I'm really thinking too hard because I'm really sure players don't have tendencies like that are predetermined strategies, it's mostly a feel thing. But perhaps there could be things that can irritate people. I have heard of perfect pitch individuals getting annoyed when people don't resolve scales or something is a sliver out of tune (but not enough to be easily recognizable). I have ylod and an untouched BBCS case so I have too much idle time. I remember getting destroyed by Nineball Infinite in two matches. Oddly, my best round was when I started screwing up my litchi strings (in CT with my 2 month Litchi or so) and had random hitches and drops. It was odd gimmicky pressure but worked in that instance. (reminds me of Sirlin's book a lil) i guess a way off explaining could be like imagine a consistent drummer fast hitting a snare/or metronome in straight eighth notes and then another person hitting a bass every 2, 3 or 4 eighth notes. Now the person hitting the snare will have trouble guessing that subtle difference or entrances. Then you can train the snare player to hear certain pulses (3/4, 2/4, 4/4, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8 some odd 9/8 composite like 2+3+2+2) etc. I don't know how that relates to a fighting game. With Litchi, I used to experiment before a match by doing some loop and jumping with her J.C. (in CT) to show my air to air in a loop about 3 times if my opponent doesn't advance. Then i would try to use a slight augmentation or diminution rhythmic variance throughout the rest of the match.

I thought of a concept to try to get the opponent off balance by basing your gameplay movement, (maybe even footsies on odd number beats, syncopation and irregular time signatures (5/8, 7/8, 11/8 etc. etc.) I can't really describe it in detail and since I'm not a top player it's relevancy is small. Something like showing your opponent some 4/4, common time repetition than adding half a beat or subtracting. I would assume most people do this type of stuff naturally and on autopilot but how many conceive of doing it. Maybe it's my keep away/poking CT litchi making me think in weird ways. Some chastise me if I'm too out of the thread's topic. (YLOD has me with too much idle thinking) A rhythmic thought or internal pulsation helps a lot on combos with delays and odd timing.
-
Yeah I agree. Rhythm isn't a problem no matter how loud (internal pulse). Audio cues would be a problem. But the muscle memory seems to develop naturally. On second thought, I think I was referring to something completely different.
-
I actually learned my litchi combos in CT by remembering the rhythm. Oddly, my play style is to try to disrupt mye own rhythm. Ie: 5/8 to 3/4 to 7/8 in regards to movement but very sporadically. (I'm a music comp major btw so I guess I can relate). Though I think the rhythm thing can be a great hindrance as I had to learn to disrupt it. It made me a lot easier to read.
-
yes it is. too bad the manual is only about 5 pages. I can't even tease myself with a command list.

Sigh, looks like I'll be maybe a month behind or whenever I get a new ps3.

I'm about to sell my saxophone (medically I can't play it anyway due to something called task-specific focal dystonia). It's old so we'll see. I guess I'll buy a slim. Too bad I didn't have the money weeks ago for a trade in. Oh well. You could be seeing me in a few days or in September. Giving it to sony is a ripoff (and I had a refurbished one from them anyway). Oh well, it lasted almost 2 years.
-
Yeah, I'm gonna try to scramble for some cash and buy a new slim perhaps. I had a bad feeling something would go wrong before the BBCS release. I played Demon's Souls for about 10 minutes and boom, shut off-yellow light.
-
yeah second time. But this last one worked for 1 1/2 to 2 years. I may just wait to get a slim.
-
Nooooooooooooo. My ps3 just did YLOD. I guess I can't play until I buy a newer one.

Yeah I'm still at it. Can't wait for some CS litchi. I'll probably be on later today sometimes.

Don't make the mistake and over-think things too much. I went on a losing streak trying to drastically change my Ragna before I switched to Litchi as my main. Tweak, don't make too large adjustments. If you have too, recognize you will lose a lot in order to break that habit. Vice suggested I jump less. I couldn't change on the fly and be competitive against him in our next match. So I had to decide to charge more after baiting CH and other small modifications. Well, if you can go drastic, kudos to you.
