I pretty much agree with that tier list.
I think Guile, Dee Jay, T. Hawk, and Honda are too high, but who can really say for sure.

I was just wondering because Honda seems exactly the same to me…is his new Ultra really good or something?
New characters are definitely going to change as people get used to them
Gen’s gonna rise up to A+ tier without a doubt…how can he not with his super super fast new Oga, it’s like a million times better then Jaguar tooth
I think Guile is definitely high tier, look at what people like Modinside are doing with their 94% winning percentage on Live (if that counts for anything). Still I think the problem with tiers are how people explain them. You can say Honda doesn’t feel like an A but if the ranking is based on the sum of the ratio of wins to losses for each character, you have to say specifically what matches must be changed to lower him. I think tiers should be based on counterpicks. If you have 3s or worse you’re C, a lot of 4s would be B, some 4s would be A, and all 5s or better would be S. Sure Dan had to work hard in Vanilla but certainly not as hard as Gief vs Seth.
EDIT: Actually I’m just salty and think Blanka is C tier because every time I fight Balrog I weep blood.
I haven’t been on PSN in a couple of days…is everyone online playing Guile yet?
Christ on a cracker! I head out of town for the weekend and the shit hits the fan.
Got the pop top on my ps2 and swap magic came in, so whenever melty comes in we can play.
Tony, I can fix up those cables as soon as you get the stuff you need.
Would love a fight night some time soon. It’s possible I could host, though I only have a 360 and people tend to dislike my fightsticks.
No idea why Honda leapt up the tier list. He isn’t any different, and U2 is not all it’s cracked up to be. Though him being exactly the same is a bit of a buff, it is not enough to make him A tier. Unless I missed a whole bunch of U2 and command throw shennanigans.
hi, I just back to Purdue for my friends commencement this 2 weeks
I didn’t discover this thread when I was in Purdue, are any of you on campus now? let’s play some games for fun?
yeah we totally should ayma. I just bought a 37 inch crt off of craigslist for 50$. So much less of a hassle than worrying about lag on expensive hdtvs… omg that shit its gonna be heavy as hell picking up :). Also Mike, I got the plugs in when would be the best time you could put those in at your convenience? Thanks again, also I tried plugging in the stick to the ps2 recently to mess around with yakuza and alpha anthologies, and it wouldnt work with the rj45 bridge and all. Do you think its a problem with the ps2 cord since it was a 3rd party extension cord im pretty sure, or a problem with the cthulu/imp? Think you could use my cord off a legit dual shock that came with the ps2 for the din 8 pin just incase? Anyway just wondering. Also guys we should go to EVO!
Tony, I’ll text you when I get home tonight and you can bring that stuff over and I’ll get it done tonight. I’ll be doing some of my own stuff tonight (I don’t have a ps2 cable right now actually). Did you hold the home button when you plugged it in? If not two of the pins were Xbox 360 usb rather than cthulu outputs and the ps2 needs like ALL of them. If you held the home button I’m not sure what it is, possibly a bad connection to the RJ-45 though I checked it. I’ve got a ps2 so I’ll test it next time to make sure it works for real.
Also, a good Samsung HDTV comes with a game mode that lags less than half a frame and if you use the VGA input a lot of HDTV’s are in the same range (8 ms or less).
Also, the timing of links doesn’t change with TV lag, the rhythm is the same but the visual cues are off from the rhythm. I think people make FAR too big a deal out of tv lag. Outside of tournament play it really should not matter as it only changes how quickly you can respond to what your opponent is doing.
But anyway, glad you got yourself a nice large tv to play on. Way to get a nice deal as people move out and abandon stuff.
great! well I dun hav my stick w/ me and i may borrow someone’s when we play
I probally won’t have enough money for Evo this year but it’s still a possibility, if not this year I’ll definitely go next year
Got some money and DLed a copy of MvC2 for PSN…about to go play around with it some
Finally got bored of being lazy and playing single player stuff…time to get back into 2D fighters:nunchuck:
Let me know when you guys get Melty Blood or just want to play some SSF4 casuals, I have no clue when/if I’ll be busy this week
I pretty sure there’s a 0% chance I can do it either, just because the timing with my classes with ssfiv starting @ 9a.m. it would mean I’d have to miss like 3-4 days of summer school if we drove which would be impossible to do, and I might also miss an exam. The only other option would be for me to buy 500$+ airplane ticket which would probably make the event cost around 1 thousand dollars :(.
I say we just play street fighter/melty blood the weekend of the 9-11th and have the stream on while we play would be awesome and cheap!
hey aliceinangels whats your gamertag and real name lol :D, justin right?. anyway it is strange that we havent played much at all lol we should play on xboxlive, maybe get an endless battle goin with mike too whenever.
Jacob actually, good sir, but well done on the J name. You didn’t have the same luxury as the rest of us with the whole “two dudes who you could get away with calling some variation of Tony so just keep throwing that name out there” thing. And we should definitely do some online play, Ensiferum13 is my gamer tag. As long as I’m posting, you know what else grinds my gears? Why is it that people mention Vega’s claw as a weapon not honorable for a street fight but no one ever brings up the fact that Chun Li has 3-inch spike bracelets? I mean even the new “evil” character Juri went with sensible one inch spikes. Chun=secret Final Boss evil.
I’m pretty sure everyone at purdue already thinks chun li is evil
I think the secret is that Bison didn’t kill her father, Bison WAS her father and all their bickering is because he wouldn’t buy her a pony.
lol you’re avatar just reminded me of something mike. there’s a girl in my accounting class named swan ryu
fixed
Nice fix there Anthony, I saw an avatar someone had that was Ibuki Dudley and Makoto saying “for two games we’ve had to deal with your top tier BS” and chun on the other side saying “sorry”. Good stuff.
Also, listening to this week’s version of “wake up shoryuken” I think if we get a club together next year we should definitely do ranbats and send the top guy to evo or something.
It’ll be alright, this guy can beat Chun-Li for us

Lol…so when she hunts down Gen to ask “about her father”, she obviously just wants to laugh at him for having cancer, what a bitch
She’s a real chip off the old block. And obviously Gen got cancer from his close proximity to Bison and his psycho power. It all makes sense now… Now, to get Capcom to retcon the whole storyline to match ours.
