Lol no. I’m broke. Confidence is key though. Well, and solid gameplay…
ima get top 3 wit the worst character in the game lol, naw i will prob get 1st instead lol
naw son…my Bison gonna dominate…
Lol insert random shit talk here
Yo I’ma land gimmicky focus attack into ultra and do like 20% damage and people are gonna be all OHHHHHHH SHIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTT.
Why would you think that 3rd players will be top. This game plays nothing like 3rd. No parry!!! I repeat no Parry.
yo i wanna make the lucky’s tourney but the gamestop round 2 is the same day…
what time will the street fighter 4 part be held??
oh and was it frank the tank saying gen wasn’t competitive i’d like to prove that wrong
Wth… go to lucky’s. Fuck that gamestop tourney…if you have to make a choice…
personally i find sf4 to be sluggish, boring, and two dimensional compared to 3s, however it’ll be fun to play new characters in a new game.
lol@roski getting mad at beaver g
see yall this weekend
I agree.
I said maybe Gen. I think he has potential, and can do big damage with super>ultra, but he’s just developing really slowly at the moment. The only characters I think truly suck are Rose, Cammy, and Dan. I’d love to see anyone prove me wrong about this, tho.
Lu: I’m not a 3rd player. :wgrin: Don’t worry, I’m not sleeping on you bro, I know you’ll be a force in this.
Haven’t posted in an NC thread in a good bit. My parents are getting me a new car, since I’m about to start college which is an hour drive from where I live. So I was wondering if any tournaments are happening over the summer for SF4 and STHD since I’ll finally be able to attend them on a regular.
shut up bitch, go fuck your spread sheet before I focus attack your mom!!
If I remember right since the last time I posted here, Edmondantes Life quite literally revolves around 3S. Anything that wasn’t 3S was shit to him, and he believes he’s the best cause of some silly spreadsheet. I remember one of the first posts I made when I said I played marvel, you quoted it and said fail.
Just wondering if you’re the same guy I’m remembering, but you can ignore me since I’m just an unimportant nobody = )
I played KOF 2002UM for about 2 hours today and IMHO its ah much better game than KOF 98UM. Stages, Music, Gameplay, Fun Factor, they all are better in this game. Shits kinda BEAST!
get outta my kool-aid. 
-Q
That’s good to know.
98UM is really too outdated for me to get into, I’ll still probably at least try when it comes out in the US.
Too bad 2002UM isn’t going to be nearly as popular as 2002 (after all, it IS the popular fighting game in the world) which is a shame since 2002UM seems like it will be good in most of the ways that 2k2 is mediocre.
I don’t think I’m going to do very well in SF4 right now. I keep trying to use Sakura, but she does NOOOO damage. Her best options just seem to be spam hurricane kick combos to try and get stun. EX hurricane kick into Ultra does no damage.
Sakura is wonderful.
Low forward shoryuken hits at any range.
low jab > low forward link > confirm shoryuken (super if you want)
If you want to save your ultra for an FADC or to blow through a block string, then don’t use it after ex-hurricane. Just do the bnb combo or an air reset.
Flower kick has + frames on hit… I’m 100% sure you can link standing short into shoryuken although I haven’t tested it yet.
Low fierce is straight CvS2. A really solid anti-air, but I’ve seen certain jump-ins beat it.
If you happen to hit shoryuken and they block it, focus that shit. You can even use shoryuken at mid screen just to get in and then play focus cancel mind games.
Fireball is meaty as hell on wake-up. So long as they don’t have an ultra stocked, it’s smart to start charging it as they get knocked down and letting go of it as they get up. You can combo after it hits, and if they block the fireball you still have frame advantage.
It’s interesting to note how much her focus attack advances her. Although she, like everyone else, has to recover for a while if it whiffs – she still moves forward a little bit. I believe most characters may have to punish it inefficiently because of that.
Also, her jump in kicks are interesting:
Roundhouse – Does the most damage. You can hit it high during the jump in, but you have to be close. This is because it’s like at 45 degrees toward the ground. You can do it high and meaty, but you have to jump in and close range.
Forward – Covers more distance than roundhouse, less damage.
Short – Covers more distance than forward, less damage. In theory, the jump in for this range would be the same range where a standard shoto dp would whiff. Just theory though, I haven’t tested much.
… but the beauty of it all is that they can all combo into low forward shoryuken.
Sakura is wonderful.
Yo angus can you bring my copy of TvC to the tournament please?
