Street Fighter (SFIV, SSFIV, HDR)

I thought I'd have a change tonight and am playing as Bison :D

charge characters are so different :) started on new practice account
His new ultra is so funny :D

Feel such a noob with him, just keep doing headpress and footsies into double knee.
Teleport is pretty fun for mindgames aswell

K wanted to play as well, but i couldnt change the amount of players in the lobby. it would have been nice to see you against Kreeeee.

You could have left the lobby and created a new one. I don't think Kreeee would've wanted to play a 3-man lobby tho (just a guess).
It does suck how you can't change lobby settings on the fly.

She's real tough to play with, I've scrapped back up to winning about 50% in ranked matches but can't cope with decent players yet, think I lost 15 straight to Luke's Bison :o good training though. I found a video of fairly high level play with her, against gouken too.

LOL at the damage scaling around 1:50.

nice video, this makoto is really good! i could never move like that, and i play too defensive to move like that anyway. i am not sure why i took her up in the first place.

and i just realized hakan is going to have a lot of problems against defensive characters. i can certainly see balrog destroying him.

I'm mucking around with new characters so I'd get thrashed, never strayed from Balrog before.

I'm happy to play my crap characters online as that won't affect my tournament characters.

That's pretty much what Bison is, poke poke poke scissor kick. :D Can do this like 3 times before being out of range.

I don't use the headstomp much at all anymore though, only to mix it up every now and then when they are in block stun, sometimes it catches people out and is pretty safe to do.

His psycho crusher is good now though and with his new ultra you can get the opponent into a 50/50 guessing game. Knocking them down, get right next to them and as they are getting up do the ultra, if they guess wrong (about what side you will land on) they eat an ultra. :D
 
i figured last night that the best way of getting round ibuki is to stay in the air as much as possible. that way she cant do that stupid hump back jump on your neck move that everyone seems to spam on xbox live bc they have zero skill.
 
Staying in the air as much as possible isn't that good of an idea. If your jumps are forward jumps, you'll get owned by anti-airs. Backward jumps means you're corner trapping yourself. Neutral jumps are pretty good in this game, but i'm sure the neck breaker can be timed to hit when you land.

If you block the neck breaker, it's really punishable. Free reversal Ultra.

Try to advance more cautiously. When moving forward, hold down-back intermittently. After they get blocked and punished, they're gonna do it less and less (unless they're daft).
 
Some moves are so fast that they are almost impossible to block online, you have internet lag and tv input lag so if you block when they are almost half way to you it's probably going to land. Low block when your not advancing, if you're low blocking a lot they will probably not risk it. It's easier to go from low to high block on reaction to a jump in.
 
Fighting games will always suffer from this, teching throws, blocking overheads and crossups, and reacting (such as rog ultraing a fireball on reaction) are so much harder online.

Just adjust your game if you want to play online or do what I do and whinge about it :p
 
Been playing this over a mates lately, enjoying the new characters :)

Where is the cheapest place to buy?
