Ggs to flyingburritto, FLAMING LIPS 79, Tsuuna, xNoahh, LukeYuriRaine25, Pinku Lite, xBronzor, and Zehawesome Thanks for reminding me that I'm completely hopeless at this game. I was beginning to think I had a non-zero value of competence. Glad to see that you've got that sorted out.

As far as I can tell, releasing D makes the game assume you want the electric meter. So yes. Though I suppose it's possible to time it such that you 214D get hit on the exact guard point frame and buffer the 236A at that very moment.

Assuming that's serious. Follow these steps: 214D (hold D). Wait until hit. 236A any time after but before charge finishes (you can do this while still holding D). Or someone smacks you with a low. Or grabs you. Or walks away. Or keeps punching you in the face anyway because hammer is freaking slow. Enjoy (the|being) counter-hit.

ggs to TheKingOfHerons, QingUilE, nergalsfang, vSocks, S0S YukikoAmagi, DabBOMBoy, DWS Zordon, RikuVIIMikoto, Gungnir94, Select7, Tsuuna, and Dark Ranger So much "I just can't win" it made me want to cry. THAT ONE DROP Ranger had almost made me sick. Special GGs to dualseeker for doing the FT10 I was harassing you for.

GGs to AngeI of Hope, End4sure, Ladd000Russo, TheNine16, Nephinel, ATB MAX, and Lon3Star R3ap3R I still find it strange that even with a small and relatively even cast, that the distribution of characters online still heavily favors a small % of those available.

Allegedly he's Philly-region, so while usually it's fairly good between us, his connection can be extreme hit-or-miss.

GGs to CaliforKiss, FTK Sakamoto, Supervillian XD and LeBarbu1983. Honestly, I've been thinking of putting together a montage of chokes and near-misses. Because, you see, I'm not allowed to win (unless it's given to me).

You were in my face pushing buttons.

I have no idea what you're talking about. We've always been at war with Eastasia. Seriously though, it's just me tweaking it until the grammar finally comes out close to what I want it to convey. The only reason it "sounds worse" is because I get closer to what I was going for. And the lag spike 720 isn't ever going to happen. That implies I ever will allow my internet connection to be slow and jittery.

(bolded for emphasis) I think you misspelled "virtually no" Take it from someone who gets double perfected--mutiple times--by (virtually) only throw starter combos. I'm exactly as terrible as I say I am.

Oh, come on, how much mental effort could you possibly have exhausted against me? Mine shouldn't even count towards that count. It should read "... after a FT10 and a side diversion..." GGs, BTW.

GGs to Shock Foxx, Jiraiya x Sage, Torko, MDK GET U SUM B , and someonewhodied's connection I very much enjoy having my tenuous technical abilities negated by a connection that will frame s an d stu t t s all the ti

GGs to DaBOMBoy, TB EroticOreo, StrawberryGL and SsgtScott or in other words, no one who posts here.

I wanted to do that because I saw it too, but I couldn't get my hands to not. If I knew this one, I wouldn't still be complaining about not being able to tech them. I'm just never ready for them. I didn't know what to do. It was either a) block and look for an opening b) get countered or c) get counter-hit Honestly, it's that I'm too stupid to know what I'm supposed to fall for, so I don't. Thanks. I thought I had been doing it more (but not vs mac that set because he was still jumping too much for me to mentally justify throwing it out there), but I guess it's still not enough.

GGs, Mac. Sorry for the pretty much instant bail, but I really should start getting ready for bed. I'll still be on for a little bit more for any commentary on whatever that was that just happened.

Getting online now. Send me a friend request or message me or something with the name of the account I'm inviting. I'll try to shake this, but I make no promises. The venting helped a little bit.

It's not a "I'm going to do what I feel like, regardless of the consequences" type of "I don't care" it's a "Confidence is in the toilet. I am having a hard enough time mustering up enough will to push any button." type of "I don't care" It's a frustration of getting destroyed by other people's random select, being unable to do something about it and having no secondaries to just go screw around with.

I'll level with you: I have no I idea what you mean by this. Please try explaining this to me as if I were a 6-year-old child, because that's about where my mental acuity with regards to fighting games is, anyway. Really, you don't want to fight me like this right now. I was playing before but stopped pretty much because variants of "Whatever, I don't care" kept playing though my head. And that was within the first four matches. I should have stopped there, like my rational brain was telling me to, but I kept pushing on just hoping for that "one good thing" to randomly happen to revitalize everything. It didn't.

OK. Can't be today because I'm in absolutely no mental shape to do such right now. Will you be available/willing M/W/F?

I'd say GGs to Sleep II Terror, ZealousSleepy, Shock Foxx, SELECT7, KiddxKhaos, and NFAMOUS Jin, but that would imply I did anything to make them good. I've pretty much conceded that I'll never tech a grab on purpose, purple or otherwise. I dunno, I don't recall seeing a lot of air approaches from you. That gives me pretty much full run of the air and a heck of a lot more mobility than I'm entitled to. Though I think I've seen you take to the sky very slightly more as of the last meeting or two. Full disclosure: one of the reasons I noticed your lack of jumping is that I can never catch you jumping out of GF. And since we're on the subject of advice... Since I know I'm the weird one who'll just volunteer information, I'll just ask, in lieu of having any specific questions: do you have any specific advice (note: anyone's input would be appreciated)? I know it's been some time between then and now, so if you can't remember anything, that's fine. And, ah, right, I knew about the username thing, I forgot about it when going through the names in the recently played list.

GGs to Tuxedo Trap, SnazzyMuffin103, Geadtfo, Low Tier Lord, Horse Fracture, Luminarotaku, Shadow 9396, kROmAtIk TeMPTZ, nurbenzin, CaliforKiss, Sleep II Terror, RoutineCleric11, FlakeyFlame9680, GAME MA5TER 21, ROXBURY FOOL, Pippy McPip Guk, Sgt Killz u all, AirRuby786, Shock Foxx, KiddxKhaos, Beaver Plunger, TheNine16, BlazS3, Heng Huo, Shervin, Scuba Sparkles, The McTager, Kennsuna, Sr Eagle Man, QuietWraith (Much belated despite frequent plays) and anyone else I forgot. Shoutouts to the stalkers of the day: Dr Newtype, xKxOxMx and NemesisEnforser; I hope the pummeling I received didn't bore you too much. I didn't. You just like NEVER JUMP (outside of some kind of pressure/combo) and you let me get away with far too many 2Ds that day.

GGs to ShAdyNYC, Horse fracture, z9zangetsu6z AirRuby786, RaseruNights21's lag, JVC Raven, SonicTempest, someonewhodied and Quiet Wraith. Wish I could have heard the conversation that was going on, it all sounds garbled coming out of my TV's speakers. I'm sure it was all constructive and at no time was there any commentary denigrating someone who already considers themselves to be unforgivably bad at this (or any) game. Shoutouts to the spectators that popped in.

GGs to Dark Ranger and TOPHERTON and spontaneous weirdo lag from nowhere that compels taking the nuclear option to the room.

GGs to DeVIlsLaYEr756, Guilty Habit, Select7, zinv1, Scuba Sparkles, Graymalkyn, Graymalkyn's connection and Argent Zero. This "dash" you describe sounds like evil magic! HAVE YOU BEEN CONSORTING WITH SATAN?! SOMEONE FETCH A DUCK AND SIR BEDIVERE'S SCALES! But seriously, you'd think that, but you've played me. What's my combo completion rate? Like, 25% on a good day? My training mode percentage is only marginally better. It took me several weeks-month to do Makoto Mission 8. Seriously, I spent like, three+ months doing nothing but drills (and I mean basic stuff like 5A>5B>3C>22D--you wouldn't believe how long I struggled with that and to some degree still do) before playing people. I'm still running periodic drills on the simple stuff because I can't get it down consistently. The SW input (regardless if it's 1 or 3 in a particular context) and I especially don't see eye-to-eye. I still can't do the mission in SSFIV where you do h.DP>FADC>h.DP>FADC>h.DP with Ken (and this is pretty bad when Ken + Blanka are pretty much the only two characters I want to play in that game). But enough of me crying about being terrible. I just wish I didn't have to put on my Tryhardiest pants in order to have a non-zero chance versus people who are pretty much throwing out whatever they want.

GGs Deviltrigger211, aspectsofwar82, StrainedRapier5, MegaNeji and Nemisis Enforser. One day, maybe I'll actually grow something like talent and people will play me seriously. EXTREMELY LATE but I'm not gonna turn down help if it's offered. Pretty low. I have the technical ability of an empty mayo jar, and I fall for everything. You seem to have grossly overestimated my technical ability. I find RAGNA'S use to be an impenetrable fortress for me. I did quite a bit of this when I was playing Brawl, so this technique is not unknown to me. I also find it a little frustrating to try and find any (recent) Tager videos online. Thanks though. I really do appreciate it.
