Those are more of the same terrible lolky videos aren't they? Seems like the same guy.who gave us such awesome classics as 100% tension combos that did quarter life, VT > RC > VT, sweep RC > stun edge and shit. I thought it was just comedic value stuff. I remember "elegant" being in the description for those too. Regarding "DGE" looks like he's referring to the elbow. Japan has scrubs too you know, they don't all know what they're doing. edit: YEAH the second video is the one we've all seen/know and love, STUN DIPPER RC > STUN EDGE SON. Then again, I can't read japanese, maybe he's saying "hey guys don't do this shit ok"

hahfdhsfsdaflk I wonder if the media/that Jack Thompson or whatever guy will notice this game and be all WOAH PLAYING THIS GAME PRACTICALY EQUALS STATUTORY RAPE WHAT BAN BAN BAN

Didn't this same thing happen to somebody a while back, burningvigor I think? I remember somebody saying in that thread "oh well, there's always flimzee" lol. thx youtube. It was also brought up then that the main reason they'd do this is to get anal about reasons to free up their bandwidth/space by going after people with 1000+ videos that the general population doesn't care much about. The copyright thing is just an excuse. edit: I imagine the same thing will happen to accounts like TheShend's, he has the most 3S videos on youtube from what I can tell.

lol a code to play a bad character, that's a first.

iirc Fiona's a mid boss, like how you fight Testament before Justice in GG1. But yeah, she's playable from the beginning in this game.

ummm a better Hokuto no Ken with girls instead of guys with a unique groove-like system (CvS2, Tenka). Not really Melty Blood-ish at all. It does have something similar to a GG burst. But really...it's pretty different.

haha. now you're the one that's gotta chill, given the situation it would be obvious you didn't know. the American AH1 and the japanese -console- AH2 out on the same day? yeah...the internet is really bad about situations like this.

She certainly has the coolest move names. Well, except possibly SUPER DEADLY NINJA BEES.

nonononono, the AMERICAN release of Arcana Heart(s lol) is in April

FS has talked about this before, it makes VT loops easier. Also you'll have a jump/airdash after the FRC.

6H FRC > delete

Oh by the way, my Shiki guide is up on gamefaqs now under "taraction".

A Belmont is in this game so it is obvious who I am playing.

We have a good Asura in NC. His main problem, like with Yuki, is that certain characters destroy him for free. The guy is pretty good at what he was designed to do, though Mizuchi is better and has a similar playstyle. Fun with Asura: far C > AB step > repeat x8/9. Almost full life! I'll break down why Yuki is bad later, lol. Yeah. I've already seen that match vid that was linked back when it was put up. I'm almost done with a faq for Shiki. She's far from crap, but I wouldn't give her better than high mid. For good match videos, well...I'll be on the FRXI dvd when that comes out, but Dark Geese has some older videos of me at NEC doing Shiki stuff. I've learned a lot since then though. There is that match of me vs JeRon where I have full life with both chars halfway through the match :grin: Which brings me to another point: Mudman is LOL edit: and geese is retarded. no, the player

I take that back. It's quite useful and I have no idea why I never realized it until recently...except I mean SC to level 1 and not 2, though that has its merit as well shrug

whine whine whine. gj jeremy.

I didn't know S version hit lower...or maybe just never thought about it. Cool. Can you remember any of the moves it hits that HS doesn't? I normally use S anyway though...I haven't tried it so much on certain lows 'cause I thought I'd get fucked. VT FRC ususally leaves me in a poor situation though. I don't feel like I have any good air to ground options at that angle and I usually have to FD and get put back into pressure or get air thrown. What do you guys do?

Ride the Lightning is far from safe. Air RTL is getting closer, but still. Yeah...you have to block if whatever they're doing is reversal safe/baiting a VT (which is pretty much what they should be doing). Moves like Slayer 6K/2K, Sol 2D, Axl 2K, etc you can't fuck with, esp. not the low crouching normals their hitbox will dodge the move even at point blank. RTL may work, but only if said move is still active when you're getting up.

I could have won if I had rolled/guard canceled better. It's not impossible, he makes mistakes...but not many. And he blocks EVERYTHING.

Justin Wong.

Well in some cases, it's gaining the ability to do more damage and not less if you're close enough to the corner to get a good wallbounce > combo. A GS combo won't go over 140/150 anyway. But yes, tech traps are a risk and you can easily lose your momentum whereas you could have done a reliable combo > knockdown.

Kyo is good in this game...and I get to fight a very, very good Kyo pretty often. His meterless damage is great, so are his DA combos. I would even say that Kyo/Iori is the best "pre-made" team in the game. Not saying too very much since most of the other ones are terrible. Let me rate those while I'm at it shrug lol: Kyo/Iori Robert/Karate (about as good, maybe better) Kaede/Moriya (better imo only because Fuuma sucks) Hanzou/Fuuma Terry/Rock Yuki/Ai I think that's it. Chonrei/Chonshu? ew. On an unrelated note, I like the art for this game. I went through the galleries again the other day, I just wish you could look at the win quote pictures there as well as the ending pics without having to sit through the story part/skip credits etc.

Yeah. He's not the worst in the game, but he doesn't have much going for him that other characters don't do better. K' certainly hasn't always sucked, he's much better in XI. And yeah, Yuki is generally considered worse than K'. There's very little he can do outside of charged moves, and some characters will never give you the chance to do that. all of his combos that do any damage are situational and of course require said charge. Shiki, on the other hand...I play her with Mai. She's not bad, but she's not really quite one of the good characters. If the person you're fighting can block and knows how to punish with guard cancels, you basically have to poke and hope you get lucky/punish something and get the grab reset right and hope your mixup works after it. Or you could just block and then run at her and throw like Justin Wong did to me lol. He said it was like fighting Magneto.

no shin akuma in accent core =/
