Justin’s Elena made me sad… No hitconfirms from B + HK or St. HK, not optimal combos (which is inexcusable since Elena’s combos aren’t difficult for the most part), and overuse of B + HK as a throw tech trap with no actual throws to threaten with. I hope he was just off his game in that match against KnuckleDu.

His Elena was always like that lol.

His Elena was always like that…

…“bad”.

When you say screaming…do you mean crying? Because I’ve never heard a penguin sing…like ever.

That stance and the amount of hubris coming from that penguin is amazing. Definitely more than an animal cry.

@0:24 - Looks so proud lol. “You mutha-fuckas ain’t applauding?”

Shoutouts to FunkyP for this. It’s up!

That match was insane, those four straight grabs at the end. It’s nice to see the crowd getting into xT for once.

dat commentary…

BshidoHEAT · 2013-09-19T08:10:51.000Z

I’ve been trying out Lars lately, a very weird character though a bit out of my comfort zone.

Jalass · 2013-09-19T09:21:02.000Z

dat 4 throws… why sagat kept a safe dp tag cancel? I mean that in a game where throw hurts so bad why are there moves: invincible and safe in guard for 1 bar, crouch invincible and free tag on hit, and why can’t you throw <5 frames crouch spammers -_-. There are still things that are beyond me even if it was still good progress since vanilla XD

Otherwise very nice games. A thought for those who told me that poison’s dp was bad.

owattjacob · 2013-09-19T09:45:38.000Z

Sagat’s DP tag is safe? Well fuck i’ve been trying to punish it this whole time.

Here is a breakdown for one of Rog’s solo combos. Sadly this one is hardly possible without a jump in or a really unsafe move by your opponent from point blank. Charge characters have a time in this game… Why did only Chun get this low execution treatment?

His most damaging hit confirm for his optimal meterless bnb is cr. Mk, cr. Mp other than that it’s jabs and shorts all day… Gonna make more breakdowns (with actual hit confirms) later.

Oh cool! You’re doing Balrog videos now? Just wondering, how deep are you going to go with him?

We thought Poison’s DP was bad. It’s not a good reversal, but I guess it’s a great AA.
Not sure what you mean by that first part with the throws. I mean, DPs aren’t safe on block even with tags unless you’re in the corner and the partner’s run distance is really short. As for crouch tech spammers, that’s just gonna happen. >_>

It shouldn’t be. None besides multi-hitting ones are.

owattjacob · 2013-09-19T10:53:45.000Z

Well that explains the reason why I punished some of sagats DP tags and others I couldnt. I must have looked ballsy as fuck if the other sagat player assumed I knew.

Any other DPs that are like this?

ExecutiveDave · 2013-09-19T11:12:18.000Z

Just ordered this game from amazon, should be getting it on saturday with 2 day shipping.

How’s the online scene for ps3? I mainly play marvel (on xbox) so I know lag can become an issue, is it terrible on ps3? I have several friends who I will be playing it offline with, but am hoping that online will be decent at least.

As long as neither player has bad intrrnet ps3 is decent enough. Most of the better players there either stick to endless or only play on request. Lots of low to mid range ppl tho.

Shouldn’t be. At the very least you can just alpha it and get both characters.

Yoshi can bait dps via teleport but I’ve never bothered since I usually just punish them on block, now i’m seriously considering it lol. Maybe Kuma can EX Megaton through the incoming character after blocking the DP or just make some crazy ass read and EX megaton the DP -> both whiffs -> punish?

Still scary knowing this, since it’s Sagat and DP tags into full combos hurt a shit load.

… I should play him

after nina/lars and a shit load of other characters that I promised to learn but never did

I somewhat covered his normals and specials in older videos. The only advanced stuff I’ve found are a few safe jumps and frame traps. I still want to find some midscreen cross up setups. Oh and I have yet to finish my written breakdown lol

roknin · 2013-09-19T12:47:44.000Z

Oh man I almost imploded the wiki I am so glad I figured that shit out… whew…

Still going through and just doing the DLC characters movelists (Elena and Duds done so far, Guy/Cody next). Will add vids and content later, and then go about updating all the characters over time. I think I finally have a grip on how to update it quickly… hopefully now without blowing shit up. ^_^’

Lei is going to be a fuggin’ biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaatch to update. Why does he have soooo many moves?

remembers maining him in Tekken and trying to learn his whole movelist

…Okay, it won’t be that bad.

AzureXIII · 2013-09-19T16:41:21.000Z

Looking to roll with a new team. Ken is just getting really tiresome. I intend to stick with Lars, point or anchor, so I’m just searching for a character to compliment him. Basically, I’d like to know which characters in the scope of the ones I’m willing to use would compliment him best in the long run. Synergy and all that jazz.

Willing to use: Abel, Ryu, Lili, Guy, Duds

I’m a tad indecisive when it comes to character selection, so I’ll roll with whatever is the most optimal. thnx.

Rc_ON · 2013-09-19T18:15:17.000Z

I would go with Abel, Lili or Dudley as anchor characters. Good damage and solid characters. They can take advantage of lightning screw tag cancels pretty well (Dudley j. hp , j. hk lol).

Also Lars isn’t a very meter reliant character and he builds a decent amount (using avalanche flip for better mobility, gives you a lot of meter). Especially Dudley and Lilli will be happy about that.

AzureXIII · 2013-09-19T18:50:03.000Z

Cool. Good to know they actually work well together. I think I’ll go with Lili for now, Duds later. That Raven-hair Lili is too stronk. I appreciate the help, especially that stealth Lars tech. Thanks!

Well, they finally confirmed that the 4th gem slot was indeed a mistake. There was a thread on Capcom Unity asking if they could bring back the 4th gem slot DLC, and Combofiend responded:

[details=Spoiler]Hello,

Sven is no longer with Capcom. As for the fourth gem slot, it was mistakenly made available to European owners of the game as a free download from the European PlayStation Store.

Just so you know, during Street Fighter X Tekken’s development phase we considered allowing users to increase the number of Gem Slots and created the relevant content, but based on community feedback following the game’s release it was determined to maintain the original three slots. Unfortunately, the content that enabled a fourth Gem Slot was still provided to Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) who then made it available through no fault of their own. Once we saw that it mistakenly released, we had the content removed from the European PlayStation Store, but not before a number of users downloaded it.

Moving forward, official Capcom tournaments will continue to run utilizing only three Gem Slots.

Hope that helps![/details]

They also reported this on eventscrubs…and the bashing has already started. I guess I should have known better than to think they would actually mature…
