W. Lafayette, IN Gatherings Every Tues.. RANBATS Every other Tues. First Ranbat 1/25

I’m up for it

Me. 10x’s Me

I’m down for it

cool
everyone know where my place is? when should we start? i’m free pretty much any time after 5 or so
also, since i know warhippy plays on a ps3 pad, if you want a ps3 setup you’ll have to bring a ps3, though we can hook it up to my tv if you want.

I’d be down but I’d need directions.

Im up. Whats your apartment number again? and also when you want us over.

Ok, for those who need directions, call or text me: (765) 714-2494.
It’s apt 18-10.
6 works for me if it works for you guys. We can order pizza or something too.

Should I bring a PS3?

Wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring a ps3 and ssf4 on it. I’m pretty sure everyone has a controller that works on the ps3.

If you could that would be awesome. If there isn’t a PS3 present, then I probably won’t show. Or at least leave fairly soon after.

Alright I’ll bring my PS3, with a controller and a copy of SSF4 none the less

so I’m starting to fool around with guile. I figured since I’m the lamest Chun Li, he’d suit me well.

YES MY NAT IS OPEN! I’m just joining endless battle rooms and saying hi!! IM SO HAPPY!

Man guile is so free.

Hey Tony, went into the lab to see what you could do about full screen Blanka Ultra 2 chip kill:

Jump forward Ultra 1, didn?t work, no matter how I timed it I just couldn?t get passed the second hit, I even tried turboing the input but still couldn?t find a time it would work. Jump forward Super also failed.

Ultra 1 full screen after smash, worked. It didn?t work if I did it immediately after the flash, but the first hit of Blanka?s Ultra 2 seems to have a delayed hitbox, where it takes time to travel to the outer part of the screen, not instant full screen like Seth?s. So if you time it correctly you can get the first hit to whiff against Raging Demon and Akuma will reach him before the second hit.

Super after the smash didn?t work, Super moves too slow to beat the second hit.

Ex Demon Flip immediately after flash (mashing to get it to come out on first frame) Worked! Worked for Palm, Worked for Kick, Worked for Throw. This really seems like the easiest option, if you have EX. Also you don?t have to do it immediately after the flash, you can do it at the same point you need to input the Raging Demon (as Blanka?s fist is coming down) and it?ll still beat the second hit.

Roundhouse Demon Flip after the flash can?t reach Blanka full screen, I tried dashing or walking forward and then HK Demon flip but I couldn?t beat the travel time of the first hit, guess it doesn?t leave the ground on the first frame?

Jump forward over first hit, EX Demon Flip and LK/MK/HK Flip all failed for throw, palm, and kick.

Jump forward over first hit, jump forward into Dive Kick didn?t work. But occassionally it would trade, but if you are in the chip kill health region this trade would definitely kill you and would only be useful for an epic scripted double KO.

Jump forward, jump forward anything but dive kick will get beat clean out of the air. You can?t jump forward then empty jump Ultra or Super or throw or anything because of the EX Electricity sized hitbox around Blanka?s body.

Forward Kick Teleport into Ultra 2 worked, as did Forward Punch Teleport into Ultra 2, which was much easier. The timing isn?t strict at all, just so long as you cancel the teleport before it stops you will hit Blanka. But obviously Akuma?s Ultra 1 is probably better for the matchup in general, still it?s an option.

Jump forward into Kick/Punch Telelport cancel into Ultra 2 failed Hard. Even if I let the teleport crossup before the Ultra 2 it still wouldn?t work, I?m starting to think that Blanka?s Ultra 2 is actually symmetric on both sides, like some crazy full stage ultra that they just lazily programmed. Awesome.

Hope that helps, I say save an EX for Demon Flip just in case.

Also Chris: Ex Headstomp, Non-EX Headstomp!!, Ultra 2, Ultra 1 (hard as hell to get a charge ultra out because of the weird flash timing), HK Super, all work, those were all I tried before I got disgusted. Screw Bison.

As far as I can tell it is on both sides, it’s just a giant rectangle…I think your right about them being lazy with it

Can akuma punish blanka ball with teleport cancelled into U2? If so that would make U2 the choice ultra in that matchup I’d think.

No, I tried this last night while I was testing out U2 just to see if I could just recommend changing Ultras for the match instead, but it’s too slow.

Hey guys was just looking through the forums and saw this group. Thought it was pretty cool. I go to Purdue and will be a senior next year. Been playing SF4 for a while now, still nowhere near as good as I want to be though. Just wanted to say hi. I main as Zangief btw and like playing with Akuma, Rog, and T. Hawk aswell. Gamertag is BTFU88 for Xbox if anyone wants to friend.

Hey welcome to the thread, btfu. If you’re in town this summer you should try to get some games in with us. Also good games last night everyone, it’s great that we’re all sort of at the same level where the matches can go either way, and thanks for hosting Mike.

Yeah wont be in town this summer, back home during the break. Hope to maybe next school year.
