gg Artheas before the lag kicks in. i couldnt believe my hakan was one punch or blocked slide even away from his first ever victory, against your akuma as well!

you could probably tell but i am trying more different character to find a one that i might like to improve on. cody seems pretty fun. i love the knife when someone is on minimal health so i can lp away and chop them to death:)

but i cant understand why chucking rocks can block fireballs but not the knife:(. i thought the knife would go though to be honest. just need to learn the spacing of his normals and a few useful combo now

Really, i was sure your Hakan had won a match before :eek:

Yea i noticed you choosing a lot of different characters. When i saw you pick Gen, i was like, O..K..

With Cody, f.Mp is very useful. Any follow ups normals will most likely counter hit if the opponent attacks and you can continue into a full combo. A simple combo i like is s.HP, cr.MP, criminal upper.
He has FADC into Ultra as well of course.
 
had some good games last night, not sure if completely scrubs were on or not but beat them fairly easily apart from one high ranked sagat spammer.

really improved on my option select game last night aswell, just need to sort out my rushdowns which i still find a pain. think im getting a stick today woop!
 
I had some fantastic games last night actually.
Infact I played against a very good Ryu player and I actually was so impressed with my zone play and keeping his locked down when I had the chance in the corner mixing up my play style...
But lag sometimes does really throw me off and I am beginning to feel the frustration of playing online sometimes.
 
yeh lag is the number one issue with this atm, just ruins a game and turns what should be an easy game into a hard one.
i dont mind losing but when its because of lag that is just stupid.
 
Cav, your zoning is pretty immense now, Guiles new recovery is insane!

You didn't use any of the promised >2 hit combo's on me though :p

I didnt have much of a chance to corner you tbh cause you kept crossing me with that pesky knee type jump in kick (not sure what it was... jumping MK?)
and then string it into a series of lights/mediums (what was the string? You did mention it before but I forgot it).

But I did eventually figure it out and tbh I should have been FADC backwards during those crossups into FKs. (Was trying to cr.hp/standing hp uppercut which didnt work and vanilla FKs didnt either).

But my combo strings were just god awful. Also you were right about Deejays link (I think its a 1 framer link). Even practising Guiles Cr.lp, cr.mp Im still not able to get it against a standing training target. I still have to practice it.
 
crossup mk/non-crossup fp (same jumping arc so it's beautifully ambiguous)
clp
clp
cmk

You can do a mk instead of the clp's if you're close.

FADC is very bad as I can just cmk on reaction for the untechable knockdown.

Just out zone DeeJay as Guile thrashes him, and block the crossups, escape and zone again. You don't have to do damage to get out of the vortex.

Got my Street fighter TE stick from shopto this morning, ordered Tuesday night.

It was a round 2 version instead of the first edition!

Can't wait to get back from work to test it out as it's my first time using a proper stick.
 
Got my stick today as well....well it was actually delivered to my g/f's work so she has it at the mo, she said the box it's come in is massive :eek:

Looking forward to having a play tonight with it :)
 
Kreeeee are you alright to do my stick for Sunday? I'm supposed to be heading to a friends house next week for some games of SF and they only have PS3's. :o
 
Thanks for the ass kicking lass night guy's.

I know it must be tedious playing against nubs but I'll (hopefully) not be this bad forever.

Cav even let me win one. :D
 
im gonna be around for a few hours if anyone wants to play (ps3).

also kree, whats your psn?

also, im gonna try and explain this here goes.. what are the most common setups to intentionally make your opponents anti-air whiff?

this setup happens to me quite often but usually the moment is gone before i can recognise what just happened. basically the events happen as:

something happens (a trade of some sort?)
opponent is already jumping at me
i anti-air (srk whatever) and it whiffs as hes already past me and my AA goes the wrong way
followed by huge punishment

so hopefully someone can make sense of that description :p

Glad to be of help. :)

I think the first thing I need to fix is what to do when close up because I'm just getting trapped with cross overs and crouching LP, LK, LK etc. I can just about muddle through from far away but I'm still missing too much and trying to do my Ultra without setting it up.

When I'm pinned in like that how do I get out? EX Tiger Uppercut or just keep blocking until my opponent tries something else?

oj, look up the safe jump video posted earlier in this thread (a few posts back).
Click to expand...

cant see any video on safe jumping, but thats not the setup that gets me, im not grounded with this happens.

its some sort of cross up setup because when i see people do it, it seems intenional... it cross's me up and makes my anti air whiff, but it's always a follow up from something that happens... i think its some sort of trade of some sort... im pretty sure it nevers comes from an empty cross up from nothing, and im not grounded.

also, whats your psn?
