MvC2 is one game I never got into 
I stop by there a few times a month to browse the used stuff, I like the D&D game but I wish there was even a vanilla SF4 around the Mountlake Terrace area.
Ayo, so if anyone has played it, how is Makoto looking now? Iāve recently picked her up and am having a fair amount of fun with her.
I played against a Makoto the other day and she definitely seems better. All my cross up attempts lost to fukiage no problem it seemed. Ultra 2 seems better than before because it caught me out of the air really easily and fully comboād. s.strong is still an awesome poke and EX Hayate is very fast, and breaks armor. You can punish people who like to focus pretty much on reaction even from damn near full screen.
Dope shit. I like it.
Man yo. So I get my AE DLC and shit. I go online with my Yang and start bodying niggas left and right. Play a couple of matches, get 1KBP and had like 600PP (cuz I lost a couple of matches due to dumb mistakes and a lot of lag). So right, Iām feeling myself because Iām climbing the ranks and shit. Iām all 131st Yang IN THE WORLD (on XBL), and likeā¦ 5500th ranked overall IN THE WORLD (on XBL) And so I take a little break.
Now, my little fifteen minute break goes by and I jump online and lose to this Oni player. There are a LOT of Oni players online today. Lost 5BP, no big deal, whatever. NEXT MATCH, I fucking get disconnected while I was whooping this really bad Yun. Lost around 300PP. I jump back online like, āYou know what? I can make it back real quick. Niggas are terrible today.ā NEXT MATCH, I get disconnected while whooping some terrible, unsafe Oni. Lost another 100BP. Now Iām pissed like, āThe fuck Comcast? You canāt be doing this shit to me right now.ā LAST MATCH, I decide Iām gonna try this shit one more time. I start banging out with this runsplash-dependent Fuerte. Bodying this guy. Didnāt even make it into the second fucking round before āYou have been disconnected from XBOX Liveā. Iām down to likeā¦ 135PP now.
Fucking Comcast.
Now that my rant is done, here are my impressions:
Oni is THE guy online. Iāve fought at least twelve of them. Oni is an interesting character to fight against, too. lol. Not GREAT, just interesting.
Yun is just as hard to beat as people have said. His lunge punch is so safe from almost every range and every button. Especially Jab and EX. If spaced even remotely well, it puts him just outside of Yangās jab/short range, and sets him up for a throw. lol. EX leaves him safe on block, too. lol.
Yang is my nigga. Takes clever play to win convincingly, without being Makoto (giant-brain fighting game savant). His slashes all seem to have wildly differing timings to get all three slashes (or lag was fucking with me). Altogether though, heās the most fun of the bunch for me.
Fei is a mystery to me right now. Iāve fought two online and they were obvious tier-whores. Had no idea what to do except FlameKick and Rekka. D:
Evil Ryu is less popular online than I expected him to be. I fought one. He got handled.
So since there are no trials for the new characters, where can you guys point me to learn some bnb combos for the new characters?
the sfiv forum perhaps
Yo Seth is feeling buff. Iām going to really honestly no backing out try to work with that character. I like his new fast movement rush down style and Iāve been trying to work on back dash and focus punish with tandem so I can command grab people who block. Also, Iāve been seeing a ton of Adon counter hits lately meaning his normals may have been buffed like the devs saidā¦ but I want factual frame data and can not find it.
Sagat: the anti-yun.
Evil Ryu: Actually pretty tight! Played him for a few hours today against wenzelsaurus / icd-3 / chrisMASHERS (lol) and I couldnāt put him down. Every time I played I went back! Until I got bodied by traceās yun. Then I had to pull out my sGAT. GGās yo
I feel that Ken can hang on his own against the twins following the theory that a strong offense is the best against them. Same goes for Sagat.
hi, just moved into the area,
anyone wanna play through xbl? add my xbl id āahhlunā, thanks
Iām on XBL, but I havenāt really been on AE much. You can add me, but be prepared for some HELLA boring shoto play. Iām picking up Rose and Ryu & Ken these days.
