Oh snap lol she got nice Ken and Rose not so good I personally could beat the rose but, My rose isn’t so great.
It sounds really arrogant…but burnyourbra is a good player, not great. Shes as good as I am…and I dont win anything noteworthy, ^^
True she is really good lol.
>.> Kail… you know I’m a girl right? Lol! But it’s cool.
I can’t speak for all girls but I can give you some insight that makes it difficult for girls to be REALLY good, at least how I see it.
Many girls don’t like video games for some reason. It’s starting to change but it’s safe to say girls who are serious about their game or being competitive are few and far in between. They’re not serious mostly… but eye twitches c…a…u…s…a…l
For me, reason why I got into video games was the circumstances of my birth. I had horrible allergies as a child, and lived in Houston. Really bad allergies. I had to stay inside and read boring ass books while my classmates got to go outside run and be free during recess. If I went outside I’d get rashes all over my body. I had to get allergie shots every week. Pretty fucked up, I was confined to indoor activites. My Mother had friends who had sons, I’d go over and they all be playin their SNES and Genesis. I loved that shit so I got a Sega Genesis with Sonic 1. Rest is history. Point is if it wasn’t for my allergies and lack of entertainment options I’d probly be a totally different person- never getting into games or even posting this message right now. It’s scary thinking about it.
It’s not easy being a girl and going to tournies, esp if you’re a legit looking one. For me, it’s hard to get offline because chances are guy will want to date me. Disaster waiting to happen… many gamer guys are social duds or simply do not know how to handle… or keep women. I have LOTS of first hand exp because I’ve dated a handful so I can safely tell you that.
Anyways. You need offline to be REALLY good at fighters. There is absolutely no way around this. It’s harder for girls to get good offline practice.
Really hard. And I know there is just this thing in men… fighting women at video games is always lose lose situation. You win- no one cares- you beat a girl. You lose- well… you lost to a girl, you failure! I’ve learn to sandbag against the guys I date lol. Nothing more pathetic when my guy rage quits in a mirror match when I barely use their character. >.>
What’s that Chuner… Kayne… is that her name? I have a lot of respect for her. I look around at some comments about her and many of them just make me go =/ Same with burnyourbra. Racist comments with her too. Infuriates me to no end. They are both brave in my eyes. Men say women aren’t good and/or there aren’t enough representation… well some of you guys really don’t do much to help it by acting like a bunch of horny outcasts. Granted, not all guys are all like that. But some of ya’all still acting like cavemen, and you’re scaring us off.
And lol @ Evo’s women’s only event. Get the fuck out. Is there a men’s only event? Childrens only? Mentally impared? Yeah, you know what I’m getting at. Segregation isn’t the way to get women… or anyone into SSF4/whatever. Period. Might as well name it retard olympics and call it a day. I’d spit on that shit if I went. Wouldn’t even enter if I got in for free/ paid for it. All 3 video game tournies I won in the past when I was a teenager… wasn’t women only. That’s nonsense.
tl;dr I agree with yoru notion Kail that many women aren’t good at fighters… but it’s not because the female gender can’t play at the same level as their male counterparts, it’s that there are barriers by virtue of their gender/how society works which hinders their progress as serious competitive players. Some form of “glass ceiling?”
edit: crap I sound preachy. Brb going to sleep witha guy for 50 bucks to make up for it
j/k
Kayane^ here’s an interview with her
IPLAYWINNER INTERVIEW:KAYANE - iPLAYWINNER - FIGHTING GAME NEWS STRATEGY & MEDIA
I agree with her and crackfiend, there’s nothing wrong with a women tournament.
>.> NightOwl… you know I’m a guy right?
Anyways, I was gonna call the CatGirl link a good troll except he seems serious about it.
I remember Mike Infinite trolling burnyourbra on xbox live after a tournament, pretty hilarious. I haven’t seen a lot of her play, but I think I’m going to agree with Kail that she’s good, but that’s all.
Kayane is definitely legit, and ChocoBlanka was OCV’ing teams at Season’s Beatings.
Getting a little serious though, better go check out Xbox Live Orientation Videos - G4tv.com
LMAO HAHAHAHAHAHA
Real Talk? Seriously? You know your stereotyped with having that kind of mentality? Good shit though made me laugh.
DONT HIT ON ME SILLY BOYS TEEHEE!
w/e bro. Just telling people how it is. And you’re full of salt as usual, I see.
May aswell take a dip into the sea! LOL
But lets get real, its a video thread after all:
[media=youtube]sJBv-JjKiOI[/media]
Regarding the “For me, it’s hard to get offline because chances are guy will want to date me.” matter, Burnyourbra shouldn’t have that kind of problem (being that she’s not exactly good-looking and she’s lesbian), so why is she so average gameplay-wise?
okay, I won’t lie, that made me lol:rofl:
god damn fei longs everywhere on endless now :<
Sniper, I figured you were a girl. I remember reading a comment and going “snipers a girl?!”. I forget what was said.
With that being said, no disrespect… But I wouldn’t put you in the same class as chocoblanka or kayane ( add Choco to the list also).
But I will agree that I could see why it might be hard to get offline casuals with some guys. Hell, if you fine and you play street fighter we might be married that night! That goes out to all females who play fighting games. I know myself. It would start in a way of “yea I could be friends with this chick…” and it would gravitate towards more. I’m a scumbag.
So… There are a lot of guys out there that would want that.
But if you can find the right group of guys, it’s the best way to improve. With that being said… I can see that being tough.
I don’t know. It sounds really sexist but I haven’t met a woman worth a damn in any video game that requires reactions, precision, and definitely mind games.
Games like scrabble, or wheel of fortune… Maybe.
But, every chick I’ve played in any video game is… Okay.
I’ll just be over here with the emperor, because I’m definitely on the dark side now.
Edit: but on some real shit, burnyourbra is my favorite female player.

A video I did on anti crouch resets off of a fuhajin low fadc. Disclaimer: Yes, i took the idea for the beginning from desk, and yes thats dexter…heh.
Seriously, let me know how you feel
wow, mad stuff going on here I’m gone for like a day or two now talking about female gamers playing fighting games. But, I think Guilty from Final Round XIV was good in MVC3 beating a whole team I think that was sweet. ah, damn barely play marvel anymore I’m waiting for Jill argh -__- and working on my pokemon black version
so have u actually tried it on all the cast then or just the cast that you can hit fuzzy?
Theres some other characters you can hit IA j.mp but not off a fuzzy jumpin, duno if that will aid your quest for knowledge any further.
To my knowledge it works on sagat, Seth, Abel. Doesn’t work in thawk to my knowledge. I think gouken, rose and deejay is no. Viper is a no. Who else… Dudley… I think. I’ll check.
But yea. That’s next.
…
Just saying as it says on the front page there will be a free for all stream for SSFIV on psn. Anyone who wants to show off juri or support juri should join if they want to.
UYG Live Stream
Hopefully Rugal is on today. I will get that win!!!
It’s tough to get into uygs lobby. Fun times but sometimes a bit tough.
I’m going to go on a little early (Whenever i finish this damned essay) and see if we can try to get connection issues somewhat solved.
Kailkun (Juri) vs RoyalMist (Blanka)
First to 10 with a Blanka player named Royal Mist. Had a lot of fun with this set, and I hope you all enjoy it. I really would like you guys to watch and pick it apart.
