I want that as a t-shirt!
Yessss, me too. That would be a rad t-shirt. :>
Rad is the perfect word for it.
Also, every major Sim player except for Ryan are bailing… hmm…
What does that mean Shawn?
REAGAN FACE SMASH!!!.. Dammit, I’m having withdrawals from playing…
Basically, Arturo and Adnan are saying that a few of Sim’s key normals (standing lk), jumping mp, etc are much shittier. And arcade edition is a heavily offensive game in where it doesn’t pay to block. Consequently, Sim is dropping down in viability heavily. No longer can you use standing LK to break focus while people are trying to get in, and whatnot.
Oh well, it was a good run.
Yeah, because they are all whiny fucks to begin with. Ryan is the only one smart enough to know the character is still good, even if he does have a couple hard matches. I mean, unless the twins both beat Sim 7-3 I don’t see how any of his other match-ups got any worse and he definitely didn’t get any earth shattering nerfs in AE. It is hard to play a character that doesn’t have at least a few really hard match-ups.
Daigo, Mago, Tokido AE top 10 list for fun:
- Fei
- Yun
- Yang
- Akuma
- Viper
- Ken
- Sagat
- Cammy
- Makoto
- Zangief
I see this list changing alot in the future but it isn’t bad right now. Most of these characters are very, very close as far as how good they are. Just like in SSF4, I would say the next 5-7 characters down are just barely below these ten so the list barely matters.
Damn i didnt know they hurt him that badly.
Eagerly awaits Dreams tier list rebuttal post

Dude, you’re not dropping him, are you?
Yeah Sorry, Bison and Balrog not in top 10? LOL…
Let me tell you guys a little something about Japanese tier lists…Birdie and Bison top tier in Alpha 2. That’s all you need to know. ROFL.
Yun and Yang DO beat Sim for free. Worse than Rufus and as bad as old Cammy. Dudley and Makoto just caught up to him in their match-ups. The Sim / Bison matchup isn’t even anymore due to the nerfs removing what you needed to keep him out. Ken is better so that’s a more even matchup, no big issue there.
Anyway, I can’t drop Sim because I’m too invested in his play style. I can’t effectively do anything else. I’m just frustrated. I felt like with Super I actually had a chance to compete against most characters. Now it’s Super Street Fighter 4: Rushdown Edition and blah.
Shawn,
I was thinking of doing the 5v5 KoF style. 1 match, 3/5 rounds. Character locked. 2 out of 3 entire sets!
Jacob Ford,
Please check your PM’s!
If you stick out a move with active frames when Yun or Yang are on the way up/down (stand medium kick) the dive kick game is effectively taken away unless you are down then you have to play with it like Rufus mixups. I don’t believe Yang is on the same level as Yun, he just does not have have as effective stuff.
Understanding this dive kick can not be anti aired correctly all the time is the first hump to get over but you would be surprised how well active frame moves work against it.
I’m hosting tomorrow at my place again, 3 pm.
If you can make it or need some info PM me.
This is just like how all the viper players said they were going to drop her. Saying she’s mid/low and whatnot.
I’ll put this in bold so everyone will see it:
I will be modding sticks at Game Galaxy in Antioch on Saturday, February 12th.
I want that tattooed on my ass.
I’m sticking to my guns, I’ve gone too far with the family man. Guile for life.
Well for me I just look at it like this: We’ll be playing console Super until at least Evo as the tournament standard, so another good while, and even then when they release the new ‘patch’ or whatever they definitely aren’t going to leave everything identical to the way it is now in AE. I think Sim still has the tools to win either way, but I can understand getting annoyed at nerfs. I think Guile and Vega both got it worse… especially since Vega was very ‘meh’ in console super as it is. Also, Viper players need to just shut-up forever too, they are never going to switch and they know it. The character is fine.
