The Official Ranting Thread

Flipkick can’t be used like a reversal. 8 frames startup and no invincibility. It shouldn’t be possible to mash that unless you got them 8 frame frametraps :stuck_out_tongue:
Doesn’t Abel’s lk have a pretty good range? It has 5 frames startup though so it’s a 1 frame punish.

Could be the EX one in question.

EX Flip used to make me go “wtf” too, but in all honesty, that’s how it is in Tekken, so I can’t be mad. Also, doesn’t Abel have st. LK? Have you tried punishing FFR with standing LK? Even then, the move’s a 1-2 frame punish, assuming you’re even close enough to do so, but FFR isn’t bs in any way? Ok guys…OK…

Ah screw it, I’m done with that game.
Today was another day full of idling in an endless lobby, later this evening I finally found one.
It lasted not even 10 minutes.
Ranked is annoying and it’d take >200 more wins for some decent BP & entertaining players to face,
if there are opponents from the same continent online at all. Which is not very likely.

Sorry was playing endless with HDJ D:
But europe is honestly lacking endless battle players. It’s really frustrating sometimes.

I’m east coast us and have a decent connection across the pond. I just never remember to put my thing on “any”

It’s pretty rare for me to have a decent connection to America, usually only works well with ISPs from Canada. :confused:

But anyway, I’d rather play a game I don’t like as much as SFxT then wasting any more time not playing at all.
Last 2-3 weekends already were idle fests. In the prime time.
Really like SFxT and prefer it over most other fighting games, hoped for a better time with v2013.

I haven’t been having too much issue with the game on PSN. Maybe that’s why all this sounds alien to me…

Where you playing from anyway?

Argh, screw these online Heihachi players and their unreactable overheads and unblockable jumping HK. Also how do I keep walking into Akuma’s sweep. D:

5 frame startup, reaches farther than Hwoarangs, you do the math

Reaches farther than Hwo’s? That’s gross.

Back to ranting, noone plays on PC after like 11 PM. :confused: It just dies when 11:00 hits. The only way I can play after that point is to play people outside the US, which is highly unpredictable in terms of net quality.

Oh and I threw a guy who rolled out of the corner 3 times in a row. :smiley:

I hate losing to people just because they have the match up advantage. Like dhalsim, bison, guile, and many other against Hugo or gief. Its IMPOSSIBLE to get in on these characters if the opponent is any good.

That feel when no bad matchup

Im sure it’s already been discussed but this shit of jump in jab jab jab jump in jab grab. Jump in grab. Jump in jab jab jab jump in jab jab jab abc launcher. Omg i get so angry about that. I can stop that shit with ogre or gief but no really with Hugo unless I guess right with ex moonsault press or ex backbreaker or feeling adventurous and throw out a raw launcher and hope it hits.

So in the first time in like…ever since I’ve played fighting games, I got double perfected…by a A ranked person who was doing the same move over and over (it didn’t help that I’m still getting used to the arcade stick but that shouldn’t have happened) I just looked at my screen and felt like Gohan when he went SSJ2 against Cell, however I did manage to win in the next match so it wasn’t all gloomy for me. Also, I need to stop dropping combos!

I only scored double perfects on people but never actually got double perfected

feelsgoodman

If I see a perfect coming, I go for that morale victory. :tup:

dat feel when people do reactable shit that you know you can AA… except you can’t because online. T.T

Full screen avalanche stomp with Lars is a legit tactic vs Law in a typical online match no joke

I’d say stop fighting 0-1 bars, but you’re on PC so…

Bars make much less difference than how good their PC is compared to yours+settings, I can get lag free matches vs 2 bar players (or at least close to lag free) and get yoga teleports vs 4 bars depending on that unfortunately :confused:
