T-T This is why America always got bodied in fighting games.

Let me try again, I played guilty gear A LOT but there was few comp around and I dominated the local scene(I won every tourney, all 2 of them) whereas marvel was played by almost everyone and the scene evolved a lot(mpeg videos helped). I also lost a year worth of college in 2001-2002 because of mahvel and it was great, I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Marvel has TACs already, we don't need any shittier mechanics added to the game like combo breakers.

Only change to X-Factor I would accept is to just make it a free cancel. I wouldn't want a change in values either. You go up and it's too powerful, you go down and the mechanic is worthless.

X-Factor is such a dumb mechanic that I wouldn't mind it changed to Pandora levels of importance... or outright removed for that matter. It solves a problem nobody had.

Also it seems like the Godsgarden Twitch stream that is showing Arc Revo can't be up for even 5 minutes.

I hope you got some enjoyment out of them, too. :p I would have written more last night, but my wife wanted me to come to bed.

I think you should stick with your Ammy/Morrigan/Hsien-ko team, but your order should be:
Morrigan (Soul Fist)
Hsien-ko (Senpu Bu)
Amaterasu (Cold Star)

Your Amaterasu had no assist support at the start of the round. Senpu Bu isn't going to do anything without Hsien-ko being gold. You could try running Hsien-ko on point backed by Shadow Blade to get armored at the start of the match, but IMO it's better to earn the armor than try to cheese it in at the start of the match.

Cold Star is one of Morrigan's best assists in the game. I notice you don't use her s.L, fly, j.S mix-up, which is really good. You tend to ground dash, which is very unsafe. Amaterasu is one of the best (top 10 IMO) anchors in the game, but she's not too great on point because her damage is so low.

If you're interested in playing this setup, let me know and I can share some Morrigan/Amaterasu tech with you. I have plenty because I tried to get Morrigan/Dormammu/Amaterasu to work for a week.

Hey guys, can you do me a favor? Some of you may already know, but I've expanded the 8WAYRUN Stream Browser to cover more than just 3D fighting games. If you view it now, you will notice that the listings now have "tabs" at the top where you can restrict viewing to a specific category... for instance, you can have it show only "2D Fighters", "3D Fighters" or "Brawlers".

http://8wayrun.com/streams/

Which category a stream is listed under is determined by which game they are playing. Right now only "approved" channels get listed in the browser, and only "approved" games get routed into categories. So what I need help from you guys is to help me fill out the approved channels and approved games listings.

http://8wayrun.com/streams/channels
http://8wayrun.com/streams/games

I basically just need you guys to tell me which games and channels are missing from the lists... and of course which categories they should be under. The games lists are grouped under single titles, so for instance "Street Fighter III" also includes: "Street Fighter III, Street Fighter III: New Generation, Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact, Street Fighter III: Double Impact, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike". If a channel is playing any of listed games, they will be put under Street Fighter III.

Also, do you guys think I should make a category for anime fighters? What games would be listed in that category?

Also, any chance I can get my name listed under the GAF members who stream section of the OP? Any chance I could get my stream browser listed as well?

A good list of Twitch streams are at http://www.twitch.tv/team/fgcpros. A lot of them might be inactive, but it's still a good list you can reference. Some streams I can think of off the top of my head are the Japanese streams Yubiken and team_exe (+ team_exe2).

Does the stream browser take Ustream as well? I think A-Cho uses Ustream (and used it for the recent AE 5v5).

Yes, it does take Ustream, but uStream does not have an API to scrape to see what streams are live... so right now only Twitch/Justin and CyberGame.TV streams will ever show up in the live list.

Is KOF considered an anime fighter?

I'm perfectly neutral about last night. Didn't hate it or love it.

Yeah, I know all this, but I was kinda just shooting the shit last night. I'll use the appropriate order next time. Feel free to PM me your tech, but I'm afraid it would probably be wasted on me. I probably don't have the know how, skill or will to implement it appropriately.

Seems like an unfair distinction.

That just means the anime categorization doesn't mean much. Maybe you should change it to airdasher? Then you'd be describing gameplay and we'd know where SNK games go.

Forget marvel monsters or injustice monsters or street fighter monsters, the "when's _____" monsters are the worst. Tournaments run multiple games just hold that shit.

Anime fighters just means air dashers. Which is why when people say ANIME GAMES SUCK and start talking about marvel it's funny :p

Seeing how the genre was made popular by Capcom and how Darkstalkers/VS series/cyberbots are all it's prototype form.

Hell Injustice has more in common with BB than Street Fighter as well.
