I'll show up on Saturday for a bit if I don't end up going to the Animecon/tourney on Friday.

Seriously.

ST is the best. Everyone should play more ST.

Canceling the 2HS into an item usually lets you do it again. Sometime I do TK bomb bag after that. I don't know. It just seems... Boring.

How about some block strings? I know Faust doesn't have that many and most are situational but block strings really help with getting more items out. The ones I do are pretty boring and pretty much only involve items, bomb bags and 2HS.

I do this too sometimes by accident. I like Senkei's style of play. RUSH THAT SHIT DOWN!

S door is pretty safe. If they block, I FRC it. If they don't I whatever. I was playing a Robot Ky a week ago and I never knew that you can pogo through the missles (66). I never knew it gave THAT much invincibility. So that's how Osaka B wins!

Mettakiri is really strange. I'd appreciate it if someone can upload the Faust page of the mook because I don't really understand it's hit box. I found out that you can't do mettakiri when they're in block stun (ex: they block meteors or another item and you use mettakiri at the exact moment the item hits) but you can still time it right after it hits or before. Is it possible to mettakiri slayer out of dandy step or mappa? (!)

I'm not too sure about this one. I tried it out during a match and it didn't work.

Osaka B is my hero.

You're kidding, right? If you can actually 214K out of his over drives, that Venom player is definitely ass (he's supposed to lock you down with it). I haven't played the Venom player I played in a while though. Zappa is annoying because of his ghosts. It's hard to zone in with the ghosts and long range against Zappa isn't that good. Mid range is best on Zappa. Although if you can be more specific, I'll tell you more about what you need help with. I only played one Millia in my lifetime and it wasn't really a good one. All I have to say is, no pressure. Don't let her pressure you. Keep in mid range, etc. Watch for the Millia to fuck up so you can 6HS her into a RC combo so you can GGPO her.

Yeah, Testament is definitely hard. A lot of patience is required in that match. In a war of bomb bags and exebeasts, exebeasts win. I'm not too worried about Testament at far range but then again, if you stay too far, Testy will eventually lure you in. Testament just has plenty of tools. I throw ALOT of bomb bags when fighting Testicle. Like Akira stated, j.H is awesome against Testament because it's farther than his j.D which is a bitch. Out of curiosity, does 5K beat out random badlands?

I guess it's based off of experience. I don't have too much of a hard time with Slayer, Eddie or Testament since alot of people play them. Baiken is rather difficult though but I know how to deal with her. I think I'm going to say Venom.

Characters whose 6HS is safe and spammable have an easier time tech throwing.

I never use 6 Respect because I don't have respect for my opponents.

I never knew Venom could warp after pogo hit (236S) to avoid flower pressure.

That guy has balls!

Also, TK GMW (23698 HS) is incredibly safe. I wonder if you can put it in block strings...

Just how practical is the invulnerability of DI transformation and how long does it last?

bigoooooohh is a god amongst men.

I'll be playing the legendary XAQshinor (one of the best East Coast players and best Dizzys in the nation) this Saturday. He likes to cross up alot. He'll throw out bubbles or fish and cross up. Most of the time it'll be fish. What can I do to punish the cross up? Or specifically, the crazy mixups?

I never knew that you had to do super jump cancel for 2d, 2s, 5k. o_o I always thought it was the regular jump cancel and I was doing it wrong. I still prefer this over 2d, 2s, jc k, because with the former, I can do it instantly while for the latter it seems I have to wait a bit. Or is that just me?

214s is so gdlk. After they block it and I FRC , I do counter hit 2k in the air because they're usually fiending to punish it.
