He's just trying to illustrate the strong correlation between having no major faults and being high tier. I like it. I think it's a clever visual presentation. Too bad some of the text is hard to read, but i'm sure someone with superior graphic design skills will make a better template in the future.

Conceptually, the most confusing area is the center of the has-faults/well-rounded axis. If a character is in the middle, does that mean they have no faults? Or that they only have minor faults? If it's the latter, then the left side should probably say "major faults" instead.

The further they are to the left the bigger their flaws are. The more they are to the right the more well-rounded they are. So someone like Fuerte has big holes in their game that are easily exploited while someone like Ryu is pretty solid.

Well, wasn't planning on getting this but I got it for real cheap. SFXTK sure does look like an ugly mess compared to this. Although, I guess 4 characters on screen can explain that.

I was used to the L, M, H setup for combos thanks to MvC3 and SFXTK but things seem to be different with this.

Right, but how would you describe Yang who's right in the middle?

I am not sure if you knew which grab I was talking about. I'm talking about the one where he jumps toward you and grabs your back. I have no clue of the name. I am not talking about the one that cammy or guile can do. If that is the grab thanks lol. I just confused myself lol

I thought you were talking about his QCF+P command grab in the air, not his front-flip one. In that case, stay on the ground and swat him out of the air with cr. fierce or df. LP.

So yeah I've been practicing more. Think I have really improved on my skills. I know most haven't played me before, but I'm posting a video of my latest match so you guys can observe how I play and can give me pointers.

Here's the vid.

Also I don't know what video capture program to use. FRAPS lags way too much and stops recording after twenty seconds. Also the slow framerate is from the program. When I play the game its buttery smooth 60 fps.

EDIT - I'm Juri. Can't believe I forgot to put that.

I'm assuming you are the Ryu player. If so, you should stop jumping forward a lot, no reason to as Ryu or any character for no reason other than wanting to get in. You should be more comfortable sitting back chucking fireballs and anti-airing any jump-ins at first. And calm yourself when getting punish opportunities, you aren't maximizing to even close what you should be doing for those situations where you can punish. You hit Juri while she is still in the air when you can wait when she hits the ground and is in recovery state to land a combo. And don't use hurricane kick from fullscreen, it's easy to punish for most of the cast and should be used as a punish when you know the character is gonna throw a fieball.
