  1. I like winning Also I live in Lansing where there is no real scene so I either play a character that you can learn almost entirely in training mode or I won't be tournament-ready.
  2. Oh my bad, I'm used to FRC drills so I assumed you could YRC them. I'm no Xrd expert yet.
  3. To be fair your best bet in the corner is often to knockdown into meaty drill YRC into blockstring into summon shadow.
  4. Please note you should mix up pressure types to allow your strings to look different, push opponents to the corner, be a stylish asshole, and because fuck it, you're eddie and theyre in a block string you've already won anyway.
  5. -p- pressure is straight up better and less predictable for ground strings. It is also somewhat harder, especially to turn a random hit into a combo. The goal is to catch the opponent trying to jump or poke or get them to eat a throw, so tiny hits that eat up less meter and give you more time to mix up are better. Very light hit/guard stun mean lots of broken frames in guardstrings = tons of chances to get mixed up. An eddie using lots of punch pressure is TERRIFYING and is like a kid standing behind you, punching you in the back of the neck repeatedly while screaming DONT FUCK UP DONT FUCK UP -k- pressure is better if you are going vertical since it gives you more time to do your high/low and your opponent isn't going to get caught trying to poke out of air strings anyway. An eddie using lots of k pressure on the ground is predictable and you can outthink by spotting the weak points since you have so much more time to plan between gaps. -k- pressure is also good if you need to advance the shadow a very long distance and don't have a great way to do that, mostly for the sake of converting into Nobiru or Set Drill on hit or other things. Source: I'm an eddie scrub but I've been hit enough times by eddie to know why he is murdering me in the way he is murdering me
  6. Hello the secret to getting it to stick is getting the air height on the TK Gallery low (which is the less important part) and timing the hit of the -s- Nobiru, which is more important. When -s- hits, it will temporarily pause the juggle animation for the person you are hitting as it processes the hitstun. By timing it to hit slightly late after the first hit of the Shadow Gallery, but not too late, you will interrupt the opponent's rising animation and cause them to stutter in the air for a moment before the second hit of the shadow gallery knocks them into the wallslide animation. Ideally this will result in them sticking lower to the ground and sliding down into a Delayed Crumple Fall or whatever they call it in this game. So your timing looks like this: Summon shadow => 412369 => (first hit connects) => very slight delay (maybe 1/4 of a second) => -s- => (second hit connects) A good way to tell if you are doing it correctly: First, try it without holding the down. Note how high they go. Now try it holding down the way too long. Note they fly super fucking high. Now go back to doing it where you release right away, but hold it down SLIGHTLY longer each time. Eventually you will see them fly not very high at all. Practice this until you're getting them lower and lower on the wall, then perfect that timing once you are seeing them slide down into Delayed Crumple.
  7. Eddie has matchups?
  8. mostly this
  9. oh good i dont pay any attention to anything tbh
  10. Its cool guys i live here so michigan has a scene now And yeah bken has never really played an anime fighter so id probably have to teach him, ill see if he cares

  12. Gonna have to main eddie in xrd since no one lives in lansing. training mode warria'
  13. Hey, so. I may be visiting/temp living in Japan at some point in the nearish future. I am trying to figure out where the fuck I might be interested in staying during that time, and one of my considerations is that I would love to find a decent Guilty arcade to call home. Since I'll probably be balls-deep in XRD I think that's a noble endeavor all things considered. Any advice on where some of my best options would be to post up for that sort of thing? Or any location recommendations if I'm looking for a city/area that is semi-kinda-affordable but still in proximity to Good Shit in general? Thanks for any advice duders
  14. basically be sure to get the non-animu gamers too because i think we're beggers not choosers
  15. OK got some free time coming up if im going to travel for whatever reason i guess ill start thinking about doing so
  16. Yep thats me and yeah, doesn't seem there are many dudes out here, but whatever it's not like there's anything else to do when I'm snowed in besides try to find people
  17. hahaha yep Glad you're still kickin' around, man.
  18. also apparently rockdan is in the area time to figure out how to get ahold of these people
  19. wait, bananaken lives out here? Oh shit i kind of know that guy from somewhere else
  20. ok well that didnt work
  21. Hey so I'm getting bored not knowing people here in Lansing. Let's get a rundown of who lives in the area and would be down for a get-together of some type (I probably can't volunteer my place just yet but should be able to occasionally after the new year). For real I need a reason to learn a combo in AC+R I don't know ANYTHING right now
  22. man i hate the thought of having to travel why did i have to move to a city no one lives in
  23. yeah i just wanted to point out that on like 2/3 of the faustiy frost fucker pages and posts including the website no one mentions the date or location that shit should be at the top of err post
