The SS Tenka Thread: The Resurrection

Man that aint owned read my response for why I stated that
anyway would you say this is the best sam sho yet?
how much faster does it play?
And what’s this I hear about you guy’s saying UKYO>>Hanzo?
man I hope that’s not true?

You have a PM waiting. For once I’ll practice what I preach.

sigh This I’ll handle now.

DOA4 still isn’t gonna be any better than VF4. Graphics and a poorly copied engine will only get you so far. And then VF5 will >>>>>>> DOA4 a few months after. Then DOA5 will for some reason remove floating juggle combos.

I don’t know how to stay on topic

I needed this game before, but now I really need it. Arg stupid work is blocking the site. Since when is snkplaymore a gambling site? Stupid websense.

my internet time is limited for the moment so im gonna ask 2 quick questions:

  1. who’s currently top tier (and why if you’re feeling generous)
  2. is iroha good? she seems kinda meh. her stand C isnt nearly as fast as it looks; meaty fireball mixups dont seem very awesome at first glance; her super sucks and does no damage

maybe,

-yumeji - tools (air, long, close).
-ukyo - all round good, s.KICK->multislash/super is too good.
-zankuro - great normals, too good damage on his bnb.

there were others mentioned to be top though i cant remember them.

the following are characters ive seen played really well who may or may not make top/high tier due to being too technical or one dimensional,

-earthquake (has great mixup, crazy good s.K, easy to lockdown though, weak air game)
-hanzo (is too good and simple to boot in the right hands, technical though)
-enja (the damage he does in the right groove can guarantee half bar hits pretty well, his slide kick move is hard to guarantee though, easily locked down by strong fbers)
-amakusa (tend to think hes top tier but doesnt get used enough, hes got the best range in the game prolly and plays really good keepaway, his air ball attack is hard to read maybe even impossible and his low high fb game is great, missed potential?)

Hey Buk whats up…yeah for all the research Ive done Beelze is right…everything matches up nicely.

I love how when the game first came out, everyone said Earthquake bottom of the pile, shit tier. Now he might be tops?

Where does Gen-An fit in these days…still too 1-dimensional?

…seriously.

he might be, his whole game is his fb.

its sorta weird too in that you can move through it safely at first but then it solidifies, ppl may have found a way around it crippling genans game…

Top Tiers:

Well from my freinds trip to Japan Beezles list is pretty on the money.
I still wish I could have went so I can see how my playstyle woud fair.
Apparently he was still beasting with Kuse, so go fig. (He couldn’t make
that tournament thing though)

Genan in my opinion is still quite good, but just not SS2 Genan good.

No…this thread cannot fall to the wayside…it seems the “other sword game” has taken the heat out of this one…

I personally feel SamSHO was the MOTHER OF SOULCAL…so this thread should rise from the ashes…and itll be alive when the game hits fellow importers the world over…DIE ANKIKOU!!!(BOSS GAOH)

Trust me, once it hits PS2 or somewhere in the US gets the arcade version, this thread probably will be as live as the SC3 thread. We just don’t have the game yet.

yeah stop with the pointless spam bumps unless you gonna add somthing to important not"SC3 is ghey!111 or lol dont deye threed!"

anyway did cham cham fall off the tt chart? :sad:

Iroha is excellent. She doesn’t do much damage, but she is probably the best keepaway character in the game (apart from maybe Amakusa). Her down+kick I believe has a really good frame advantage–so good that you can typically spam it at close range until your opponent is forced to back up. Also, after okizeme, you can typically cancel into her knife throw move which makes her safe and puts you half a screen away.

All of the Iroha players I have seen player her in Ten, so I imagine that Ten is her best suited spirit/groove.

I don’t know, I saw some tournament matches where some cat was using her real nicely. I just want to know if her cat-scratch move is any good any more, cause in all her videos, no one really used it. Does anybody know?

Well is her combo starter good? I would imagine that would be nasty if you do d+K into combo starter/throw/overhead mixup if the frame advantage is that good. :wow:

Cham-Cham vs Kusaregedo.

I’m basically a noob to SS since I never owned a Neo-Geo and was never really into Snk games but this one really has cought my attention. I have a question, I’ve seen the characters and have taken a liking to Jubei and Ukyo. I’ve hearn you guys talk about Ukyo but nothing about Jubei. Is he really unpopular or he just sucks or what. Also who is the Sagat lookin guy in the last row near the right. He looks kinda cool

…seriously.

Ok so thats Sieger. Any info on Jubei
