SFxT General Discussion #3 - Still Alive

[media=youtube]2wcs23_MOZI[/media] these costumes are awesome!!!

Is this guy just a troll? Look at his face. I deny nothing, I did mash through his block strings, Bryan Rekkas and general Hugo play.

Also, based off this guys message, I have a new tier list. It MAY be controversial.

Cr.Mp/SRK/anti air Tier:
Ryu
Ken
Sagat
Zangief

Mainly because they’re problematic for Hugo. And it’s fun realizing you know NOTHING about the Hugo mu, as he disappeared off the face of the earth.

intuitve’s day one top tiers:

M.Bison
Sagat.

Man all this talk about these alts has kind of made me left out a bit :(.

I saw them go up on the store yesterday and when I tried to download them it said the following:

‘You cannot download this downloadable content at this time’

I was thinking: ‘damn’ then I fought OZ and Songi and lo and behold, they both have the alts and I was thinking throughout those matches:

‘I want that alt’ or ‘I wonder what I could do with this one color-wise?’

Nah but seriously GGs to both of you guys. I know my connection sucked which lead to OZ and Songi’s matches dropping. GOD I hate when a match drops like that, it felt like I was interrupting Songi’s fun (no sarcasm intended mind you.)

At least the cool thing now is that I can officially take OZ off of the Misogi hit-list. Songi on the other hand…

‘YOU ARE NEXT! :D’

Just wanna throw it out there that I bought this game at last yesterday and I’ve been playing it seriously and I love it. I fucking love it. I mean, I completely ignore the gems and the timeouts get tiring but I love the game. It’s been tons of fun so far.

The block and hitstuns last a bit too long compared to SF4 which is obnoxious and is throwing my timing off but that aside it’s a blast.

Got Julia/Asuka/Elena/Ibuki/Alisa alts, Sakura’s alt is just lol no buy.

After OZ blasted my face off with a Raging Demon I made a solemn vow to never die by any of his supers again. Style on me at your own risk.

^hey man i didnt start the fire now you gatta deal with the backlash.
And you now exactly what i mean. You take a guess and just do it. Ever get hit by flash kick when your doing a block string? Yeah you just keep inputting the command until you get your reversal. As for crouch tech, try doing close cr lk > st lp > Cr FP (ch) > scissors kick. I thought people figured that much out since vanilla SF4. How about meaty cr mk on wake up? Also i guess its ok for when you do cr mp on wake up with Lei whenever i do a cross up? :confused: its a risk/reward situation where you the player make a judgment call and take a chance. I dont say anything when i hit you with party crasher counter hit set ups because i could just as easily go for a grab and get it myself. Its just the way the game is

Agreed when I do an ABC combo and hit a HK or HP to end it twice, I launch them but when they are blocking I do the launch animation and leave myself wide open for a combo, usually noobs drop me but it is really hard to remember to not to double hit the heavy attack as I’ll screw myself over.

I am working on trying to find combos. It seems like I can’t execute some combos. Gr…
Am I the only person who has a hard time with blanka’s upball? sometimes it works, sometimes is doesn’t. I love the Cr.MK, Cr.MK, Upball after a launcher but sometimes that upball doesn’t work! Gr…

It’s actually inspired by The Monkey King Sun Wukong from the Journey to the West stories, which has a pretty strong and popular influence in fiction from Asia.

Son Goku (Dragon Ball)
SonSon (Marvel vs Capcom 2)
Saiyuki manga and anime
Wukong (League of Legends)
Silent Monk/Monkey King played by Jet Li (Forbidden Kingdom)
and many more!

Kazuya hits so hard. Even without ewgf.

Kazuya or Jin + Lars is dope. Gonna try Law today

Seems like a lot of salt over wake up jab, i play a Jin player who wake up jabs sooo much that i just do raw launcher on wakeup to win lol, that aside i see new posters, welcome to the sfxt community :slight_smile:

It seems like raw launcher is the answer to all the cheap bullshit in this game. I had to deal with the same Cody/Gief who mashed out Cr. Lk (with Cody, obviously) and Cr. Lp (with Gief) constantly whenever I would get close. The dude literally ate 9 raw launchers in every match and STILL fuckin mashed his face off. The dude sent me a message after our fights and explained why he used his team…because he knows Cody is cheap as shit! What an asshole.

i blow up 90 percent of codys, but gief still gives me the most issues, i really need to learn that matchup

So many raging demons in those matches :eek: . Hope you’ll use the new setup i came up with.

doesnt take skill to mash dp in a block string, thats not “nice” in my book

Julia players almost double because of her costume (including me)

Songi has a rage stroke

I’m waiting patiently for 2013 update when Julia gets nuked out of existence.

Not that I didn’t already love Julia before, but the alt is more awesome than I expected! Now I just need to work on PC CADC again, for some reason I failed at it all day yesterday lol…

I’m waiting patiently for 2013 update when all frauds get nuked out of existence.

After the patch Yoshi is going to be a legit point character don’t you think? And Julia will pretty much play the same after the patch, just a little less fraudulent.
