Ranking from only S-B? That's pretty good so far.

Yeah pretty much. When she gets in, that's when you should start being careful. She has amazing pressure and her jabs beat almost everything you got up close. You gotta be patient and wait for an opening, Mitsuru's DP is very risky but if you can at least make them respect you enough to be a little less aggressive, then its worth throwing out once or twice imo. At least that's how I deal with the MU.

PS3 version I'll start posting here frequently again once I get it

Throw teching isn't that hard, even online (unless its unplayable lag) you just got to REMEMBER your opponent CAN throw you at any time and then simply react to it once you see it. It sounds like a simple solution but not that many people tech throws when they should I notice. Oh yeah and practice lol

Augh...You know what sucks? Even if they made Tager a good character, he'd still have bad match ups with like..over half the cast. T.T

made this one out of boredom

Whats wrong with Vampire Savior 2 and why isn't it on GGPO? I have 1 and 2 and 2 seems to have the 3 different characters, was there poor balance choices made in this games version or something? Like SF zero 2 alpha?

Well said, I still find it funny that some SF players toss BB and many other games aside because of them being anime games when Street Fighter 4 is *gasp* also an anime fighting game. I mean just look at the games cutscenes lol Yeah I agree, just let ArcSys tweak the engine more and more, one game at a time.

Apparently theres a lot of hate for the game here according to some people but I never really see it. So state your opinion here about the game, why or why not is it a good competitive fighting game in your opinion? I'd honestly like to know what the majority of people here on Dustloop think of the game. In my opinion, ever since Continuum Shift they have really stepped it in terms of gameplay mechanics and every single tweak they make to the engine seems to make it a much better game. I believe the game is deep and has a nice skill gap for players. Maybe the comparison to Guilty Gear that makes the game look bad?

Does this count? When I am Tager fighting Jin, I use 2A to bait his DP after a gadget finger. If its the quick version of his DP, I'll crouch it, if its the slow one I'll be able to block it.

I am definitely liking these new Tager options, seems like he is at least not going to be in his own tier again this time LoL

And even then the connection bars are not accurate in this game so you can still get some unplayable matches with the filters on.

Mu vs Tager

Of course, purple grabs are untechable online =P

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUvYU37Oe6o&feature=feedu buru^hawai = Best Tager player ever? Probably not but I sure as hell learned a lot from watching him play.

Her having no DP has made this match MUCH easier imo You can be more reckless now it seems.

oh my bad lol

Another glitch I found is Hazama's 214D>B doesn't fatal counter like it should either. (I remember seeing a video vs a Lambda where it did)

I can confirm that the guard break purple throw glitch in the 360 version is not present in the ps3 version.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-V0plKA8Z8 YUP Edit- Was there ANYTHING this Tager could do in this match?

yeah, the netcode is shit for sure, thats one of the reasons I may not buy it. My brother just rented it and let me borrow it for a day, I hope they do something about it since they said they are going to be supporting online with DLC and stuff this time around.

I kinda got mixed feelings towards story mode, Im disappointed with the many characters deaths but at the same time, I am interested in what they will do for the next MK's storyline. The gameplay isn't really that bad either honestly, Ermac is still awesome! http://testyourmight.com/forum/forum.php ^great site for competitive MK btw

Netcode in this game sucks for me =(

looks like a highly modified version of Tenkaichi tag teams engine, which isn't that bad imo.

^This I loved XI because how fun it was. Duck FTW
