I think we can all agree that a great many of us have played a few rounds of Street Fighter after a night of drinking or after you smoke a joint/bowl/whatever (unless all those guys I play on live named xxxxxxx420 are liars). What I wanna know, is do you play differently? Different characters? Different strategies? Do you avoid ranked/championship?
btw, drunken blanka is FUN. I swear, I get nearly telepathic with that fuzzball after a night of binge drinking
420 is a stoner thing. I believe it was first implimented because Marley died on April 20th? I think anyways… nonetheless, it’s a stoner thing and the general “time to get high” time of the day.
i used to play after a smoke but not really anymore. my title is still ‘half baked’ because there isnt really anything else that suits me. i used to play better i think but its hard to judge when everything just seems better anyway
I only play HD Remix after tossing several back! I play SF4 pretty bad already and playing it drunk just makes it seem funny! If anyone ever plays me on a Saturday night after 11pm Central time, then I am wasted beyond words.
I used to play a lot of mvc2 and ggx drunk, shit was a blast. There are even a few vids on youtube with me playing drunk out my mind. Haven’t played any drunken sf4 yet.
SF actually feels slow to me when I’m playing high. I analyze the situation a lot more…and I become a lot more creative. The first time I did crossup mk.lp.hp hhs fadc ochio was when i was high…haha
Hm, know exactly what you’re talking about jhonsok . I’ll enter another zone when I’m playing high. My hands/fingers get looser and I’ll start pulling combo variations on the fly. The only bad part about getting zoned out is that I forget that the controller is in my hands and usually struck in awe at some of the combos coming out.
And when I do remember, I’ll end up going into a completely klutz mentality.
Cant say i ever played drunk, but i played my cousin who gets piss drunk. Yet he is by far the worst player ever when it comes to SF, yes when he gets blasted hes a decent player cause neither of us know what the hell he is gonna do next.
I play far worse when I’m high or shitfaced drunk. I play mostly at night, and always smoke at night so that kind of sucks…but I’ll live with it :wgrin:
I play better with a little beer in me though… just enough to get that buzz where you aren’t thinking and just react
I think SF is kind of like pool as far as drinking goes. 1, 2, 3 beers usually helps me out a bit. Just enough that I quit worrying so much, but not enough that I’m actually impaired.
Not even close. It was a group of college kids that met every day after class on a stoop to smoke. Their classes ended at 4:20. Turned into a code they’d use on the phone or in letters and just spread.
