I really wish that they would make the reversal timing shorter but judging by that video of ibuki vs makoto where ibuki gets like 3 reversals in 1 second, they havent -_-
Yeah, well, 10 frames, in general, is just ludicrous in my opinion. I mean, it doesn’t have to be some 1-frame nonsense like ST, but, lord, give us a little credit, Capcom! In a perfect Street Fighter IV, there would be no cheater-inputs and 5-frame reversals. That keeps things legit, and it still provides more than enough time to reversal IF you’re skilled. I think we’ve cut the scrubs enough damn slack, wouldn’t you all agree? There ya go: ya got your cheater mash-out reversals so you could learn the game. Woopty-doo… It’s been a year; can we finally get back to playing competitive Street Fighter sometime soon? PLEEEEEASE??? Those of us that got good at Street Fighter back when it was difficult, whether it was via ST or 3S, put a lot of work into getting to that level of competitiveness. I feel like it’s a big slap in the face when people can just hop on board and start mashing moves and reversals just because they didn’t wanna take the time to learn some simple inputs and timing?! Why even play the game then?? I dunno… I guess I’m just a little jaded. lol :bluu:
@ aegis neglector
I feel you on this post yo, but think about how 3S was ONLY for SF heads. It was so hard for someone who didn’t know how to play SF to get into it. Even Ono said this before SF4 was released in a interview. He wanted everyone to play the game, and they are. The top players are still on top:Daigo,Justin, etc. So I really don’t see the point in saying you are not playing competitive SF. You still beat me (even though the score is closer) and you have a good understanding of the game. You will still beat any buster who claims to be good, so allow SSF4 to be an easier SF to play to gain more players. You told me you wanting to keep this shit rolling, right? And now it is. It got me into wating to play nothing but SF, an d my game has gotten 10x better. Like you said at the last gamenight that there is a SF for everyone: Now there really is a SF for everyone.
3rd Strike ready
Off that note ready to bang on gamenite on SF4 and on 3S. Looking to pull off some more wins in Sf4 w/ Sak-baby and staying as far away from Sean as possible in 3S.
Very happy to see that the 3S characters are getting so love now that they are in SF4. Looking forward to learning Makoto, as my 2nd or maybe even my main. Battles are going to be so sick in that game.
See you friday
In honor of 3rd Strike, the 1st Street Fighter game I learned:

Check it out…
Looking forward to tomorrow night! I’ll finally get to meet everyone.
Anyone got me on a ride? I’ll always be happy to put a lil in the gas tank for your troubles
SF4s problem really isnt its reversal window IMO. To me it is the hitstun on block vs on hit. The difference is too big making pretty much any pressure string unsafe vs a lot of the good characters with FADC dps.
The DP shortcut, df d df is the only stupid shortcut. Dragon punches starting by themselves from a crouched position is too good. Should be like how it was i sf2 sometimes where you buffer the real dp motion while whiffing a low quick move to get a low hitbox.
Gas not needed but I can give you a ride Brock. I’m not sure if I’m good for a ride back home since my friend has an art show during game night so I will play, bounce out for a bit and maybe come back and play. Call me at 847 337 9250.
Well, to my utter fucking amazement, my cold went from being past the worst of it…to a full blown round two…I feel worse today than I did all week.
I’ll do my best to show up tonight, but if I can’t get to feeling like my eyeballs aren’t exploding in slow motion, then I’ll pass.
Brock, I’m definitely looking foward to meeting you and getting some much needed blanka experience (I have almost none against a really good blanka), hopefully that will be tonight, but worst case it can be next week I guess.
>_<
BIG MATCH UP TONIGHT
JiGo(Sakura) vs Flexo(M.Bison)
First to 10! Bring the Heat! Teacher vs. Student!
What time should we come over today? Im not 100% sure if I will be there tonight but if we start earlier I may show up for a little bit.
You guys can start showing up as early as 6:00 if you want.
Any of you guys heading our way for the RanBat tomorrow?
urghhhhhhhhh yeah I prolly won’t be showing up tonight either i fucking hate being sick
cool thanks mike
ill stop bye for a lil then if I can
Phreak: doubt it
Clayton, I’d love to but I don’t think I’ll be up for it in my current condition.
I got a MC pad for the dual mod project you and I have been talking about, one of these days soon I WILL come up there and drop it all off to you.
Damn, game night is shrinking by the minute!!! Is anybody planning on making it out?! :sad:
You know, I should’ve thought about it before but I realized it would’ve been pretty convenient for both of us to have you just pass off the stick at the Indy tourney to someone who made the trip from my local area, then I would’ve just shipped it back , oh well…hindsight and all.
Mike if I can shake this fucking awful headache I’ll be there. But you wouldn’t want me there in my current state, I would be useless (even more so than normal).
I still wanna go, as long as I have a ride BACK home haha.
I’ll give you a call in a bit Bryan.
Also, if anyone is planning on going to the RanBat tomorrow, lemme know, and I’ll split gas, or hell even pay for gas all the way. Shouldnt cost more than 25 bucks both ways Id assume (then again I could be assuming wrong).
But yea, if anyone does plan to go, holler at yer boy!
Dont think I have the energy to drive to Chicago this weekend.
Ill probably be there tonight.
Chris: pound some advil! Or smoke haha
