shruggs. More power to you if the dub is all you care about.

lol.

One of the more valuable things this forum provides is feedback/critique. We’re not always right, but what we can provide is a multitude of different perspectives. Unless you’re already at the pinnacle of progression or something~

I didn’t mean for the discussion to turn against you Mike. I was just curious as to how you really played after stumbling upon that video I posted earlier. It really is unfortunate you’re not willing to share your personal findings with us, but that’s your decision and I hope for a lot of hype in your future for when you do reveal your aces.

With that said. I’d like yo hear your thoughts eish. My videos are up top in a mm vs bison. That’s if you can get past the shaky cam.

I got you when I get home from work before the Heat game.

OT for a sec. eww Miami. Theyll have a tough time against Boston next round, but that doesnt matter cuz the Bulls are going all the way!!! :rock:

Boston vs Miami = True NBA Finals. It’ll be worth watching; I’d like to see it go to game 7 =)

Thanks man. Even with everything I’ve done and said I respect your analysis and gameplay. I think an honest look at my gameplay like mike and Vulcan did would help me greatly.

Oh I agree, I could see it going to game 7 too. I was expecting the New york vs Boston series to be a good one, but Amare got injured :S. But this will be a good one thats for sure.

Just wanted to take the time to let you guys know how terrible i got with Juri all of the sudden. Last weekend i decided to jump on and play some ranked matches aster a two week hiatus. Starting Points: PP 3,900 BP 10,890 after an hour of play: PP 2,400 BP 10,430… Not exactly a point whore but I’d be lieing if i said this drastic drop had no effect affect me. In fact loosing damn near every match made me feel like complete ass, i felt so broken i just turned it off and went back to the problem. MVC3:lol: Gotta get the iffy skills i had back before AE comes out.

I could of told u that though, seen some of your replays on the NA channel, it wasnt exactly an amazing watch…moral of the story is mvc3 is a terrible game.

I know what its like to feel broken down. Playing with better players offline lately has really shown me the…faults of the character and the faults of my own personal abilities. More so…I have a hard time on Defense and keeping pressure and mixing up. That sounds like a majority of the game, however I think I have a pretty good feel for my character I’m just having problems with some of the advanced mental aspects of the game.

With that being said…dont give up. Keep playing and really take time to see what you’re losing to. I know it sounds like basic advice…but…I just found out I could Focus attack ex spin kicks. that made the match so much more doable, and playable. I found out that Bison cant PC through ex fuhajin mid. That made the match more doable.

You always gotta work with whatcha got and some of the fun should be exploration.

Keep your head up and keep going. Remember…points dont mean everything. Some of the best players i’ve gone against have like 0-6000bp and anywhere from 0-2800 pp. Point are not the end all.

gna post this before someone beats me to it and starts going “stay free Mike”!

I played 12 games with the dude of what i assumed was simply casual games and went 7-5 on him before he rage quit cz i mashed an ultra on one of his really long Seth combos. Coincedence that he uploads one where he wins but even more so is that he hasnt uploaded the one i mashed out ultra on him…strange. Yeah had no idea he would totally be mad enough to put a match on youtube.

edit: the channel is called FinestFighters but Ferdi aka II SETH II is the uploader that uploads all the videos, he likes to pretend he isnt the uploader though, God knows why.

MVC3 is’nt terrible, its fun as hell and 20x more fun to watch than SF4. Some aspects of the game are just kinda broken… The Moral of the Story is: At the ripe age of 31, I just don’t have the zeal and muscle memory to jump between fighters. Iv’e kinda always had that problem it just got amplified… That being said, gonna pick up MK9 tomorrow- New engine here i come!

True, its not really about the points, as you said that doesn’t really matter. The point difference was just there to remind me " you suck muther fucker!! Blood in, blood out!!" It was simply the worst day (90mins) of SF4 for me… anyhow - Im going to Tokyo in early July so i need to get my footing back before then. One needs to put up some kinda challenge cause that shit aint free. And i dont wanna be free lol.

We all have a Long way to go to not be free.

Some old matches I had re-uploaded in HD.

Probably not a good idea to jump at Sagat at that kinda range since you could eat Kara-Tiger Uppercut. But Juri can sort of control her landing with Dives I guess…

Made questionable(understatement lol) decisions against Rose in general.

The person who was kind enough to upload them hasn’t uploaded the rest of the matches yet. You’ll get to see me getting blown up by Bison soon because I wasn’t blocking lol.

Ive played Jinty’s Ken, pretty good, nothing i couldnt handle :slight_smile:

Well my friend just gave me this video. Im not juri sadly but I’m facing islandprince and his juri is pretty good. Also the video skips a bit I don’t know why I didnt record it. But yea here it is. I get murdered second round

Also gonna put this is in the viper thread but the stuff he did reminded me of hotaru’s match up vid

Last few minutes got really shaky at the end there =\

Here’s the advice that I can offer that would’ve made the FT5 a lot easier:

  • Your opponent forgot that his j.Fierce was stuffing your c.Strong AA and tried to use other jump-ins that were getting beat, but c.Fierce is a better AA to use against jump-ins at that sort of range, unless you – yourself position your c.Strong AA better. I know you must’ve come across the instances where c.Strong actually AAs people right above or even a little behind you in terms of hitbox~ Against Bison in particular, c.Strong is amazing if you position it right and follow up with a charge-negating setup like dashing under for a follow up where his only chance at reversal is ex.Stomps or the lesser-chance-to-happen teleport. The last reason why c.Strong is so amazing is because it moves Juri forwards, meaning people who think they’re going to cross you up, if you c.Strong, their attempt will either get stuffed/autocorrect/or it’ll make their jump-in whiff all-together letting you trip guard =)

  • c.Strong is also great against Devil’s Reverse which leads yet again to a dash-under shenanigan setup.

  • A good OS to use against Bison when he has no meter after a hard knockdown is j.Roundhouse~roundhouse.Senpusha to catch teleports.

  • When playing the oki game on a Bison that has meter, fake an action that leads you to the ex.Psycho Crusher-punish sweet spot and punish with ex.Senpusha.

  • Another oki situation would be to jump over him on knockdown so that he loses his back-charge (standard tactic against charge characters).

  • The absolute most important thing that would’ve made this cake for you is learning how to play footsies with s.Forward. It’s an amazing poke as you can use it to stuff Bison’s s.Forward, s.Roundhouse, c.Short and Scissor Kick on startup and can whiff punish s.Roundhouse =) (you can sometimes whiff punish Bison’s s.Forward also). Like all footsies though it is subject to counter-poking but the recovery is fair. After Bison does a Scissor Kick and proceeds to try to Scissor Kick-trap you, wait 1-2 before he’s in the right spacing to hit him with s.Forward to stuff his offensive assault.

  • Another footsie weapon to have in the bag is stored c.Forward -> Release FADC for big damage. c.Forward if he’s far out (counter poke entry) or c.Fierce if he’s relatively close (or in the corner to compensate for distance).

  • Against offensive Bisons, countering out is almost cheating -_-;

  • Your FSE needs to get stronger =(

Well…how can i get my FSE to snuff? I was really afraid of a PC. he was really happy on those so I was kind of afraid to pressure him. Next time i’ll take his back charge away and I’ll be fine.

Countering is almost cheating? What do you mean?
