Good players you've come across

Ah, then you need to play Jiggly. That dude has an AMAZING T-Hawk! I’m talk’in grab you by the neck amazing! Just don’t get into a discussion about T-Hawk’s dives cause then your ask’in for trouble! :wink:

Lol, thanks everyone. I try.

Gief Vs. Hawk is totally even IMO. I would say if anyone had an advantage it would be Gief due to his throw range being longer, but if Hawk can guess right and DP out it won’t even matter.

But then again, after seeing Lieut Dan rape Jodim, maybe the fight is in Hawks favor. :stuck_out_tongue:

I feel in theory that the match is slightly in Hawk’s favour. SPD’s extra range is a big advantage only if it’s not neutralised. I think Hawk’s normals are better and his DP allows for better mix-ups.

Saying all this, I too have yet to fight a Hawk that beats me silly but I’ve not played this Lieut Dan guy.

GG’s to you too. That matchup is verry tough for Chun to keep Hawk out since he can get in so quickly So I have to pull out all the stops to keep him at bay lol I’ve learned a few tricks but tricks will only keep him out for so long. It seems like it’s only a matter of time before he gets in and smothers me lol But thanks for the mention :smiley:

Just wanted to say props to all the good players that wandered into our player match room last night. Good people, great skill and good times!

Hey voltech, thanks for the sound beating earlier (I was Fei - zirconst.) One of my buddies plays Chun, but not like that! I’d love to throw down in some player matches sometime too. I think I’m off my game tonight (3-14 with lots of frustrating execution losses.)

Further proof that T.Hawk is indeed awesome.

Plus for those who have seen the Jodim vs. Lt. Dan replay from GGPO = Hawk > Zangief.

What’s weird is despite these results in the matchup (these are the only vids I have of Japan tourney play, if someone has more please link em), we still get these for Rank Charts:

What?
Zangief ADVANTAGE?!

That looked like Zangief took a major a** pounding to me:
Hawk: 9
Zangief: 0

Rounds breakdown we get:
Hawk: 18
Zangief: 3 (props to Nogyo and Pony for even squeezing out rounds)

angel killah: good chun li player. I played yesterday in ranked and he came back from 2 rounds down to win. Played very intelligently and used a combination of feigns, skill and tricks win.

well played dude, I was impressed.

GGs, Coth. I seriously thought I had a solid strategy to get around your fireballs. Didn’t really pan out so I had to rely on pushing you into the corner or good old float fierce. I did notice I managed to tag you once or twice with diagonal jump fierce. I wish I had been paying attention to how far away I was, though. Luckily I can probably do that in practice mode.

@Shari: Last night was awesome. You really gave me homework to do with those crossup walldives, I couldn’t figure out how to stop them. I really enjoyed messing around with the different characters a lot - your Bison is actually pretty solid. GGs man

Man i got handel last night (even though i stop playing HDR) but, " LADY GAMBIT " plays a wicked BISON and CHUN man i just could not beat her chun last night and that bison was just as good as mine if not better then it.

For a moment i thought that it was not a girl until she starting talking and, tell me strats and new combos she way cool got to play her again…REVENGE…

truapoc, where you at?

What’s up, Jason? As ever, your Claw is great (LOVE that flip escape that you were doing after a blocked flip kick) and your Boxer is GDLK. Always nice to run into another old schooler, especially one as skilled as yourself.

Looking forward to learning more from you, man. I always admired your skills (e.g. [media=youtube]Udd5NLNZi0U, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGW941RcqIk, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8RnYrBQ3AA[/media]), your ballsy style of play (never boring), and your great sense of humor.

Fighting you is an honor. Peace!

Yeah, i was shocked when I ran into truapoc on ranked. I’d never met him or played him before, but I knew the name. That guy is really awesome.

GGs was lots of fun trying out different characters.

just wanted to give props to some players I’ve run into recently. supernyc1, good games man. maybe now you’ll cower in fear over my vega haha. but your honda is solid, and all i have to do slip up now and then, and you pwn me. bastard. and props to zedd, good chun player! had fun listening to you call vega’s claw a “fork” lol.

shari…I heard you were making DGV look like an ametuer with your vega…can this be true?

Not really.

We were both in a room and i won 3 matches in a row against him then we went into a 2 player room and played for a while.

Think it ended at something like 16-8 in his favor not counting the initial room.

So i didn’t do all that bad but far from me even winning much less making him look like an amateur.

Don’t believe the hype :sweat: (around me that is believe the hype about DGV)

Hmmm, I ran into Truapoc on ranked too - can’t remember who won though. I would guess if he’s a player of some renown - he probably did. I do remember thinking he was good - does he play one of the ‘big guys’ ?
