GGs to everyone on saturday, I wanted to see if you guys could give me some feedback or ideas for my marvel team (Hulk/Haggard/Thor) I’m still not sure which assists to use and what order to pick for my characters, hopefully I’ll get more practice next weekend. BTW get hype for MK9.
@DKL just use cyrax babality in player matches or the arcade it gets you like 500 koins I think
@BartStation hey man, would it be cool if I take my TE so you can dual mod it this weekend
Shoutouts to MK9… Haibing, DKL and I were just laughing our asses off after playing the game…
Also, your place is foggy as hell at night DKL… I didn’t realize I passed your house until we reached the dead end XD
@unseen I can take your TE, but it would be a while before I dual mod. I dont have the pcbs, you can provide them and just pay for labor or you can just pay me and Ill buy everything. Just pm me.
Now im finally done with stupid busy schedules. HAHA. So I can have people over for Marvel/GG/KOF/3s/SF4 tomorrow. Just pm me.
Time to finish modding sticks now haha.
I don’t get salty ever because I think practice means perfection, but this guy just talks mad mad shit and he isn’t even good. I played this guy in Mvc3 and beat him 5-0 and he raged so hard, I would like to beat him so bad that he would do the same and pull out his SSF4 CD and break it in half.
We can do some theory training because I don’t think he’s really willing to come cause he’s so lazy haha. What kind of play style is his Akuma? Does he have a decent vortex going on or is he playing closer to how a Ryu should?
I’m still sick as hell and barely did any playing today x__x. Just went home and lied down.
The Air blog pretty much covers any and more advice I would give. If you’re playing footsies just watch out for c.HK and st.HK. Don’t get too happy throwing out c.MK or he might counter sweep then you’ll have to guess those ambiguous crossups. Akuma’s whole game is knocking you down the putting you in the vortex, his sweep is one of the simplest tools to achieve this.
A lot of the times it’s just better to walk forward/walk back and block. If he spams air FB try to dash under and punish. Also, seriously sometimes it’s just a good idea to mash EX shoryu because it ruins momentum and Akuma has no life.
I’d help you practice but my safejump timing is off and I drop basic links. Take my advice with a grain of salt since I haven’t played Super since the month it came out, and I never practice SF4 -__-. I played a bit with Richard Nguyen though, who is one of the best Akumas in SoCal. Air’s a top Ryu player also, so read that shit like the scripture.
Execution in the game is a little weird… there’s a combination of hitting buttons at the correct time in a juggle and then doing shit REALLY REALLY REALLY fast.
The thing I’m having a hard time grasping right now is cancelling normals into special moves (the part where I do 1,2 into B,F 1 for cancelling normals into gunshot)… it just feels weird having to do the command fast, but I’ll hopefully get used to it over time (assuming we still play this like a few weeks from now).
In this game, you can cancel a forward dash into a normal… for now, this is problematic for me since I’m working too fast during this part of the combo and I end up whiffing/missing the juggle.
Anyway, yeah… combo system is pretty much reliant on getting some kind of juggle going, from what it looks like.
Anyone interested in gamesharing Arcana Hearts 3 for the PS3? Comes out to $6 a share for 5 people (or $7.50/for 4 people, or $10/3 people). I bought a $10 psn card along with mk9 today at best buy. I can PM the redeem code to whoever wants to be host and set up the account. If no one’s interested, it’s cool.
I apologize to the awesome people I play with but since I’m still sick unless I have a full recovery by Thursday I won’t be hosting on Friday this week, and only if I make a large portion of a recovery on Friday should I be able to make it on Saturday.
