SFxT General Discussion #3 - Still Alive

Yeah I was in there earlier. Ramos is pretty good. Hate that he had to drop Ibuki. Hope to fight Seth again someday. Need to see if my new Lei tricks will work.

I know the universal chain nerf is irrelevant to me…since I don’t do that almost ever. Those AE linking skills :stuck_out_tongue: What sucks is that the cr. mp link is gonna feel hella tight like the AE counterpart. It felt so good to not have to bust my hands linking shit with Ryu in this game. I played Rose where all her shit is 1 frame and I wanted to not have to tight links in this game. Well time to practice that P-linking again. I don’t need to plink with Ryu in this game as it currently stands although that is gonna change :frowning:

Well I would just say this, you can’t go wrong with any partner. Ryu is pretty much like salt. You can put salt on just about anything. I’m just going to hit the training room and see what kind of dummy chemistry my team may or may not have still and then see if I need to make changes. Juri is still going to be good IMO, she is just not super Juri like she once was. But I guess it all depends on your play style. I have two diff teams I use and I use two diff strategies with those teams. And if that doesn’t work its Guile time lol

after reading the 2k13 changes and watching people play, im glad LLLLLLLLLMHH will be a thing of the past.

Yeah I feel you. Well hey we can always hit the briefing room when 2013 comes out and figure something out. I have my work cut out with me for Bison. Luckily I still play AE and enjoy it so I’m going to have to convert to a more AE style Bison. R.I.P. standing MK to st.HK. :-(. You were so good to me. R.I.P. st.MK to st.HK cross under. The many people we baited into jumping. The Jins we destroyed together. :frowning:

You see PR Rog? Man that mess made me sick…I was disgusted with the abuse…Stream Monsters were loving every bit of it because each time he did it, it destroyed the game even more.

speaking of how street fighter characters are gonna change why are your thoughts on sagat. My first team i tried to play was sagat/akuma but akuma did not really work out for me. I might try to give this team another go since akuma seems to have gotten some nice things.

I second you on that thought. I got bodied by a fucking scrub doing that shit with Cammy. I felt tempted to send him hatemail. But whatever that idiot doesn’t even know what’s coming for him. Fucking scrub.

Actually i think they went a little overboard with some of the nerfs but i think sf side will do just fine once the dust settles.

Multiple lights into boost combos aren’t going anywhere. Chain footsies are gone but you’re still going to see LLLL-M-H-H.

Damn i want to see this scary tech…

I hope so. I just don’t want this game either turning into TTT 2-D edition or …SFIV with Tekken characters. I am trying to be optimistic. I already accepted Ryu’s neutering but its all good.

Ahem

So he did lose that despite no mentioning of that in the patch notes?

You just had to be a party pooper huh lol?You would think that a UNIVERSAL nerf would …ya know…make people really learn something. The LA tournament was the highest offline level of play i have seen since civil war. Its a shame to see the game still being played like its still in loc testing. Got james chen on the mic acting like raw launcher is new stuff, no disrespect to him but most are out of tune with this game. I see 2k13 as a blessing in regards of hopefully getting ppl to take off the kiddie gloves and play for real…

Raw launcher in tournaments is new stuff! You know no one likes to do shit that involves risk in tournament play. o_O Hence why you had a great deal of the participants playing the safest characters on the cast along with mashing out cr. :lk: at every tick and turn.

Welp. It was nice playing you guys on the PSN side/anyone else I’ve played offline, but I’m selling my copy to my local game store come tomorrow morning. I’ve planned on quiting for a while now anyway, and what better opportunity now that they completely destroyed the only character that allowed me to actually have fun for a change + other changes I just simply don’t agree with.
GGs Songi, Ray, Tatsu, Empyrean, Will, everyone else. Fuck this game man, lol.

Man it really sucks to see you go but since you had plans to go obviously you have your reasons. I had really crazy matches with you and glad I was at least good enough to provide some challenges. Good luck, and have fun in the next thing you decide to pursue bro. :tup:

I main Sagat. He will be ok IMO. You just have to rely on block strings and safe tiger knee pressure. Get that life lead, get that space, throw that niiiiiiccccceeee, sloooooowwww and eeeaasssyyyy tiger shot out, watch them jump right over it and WHAM! WHAM! Double High step kick into super or Tiger uppercut.

He will be back…everyone never really quits. This shit has much it drives us insane keeps us coming back for more. I am the saltiest man alive and I wanna punch walls and quit the game multiple times. But I can’t. I just let my salty moments rock and come back calm.
