played some matches. once the matchmaking became decent. hadn't played since before Ed

and, man, Ed is so weird. feel everything he does has priority over my stuff
 
For the love of all that is sacred can we PLEASE have a Laura costume without any of her assets being thrust into your face? I mean, I don't mind it, but it's difficult when I have to go round my cousins, whose mother is a devout and conservative Muslim. Had to switch to Karin for a few games smh.
I'd pay upwards of $10 USD for a full BJJ gi alt for Laura.
As long as she keeps the dope half-dread undercut she's rocking, I'm down.

Damn, you have to fucking sit tight and refrain from pressing buttons needlessly when going against a Rog. Just had a match where I was being very patient while keeping my distance as I was winning by a good margin, then he gets one hit in (low target combo that somehow hits everyone lol) and away went about 80% of my health. The next round I simply said fuck it I'll just go ham, I swear I couldn't press shit, he must have gotten like 7 counter hits there and a couple of CCs.

I would like that.

But capcom.

LOL

What is this, SF2? "No throws!" XD

I guess he was pissed that Gief just throws all the time or pushes you to the corner? He was playing Guile and just booming his way through like he should. Easy mode really, so I don't know what he was expecting.

Like, why are you still playing this game a year in if you aren't trying to learn and get pissed at throws even if you win? Lol
Why the fuck is a Birdie getting pissed at grabs? HES A HYBRID GRAPPLER!

In retrospect, I'm kinda glad that the game forced me to do 10 Ranked Matches for Fight Money, otherwise I wouldn't have realized how far I came since I last played Ranked.

I got tunnel vision so hard during that match that I didn't even pay attention to his CA gauge. If I did, the chance of me blocking would have been higher. Same thing happened when we played a bunch of casuals after the set.

Not used to that extremely patient, reactive style. I learned some stuff thanks to the casuals, but it's still pretty weird/tough.

Goddamn Toronto. We'll get payback next season.

I'm probably the only one who had a chance against Flux than those who he faced on stream.

Because I used v reversal.

I'll meet you at next season's Proving Grounds.
 
GG's Vulva, I haven't played that much in a very long time. Although I'm clearly outclassed, I couldn't stop anyways because I was salty about getting beat down constantly. I was pausing at the beginning of the last 3-4 sets to see if you were going to leave. Since you didn't I just kept playing.

ggs, I think about half way through my mind started having troubles focusing, so if the button presses started seeming trolly or anything I promise it wasn't meant to be. I just was exhausted lol. It was fun though, we should play again (maybe set a hard defined set limit though lol)

I really hope they can make Dhalsim less flowcharty in future updates, cause man, his TP->air normal->blockstring stuff is just mindnumbing after a while.

This isn't a power level criticism, it's a "please make him more interesting" request.

You know you can just jab him out of it unless it's part of a setup after a knockdown.

EDIT: Unless you mean when you're playing him? Ahh ok. I have the same problem with FANG in that he's designed to be aggressive and frametrappy when I just wanna play keepaway.

i never screamed so much watching a tourney.

Red Bull proving grounds was the hypest stuff. The lesser known players are where the hype is at. EVO is going to be a bloodbath

can someone confirm to me that mtl and toronto players are in santa monica right now? I totally missed this but would be up for grabbing a late ass dinner if any of them are around

Yeah, those setups are what I'm talking about. This isn't coming from a player POV- scrub sims are easy to blow up, it's about those setups (and the lack of any other decent ones) making Sim feel really stale and difficult to personalize.

Every Sim does the exact same thing and it makes the character a flowchart.

FluxwaveZ if you see this before you leave the area let me know if you and the rest of team mtl or toronto want to grab some food before you go. I live right near santa monica and can show you some great places to eat.

I'd PM but I know if on mobile it doesn't always make it clear you received a PM. That said hit me up with a PM and I'll keep active watch on here.
 
So. Assuming I buy a lot of characters with fighting money and then buy the seasonpass, the seasonpass wont get cheaper even though I might have like 50% of the content already?

Heh, it all comes full circle. Sorry for missing your comments above, and have fun at the ramen place, guys.

Sorry, I lost interest playing SFV after the CFN "update". I even thought of starting fresh with a different character to spark my interest again but couldn't bring myself to play this game again.
Wow you can beat Flux eventhough you don't play anymore?? You must be amazing! Great job, man.

I watching sf4 footage. God I miss hugo, I hope abigail is just hugo. I just need to be able to hit someone half way across the screen with a medium and fuck up their whole day

Yea LES plays extremely reactive in a game where it's really difficult. His AA game with Bison is really solid.
 
I always liked how Earthquake in SamSho was so big the game hade to zoom ut to fit him onscreen

Opportunities for me to shill KI just come so naturally in this thread.

Killer Instinct has the same thing. Aganos, Gargos and General RAAM are just straight up gigantic compared to most of the cast, and the camera is very noticeably pulled back when you're up against a "normal" sized opponent.

I have tried so hard to like KI, because it does SO MANY THINGS so well.

But I really hate the breaker system and like 90% of the character designs.

I'm with you there. Even Mika has a relatively modest costume.

Someone made a fan mod of the default Laura outfit during the beta and it's still better than anything she ever officially got.

I like my T&A in games, but I always thought her outfit made no sense.

Fair enough, at least you gave it a shot.

For whatever it's worth, I wasn't a fan of the breaker system at first but once I REALLY started to understand how it worked and how many options characters generally have, it became a lot more fun for me.

I have a feeling of cognitive dissonance whenever she does her anti-air grab while wearing her story mode costume. It's just not possible that they're still in there.
