I don’t want to quit but I sort of have no choice.Im outta the house from the second I wake up till like midnight so I never get a chance to play.I guess I could fit in sometime between the small gaps of time I have in the week but those are reserved for the gym…cause stomach fat doesnt tone itself sadly enough.
Besides no one ever seems to be online and gatherings are kind of slow right now.
Edit:Rush you should try to come to evo,its gonne be a amazing time man you gotta come!
You have to work on honda’s jab>HHS>F+RH combo jay,its a very important BnB for honda as well as his best tool for preasure.You also have to remember that honda is a defensive tank so you should never feel the need to jump in or move in all the time.However when you do decide to impose yourself the best approach is with the jab>HHS preasure.Just learn the range of your HHS and inch towards your opponent untill your within HHS range,at that point you can start to preasure with jab>HHS.
When it comes to good defense with honda the trick is just to play real lame and wait untill your opponent cracks and makes a dumb move.The matches can drag on long as a result but just keep at it,eventually every player will hate waiting around and try to move in somehow.This wont always work on every character mind you but It gets the job done for the most part.When we play sometime in the upcoming weeks ill show you all of this and help you get where you need to go with honda.
V:Im usually online during the weekends and its very rare that im ever on in the weekdays,and if I am its at random hours in the early morning lol.At any rate If your not busy this weekend give me a shout.Ill probably be free on sat after 6pm so if you got some free time let me know.
Regarding Jays tournament I strongly suggest everyone make a strong effort to come out to it.I regret not being able to make it to the gathering Allie had a few weeks ago so Ill be sure to mak it out to this one.Like jay said everyone is welcomed and its all about having a good time so I hope to see a lot of faces at the event.
I take advice from everyone and then filter it.hes right i have an over agro honda at times and would probably win more if i slowed him down a bit.its constructive critisism and its welcome with me.
Im sorry I couldnt give feedback as we were playing Jay but I suck at multitasking so I cant play and talk at the sametime lol.Ill try my best to give advice as were playing next time but my competitive edge always makes me blood lusted whenever I play!
Oh V if you have anytime try to look into the game room at the university.I dont know how its suppsoe to work but a buddy of mine had one a few years ago so it might be worth looking into.
Honda can turtle Fei out. That’s not an easy match for Fei.
As for AE… lots of people got buffs and some people got nerfs. The game’s three best characters are Fei, Yun, and Yang, but lots of people would rather play with the AE version of their char than the Super version (such as Guy, Cody, Hakan, Ken, Makoto, T.Hawk, Dudley, etc). Not to mention any character that remained mostly the same, but who had tough matches against Guile and Sim.
Honda vs Fei basically comes down to whoever cracks first.Its a tough match but I give the advantage to Fei on the account of better AAs and footsies.Not easy either way though and its easily the most annoying fight outside guile and sim IMO.
AE looks pretty good but some of the balance changes are quite unusual.Im not complaining though since my guy is top:rock:
Although all of this talk about SF is getting me in the mood again.Maybe with the long weekend just a day away ill dust off my copy of SF4 and give it some loving again.
Some of the balance changes are definitely unusual. It’s a bit of a shame they had to go and change what they did about some characters, knowing it would unbalance the game. But meh, we’ll play it and try to get around it like we always do.
I think Fei is already pretty much top. They didn’t change him a whole lot… his gameplan already works in Super. It’s just that they nerfed his bad matchups, so he “appears” better because fewer people can beat him. He’s already amazing in Super.
I think all charge characters are annoying for Fei. I’d put Chun and Boxer up there after Guile as his hardest matchups. I think Fei-Sim is in Fei’s favor.
I never liked the approach capcom had with balancing the SF4 seris which was basially just nerfing anyone who was top lol.I didnt even mind the top tiers from SF4 or SSF4 all that much and if anything I just wanted them to buff the mid/lower guys.Like just check out the last tier list posted by eventhubs on SSF4:
If they just worked on improving everyone below vega so that the entire roster would have fluctuated between honda and vega then I think we would have had a pretty damn balanced game.As it stands AE isnt terribly balanced but they could have done a better job IMO,but meh like you said we’ll work around it per usual.
Rog and Chun are tough bitches for sure and lets not forget the joys a defensive bison can bring lol.Although the pattern to beating charge characters is all very similar with fei so after some practice they become less annoying.Your right about sim being in fei’s favor but its more or less just a personal frustrating for me to be at mid/full screen away from him trying to get in lol.Sim has always been the 1 character I hated fighting agaisnt the most…in fact id say he is a more frustrating foe then a very random el fuerte player.
Honda can’t move forward or he eats rekkas. He can’t do anything to a blocked rekka. Headbutts get punished with rekkas.
If I had a choice between playing S dudley or AE dudley and AE dudley had EX duck (lol) but S dudley didn’t have to worry about fighting yun, yang, or fei who got buffs for some stupid reason I’d take SSF4 dudley any day of the week.
Did you SERIOUSLY just link eventhubs tier list like it meant something? The one with Fei and Akuma in mid and viper near the bottom? baaahahahaha.
Honda has a very long-reaching 4f jab so Fei can’t just throw rekkas for free. Honda is probably the best neutral-jumper in the game. Even so, I don’t see how Honda ever has to pressure Fei. He can hold down-back and make Fei work for it. Random jump up and down from rekka range if he feels like it. Fei can’t punish it or random chicken wing on Honda.
I think Dudley does okay against the twins. He makes them pay for everything they do. He can punish blocked or whiffed DPs for basically max damage and a corner push where most other characters can’t. He has 3f normals, a great stand jab, and a great stand fierce for dive kick checks. He has an ultra which can punish palms from a good range, fake or not. I think he’s got tools to beat them, plus Dudley is a top 3 damage character in the game, so Yun can’t be flailing. Dudley needs way fewer guesses to win.
