Guile could be a bann char. now,
I wasnt even doing nothing real crazy and manage to get wins with him,
dont know why they felt he needs to be faster he was already hard to beat
, + 2 sonic booms in 1 combo then flash kick? there really is no way to get in now- this needs to be restored to the original
Not sure about total damage but I’ll check today… but I just know I hit a dude blocking with it and it did at least twice as much chip as her original Ultra (that was disappointingly low though :-/)
Also I REALLY REALLY like Juri out of the new characters… I just need to figure out how to incorporate her “charged” fb’s as I think you can get multiples in combos…
And yes EX2 is garbage… I bought mine with Chuckie Cheese tickets… and then sold it to some kid for $60 on eBay… SUCKER!!!
GGs to everyone in super last night. It was nice to see so many people interested in SF again let make sure it stays this way.
Hiryu: Thank you for providing a venue man well more accurately a big thank you to your wife who let you provide the venue. As a fellow married man I know how this works. You have several Makoto tricks already. For what its worth I think she might be a good main for you.
Eraser: Your Bison is as good as always and thanks for the match up practice while I was using Guy. Its really early to say still but if I had to guess I think that match will be in your favor. Your DJ looked really good to.
Lycan: You and your jager man I swear that stuff in in your veins now. Thanks for letting me take a look at the strat guide and for the random smokes. This morning is a reminder of why I dont smoke on the regular anymore. Also get your ass up and come mow my lawn.
Ruckus: I dont even know if you lurk here or not but really nice Vega. You were frustrating the hell out of me in a few matches. I can definitely see how he got beefed up.
Fly Mike: Use the hori for as long as you want man. Also the buttons on it are stock so if you hate them let me know and I will get some better buttons for it, I had been meaning to do it but I started having my SE modded first. I didn’t get to see you play much super but I expect kool aide smile all over the place.
Squabbler: I agree Cody v Guy is actually a really fun match. We need to test some specific stuff on wake up for Cody though at some point over the next few days
ZoJoe: Yet another damn Bison. Nice to see you again man. Your and Hiryu’s Mak could not be more different yet still effective
Jan: We finally got you on an arcade stick. Believe me its much easier to use than that busted Xbox pad. Getting used to it will take a while though so get ready for a learning curve
Bishop: If you post here, nice to see another Guy user man. We will have to compare notes after getting in more time with the game.
I know there are a few people I missed and I am sorry for that. Hiryu’s apt was crammed with people playing. I will see everyone at PP on Tuesday.
Yes, but people that know how to play against Guile from the OG days see nothing that new. He’s good like Champion Edition days, but maybe not even that since too many characters are ahead of him…besides, it’s about experience vs the character and recognizing when you can get in/out of his stuff. I guarantee you were aren’t going to see Guile winning tournaments out this way at least, the top line may shift a little out here with players, but I don’t think it’s going to be a Guile vs Guile fest…
If anyone needs to play against Guile to learn the matchup, I’ll play anyone that wants to if they are afraid of the character in general.
I will also say this: There has been a LOT (complete understatement) of Guile complainers in this forum over the past year. Every single dedicated Guile player has complained about matchups and lack of opportunities for the character except for me. If the complainers are NOT winning or getting top 3 consistently anymore because Guile is “better” now, I’m going to call you guys out on it like nobody’s business.
Never have I seen so much complaining about a game and balance in my life when the game was more balanced than any other SF. Back in the day, Guile players were the ones not complaining, it was the Ryu/Ken players because they hated getting thrown. Guile was more of the technical character but I’m almost embarrassed to say I still use him from back in those days being associated with it because all I saw the past year was complaining.
(Exit angry rant)
With that said, Guile is not going to be like Sagat. He will have bad matches. Dhalsim will give him problems, Viper will give him problems, but he will be better “feeling” for the players. I just don’t want to see any excuses if the same players are still having issues in tournaments.
GREAT GAMES and times at Hiryu’s last night! Thank you very much for hostin!!
Sev: Agreed. We’ll both get better a lot fast if we stick together and share info on Guy Jutsus. After you left I made it my duty to figure out a decent fuckin AA with guy and I got S.rh as the best option when you don’t have meter. Even with meter I prefer S.rh since you get a mixup after. You can run(qcf+any kick) then do either the slide(qcf+any kick, mk) or the overhead kick(qcf+any kick, rh) but make sure you do the overhead meaty if you got for that. Also I recommend you use the target combo(S.mp, S.fp) then run cancel(qcf+lk, lk) for rushdown. Since Im the only Guy I’ve seen or heard of using that, I’ll name it “The Bishop Rushdown”. It’s very affective from the experience I gathered yesterday. I hope you stick with Guy man. He’s too cool not to play
Lycan: Good seein ya man and good shit with Juri(JuJu). I really believe that she has A LOT of potential so please stick with her man. You don’t to worry about whether or not I’ll stay commited with this version of SFIV because mos def will be. I love Tekken but my favorite fighting game of all time is 3rd Strike(a SF game). Really, after entering in these Tekken/BlazBlue tournamens over these past few months I really realize that I’d much rather play a 2D fighter competitively than a 3D. I just prefer 2D fighters and with SSFIV being a more “complete” fighter than the last I’m gonna be reppin TOUGH! YA HEAR ME?! FlyMike voice Also, that Propell n Vodka was pretty good. You now have my trust when it comes to drinks. lol
Jan: Good shit with Blanka/Honda. Had fun and I need the experience.
Lookin forward to seeing everyone and gamin this comin Tuesday. GET HYPE!!!
GG’s, good shit and THANK YOU to everyone who came over last night! It was a blast for me personally, and I hope everyone had a good time.
Thanks to Squabb and the gentleman whose name escapes me at the moment for bringing over Super. I apologize if the place got a little crammed, but I don’t think I’ve had so many dudes every in my place at one time lol. Good times regardless.
Also a special “Ultimate Triple or Nothing fo Reals dis Time!” shoutout to FlyMike and Lycan, you guy’s MM had me and I’m sure the rest of the room rolling. Comedy gold.
it seriously feels like I got ran over by a fucking dump truck last night! *
Man… Last night was fun! There was like 12 people playing Super…
A big thanks goes to Hiryu and Heather for letting us play at your pad! Thanks for the drinks a for letting us play till like 3:30am! Sell me that damn Alienware, please!
Flymikey: Where’s my hot-n-spicy at??? LOL…EPIC Vodka/Taunt MM’s!!! You still ain’t got enough skillz in Soup or Tek!!! Get in the lab you fool!
Sev: Man that fucking entire bottle of Jager disappeared in just a few short moments it seemed! I need to stop hanging around you guys! You fuckers are a bad influence! Nice Guy though. We need to talk some startegies later.
Eraser: Your a child… When downing a beer, your not suppose to leave it 3 quarters of the way FULL…lol…hahahahahaahahahaha. That was hilarious. You have no chugg skills man! Bison and Deejay for the win. Epic Rose vs Fei matches!!!
Squabbler: First off, go get some rest! Second, your Cody sucks. Thirdly and most importantly, last night was full of laughs! All the way from Best Buy to the last drink.
Jan: Strawberry Milkshake??? I am still laughing about that shit right now! What did you think if Super???
ZoJo: Cool hagning out with you yesterday! How did you make it home last night? Everything cool? I kinda remember you walking home right?
Miller and Friend: good meeting and gaming with ya’ll. Thanks for bringing over the other Super-setup!We will game in the near future!
Rukus: Good seeing you again man! Don’t dissappear again for another 7 months!
Bishop: you slaw…Real good fucking Guy though.
**PLEASE READ HIRYU: **
There is a match-up that I must see happen!! You have to unleash the Evil Twin Cheshire Cats on Ghetto Otis downstairs. This is a fight that must happen! Be cautious though. That little runt from downstairs rushed me down last night and Focus attacked my counters! You must put the twins in the lab and have them practice their combo’s.
Hiryu: Thanks for opening your place to us. I appreciate it…and the white castle burgers you gave me were delicious! I used Hakan a few times and he seems like a really fun character to play. I look forward to playing around with him and the other “new” characters in the next few weeks. See you on Tuesday!
Lycan: I’m so glad I finally got to play Super. To tell you the truth, I felt like I had been burning out these last couple of weeks. Super has really been a breath of fresh air. I can’t wait to try out the new matches. Let me know if you ever try the Strawberry Milkshake…
Squabbler: Thanks for bringing the game over. It feels good finally being able to play Super especially after getting more and more envious of everyone and their great-grandma’s aunt has been playing it.
Bishop: GGs last night. You should come out more often, man!
FlyMike: Your increasingly drunk running commentary/shittalk during your streak was hilarious! I especially liked the play-by-play whenever you’d do a couple of random butt drops followed by the most random walk-up oichios.
Shot outs to ZoJo and Eraser! My fellow Flow chart Chun Li victims yesterday afternoon.
Oh trust me. You guys will definitely be seein me on the regular now that Super is out. I’m a full-time Street Fighter, part-time Tekken player now. I stay no where from Hiryu and Powerplay so I’ll be at all the Bi-Weekies from here on out.
