Good games with Art finally!!

I just bought a 2nd hand stock HRAP3 for my PC and was testing it out. Then saw you online and faster invite you for games! Those stock hori buttons are t3h suck once you get used to the Sanwas! And damnnnnn, that lag switch you use is awesome! It just had to lagged during my combos! (actually, I'm just not used to stick yet...I missed some combo inputs with other people as well).

Ok, excuses & jokes aside..your Boxer is damn good (as always). But it seems that I'm jumping in too much...which I realise, but I still keep doing it cause I'm trying to get the sweet spot which Bison's j.hp can hit Balrog while evading Balrog's cr.hp.

But you were getting a bit predictable with the cr.hk. What other pokes does Balrog have?

Good games there! Oh yeah, I play Chun Li and Honda as well....(and a very scrubby Gief). Just holler if you're bored with Bison and I'll change character!

I don't do EX PC as much anymore. Sometimes just teleport back, sometimes just EX DR. I noticed a few times I managed to do meaty attack combo against you. You weren't trying to do normal headbutt right? that's 8 frames start up and no invulnerability. It eats meaty attacks everytime. I try not to meaty attack when you have EX bar, cause then you'll have invulnerability moves to counter the meaty attack.

What tips do you have for my Bison against Balrog?

....and eat Balrog's Ultra in the face?

Urghh..this is what a lot of people tell me...turtle more. I frankly dislike turtling. I'm such a "in your face" player that I'll go on the offense almost every chance I get. I played against a REALLY REALLY good Ryu which I have a lot of problem beating. He then adviced me to play turtle. After I tried that for one day, managed to win matches against him....but I didn't feel like doing it again. I must have a certain mood, then only I will turtle. Else, I'll just rush that shit down!


And for the DR...I knew it the Ultra could beat it...just testing my luck on whether you knew or not. LOL.

Walk forward MK, HK, HK, MK, HK...not too good..EX dash punch chews 'em up.

Unfortunately, Alvin....the SF4 mechanics do seem to favour the turtles.

I swear by the Lariat technique....except for Cammy.

Wah....you guys are like teaching a baby to walk when he hasn't even learnt to crawl! Slowly la. Do the normal combos first. Then only slowly go on to the faster ones.


I love the MtG cards, being a former MtG player...those cards are hilarious!

This means either your timing not correct, or your zoning/positioning not correct, or both.

Those guys that know Guile's cr.hp hitbox will jump in without attacking at the spot where Guile's cr.hp will whiff (if you stay on the spot). Then they can proceed to punish the whiff. Experienced Guile will take a step forward, then do cr.hp.

Art is correct in his notation....b+mk x2, db, ub+mk, ultra.


The better use for that move is b+mk x2, EX legs, Ultra. This will enable Chun Li to connect her Ultra slightly less than half screen distance. Beware though, b+mk x2 has HORRIBLE recovery. Stop at first b+mk if it's blocked. do b+mk x2, EX legs Ultra only if the opponent whiffs a move and is in recovery.

No wonder I didn't see much of you guys online last night!
You were all power levelling at the offline gathering!!!

Bring more LCDs and PS3s over next time!
MOAR set up = MOAR play time!

LOL

HEY! This sounds like Calvinball!!

Can add me as well! I'm also a weak opponent!! I lose a lot to "moderate" opponent like keen2keen!

Btw, good games with Art earlier!

edit: btw, my PSN is "Boogalogist"

I'm starving for the details!!! quick!! spill it!!!

What is this "normal stick" you are talking about?

Most guys here use HFS3, HRAP3 or Madcatz SE or TE.

Please guys..if you are using sixaxis to play charge characters, use the d-pad instead of the analog stick!

Moving the analog stick from left to right is much slower than the d-pad.

That's cause the HRAP3 and TE stick (or any other stick in the market) comes in square gate. Most asian arcades' stick uses square gate. American arcades uses octagonal gate. If you like, you can just easily swap out the stick's square gate for octagonal gate.


In the beginning, normally pad users prefer to use pad even if they have a stick. The stick is not something that you can pick up overnight. Arcade guys have been using them since their early teens and are more used to it. Console guys more used to the pad. However, after the pad user uses the stick for about 2 weeks and get more aquainted with it, they'll go like "How could I ever think that the pad is better than the stick?!". This is provided the stick you're using is not those crappy stick...but those with Sanwa parts.

rawfish or shinjite is selling off their sticks or something. You can check with them.


Oh yeah...Honda mirror match is "awesome" as well.....staredown time out!
