SFV Lounge: I'm still alive. Sakura's alt is kinda cute

Samurai Shodown is coming out in a few days and it seems like everyone’s making videos of it.

Frame Advantage has a little video with every character and one on the in-game tutorial. I just chose Shiki because of waifu

Spooky’s uploading a few videos from a recent stream as well. They seem pretty good from what I’ve seen.

And we get a little peak of the story/arcade mode. It’s standard fare, all of the cinematic like stuff in the trailers appear to be intros and we get a sneak peak at the final boss.

Story mode? Now I’m hype!

Bla bla played like ass… can be said for any matchup. It’s not an argument.

So Darli isn’t a pirate. That’s a twist.

The banner thing with the console and game name right on top of the story subs was a 0iq move.

To make everything worse, that story run was definitely on Game Journalist difficulty. Not even the full run. Lol

Neither of these is an actual point either… a year old? The game was known well at that time and nothing has significantly changed the matchup with respect to air fireball/jumpin mixup at all.

The v skill punish means little since I didn’t say that akuma got in for free. I simply said that there is a mixup, that GOOD Akumas can use, when used at the right times and distances.

It really don’t matter if Brian or iwate are better, that’s the MU. It’s up to the players to decide how effective or ineffective the strategy is.

Yeah, I’m thinking he’s back

Valid argument when that’s how he was playing. He was just walking into Ex Air FBs like it was his job.

But whatevs, not like I’m the boxer main and know from experience akuma fireballs are not a problem in the matchup.

Should just listen to the almighty non one hit confirming dime who tried to hype up Falke VT2.

Edit: Akuma did eat some demon flip nerfs and boxer got decent buffs.
Matchup is hella even until akuma bulldogs boxer like cammy/Karin and puts him on ass. Then it’s like 6-4.

Akuma air mixup ain’t that strong vs boxer. You make them respect the fact that you’ll fuck em for throwing plasma and they stop doing it. Smug did not do that so he got bodied.

Triple post, but what the fuck ever. Boxer also has one of the best air to airs to use against Akuma with HP. Smug didn’t use it at all.

Gotta love the “DARRLI DUGGA” in the Japanese version of Samurai Shodown.

I’m going to try her out first, really like the multiple hits she does with every cleave of that sawblade.

Shoutouts to “Charurotto VS Assquake” too.

Anyone watched this?

The latest attempt to fill the EA void. I’m gonna check it out later at work.

Holy hell that’s so forced.

Literally the opposite of OG Excellent Adventures where it was just two homies struggling.

Two seconds in and the cringe was real.

You really just need that real homie vibe. The moment it feels forced, you’re basically doing it wrong.

Went to my folks’ place for a movie night (Spiderman: Homecoming, since they haven’t seen most of the Marvel stuff yet) and saw a copy of Norm of the North on their TV stand

…well, at least I know where my level of taste comes from

Not only is it a movie, there’s freaking 3 of them.

Would’ve never known the movies you watch are as unseasoned as the food you eat.

#Bless

:pray:

Oh I never watched it, I’ve just…heard of it.

And apparently my folks bought it and watched it.

Lol you’re okay. Parents do some wack shit at times.

You have no idea how many times I had to gice my mom the “Look, Im not fucking reading The Alchemist” eyes at her.

:joy:
