OMG, he quite once again!

g3nn explains it in the tourny thread, but iâll tell ya anyways.
it means you get two spots to start as opposed to one. this way you wonât get peaced out so quickly by the top players, and youâll have more chances to play.
basically you have to lose 4 times before you get eliminated, as opposed to two. Thatâs of course unless you make it far enough so that you would have to face yourself in the bracket.
i think i went a lil overboard so yeah my badd on my past post. Your decision to quit marvel doesnât concern me tho, if the wasting the money is an issue start going to more casualsâŚno need to say your going to quit marvelâŚits just attracting people to respond back to itâŚwhich kinda annoys me. :lame:
Yo everybody august 31st iâm moving to brampton, i need info on the hot spots to play some mvc2 oh and yes for the third time i am seriously taking cvs2 more seriouslyâŚgimmi some advice on these two odd character i wanna use, King and that guy who looks like adon from street fighter alpha, he has that nasty tornado supper.
jerris:
king sucks, dont use her. joe is solid but only has like 2 good pokes. just use sagat, blanka and some other tough character.
o yeah, and cvs2 sucks aswell.
Uh⌠Brampton doesnât really have any âhot spotsâ per se. What part of Brampton are you moving to? As for CvS2, Jason and I are the best competition youâre going to find in this city. Considering Iâm effectively done with competition, you might want to talk to Jason about training you.
I donât use either King or Joe so I canât offer any insight.
CvS2 doesnât suck, you do and so does MvC2
Guide to using king (K groove)
Iâm writing this guide because Iâm glad someone is actually talking about gaming here for once. But mainly because I canât fucking sleep. Have fun learning cvs2, this game is somewhat dying.
King isnât top tier, but she isnât totally bad. Sheâs only usable in K groove. Trust me. But Iâll choose her over Yun or Kyosuke any time.
Her jumping mp and crouching mp will beat or trade with sagatâs punch! Needless to say this means itâll beat a whole lot more. Her pokes are very limited. And she has 2 really really crappy supers. Not only do they NOT do alot of damage, they also are hard to land. Which is why you should use her in K groove since itâll give you a nice damage boost when raged.
Noticeable specials:
-Double fireball will own many large characters. This fireball is good to throw at long range when your opponent canât jump all the way across (like Bison or Vega) or after a knockdown for chipping (if the opponent wonât wake up with a super that can go through). Itâs also harder to RC through the slow one because itâs twice as wide as a normal fireball. That doesnât mean you should abuse this move.
-Donât use trapshot or suprise rose outside of combos
-The only use for suprise rose is to juggle after a trapshot or mirage kick in the corner! No, it doesnât juggle after the HP grab. If you have roll, RC suprise rose is a decent anti-air.
-Tornado kick is pretty slow. A good player can counter it on reaction. And it doesnât have great priority. To safely use it, cancel mk/mp into it and only use the light one. Itâs tempting to use the HK version to close in on your opponent but a good player should be able to counter/avoid it.
Combos and pokes.
Her only cancelable pokes are crouching mp/mk, standing close HP and standing close mk (which you shouldnât really ever use).
So basiclly, her combos are limited to cr. mp/mk XX fireball/trapshot/tornado kick/mirgae kick.
MP/MK XX mirage kick should be your bread and butter. Use the lp version if youâre not sure itâs going to land. Mp/Mk XX fireball
or tornado kick is good for poking. Avoid cancelling into trapshot unless you know 100% that itâs going to hit because
trapshot isnât safe after being blocked.
Standing HK and cr HP are her main anti-air. They have different angles. Both are reliable. Learn which one to use.
Her df HK is nothing like Blanksâs df HP. It wonât go under too many things and itâs ALOT slower. Less damage too. Use it sparringly as a suprise of if your opponent uses alot of high moves (usually vs Yamazaki)
Supers:
The only way youâll land illusion dance is if your opponent is dizzy, or if you randomly do it and it so happens your opponent jumps, or if you do it so that it just touches your opponent as they wake up and they fail to uppercut/super/RC/block/parry/JD. So yeah, donât use it unless your opponent is a scrub, or if you feel lucky.
The other super only fully lands at very close range. Youâre better off keeping the meter.
Strategy and tactics:
Keep her at ratio 1. Unless you have Yun or Kyosuke on your team.
Kingâs normal pokes have pathetically short range, which is again why sheâs only usable in K.
Poke strings (that I use):
-cr mp x 2 XX fireball
-cr mp x 2, run up, cr HK
-cr mp, cr HK
-cr mp, run up, cr mpâŚrepeat
*you can replace cr mp with lp/lk x 2 and adjust these pokes according to distance
Note that cr mp has more priority but cr mk must be blocked low. mp and mk are pretty much interchangable in terms of range, cancelling and speed. But mp makes a better poke if you like to go for guard brake like me.
The way to rush with king is to alternate between those poke stringsI listed. To close the distance after these poke strings, you should run up very quickly and stop (I call it a run-dash) to do a cr mp. Or instead of run-dash, do a short jump mp. The reason is mp has great priority.
You should ALWAYS use cr HK or cr mp/mk XX mirage kick to âhit airâ after a knockdown if your opponent has safety fall (if youâre close enough I mean) Of course, if your opponent does a safety fall, the cr HK or mp/mk XX mirage will hit your waking opponent. If he doesnât do safety fall, you hit air and the mirage kick wonât come out since mp/mk whiffed and youâd recover b4 your opponent. So itâs a perfectly safe anti-safety fall.
Keep in mind that 2-3 of Kingâs mp/mk XX mirage kick --> suprise rose combos in a row will get your opponent dizzy! Add another combo after it and youâve pretty much won that round.
You can play a turtle game by keeping your opponent away with her anti air st HK and cr HP and JD everything else. Or you can rush with her amazingly high priority mp. Anytime you see an opening, remember to punish with mp/mk XX mirage kick and add a suprise rose after it if youâre in the corner. Actually, if youâre close enough, do close standing HP instead or mp/mk to cancel into mirage kick. If you have the execution skills, use trapshot instead of mirage kick. But note that mirage kick will connect from a further distance.
If you ever want to jump in, only use mp or hk. As these are the only 2 jumping attacks that have good angle and priority. Also, jumping HP is an amazing air to air, especially if your opponent is above you.
Character match up:
Good against: Large and slow characters like Zangeif, Yamazaki, Honda, and all forms of scrubs.
Bad against: Characters with good short jump like Blanka and Sagat. Characters with high priority (Sagat, Cammy) or long range pokes (Vega). Note that you canât retaliate after blocking a blanka ball so practice JDing it on reaction.
Ok Iâm sick of writing. This guide is largely incomplete. For every sentence, I can almost add another addendum to it but I wonât because itâd take too long.
Have fun learning king and have fun finding someone in Sauga to play CvS2 with. I donât know who you are but if you ever see me in the arcade, you can ask me to show you King. I donât mind because I usually random my characters anyways.
Talk Pas Shit 
You posted at 7:30âŚpmâŚ
Actually, theyâre both very near the end of their life cycles 
Yeah, everything that was needed to be said.
King and Joe are not newb friendly characters. Try any other chars, everyoneâs decent except King, if youâre just looking for serious casuals. Even Kyosuke is good.
all i got to say is sagat punchs king regardless
Character match up:
Good against: Large and slow characters like Zangeif, Yamazaki, Honda, and all forms of scrubs.
personally i dont think king does good against any of those characters really, mayb znagief but not a good honda or yama
easy there big fella
i hope you didnt take that personal, because i was clearly talking shit. and anyone who knows ANYTHING about me knows i suck at cvs2, so it doesnt need to be stated.
when helping scrubs at mvc2, i say pick team scrub and learn the basics first. although everything you said is great for someone who knows whats going down, jerris never struck me as a cvs2 player (no offense, but you were really starting to improve in marvel), thats why i told him to pick sagat and w/e, im not trying to hate on one of ur characters. :rolleyes:
edit: NEW COMP :tup: :tup: :tup:
Would there be any arcade with 3rd Strike thats near by?

Whoâs getting KBBQ after the ORBIT tourney in a few weeks? Iâll pay for your dinner if you can eat more chicken than me.
Poeta; whatâs the cheapest price you can give me on a Pioneer A09 Dual Layer Burner. So far the lowest Iâve seen is $72, make it cheaper.
hmm to be honest on single items like that, most computer stores dont even make much of a mark up on them. Iâll see what i can do though. Wait till this friday and I should have an answer for u guys.
