We already defeated Sheng-long! The Akuma Video Thread

Nah, the fei player was a runback from someone else.
he put money in for him so I dont consider it a real MM.
Ferdi Guler is the highest rated abel/seth player on XBL.
He’s also one of the top players in my country.

The fei player is current no1 btw.

Some poule matches from that tournament



Or in other words you ignore anything that doesn’t agree with your view. Good to know you can’t hold an honest debate.

Well I can see you aren’t going to hold a honest discussion. Basically you cherry pick other people’s posts and only respond to things you want and just write everything else off as “Oh I didn’t say something like that therefore all these points are invalid even if they are related to the debate.”

**Your point is that casuals aren’t as good at determining match ups because people try much harder in tournaments. AM I WRONG?! DO I NOT UNDERSTAND THAT POINT CORRECTLY?! CAN I SAY IT ANY CLEARER?! **

My point is that even if that is true there is also a lot of other things that go on in tournaments that skew results. Because of that you can’t say casuals are any better or worse only that you have to consider everything. I didn’t claim you said none of the other things exist, I am pointing out your view is a little too narrow. That’s it!

I mean you have had 4 different people of various skill levels (including someone I would rank way above you) come in and tell you otherwise and yet you can’t seem to get it.

Screw this, I am not wasting time on someone so stubborn that they can’t even hold an honest debate.

Ferdi, is his gamertag ll Seth ll?

Correct. I dont think he uses that other one anymore, maybe because of people hating on him.

I’m not the one being dishonest here. You are arguing against something I never fucking said. In the debate world that is known as a strawman.

Straw man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I ignore irrelevant points. You argue that nothing is 100%, well I never said anything was 100%. That makes your argument not relevant to what I actually said. Or you bring up stuff I already addressed.

But I’m not willing to have an honest discussion, even though in order to have an honest discussion you need to actually read what HAS BEEN DISCUSSED.

Yes.

And I already covered that previously. READ THE DISCUSSION

Why would people be hating on him? Is he too beastly?

Tell you what. Your turn. You prove to me I used a straw man and I might believe you.

Till then Bye.

I already pointed out in previous posts that I didn’t hold a certain position you were arguing against. Case in point you argued that something wasn’t 100%. Great, I never said it was.

But I guess you’re outta here.

Beastly would be an understatement. He used to rape people with Abel so imagine what he’d do with Seth, especially as most people online don’t learn matchups etc. if you don’t know the Seth matchup you might as well put down the controller/stick and not play :L

Nice play. You sure like your ex fireballs. :slight_smile:

I’ve seen some vids of him. He really runs a train on other players.

I really can’t believe you’re any older than 14, and if you are…well i’m terribly sorry for you and for anyone that has to hang with you for more than the time of a sf match.

Oh and I really liked the part where YOU said that alioune came here to be a smart ass. L O L

All I am going to say to this is John Choi. The guy is notorious for being thrown into losers eliminations from the get go and battling back into finals.

He got owned last 2 tournaments, last one he didnt even make the bubble.
He’s got alot of haters because he likes to flame scrubs who put up videos in a 30 set where they win 1.

Wow I’m surprised he didn’t do too well at the last two tournies. Maybe he’s too aggressive?

That’s like Imstilldadaddy, UK Guile, top ranked on XBL. No doubt he’s good, his skill is certainly not reflected by his points, he only puts up games he wins and if he win 1 in a FT10, he won’t post the ones he lost, just the ones he wins and the hatemail he sends is hilarious :L

Back to the point, I think everyone should just drop this little feud thing going on here, it’s getting kinda pathetic and I think we should all just drop it and start posting things that will contribute to the community and help us Akuma players get better. No point in feeding each other’s ego’s by throwing insults back at one another and seeing who can have the last word.

i saw tokido do a crossup j.hk vs alouine
how does that work?

I guess it was in the corner right? In the corner any of the hard jump-in attacks will cross-up, Sf4 mechanics who introduced this cross up in the corner where in other games you would always end up at the front of the opponent when you jumped over him even when he was in the corner.

Tokido probably used that in part of a mixup between j.hk, j.mk (will cross-up almost every time) and j.lk which will not cross-up almost every time.

Yeah, that was Tokido’s mix up. The problem I found with the HK is you can’t do it meaty, it will whiff. That’s why you see MOV dashing forward on wake up in the corner, he knew Tokido had to wait until he was up before using that setup.

vs cammy after a lk tatsu sweep in the corner you can whiff a s.lp and immediately do j.hk…it’ll look like a crossup, you will land behind, but it has to be blocked like a normal jump in. Really tricky, but here comes the problem:

  • if you aren’t frame perfect by 1 frame the opponent can block it like a crossup
  • if you are off by 2 or more frames you’ll completely whiff and end in the corner which is bad.

But provided you can do it frame perfect like Tokido it’s almost unblockable. I tried yesterday afternoon with a friend and although it’s quite difficult to get it consistently (100% impossible online, we were offline and getting it only 50% of the times) it’s a beastly setup.

Same shit goes for f.throw (in the corner) dash x1 whiff c.lk whiff s.lk jump hk. This is even more difficult timing wise but it still works the same. You’ll get a crossup j.hk that has to be blocked like a normal jump in

Im not really liking the way akuma is turning out to be. It seems as if he’s becoming more of a ‘memorize 1000 setups, use one of them and let your opponent guess wrong’ kind of character instead of one that requires solid gameplay.
