Changing subjects, I found a good deal on a used car. Anyone know a good candy wholesaler?
My XBOX 360 says I have played 150 hours of SFIV, my PS3 says 6 hours, Apparently I have played 5200 or so matches and won 84% of them according to the XBOX stats with all characters…if only I kept track of my offline stuff then I can see how long I have really played…
But yes, Dimo, like CHris says, I can show you Guy and Ibuki. I know how to use everyone in the game now efficiently and have moved to random select random Ultra against everyone so I can learn matchups and situations against every character…We should have 2 setups this weekend for everyone (like today) and I have exactly one copy of SSF4 left for Monday for XBOX 360 and one for PS3 on preorder…
Would you be willing to post up any Guy info here. I dont trust everything I have seen so far in the Guy threads.
Wha…yaaa…JAGERbomb!
Weeeak.
What Guy info do you want to know about? Anything specific?
Sev: I will probably use Akuma for that match-up. Lot better cross-ups and i can get out of hairy situations a little easier.
Ok guys, going to go pick the other boro people up. Be there soon.
Honestly just your general thoughts about him. Most of what has popped up in the Guy thread has been all over the place. People saying one thing works and then saying the opposite. I saw you had him listed as general low tier in your assessment in the last thread and am curious as to why.
As for specific questions to go along with that.
-Is EX Bushin kick the new EX Messaih as people claim?
-Is there a reliable way to get people to stand up so the bushin chain becomes an option?
-Is his super as useful as Able’s situationaly?
-Is bushin flip elbow drop an overhead and is it safe on block?
I have him as lower tier because the other characters eventually will be better overall used characters. Guy is a bit more complicated and even though my tier list stated what it did, there is very small discrepancy from Top Tier to the near last tier.
To answer your questions:
- EX Bushin Kick is good on wake up, but nowhere near as good as EX Messiah. EX Messiah gobbled (and still does) almost EVERYTHING no matter what you stuck out. For example, the crouching forward kick FROM Guy AGAINST Guy (which hits twice) hits the person attempting to do the EX Bushin on wakeup. THis is just one instance. It is a good move, but nowhere near as good as Rufus’s EX Messiah. Recovery is not that great either if the person blocks depending on where your opponent is.
- A rendition of the Chain can start with Crouching Jab into it, so that will help a lot, but his focus is very good to start the chain. He also has a Target combo as an alternative if you can’t get the last hit of the chain, which is only good if you have EX Elbow or FADC into Ultra or Ultra in corner…the second hit of the target can be ducked by certain characters from combos with crouch jab if they are ducking when the combo begins.
- Abel’s super is entirely different. This is an anti air super that can also be connected in the corner.
- It’s not an overhead. Depends on what you do “after” the move. If you try a jab, you will get thrown. If you jump straight up, you have advantage, but for the most part it is safe if it is initially blocked, but what you afterwards is key and realize that you can walk under the elbow depending on your recognition of which variation (Light, Medium, Heavy) your opponent does and your ability to recognize that.
Gdbell:
Okay, I really don’t understand you man. In person, we think you are pretty cool. You seemed chill and were a lot of fun to hang out with. On the forum, it’s like you are a totally different person! I mean, some of the stuff you say is really not well-thought out at all.
For example, while you admit you aren’t a “great” player, you still make comments like how Blanka is a tough matchup for Sagat, and other things in that vein. You also place a lot of importance in online gameplay, plus you also make excuses for certain things.
Another thing, why do you insist on calling people out in this thread? If you recognize you aren’t the strongest player around, why call peeps out? It’s not like anyone here is afraid to play you. In person. You called out Duckie, and Sev, and Eraser. Don’t make backhanded comments like “you remember from the last tourney, it didn’t take me 5 minutes”. That’s a sure way to come off looking like a scrub. You want to play Sev, or Eraser, or anyone? Show up. You don’t have a ride? Ask, maybe someone can spot you a ride. What you don’t want to do is challenge guys and say shit like “free money”.
Do you ever hear anyone here talk about how “good” they are? I know you never directly say that you are good or whatever, but you certainly imply that you don’t think you’ll lose to any of us. It comes off all cocky. You never hear eraser, or Sev, or O make any sort of claims about their skill. Shit, O actually beat Sanford in a match, but he doesn’t go around trumpeting that. Cylus is damn good too, but he never toots his own horn and always tries to be helpful. The Nashville cats are that way too. It’s like martial arts man, the better you really are, the more you realize that there is plenty you don’t know. And that there’s always someone out there on a higher level.
Lastly. Stop with the chump. Don’t make excuses for him not posting like “however SRK makes you wait awhile before you can comment/post for some reason”. I’m pretty sure there’s no wait to post when you sign up. It didn’t make you wait when you tested out that “other” acct, did it? He can post if he did in fact register. But until he actually shows up and backs it up with actual skill, he doesn’t exist.
I hope you take this constructively. You seem like a good dude. Just come out and play us. But until you show up on the regular, don;t be surprised if people disagree with your statements.
Squabb, I accept your challenge!!!
Flymike, We will see this wednesday if you say weak!!! Bring your drinking A-game!!! No bullshit. We are getting fucked up! No excuses… Im gunna see if you can really hang
I’m down with the challenges. On May 8th money matches with Memphis, anyone want to pay cash to play me?
The beauty of the drinking contest is that no matter who wins all the sober people win for the hilarity alone. We should record drunk Mike and Drunk O for posterity.
Shawn: If I was gonna be in the ville I would be all for it man. I want to see both your Mak and Sim given all the changes made to him.
I won’t be up at GG today they forgot to come and pick me up.
I’m sure they did forget!
How dare they forget! [media=youtube]jZkdcYlOn5M#t=0m25s"[/media]
Savages lolol
So today, my mom called me around 9AM and asked if I wanted to go have lunch with her. To which, I obviously said sure considering I see her maybe once a week or once every 2 weeks. Well I get to the restraunt and come to find out, one of her good friends / co-workers tagged along as well. So while eating she said she had this crazy story about something her son did the other day, mind you he’s 17 and somewhat mentally handicapped.
Apparently on Tuesday morning she ate breakfast with him, and then headed off to the hospital where she works (he stays at home as usual). So after about an hour she gets a call and he’s on the phone and says, “Mom, I just caught a troll!” Of course she says okay and plays along. He then says, “I’m hiding him in the closet right now so he doesn’t get out!”. She replies with something like “Okay dear, you can show me when I get home. I have to get back to work now.”
So the day goes on and she gets home from work. As she walks in the door, her son greets her, “MOM! hug SERIOUSLY! You have to come see the troll I caught!!”. So she agrees and follows him to this locked room in the hallway. He unlocks the door and opens it. Sitting there on the floor tied up with zipties and duct tape … is a midget. And he goes, “SEE MOM!”.
Apparently what happened was this midget salesman was going door to door, Jeffrey answered the door and freaked out. He hit the guy and knocked him out, ziptied and duct tapped him up, and locked him in this room. He then for SEVEN HOURS fed the guy skittles from under the door.
True story, I shit you not!
