Failpost.

Ophelikios · February 2, 2011, 11:54pm

I have claimed this on my own accord many a time!

OneEyedJack · February 3, 2011, 2:31am

Oh shit! Guru is stealing your accord!

Ophelikios:

It’s a lot of things.

Start by learning key combos.

Learn when these combos should be used (e.g.: If it is tough, make sure you have meter to fadc out of it.)

Grind out execution, so that you can know how to perform these combos.

Start bringing combos into matches. This won’t go as well as you want or think, because you have to incorporate many other factors, such as thinking of what to do yourself, thinking of how to react to the opponent and the character he is using, etc.:, But be patient, and it will work in.

NORMALS AND SPACING. Even if you know some sweet combos, someone who is going to keep you at a distance and poke you to death will almost always have an advantage. Know both your and your opponent’s weak and strong spacings, and your normals well.

Keep a cool head. Lord knows how many matches I’ve lost because I get impatient.

Try some online, but don’t base your progress on that. Most of your progress will come from playing people in person.

Make sure to adapt your game. You’ll notice when playing the same group of people, you’ll get predictable, real fast. Even though you may have an advantage on someone at first, this certainly won’t last.

There are at least a few suggestions that I could offer.

hows that guile comin?

also id recommend playing online to get more solid. people play like retards online. you’ll learn soon not to reward retardism. be prepared to want to throw your stick at shit though.

Stellar. Can’t wait to drill people again with Tron! What joy!

Ophelikios · February 3, 2011, 8:02am

Combos and knowledge are decent, However I really haven’t run him in real situations, so I can’t really do shit yet. I need to feel out when to do things, learn match up experience, and get everything ground in perfectly.

I think it’ll click.

It’ll just be a long, painful road.

Steve23 · February 3, 2011, 8:06am

I’m not even going to justify that one, that set up was clearly thought out and intentional.

It’s funnier when someone else points it out. :razzy:

This picture makes me wish that Gainax vs. Capcom would be made. The supers for the Gainax characters would be so mind blowing. If TvC could happen then who knows what crazy crossovers may be possible.

DrewTheDude · February 3, 2011, 7:24pm

Nintendo Vs Capcom

zerojay · February 3, 2011, 7:42pm

I think they should stop watering down the whole Vs Capcom thing by putting them up against characters no one knows. (Gainax?)

Bricked · February 3, 2011, 7:58pm

Yeah, but when you attach a big name with the VS series, not only do you get the fighting game fans and the Capcom fans buying and playing you’re game, you also get the fans of that big name that they’re fighting against. Guaranteed there’s a lot more Marvel fans buying MvC3 then there will ever be Tatsu fans buying TvC. That being said, TvC was so much fun. I learned a combo!

zerojay · February 3, 2011, 8:22pm

Which is why I’m wondering why they keep putting themselves up against the little names no one knows.
