It looks like his emulator de-synced the playback. When I play those matches in FBA they look nothing like that. FWIW, I’m using the FBA that you get when you install GGPO(v0.2.96.74).
Dude!!! You’re my hero. I get hit by that shit all the time. I’m gonna start using MP more right away.
NO! your my hero!.. and Jchenor… OK and Eggo for making the HDR XBL list… but other than that… well ok… DJ beans too…
But, honestly I have many more little ninja tactics like that I was going to talk about in my blog. Nothing extremely revolutionary, but just enough give the average Sim player slight edges here an there during game situations.
With HDR and all the new things it brings (good and bad) to the table, and the general ambiguity of the ST scene right now, I haven’t been motivated to put it all out there.
Is there a good counter to j. hk from vega? I don’t think anything is more frustrating than having to sit there and block that while not being able to do anything about it. slide doesnt seem to work and neither does the chop or b. lk. The bullshit throw/c. mk mixup after j. hk is too fucking annoying.
Now is DB+MP preferred in all circumstances or just against Dict.?
Dict. and Blanka are two tough matches for me. I can handle most chun li’s now. Now that I know the spacing of her jumps but to me Blanka is different. Any good general strats? It seems like AAing Blanka is the hardest for me. I know the ground game I think, mostly fires + some st.Fierce.
Dict. seems like a winnable match but I just get nervous and make too many mistakes.
From far range, far cr. mp beats most of his jumps except late j. fierce. From medium range, db+lp is is the best. From close in, you’re going to have to do b+lk, take the trade, and then fb->st. hp to push him out
First time I tried to watch the matches, I had the same result - they were like children mashing… I thought something misterious was wrong, but today I tried again and the replays now seems like a real match of two very skilled players. The only thing I did in between (that I can remember) was downloading another ST rom (ssf2tu.zip) that I needed to play on 2DF. Maybe that’s the solution.
I recently played this guy who would get in close to me and continuously do jump+LK, land and do standing back LP, and then jump with LK, then land with LP or MP, and continue this over and over and over. And then Occasionally he would go in for the bite. I had the hardest time getting out of this with Dhalsim. It was so annoying. I know there as to be a way to counter this. Does this even make sense the way I described it? Any thoughts on how to counter?
If you know the pattern, then Upflame his next jump in, slide under it or just Teleport out of there.
Same here, why the hell does Dhalsim have the only half circle Super? Every other non-charged Super in the game is qcf x 2, I don’t understand why Dhalsim’s is hcb x 2. In classic ST it was completely invincible, so I understand why it should be harder to perform, but now it’s hittable and throwable. And no matter how slow or fast I perform it, with or without piano, I get it maybe every 2/5 attempts. Damn half circles. /rant
Are there any videos (downloads or youtube) of really high level dhalsim players for HD Remix(like Gian). I really appreciate the videos of Eggo and SweetJV btw.
Eggo, SJV, and Rambo are about as good as your gonna find online in terms of HDR Sim players right now. Cole does not play HDR Sim. Alex Wolfe doesn’t even play HDR. Shirts hasn’t been on for 60+ days (and doesn’t play HDR Sim).
Eggo, SJV, & Rambo are prime and excellent players. I couldn’t think of anybody else to look for who plays HDR Sim on XB as well as they do right now.
^^^^ Let me be more specific and requantify. I was in a rush last week, and most of what I wrote didn’t make any sense.
I am not saying SJV and Eggo are as good as your gonna get in the “world.” I am talking strictly to the fact they are some of the better XBL HDR Sim players.
So if Pacloc whats to watch some Sim players on XBL, it is not going to get any better than SVJ, Eggo, and John Rambo. Jason Cole doesn’t play much and Alex Wolfe is not on it.
Gian isn’t on XBL, Hakase isn’t on XBL, KKY isn’t on XBL, so none of the TOP Sim players in the world aren’t on HDR right now.
I have watched SVJ, Eggo, and John Rambo all play, all solid and fundamental.
