    QUESTIONS/INFO THREAD

    Whiffing anti-air grab on hit? So I was going to post a video to go along with this, but my recorder literally blew up (goddamn shitty ass Dazzles), so I'll let the community help me out with this and figure out if there's any use to this. Here is a "new piece of tech" (I'm not sure, I've...

    Ottawa MK casual videos - featuring fraudulent Sheeva play

    So yeah, just trying to get some exposure for the local scene here and getting some of us guys hype. Here are some videos of us derping around during casuals, and me raging at how fucking terrible my 8 hours old Sheeva is. Of course, critics and all that are welcome and yadda-yadda. Sorry for...

    T12: Results and Shoutouts/recount thread.

    Time for some proper shoutouts: Firstly, props to everyone who made top 8. That was my goal and I scrubbed out, but I'm glad both of the players who took matches off me were strong players. @ Jer: Nice Mileena, don't worry about the NW matchup it's ridiculously in his favor since everything you...

    T12: Toronto Fighting Game Championships - SSFIV and MvC3 (+$500), MK, BB, Tekken, SCIV and 3S

    Good stuff to everyone who showed up. I'll confirm for having to play him as my first match that Arch as a fucking insane Scorpion, most difficult I've had to play against so far (and I took a match off him so hey! I think I'm the only one who managed to do that in the whole tourney besides...

    T12: Toronto Fighting Game Championships - SSFIV and MvC3 (+$500), MK, BB, Tekken, SCIV and 3S

    Yeah I meant more as in after the tourney in someone's room and not at the venue itself.

    T12: Toronto Fighting Game Championships - SSFIV and MvC3 (+$500), MK, BB, Tekken, SCIV and 3S

    Are we having casuals on saturday after the main shit? Because I'd be down. Also I'll bring some booze probably if that goes down. Lin-kuei edit: Also there's no point in stealing anything from Shady, everything he has is free.

    E3 Live Stream/Speculations, anybody?

    So far, disappointments all 'round. Maybe Sony's conference will change that but I'm not holding my breath.

    Bomb Patch on Tuesday

    Basically, that means you'll have less time to input ff+3 (or bb+3 or bbf+3 or whatever you want to do ). This is to make it so you can do ff, wait half a second, then use his 3,4/3,3 mixup accordingly. It's the next best thing besides changing the actual input for the whole thing.

    Want a sig?

    Did my request get lost in all the noise? :(

    What criteria did you base your main character choice on?

    Since this game is fairly new, I sort of skipped that step (but not quite). I look at what the established top players said and made my choice accordingly. Most of them agree on at least a few characters being better than others (Raiden, Sub, NW, Johnny, Kung, etc.) so I just went with that...

    What criteria did you base your main character choice on?

    My system has always been the same in every game I've played, new or old, good or bad. There was an article on the old SRK that actually covered it pretty well but it was lost in the noise of the upgrade, so I'll try to summarize it best I can (the article was a lot better than what I can say...

    how do you pressure with 2,1?

    Make them scared of punishing your follow up. Go either in Parry or Teleport from time to time to keep them on their toe, this forces them to not counter attack you right away. Then you can mix up with more 2,1, 3,3,2/3,4 and throws. Don't be scared of going into block from time to time either...

    How to deal with people that keep hitting D3 or D4 when I get up close?

    As Nightwolf, remember that Shoulder Ram is unsafe against crouching attacks, so don't spam it up close if they get into the habit of doing that kind of stuff. The best way to deal with them is to sit just outside the tip range and either poke with f+4 (nut kick), arrow or shoulder in between...

    Want a sig?

    I'd love a Cyber Sub + Regular Sub sig since they are my two mains. Maybe back to back with ice effects? Or one across another. I don't know, anything you can think of will probably be good, the ones you made are pretty beastly. Text should just be TTR since my full name is a little long. I...

    Weird kabal issues/glitches?

    So, last session we've had around here had a bit of weird issues when I faced our local Kabal main. Two spring to mind as the clearer ones, and I'd love to see if people can duplicate it: 1) EX Run vs regular Ice Parry: Kabal "hits" CSZ, who goes into his animation, but Kabal can move around...
