Yo tofurr, you were right, I had a few games with Alex today and the connection was perfect on my side. Y U ALWAYS RIGHT? So anyways i'm adding you on sexbox :kitty:

Go for it, brah.

Gli: tips? D:

@unsanct: grabs are legit. If you are worried about grabs then I've done the damage already. Against your Rachel I noticed you liked to use 2C a lot especially if I moved towards you at a certain distance. I grabbed a lot because of this.

With Platinum I just wanted to get refill of Bat. So I spammed command grab.

Again with this limiting others of how to play. Grabs are in the game. Netplay or not it's an option. You can grab me too.

When you're drunk logic seems to become nonexistent.

Wonder who ends up playing better when drunk anyways?

Why do people complain about grab? I don't get why you would intentionally not use a mechanic that is universally in the game. If it works, do it. Talking about mix-ups and stuff like it's the only thing that matters when you don't even consider the threat of the throw.

I believe with the buffs to air throws in general, and Rachel's ability for varying movement with Wind, she's a very good character to throw with. Her range can be mitigated by the speed in which she closes in on opponents.

Eh, I just assumed you are only doing it 'cause I can't seem to tech it online. I assume the worst of people usually. Yeah I spam 2C on people I don't know just 'cause I don't have any habits to be sure of with them. So I go with lolchair.

But you did have some idea of his relative skill level and his playstyle (adapt and download), right?

I hope.

I'll only really spam grabs if I see you teching my throws. That's when I start to go for TRMs. I never had to resort to this since nearly all of my grabs were from your 2C (untechable)

I know teching throws online is stupid that's why I still lose to random Tager online.

Looks like a bunch of salt and "deal with its" in here. I wonder how Polkahime-sama going to react.

I learned, but I didn't adapt - I couldn't do it. I got wrecked.

A good number of them were 2c grabs, but quite a few were just everywhere q.q

I'll play you when I'm sober tomorrow or something. Get some better matches in.

The others are probably from my IAD grabs during any of my pressure. My "auto-pilot" thing to do is to IAD grab since most people want to jump-out at certain points of the pressure. A lot of the time it's during the brief moments of nothing between points of pressure where people will jump-back (or jump forward if in the corner).

The other time my grab would seem "everywhere" is anytime after a sword iris or BBL that hits high in the air. At this point if I see you neutral or forward tech and end up right above me I will sj.8D > air-throw to punish the tech.

If I could describe how I play, I would probably just call it "lockdown". I don't want you to be able to do anything. I just want you to block and guess wrong at certain points. I'm more likely to do IAD throw (or even wind + IAD throw) if I see you jump around a lot.

GGs though. I bet if I lost more not so much salt would be around lol. I'm the same whenever I lose :(

I finally have CS2 and I'm grinding like crazy. Updates will happen soon!

LA Noire is sitting unplayed in the meantime :yaaay:

Man I rarely meet ANY dustloop members on Xbox Live. Is it because not many of them have Live accounts or I'm not playing at the right time or nobody knows me. :( All I get to play is low to decent players.

Posted

I'm mainly on XBL around 12 PM CST on weekdays. At 6 PM CST a lot of people on my friend's list are on so I think that would be the best time to play. Just add people and ask to play. :)

I'll be doing the exact opposite! :yaaay:

Also, I wonder if I tried hosting something again in the area if you would be the only person to show up again. :v:

currentlemon: Just add some of us. There's Gli, Gil, Alex, pikdum, myself, etc. etc. :kitty:

l have a question, has rachel ever had any resets/gimmicks? l don't think l see most rachel players reset ever, they either finish the combo or drop it.

does she just lack them period? or does other factors like wind management come into play? maybe they're not as strong as her oki?

(I remember that 8k reset l used to do back in ct... good times :kitty: )

Air throw resets sometimes work, as does j.C counter hit resets if you catch them mashing out of air tech, if you're low enough 6a can work as well. But there not really reliable from my experience; it's better just to get solid oki.
