*** Xbox 360 SFIV - Second Official Tournament ***

[ojste]

Just played my match with RichieUk and I won 2 -0.

Lucifurr (Balrog) Vs RichieUK (Gouken)

nice vids lucifurr, you seem to be improving nicely from your last tourney vids

you should replace c.lp x3 into c.lp, c.lp, c.lk, headbutt... its just as easy to do and more damage + its long enough combo to hit confirm. you can also combo your ultra from the headbutt, which is definitely useful

lol i felt a little depleted without the fireballs lol, 1 in 5 were coming out and then at the wrong time

was fun and intense

good luck in the next rounds mate

Cheers buddy. Good games Look forward to playing some more friendlies with you in future.

 

[ojste]

Dont forget "Blanka fix" as well
Tbh I need a proper controller, the Xbox 360 one is a bit naff really. Waiting for the Madcatz pads to be released at the beginning of next month.

 

[Kreeeee]

Thanks mate. I was thinking the exact same thing about doing light punches and then finish with a headbutt.

As for the headbutt into Ultra, I just can't seem to do it at the moment in practice. I really need that to help complete my Balrog game as I can only ultra to capitalise on other's mistakes at the mo.

 

[ojste]

Get a 360

i'm getting my bros old 360 soon i think but i cant afford to double dip on games and peripherals! i can just about justify buying one stick lol (which i still need to get )

really hate the 360 dpad though, played it on the 360 a few times now and just can't stand it

anyway going a bit off topic now

im not sure if c.lp connects to headbutt as i dont use balrog but i know c.lk definitely does and c.lp into c.lk is pretty easy.

the trick to chaining certain upwards charging moves into ultras/supers such as balrogs is instead of doing your normal charge, down, up etc. is to do charge down then, UPBACK to retain your back charge. balrogs ultra is wierd when hitting people in the air though as you have to change way it hits by pressing punch/kick to get maximum damage from it. you should head over to shoryuken fourms as theres a whole thread on it in the balrog section

 

[Lucifurr]

Cheers Ojtse. I will have a look at Shoryuken. Neo Empire is also good place to go for Street fighter stuff too and they are holding regular tournaments in London.

What stick are you going to get? im probably going to get a hori fs3 - seems reasonably priced too

you up for same games later i dont think ive played you yet

 

[ojste]

im waiting for this '2nd batch' of TE sticks to show up, checking all the websites pretty much daily at the mo but no luck yet. heard reports of it coming late march/early april but havent seen anything yet

and yea im always up for a game, ill be online for the next few hours

 

[Kreeeee]

Europe won't get them until after mid-April.

I have the Hori EX2 for the 360 though and am building my own stick with Sanwa parts.

Mind taking this discussion to the SFIV thread though as I keep expecting people to have posted saying they've played their match

 

[RichieUK]

Just played my match with RichieUk and I won 2 -0.

Well played Richie. I was nervous fighting you after our last encounter but Iam so pleased my more agressive play won this time

You got lucky Haven't played much since i got RE5

But seriously, ggs. Getting stronger with 'rog everytime i play you.

 

[Cavallino]

Well Im glad to say Im uptodate with my games so....

Shall I do my jamesdavid impression now ?

 

[Kreeeee]

I'll email the competitors that are paired up but haven't played their games this evening.

Please don't do a Jamesdavid3, I don't think I could handle 2 of him.

 

[Cavallino]

I can't handle 1 of him
Jamesdavid, why did you get knocked out of the tournament, now I cant have the pleasure myself
(I'll add you to my XBL so we can have some friendlies!)

Kreeeeee et al. - I am up to play my games anytime this week. No travelling outside the UK

Cheers m8. In all honesty, I was really lucky in that first round as you were pounding me until you performed the shin shoryuken Ultra which gave the oppurtunity to get right back in the fight and win. Also in the second match you dodged my ultra and I was lucky you didn't take the round from me.

I'll look forward to our next encounter

Heehee.
You up for some now? I can rig my camera up to take pictures of my face if you like

Btw is the tournament going slowly for you still ?

Its a shame cause I wish I could take you seriously but I can't help but just grin and chuckle

-~Divine~Wind~, I've sent you a friend request through the website. I should be around tomorrow night but can't guarantee any times at the moment. I may be able to commit to a particular time at some point tomorrow. Otherwise, some point on the Tuesday would be good for me (I'm at home all day Tuesday). If it can only be the Tuesday, something like 2pmish would be good, as I'll almost certainly be able to play then.
