I play Hugo as anchor 50% of the time, and I get tired of it some times, as all I need to do (and can do), is to use my point character to build some meter and hit with a launcher. If Hugo gets served the opponent on a plate like that (launcher), he gets to do big damage, then put the opponent in a guessing posittion, where he can loose a lot of life if guessing wrong (Many matches with sim hugo is meterbuilding zoning game with sim, then launcher into hugo and 1 mixup to end the game).
That said, if you can guess right that one time, and you get Hugo knocked down, there are a lot of characters that can really harass Hugo with multiple hitting moves and throws which hugo is free to. Also, if you get the life lead and Hugo needs to get in, your best bet is to stay outside off c.lk range and fish for a normal os’ed into launcher when you think hugo will dash forward or on reaction to his dash (for example after charging lariat). Also, find a consistent way to anti air splash when Hugo is trying to get in, and maybe also a way to anti air him when doing constantly crossup splashes (late c.mp or even c.lk as a trip guard)
Thanks for that. Ya, all of my friends stopped playing SF X T. One guy, who I was really cool with on PSN I beleive his name is PM-Moving or something like that, was on my friends list. We played for quite some time, and even ranked up together. It’s like as soon as he got to A ranked, he would kick me out of his lobbies and even deleated me off of his friends list. It’s like, WTF? Does this game really make people salty or someting? I am getting a converter for a PS2 controller and a 360 copy so I can play more people on here. I would love to play some of you guys and actually try to get better, instead of being scrubbed out by randoms in endless lobbies and ranked. I just don’t use a stick, and I can’t use a 360 controller to save my life…lol.
What really hacks me off currently is how people who played SFxT for a matter of weeks think their opinion on the game is worth a damn and that week 1 SFxT play was enough for them to make some ridiculous statement of fact about the game’s depth or future viability. What a sorry state of affairs the community is in if we’re making such assumptions after such a short amount of time. Was week 1 MVC2 anything like the game being played today? How about 3S? Of course it fucking wasn’t.
New Capcom fighting game syndrome. When the next capcom fg gets released SFxT will be regarded as good. Just like how marvel is not regarded as random scrub friendly mashing bullshit anymore or whatever people wanted to call it.
the awful throw range makes it pretty hard, unless you’re playing a turtle, they have no reason not to constantly jab or throw out random shit because of how safe his moveset is.
…So they’re doing Swaying Willow (aka" feint stun punch") during your oki/pressure, or they’re mashing Jab? Which is it, because it can’t be fucking both simultaneously.
You can’t complain about one thing, then when someone tells you the solution to that specific thing, you complain that something else beats the solution. No shit.
If throw isn’t a good enough answer to your crying about Swaying Willow, try neutral jumping for a full jump in punish.
Wahhh, Swaying Willow. Wahhh throw range. Wahhh, his “moveset” is safe (whatever the fuck that means). Holy shit, are you serious? Just fucking quit fighting games, because clearly, this shit isn’t for you.
Fucking a, I knew opening this thread was a bad idea, but my boredom was overwhelming.
I do wish throw ranges were a little better in this game though. Also I feel airthrows should be a bit faster. I see little reason to go for the throw over a counterhit.
I don’t see how people didn’t flock to chun this system is great for her, and from what iam aware her df.lk is a very reliable all around aa and it recovers fast as hell I honestly think she’s one of the best char if not the best in this game
You know what. This isn’t cool. Regardless of what the conversation was about, If you can’t disagree with someone without losing your shit, then maybe this isn’t for you either.
Well, that’s the purpose of having a rant thread: to contain all frustrations without them going out of control. We don’t want the posts here to end up in the General or Balance Discussion, do we?
Isn’t the whole point of the rant thread to rant? I’m not expecting any rational critiques or anything here, I’m expecting people to make hot-headed remarks after they’ve just lost online, got kicked by some random idiot, and so forth.
