youtube combos 4 life

[Mightfo]

VIDEO TIME?

VIDEO TIME

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_B0AXI_K124 KOF13.

Mai, Leona, Athena versus Ralph, Terry, Yuri. Yuri shows you why you shouldn't whiff a shoryu in the corner against someone with a full drive cancel meter.

then Maxima, Vice, Shen versus Ralf, Terry, Yuri. Yuri does a nasty hyperdrive combo again. Most character can do corner damage like that with hyperdrive mode, though Yuri carries to corner easier.

then Clark, Robert, Vice versus the same R/T/Y team.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZueEdy8py0 Good KOF2002 footage. wantttt

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHKCmdo8_2g HOLY SHIT DID THAT LITCHI JUST BLOCK A FULL MUUGEN BLOCKSTRING!? Some dropped combos and lol haku not blocking low against Litchi's 41236D, but regardless, good shit. VERY nice parries on the hakus' part.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KmAckbgAXo Good AH3 footage. IMO 2nd match is the most hype, though they're all pretty fucking awesome. Last match has konoha if you care, Oso. Also, autoguard on E moves with Earth arcana reminds me why I like clarice: She has a good 5E. Makes good use of the passive effects arcanas give to E moves.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnywxX5aoMo Impressively, the most hype of the bunch IMO. Melty Blood footage. Sooo good.

[Ronin Jinobi]

lol good shit on that litchi vs haku match. that haku made some questionable decisions but a win is a win i guess? not to mention it was an online thing i'm assuming

online

hakumen

good decisions

pick 2 :D

kidding. He had some good catches personally after a j.D i go for 5C > enma> that one sexy combo. but 2C sjc 2A works as well(proration kills mega damage though D: ) mugen shenanigans are fun, but only one combo is really worth it in that mode, and even then you need a 6D > 6C(full charge) >mugen setup to get the most out of it/land that shit safely :/ either or, good shit from both players.

also my makoto training progress is going somewhat well. She's different, in a good way.

Yeah, like i said, not completely smooth. Haku not blocking low in reaction to straight through is a sign of severe lack of matchup experience with Litchi. Regardless, the abundance of parry catches and blocking that whole muugen mixup(high low high high low low high high high low high) is A+++.

also my makoto training progress is going somewhat well. She's different, in a good way.

Nice!

p.s.

Note that her 2d is air unblockable as well as level 3 5d.

Her 6b is air unblock too, but not quite as useful as bang's 5c being air unblock. Still, shoullddd fuck chicken blockers if you do it correctly on wakeup.

You can go to 6a from 5b, not just 6a to 5b, on block. Cant go back the same way you just did, tho.

Speaking of 6a, be sure not to only use 6b after 5c©, or it becomes too predictable. 6a goes into 6b on block as well, and is also a frametrap like 5c-6b IIRC.

Additionally, 6c is good if you land a blocked 5b or whatever but are barely out of range to continue pressure with 6a/6b/5c. Note that it's only cancellable into specials on block though, nothing else.

lastly, blockstring->236a->dash in 2aa->tick throw

:3

Also, that AH3 video has some good Kamui footage from AH3. Second match. IIRC she does a parry combo in it.

[Ronin Jinobi]

yeah Mugen is cool for combo vid tier stuff but honestly all you really need is 2-3 stars to do some major damage. *takes notes of makoto stuff* I'll keep those in mind. Playing with a character faster than hakumen in this game is strange. not guilty gear fast, but not hakumen slow. a middle ground :O

also. kamui = <3 i'm already liking her playstyle from these vids :D

[tomato of doom]

Looks like I can make it on Friday, earliest I can be there is a little after 4 though.

Welcome

You should try and drop in this friday

[cheebz]

Yo, do you have a calculator I can borrow?

all i've got is a little solar-powered casio , it has trig log and exp functions , but i'm guessing you're talking about a graphing calculator? don't have one of those , gave the one i used in highschool to my sister.

also tu is bringing guilty gear today (i hope).

[Mr Oso]

Theres a meet up today? or did you mean friday. . .or something completely different

[cheebz]

Theres a meet up today? or did you mean friday. . .

my bad man, i was talking about at the pool hall at uta. speaking of which though, is your friend plants(?) still coming saturday ?

[Mr Oso]

Well. . . i think hes still waiting on his moms permisson. Itd be real nice if he came down this week cuz hed have the chance for 2 meetups

[jetblaksuit]

Mightfo you asked me a few pages back and, at the meetup at your house about modding that Elecom/Paewang/Mayflash PS2/3 stick I have. I believe you mentioned that you bought one yourself. Here are some links that you might find useful.

EDIT: Also any suggestions on whether I should get a TE and then get custom art or that AH3 Hori? I already have a stick sack that would fit a TE but that AH3 Hori is made of kitten yawns, rainbow sprinkles and smells like unicorn farts.

[Mightfo]

Alright, so, friidayyyy:

Confirmed:

Zreb

Tomato

AlohaJames(tager player)

Likely:

Oso

Plants?

Maybe:

Bishop/Broso?

Rave

SupaaKink

UTD James

Boombox

arghhh soldering i thought rave said it wouldnt require soldering

But wait..that one has 6 screws on the bottom. Mine only has 2, but when i unscrew those it still doesn't come off..maybe the other 4 are under the soft parts at the corners? Or maybe that's a different one and mine doesn't need soldering?

Regardless, I'd like to get this one set up, since getting both 360 and ps3 sticks would be more expensive(and i may want to replace the sticks on those with a Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT-G anyway..)..being virtually triple modded is so nice, especially since ps3 firmware updates IIRC fucked some ps2->ps3 converters recently.

Also, Rave said I'd be unlikely to be able to buy hori buttons like on the AH3 stick. What'd be the closest? I liked the buttons on Frigid's stick as well.

Welcome! You coming to the friday meetup? I'll PM you directions if so.

Glad to see you have converters, too.

EDIT:

Also! Tomato! Please bring a ps3 copy of BB and, if you can, a PS3 controller. Zreb and I will have two setups, but if we need 3, we'll probably either be accomodated by boombox or by UTD James who could bring a PS3 but probably still doesnt have a copy of bbcs lol

Lastly: Frigid, you should probably do a little check of who will come to your meetup and make sure you have enough setups. Don't get fucked like I did once at a meetup.

Yes, it will require soldering. The other screws are under the soft pads. The HORI Real Arcade PRO.V3 SA Arcana Heart 3 Edition stick uses Sanwa OBSF-30 pushbuttons. Not Hori ones. I'd really like to have a single triple modded stick for PS3, PS2 and, XBox 360 but it seems like it'd be super difficult to accomplish without purchasing a stick made for the Xbox first which I'd have absolutely no use for until I got it modded.

Talking about the AH2 stick, not the AH3 stick. I used Transient's AH2 stick at the meetup and it was fucking great.

http://www.dustloop.com/forums/showthread.php?9422-Dallas-Fort-Worth-Thread&p=796585&viewfull=1#post796585 Has the info on the stick.

also..don't..you have the same stick as me? Just get a ps2->360 converter($30 with shipping off ebay, i can link if needed) and boom.

[Mr Oso]

I can make it friday =D

Broso can make it but prob wont cuz it will be after work and he will be a tad tired D=

[Frigiddeath]

Right now I am going to need a head count on who is going to be coming on Saturday, so send me a message if you plan to or might show up. Right now we are sitting on 2 360s, 2 tvs, 1 PS3, and 4 sticks for 360. So, we are going to at least need 1 more TV, 1 PS3 controller, 2 PS3 sticks, and a copy of CS on PS3. If you can bring any of that, let me know.

I basically was going to make this exact post last night. That said, we could probably jack Ronny's monitor if he is cool with it, that way we have 3 setups.
