Well its nice to see that there is a thread for a question I wanted to ask.. I'm just interested in how long it took for you guys to get good at this in general.. Here is a bit of my background info; Always played fighting games casually as a kid and such, anytime I had to time to play a fighter I did, but I would just button mash, like most kids do and try and pull stuff off. But now I'm 19, started playing stuff like SF 2 Turbo, SFA 3, and MvC 1 on MAME alot I think either in summer of 09 or summer last year, really can't remember. Just recently though, I began to understand stuff like frame rates, hitstun, blockstun, and all of that. Me understanding the system has really given me some confidence to try and go in with any character and learn how to play w/ em, cuz I can just print out frame data and figure out what I can do combowise, and for frame traps and other stuff... But yeah, I've been in challenge mode for BBCS just recently, and I guess since I haven't played this game in a while I forgot how HARD it is. I've already been knowing that BB and GG are the most execution heavy games out there, but WOW, I'm having trouble with level 3 challenge mode combos. I feel right now that I wanna main Ragna, how long did it take some of you Ragna players to get the execution and timing down for this guy? And I'm also learning alot that distance plays a role in combos, I had alot of trouble with the 2nd Combo in the 3rd Challenge... It was Forward Throw > 214B > 214D > 5B > 623D > 236C > 214D. The timing between the 214B and 214 D has to be really precise, cuz the 5B will whiff cuz Bang keeps teching out of it... Took me a while to get that down...
