Depends on the move. Some only allow cancelling before active frames, some 2-hit moves only allow between the first and second hits (Vega’s close standing HP 1st hit -> Rolling Crystal Flash), some only on block (Ryu c.RH -> fireball). There’s not really any hard and fast rule, just experimentation.

Yo, Mark, if you want, you’re always welcome to come over any play at my place, too. I was pondering having something on Friday, but if you want that, it’s cool, too. I’m not sure how big your place is, but I can generally get quite a few people in my apartment pretty dang easy if there’s a lot of people interested. Plus. the bus routes around me aren’t too shabby either. You can hit me up on Facebook or anything like that, too. I’ve never been to your place, I should figure out where that is, too.

I am pretty much okay with wasting the free time in my week on SF, where ever stuff is happening. Definitely having Wednesday at my place this week, and as long as I have time to hit up the gym, I’m cool for whatever.

Also, rawr.

if anyone around here needs a stick…they have TE type “S” sticks in stock at madcatz online store with a 20% off coupon over at http://gamesharkstore.ca/listCategoriesAndProducts.asp?idCategory=336 I thnk the Chun li stick is the only one thats sold out if anyone wants to hop on it…I think its like 166 after taxes, I’d go in on one to if anyone wanted to as well I want a black TE “S” still really really bad.

Also I dunno if anyone heard maybe jay or dan but you might want to read about this:

Friday at not-my-place would be AOK with me. I’ve got the day off so travel is a possibility! So nix that post then, we’ll hash it out on Monday.

Cool cool, we’ll chat it up tomorrow!

Question for the Marvel players. I just saw a situation while watching a stream and it made me wonder.

Left Team:
Phoenix active, 5% health, 5 bars
(any character), 45% health

Right Team:
(any character active), 30% health, any bars
(any character), 50% health, any bars

Match is winding down… 5 seconds on the clock and you are using the Right Team. Do you have to just stay away from Phoenix and not even attempt to attack her at all for the rest of the match? Basically, if you attack and kill Phoenix, she turns into Dark Phoenix with a full health bar… and time runs out. Did you just lose because you hit her and she refilled her health bar?

Yeah. If they killed pheonix she would go to 100% hp and then it would be 145% vs 80% total hp remaining.

Yeah, Dan’s right. Although, to be fair, as a Phoenix player, once the clock gets down that low and they’re running you should give up on the D. Ph strat and pop xfactor and hope for the best.

I was asking because it kind of reminded me of this: http://www.snopes.com/sports/soccer/barbados.asp

That’s…kind of amazing.

Have fun!

Woooo! Good showing Shrub!

I tuned in just in time to see Dan lose to a Makoto player. Don’t worry though, it’ll be my turn to get bodied next.

least he played sim and had support

I had support?! Weird. Everyone hates Dhalsim.

Did I go from a hated tier whore to someone who plays a skillful low tier character?! Good thing I’m picking up Yun, wouldn’t want there to be false perceptions about me.

Is there a more retarded match than Sim vs Makoto? Sim gets his brains scrambled in like one combo, and Makoto’s close normals are so silly that Sim puts himself in mortal danger every time he presses anything from closer than half screen.

Makoto is the new Rufus when it comes to beating Dhalsim!

I might actually have to learn that matchup now. Before I treated her like I treated Deejay, Hakan and other low tier characters: Just press buttons and apply my own gameplan, because they have no options against it. I’d actually have to learn those matchups now. Of course, I can just use Yun and apply my gameplan vs all but 6-7 of the cast and only have to learn those matchups…

Are you guys planning to participate this week? :slight_smile: I would like to see Flushes’s Abel in action :wink:

I’m not sure if I’m going to participate this week. Got a tourney coming up on Saturday that I want to grind for, so most of my spare time will likely be towards that.

Gotta get on that grind. That and making the mix tape filled with Indestructible and Guile’s theme. Ba ba ba da da.
