Its a blessing to have gief on his ass. Really anyone with no reversal.
Aye you should have giving all the ghosts funny “awww shit” faces. That would have been godlike. lol
Yeah you’re right…ex backswing was great vs. Hugo…but if you played it right he only had half life by the time he got in range to do damage in the first place, and then he still had to take risks vs. you. I can see the Gief matchup playing out a lot like that too, as long as you can bait command throws with backswing effectively…
But then Gief is just stupid in SF4. If Hugo had half of Gief’s nonsense he’d be high tier in 3rd…we’ll see how it plays out though. I still like Dudley vs. grapplers a lot, and backswing KND will help out more, but take away from other matchups.
Yeah, I was going to say comparing Hugo to Gief is like :psyduck: but we don’t have him on srk.
Actually thats a good idea.
…yeah, you beat me to posting it. lol.
Dudley = Deadly
Hmm they made Dudley brain dead now that I look at it. Easy mode combos with big damage.
well now hopefully the midwest powers up. Considering the midwest is basically low tier compared to other regions.
God damn I just watched that Dudley vid he’s like combo-city.
So looks like the majority of my Makoto game has been dismantled. Still looks good, but I have some unanswered questions. short>kara still work? can I play any mixup after hayate, or am I back to a neutral situation unless I super>ultra? Is the toastmaster completely useless now?
Also, Kool Aid milkshakes at steak and shake.
Kool-Aid milkshakes? My black ass might have to try that out and see if they can actually MAKE good Kool-Aid. Mmm…Kool-Aid…
Everything he did was the best possible situation for Dudley…and only if opponents can’t block properly. Comboing out of target combos doesn’t appeal that much to me, mostly because the timing looks too strict, when you can just get about the same damage from RH>>whatever you want.
FP combos, you could do those in 3rd too, but the timing was too strict to ever bother or be worth it.
I need to see Dudley in action against someone who knows what their doing, and not just showcases. Yeah, his offense was going to be good, but I need to see what tools he has to deal with the way SF4 works. What moves will get beat out by priority, how hard will it be to get in, his overall life bar, stuff like that before I can decide.
He has combos. He always had combos. They gave him some more with target combo stuff…but there was only ever one worthwhile target combo to use to begin with and the timing to special off of those looks just as stupid as doing any FP combo links. Nice for combo vids…not as nice for in match play.
Just comes down to having to play him myself now.
So anyone watching God’s Garden? I have a feeling Tokido is on point…he just may take out the massive Sagat army because he is owning the shit out of tiger knee right now! Mago was just knocked out of his losers bracket.
::EDIT:: …and Tokido likes running the clock. lol.
I was watching earlier today before I had to go to a dodgeball tournament (seriously, I did), and just as an observation I was surprised they were playing on 360.

This is a thread about a petition to make SFIV part of the MLG Pro Circuit, now I’m not saying you should go and sign it, but I was just wondering what everyone’s thoughts on the matter were.
I’m pretty indifferent about it, there’s good and bad that would come from it but I don’t see it being a major hindrance to the community, it’s not like there still won’t be other tournaments anyways.
Personally I don’t care, I’m not a top player who could get the monetary gain from SF4 being mainstream. In their interests I’m sure it’s a good thing, and it gets some more exposure of the community to a wider audience.
The FGC is very self-reliant and pretty close knit, and I don’t think any majors or regional events will ever be replaced.
