I had a Knight Rider turbo boost from from parking deck to building to steal on a dude gif for that Mythbusterā€™s shit. I usually have gif for everything.

Bro idc that shit is weird. ā€œBut sheā€™s 1000 years oldā€ literally sounds like the fictional version of ā€œbut sheā€™s mature for her age!ā€ type shit. Like someone explain to me how itā€™s not just justification for sexualizing an 8 yo body.

Real shit what is their even to be attracted to? No tiddies, no ass, and a punchable face.

The opposite is pretty weird too (adult body/young biological age, and itā€™s not even just an anime thing. Like in the old Star Wars EU there is a couple examples of clones having sexual relationships and when I think about it it feels kind ofā€¦unethical? Like you can physically be an adult but you canā€™t really replace 16/18/20 years of emotional maturation can you?

Basically anything fictional that isnā€™t a 1:1 comparison to real life shit the lines get blurry.

Gotta get my FGC pass back. :rofl:

@PlusFrames did you grab BBCF for PC?

I know there was someone else that got it too, but who?

Edit: Anyway, someone @ me on Discord if yā€™all set a lobby up. Forum notifications kinda take too long to actually reach me. Iā€™ll be watching anime like a damn weeb on the mean time. :rofl:

Anyone up for some SC6?

Iā€™ll try to get online later. Maybe in 4 hours, I think.

Canā€™t take my pass. Iā€™ll start telling people stories about Karateka :rofl:

I have it, but I havenā€™t played it much besides the tutorial

Real talk I been lost my FGC pass :man_facepalming:t4:

Thatā€™s the thing I donā€™t understand, how is a character so much harder to play and at the same time so much weaker in nearly every department.
King has godlike Oki too compared to AK.
Also for some reason AK ch B1 combos are horrid damage wise, pretty hard and force you to side switch basically.

So, about that CF.

Where can I sign up?

na fam, Iā€™ve learned the hard way that this is never a good idea. Well I get womping stomped by someone cause theyā€™re using the mechanics the way the game intended, thatā€™s on me for skipping the tutorial.

People used to clown me at locals for never finishing the insanely long and time consuming Under night tutorial

We should be on even ground then, assuming the netcode holds up. Wanna run some sets later?

AK is just badly tuned. His damage on some essential moves is weirdly low (d3, df1), his moves have little frame advantage to leverage offense even on hit, and King has been buffed so much (given a lot of AKs old moves too) over the course of T7s life that AKs advantages over King just dont matter. I didnā€™t play tekken very much before 7, but apparently the movement in 7 is also nerfed severely compared to older games, which hurts AKs more poke heavy/whiff punish style.

also ill do some bb in like 20
or SC if volt is too busy watching anime

It will at 6:30 pacific standard :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Shahenzan kinda nailed the answer about King vs AK. The main thing is that most of the cast is significantly stronger in T7 compared to Tag 2, while movement overall is worse (backdashes are shorter, steps are far less evasive). AK was put into T7 more or less unchaged from his (in that game, very strong) TTT2 iteration, and even with a few seriously unnecessary nerfs (SS2 in particular was a baffling change), and his main strength is punishing whiffs. Not only does the system make it harder for him to create those whiffs, but the rest of the cast has gotten beefier too, making his job even harder.

Heā€™s not all bad, but heā€™s one of the handful of characters in the game that I wouldnā€™t consider ā€œgoodā€. Heā€™s just kinda meh, and unlike most of the other ā€œmehā€ characters, heā€™s extremely popular, so you canā€™t even get away with people not knowing the MU most of the time.

Canā€™t Iā€™m pretty busy today, and besides I donā€™t really like running into games without a few proper hours of lab time.
