I’m no stranger to SF or competitive gaming. I tried getting serious at (S)SF4 but I haven’t been able to adapt to the changes from the older SF games. I’m hoping that with the Lee Twins, I’ll be able to enjoy the game more. BTW that PSN tag is my friend’s, I just share it with him.

My main is Rose, Yang would be my second Main. Also would like to have Sakura, Makoto and maybe T-Hawk in the wings.

NicholleSoft (PSN)

Level of Play: (Example: High Level)

Low: Just getting back into the Street Fighter scene through SSFIV, haven’t played a game since SSFII Turbo HD was released on PSN.

Why did you choose yang?

Because I like his moves and I feel that I could learn a lot about the game by playing as him. Also I like his style.

What you hope to achieve?

I want to achieve a level of play that is considered high level/competitive play. I will dedicate hours of time per day to practice or spar with others. My goal is to be a competitive player, I was inspired by the women’s invitational tournament during EVO 2010 and after seeing BurnYourBra I wanted to get back into the game and take it seriously as I do Tekken. I have a tumblr below that I am devoting to my chronicling of my journey to be a competitive player.

What other characters do you play? (Will be great for learning match-ups)

I mained Juri/Rose in SSFIV, but I also periodically played as Ibuki/Cody/Guy

Good luck to you all!

And may the spirits guide you as well

Guess I’ll post up here too

I guess I’m “high-low” to a mid-level player. I don’t know. lol. I haven’t placed high in majors, nor have I done really well at most locals with really good players. But I’ve place top 8 at a few locals at my school…if that means anything. lol

Why did you choose yang?

*Just to get good and compete at a high level. *

What other characters do you play? (Will be great for learning match-ups)

*I main Dictator. I do play Makoto/Balrog/Chun-Li for fun. I like charge characters =)

What other characters do you play?
I mained Adon after being shown the light by Gamerbee. Before that, I mained Abel in Vanilla, but had lots of secondaries. I also picked up Sagat for a bit in Super since he’s a good “easy” character, though I know at least half the cast to some degree.
