SFIV in Tacoma now!

Prison Break is going to be HELLA good tonight.

In other news, I am sort of conflicted now with GW having SFIV. We as gamers and customers have been shafted so much in the past and then all of a sudden we get SFIV with the most pristine cabinet set up possible. Had I a second more efficient car I would mo def head down there more often.

Yea, hopefully having it in the higher traffic downstairs area will result in more frequent maintenance. So far so good though.

im goin to GW Thursday after work, ill throw in a card

Expect matches like this against me and deezo when console comes out (probably the same colors too lol).

That was a bomb match. I like those colors to, brought back an old bison favorite and chun-lis best color from 3s!

I have got to learn to saving attack I don’t do it enough at all.

I like those double saving attack combos. I wonder who else but chun has a viable one?

I saw mickey try some stuff with ryu, I imagine something like SA, SA into ex hurricane works?

Mike, are you playing Ryu seriously, or do you have a different main character?

Mickey’s weapon of choice is SA, SA, shoryuken IIRC. But don’t take my word for it, let him do it to you! It feels good.

why is it that most geif players that i see online kinda suck? or do japanese players never fear geif cause nobody runs from geif in these vids. i wanna play vs these japanese people so i can rape them.

MONDAY NIGHT FIGHTS! Had fun tonight, good matches everybody.

Yeah, my double SA combo of choice is: SA lvl 2, sa lvl 1, dash forward, srk. It only works on certain characters, but mostly all work…for example it won’t work on Honda or Blanka (from what I’ve done)

And yeah Jamie I do use Ryu as a main…are you trying to be next on the list too?

I think I might show up again on Wednesday. Kinda itchin to play some more.

No, I was just wondering. I’m not that comfortable with the system yet, as I haven’t had nearly enough practice to be as cocky as you are. Chill.

Damn cuz, since when has that stopped you before regarding every other fighting game out there? Just busting your huevos a bit.

You know I was thinking, even if you did MM someone in Tacoma and won, you would still come up short with gas prices nowadays.

No shit… gas is too much, dude. Never thought gas would be twice as much as insurance.

But in other fighting games, at least I had practice, and some skills. Since then, I’ve tried to just chill out. Hype is one thing, but I just get stressed when I get too into fighting games.

Soooo… has anyone here tried the Kara saving dash cancel with Ken yet? I’m hoping to see this become useful.

Kara saving dash cancel? Speak anglish.

what he’s tryin to say here is:

you do ken’s move for a kara grab (forward mk) right into a saving attack, then dash forward…what it’s supposed to do is move ken further forward than if you were to normally do a saving attack and dash forward…kinda like doing sagat’s kara tiger knee. just to get more distance out of something.

Except it basically is an instant dash that goes through fireballs.

Except for the fact that you have to take the fireball hit to make it effective…if you try to dash through an attack it doesn’t work. You can only absorb hits while in the saving attack animation, if you try to dash forward out of it before that you will get hit (seen it happen to me many of times). I know that there’s a video up of this, but you have to remember that that video isn’t from a match, it’s them experimenting it.

Also no one has bothered to try to do anything further with it here because no one is playing Ken except for Manny and maybe Billy. But I will say this, I’m not about to go dabble in some other character because some new and exciting technique was found that in my opinion is going to not be that effective in the long run. Cause EX fireballs will own that kara SADC (No invincibility frames from dashing forward IIRC, and well you used the absorb hit for the first hit so yeah ggpo). And it might work well against shotos, but Guile recovers too fast for anyone to do anything about it (Well maybe they could try to grab them, but if a guile player sees someone dashing in after that they are already recovered so the 3 options in their mind are to grab/break grab or dash backwards [remember back dashes have a few frames of invincibility on start up]or straight up if they feel a grab is coming), and I don’t even play Guile.

It goes through EX fireballs though, doesn’t it? I was under the impression that that was tested already.

I guess I could see why someone would want to do this, but really, I’m not trying to just be dashing at people in this game when characters have buff ass shit waiting to set your ass on fire. Also, I don’t see how it’d go through an ex fireball as saving attacks only have one hit of super armor.
