Level of play: Low (Just started playing SSFIVAE seriously and I’m playing hard to become a better player)
Why did you choose yang?
I’ve always been a fan of the twins. I like their fighting style, attitudes, everything about em.
What you hope to achieve?
To master this character and to be a great technical player while also improving on the mental aspect of the game. I wanna compete at tournaments and do well.
What other characters do you play?
Yun. Little Ken and very little Fei Long.
If there’s any good Yang players out there that is willing to help out a beginner Yang, I’d really appreciate it. I’m always down for tips and constructive criticism. Add me so we can all have some good training sessions and good matches.
Level of Play: Beginner, bought the game recently not that good.
**Why did you choose yang? **I tried playing Yun due to his character design however I just couldn’t really feel a connection with the character and then I played Yang and found him more fun and unique.
What you hope to achieve? I hope to become a top notch tournament player and really grasp the aspect of the game. I would really like to play Yang in a way that influences others to play him and play him well enough to make myself and him recognizable in the Fighting game community.
**What other characters do you play? **I been playing around with Yun, Ryu, Ibuki, Akuma, and just trying to really get a feel for the characters, I used to really focus on Akuma in Super when I used to play XBOX, but now I’am all about my PS3.
Feel Free to Add me on PSN or Message me if you have any suggestions/tips, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

**Level of Play: **Brand new Why did you choose Yang? He reminded of Iron Fist (rekkas) who is my main in UMvC3.
**What do you hope to achieve? **I want to become an above average player and be able to hold my own online. I’m also hoping to decide on whether I should stick to Yang or move to find another main. I’m willing to put in all the work needed to properly decide if he’s for me =] What other characters do you play? I just got the game 5 days ago, so I don’t really have many characters I play, but I did spend some time with Juri, Ibuki, and Yun. I’m also planning on learning Makoto and Guy. Feel free to add me, I could really use any pointers or tips to help me get started on this game
P.S. It’s very difficult to transition from a game like UMvC3 to this >.<

Level of Play: Low/Mid (Mid with Cody, Low with everyone else)
**Why did you choose yang? **I chose Yang for a couple reasons. The main reason is because I really like his playstyle. A good mix between rush-down, pressure and footsies. I also just like Yang for his personality. I also chose Yang because I wanted to pick up a secondary character. I’ve been playing Cody for about a year straight, and that gets stale after a while.
What do you hope to achieve? I just want to be able to compete with the top players with Yang. Maybe not necessarily beat them, but at least give them a bit of a challenge.
What other characters do you play? Cody. I also play a little Sakura, Ken and Dudley, but I’m not that great with them.
Location? New York, United States
Feel free to add me. I want to do my part to make sure that Yang doesn’t die just because of the nerfs he got in 2012.

**Level of Play: **Been playing solid for about 3 months now. played back in vanilla and just a touch of ssf4 Why did you choose Yang? I like his playstyle. I like his target combos, jabs, low kicks into rekka being mostly safe on block, his dp as an aa, and his fadc into ultra
**What do you hope to achieve? **Just get somewhat decent with online play.
What other characters do you play? In Vanilla on PS3 I lamed out Akuma because focus attacks have always been a source of confusion for me because i never played third strike. I could actually do a couple combos, but my vortex was non-existent. I did play in the arcades here in Cali for a bit tho. I also had an alright Gen game (i.e. if someone didn’t know the matchup or they were a bottomfeeder i had a good shot.)
When I recently purchased AE for PC I started with Fei (a name that pops up a lot haha) and switched to Yun to learn some easy combos. Then I noticed most Yangs beat my Yun so I had to bring him up in training mode to see wth was going on, and then I discovered I liked Yang more than Yun.
I also play Seth. I’ve spent the last month practicing him. Sometimes it’s tiring running people down with Yang and I like to have the option to go to a fireball character that I like. I also wanted to play a character that had a better command grab so I could get a better understanding of Yang’s. Plus it’s nice to play a character that has a proper cross-up every once in a while.
Then there’s basic knowledge of all the classic characters. Guile is actually my strongest in most matchups online, but I feel his execution requirements are too low because he can just lame it out. And, anyway I struggle with execution.
I struggle a lot with temper in this game, I pull the plug sometimes because of dropped inputs or when i get mixed up 100% with those meaties… hahah
gamertag PSN:koufdell
level of play:bottom mid(in AE and 3rd strike)
why yang? for the mixups , i love missing with people mind and learning from them when they mess up with mine that’s why i played dudley in 3rd strike after watching kokujin finisshing a game with 3 corckscrew blow in a row…still amazes me even today…
what you hope? actually i never performed well in tourneys and i want to get better in order to win!!!
other characters:yun,ryu,chunli,hakan
location:tunisia(can only play with some european countries:england , french , italy , spain)
**Why did you chose yang? **I dig his style, I think he’s a really cool character.
What do you hope to achive? I hope to show mastery with this character, and participate in tourneys using this character. (If anyone have any useful tips for this character or game, please PM. I would appreciate it a lot!)
What other characters do you play? Cody here and there (on a beginner level), Oni (on a beginner level)
**Level of Play: **Terrible, feeling the hurt online right now, losing damn near every match.
Why did you chose yang?: I always thought the twins were bad ass, Yang happened to be cooler and he sort of matched my more conservative playstyle, looking for openings as opposed to forcing them.
**What do you hope to achive?: **To enter the fgc as a Yang player who knows his shit and can give people a run for their money in local and even national tournaments. I’m a long ways away though.
What other characters do you play?: Absolutely none, this beast is taking up all of my time and love.
