Thanks a lot guys 
Sweet, thanks for answering that question man, its always nice to know what the thought processes for innovative strategies are

BTW, sorry to the person who asked about archives, this weekās is split in like 20 parts because we had to keep restarting it. >.<
Yea we were kinda in a bind without Striderzero there, but a messed up stream is better than no stream at all.
Depends on how messed up it is, but in general I agree. The glitches werenāt that bad so it was acceptable.
We can do a SD instead of HD stream with minimal errors but the qualityā¦
Also, I need to improve/extend my painwheel combos. Right now, Iām just a good keep away/zone player and some decent rushdown traps but when I get the hit, I forgot all her extended combos -_-
Need to steel weatherbees combos so further my gameplay with her.
I have an idea about that, may as well see if itāll work right now.
LOL āsteelāā¦oh MMDSā¦
Hey, just letting you guys know, Iām gonna be performing at Anime USA this thursday, so I canāt be the resident āshout at the editors until they post the streamā guy. So just send in your tips and let the rest of the writers know thereās hype for the best chance.
Be sure to bring tomatoes to throw at the audience - a pre-emptive strike. :^)
j/k, have fun. I think Ianāll do okay.
Random rant:
Itās so frustrating that buying any capture/stream equipment is so hard here. Everything ends up costing x2,5 without shipping, and in most cases no store ships those items outside the US. =/

Annnnnnd the experiment didnāt work. Darn. Looks like weāre stuck with what we had for another week.
Tis all good. Low resolution or semi-frequent restarts are fine by me.
Stupid hurricane with its stupid blackout for a stupid week.
As if, not being able to go to Salty Cupcakes wasnāt enough, I wasnāt allowed to watch it either. This Thursday though, I will not be stopped.
at the risk of being an ass and offering unsolicited advice, i personally dont think you need anymore combo technology at all, you know all the conventional loops and tie ins just not perhaps all of the more esoteric stuffā¦ which isnt really needed anyway.
imho and take this with a grain of salt, i think your biggest weakness with pw is a lack of reset options or consistent reset options and places to put them inā¦ pw can realistically kill an entire team by herself once she hits an opponentā¦ and she doesnt need super optimized combos to do it.
personally, my best resets, eg the ones that work the most consistently for me are:
low/throw reset off of lp stinger stagger (lp stinger, dash in st.lp, delay throw or delay cr.lkā¦ both go into easily confirmed full combo and the mixup itself is completely stupidly in painwheels favor unless the opponent does a reversal. against those characters that like to do reversals on the ground i switch up the placement of the mixup and do it in the air (destroys peacock,parasoul,bella and double since none of those characters have invincible air supers)
the mixup is: lp stagger, dash in, st.lp,st.mp xx fly,(delay) up forward, throw or instead of doing fly into up forwardā¦ do fly into down or down forward then immediately cr.lk confirmā¦ this will trip guard them if they went for a throw techā¦ or simply kill their high block upon landing.
against those 4 characters this is gold as they are forced to tech to avoid the throw. if they tech pw takes no damage. if they guess the non throw into low and do an attack to hit pw as they are coming down, that is the only way for them to do damageā¦ this is ridiculously in her favor.
those are the 2 best and most consistent reset mixups that i have or have seen from any pw.
another good one is st.hk (2) crossup or non crossup jhk. shit pwns people all day and its hard to mash out of cause of reversed inputs and cant be jumped out of eitherā¦ meaning that the opponent has to commit to a block of some typeā¦ if they can.
i have around a 70-80% reset conversion rate against opponents that are better than me, those are just the tip of the iceberg on resets that actually work that i do, there are alot of gimmicks to reset with as well (like j.mp xx fly on 4th hit, d/f +airthrow) thats a gimmick because there isnt a very good alternative to frame trap there tech once they learn the resetā¦ meaning it becomes uselessā¦ but used once every 5-10 matches or soā¦ like many of her reset gimmicks gives the opponent something else to thin about and makes her mixup game less stale.
so yeah, imho, stop ending in air super and start ending in reset starters like st.hk or lp stinger or st.mpā¦
unsolicited asshole advice offā¦ sorry if this was presumptuous and rudeā¦ i just like to see pws rape face with reset based playā¦ and think its her biggest strength

Omg. Giving fighting advice on a fighting game forum. What a dick.
I know, right?! How dare he do that outside of the Gameplay Discussion thread

Patch Air super can lead to resets though, so he can probably still cancel into super and go from there (xx fly for tech chase, combo continued into reset, etc)
thanks for the advice. I stopped doing the air throw resets, I should start those again! Launch xx fly throw use to be my āchocolateā bread and butter before the patch and was so good
what resets? i havent thought of any resets off of ground bounce that DONT incorporate a restand.
also, a cool post patch only reset that id like to see someone try with painwheel:
launch, j.lp,j.lk, j.hp (slight delay to move forward) xx qcf+hk
the jhp is to slow to combo after jlk so the opponent will fall without getting hitā¦ however pws jhp will move her forward over the falling opponent and with easy timing painwheel can input air hk buer which will be a crossup and hopefully allow full comboā¦ the crossup itself is stupid fast and can also be done as a non crossup using slightly faster cancel timing.
