i was first called cheap [or at least that i remember] was for simply picking chun li in 3rd strike… o.O before the fight started. as soon as i picked chun li… “OMFG WTF UR SO F___ING CHEAP!!!”
Using old sagat fireball patterns on ssf2x
I wonder who called Yun cheap first. We know someone did…or he hears voices in his head.
The first time I was called cheap was when I played Momoko in kof XI when nobody knew how to play against her.
Random game, but I used to play Gundam Battle Assault 2, because we couldn’t find most of the fighting games that I could get today.
Anyway, I used Death Scythe against him, and I found a bunch of unblockable strings and I came up with a bunch of traps and combos into supers. Once I got him with his qcf+light attack, he’d be locked down and I’d do continuous strings taking off like 80-95% damage, most of the time, not allowing him to move. We stopped playing the game after about a month, and I was called a cheap ass. LOL it would be cheaper if you could grab.

Back when I was 3 and whaling on my dad with Ryu’s jump-in HK in SF2: CE for the Sega Genesis. I always beat his jump in with that thing.
First time i remember was back in CE when i was a kid, with bison i just kept flying up and back across the screen heh.

cries cuz he uses a pad Joysticks are harrrd!
Joysticks are easy, they are just inferior. I only need to move my thumb about 4 pixels to go from back to forward. You need to move your hand 10 pixels to do that on a stick.
Quadruple the ammount of pixels if you were drawn by arc systems.
The first time I was called cheap was on SF2 in the arcade at the end of the pier where I used to go on holiday when I was younger. Guy called me cheap because I kept jumping over his crouch Tiger Shots, getting close and landing a combo or throw.
The most times I’ve been called cheap in one session is on Tekken 3 in the arcade using Hwoarang.
I’m still amazed that, no matter how much you mix up your game, people will still call you cheap just because you kicked their ass.
Yeah, I’m just now starting to use an arcade stick over a control pad…it’s slow goin’ to say the least.
Joysticks are superior to control pads in every way. The greatest D-pad doesn’t beat a decent stick. There’s no symmetry to the way a D-pad operates, and it fucks with the tendons in your hand–which a stick does not.
Most people who prefer gamepads over sticks are the ones who started out on a pad and never took the time to learn a stick. Pity, that.
i run both…
i was called cheap once when i was playing xmen vs. sf and i ran away with storm all day…
ive been called cheap for parrying to much…pretty lame i think. I also have a friend who is really cheap though…hes often regarded as one no matter who he plays heh.
when me and another guy were playing super smash bros and i won becuase I was using Kirby and Kirby sucked him up and jumped off the level with him in his mouth.
You sir sound like my friend who developed a 15 hit combo for Gundam Battle Assualt
1 with old school gundam. Was called cheap for finsihing of kids in Bloody Roar 2-3 with Uriko without letting them hit the floor and stomping on kids with Chars gundam in GBA 1. Good times…
after I chipped Noraj to death with Ibuki’s SA1 numerous times
This has got to be the most hillarious thing. I was called cheap today for OCV’ing this one guy with K-Yuri (R-1) in CvS2. He was using C-Ryu, Akuma, Ken.
this was way back in elementary school, and i was playing mvc2 at my local 7eleven. i think it was my 2nd day playing, and i discovered this amazing thing called an “air combo” with strider. i aparently beat a 19ish year old, and he called me a cheater. he said something along the lines of “i can’t believe you did a combo in the air… fucking cheater.”
even though i was young, i knew that dude was a complete idiot.
