Ah, I thought so. Someone was telling me it wasn't, then it was, then it wasn't. Thank you.

I tried to tell ya, man.

I have no idea what happened here ^ @Okizeme games: Kanji's reward for actually making his way in and managing to score a knockdown is forcing you to make a decision. If it's the wrong one versus the decision he made, then he wins. Other characters have similar oki plans. Grapplers in most games usually force the game of "Am I going to grab you or not?" KOF Clark/Daimon(not so much Daimon)... Zangief... Kanji is no exception. He actually has tools to keep up with the rest of the cast, giving him a chance to not be bottom tier forever like most grapplers are doomed to be considered for. @Volpe getting grabbed for blocking. Are you talking about his "YOU WANT SOME?" when you say getting grabbed for blocking? That thing has no hitstun or blockstun, that's why he's command grabbing you. You can't get grabbed for 6 frames after you come out of blockstun or hitstun. If you block it, you can jump the grab if you sense one, dude.

http://sf4answers.com/questions/421/how-to-perform-a-walking-720-with-zangief-honda-t-hawk-etc ? I'm on my phone, at work, so sorry if I'm not answering questions as well as I could.

He's a grappler character. This is how they work. @mashing: I assume that's what we're talking about) create better block strings. Ones that you expect someone to be pressing buttons and will counterhit them and/or block their DP. If people want throw their health away, take it from them. Mashing is retarded and not a strong strategy.

Something interesting that you could try against a Kanji if you don't want to get near him. Pressure him with Jiraiya from across the field. 5D out, then you have 5C, 2C, and 5DD available. If he hits your persona because you make a frame trap mistake, big deal, it's a card, Yosuke is do mobile we can wait ten seconds.

How they can do it all in one day: state tournament beginning time. Get everyone + 1 official into one or more lobbies and have em play. Done in one afternoon.

....if they stopped taking entrants, what's the point of remaking the brackets? If its to cut down on dropped participants, then preserve original opponents. It's not difficult. =\

Bored, yes. Want to see you get bodied, no. I want to see you guys stomp on faces. MTN ftw.

Yeah, I experienced that first hand. Yosuke's dash spring is a run and only triggered by a character hit. Thanatos will block me all day if he's out, which is why I don't do it anymore. A lot of characters that have gap closers have a hitbox built in and at the front of the attack, so that's why it's kicking Thanatos out of the way and continuing to travel and collide with your character. Also consider perhaps an elevated priority of Droit. Game's good, guys. You've been playing it for all of two weeks. That's not nearly enough time for you, me, Naimat, Papstr... for any of us to understand it. There will be silly character stuff, but there's always, always answers. If you Square'd him and it did not hit, then you missed. I don't know what else to tell you, man. http://www.dustloop.com/guides/p4arena/hitbox/Mitsuru/BD.html Maybe the graphic of your sword arc hit him, but the actual hitbox didn't. Again, game's been out for a very small amount of time. There isn't going to -be- any high level play. Especially not from anyone in ranked. Not from anyone that didn't play it in japanese arcades 6 months ago.

In other games, when a character's attack hitbox collides with a character, it turns the rest of the active frames into recovery frames. In Persona, this holds true except for when you strike a character's persona. The attack remains active and does so for even a little bit longer because hitstop comes into play. @Star: If The Big Square didn't hit Narukami, you simply missed or he did something that made him invulnerable like a backdash or back airdash or something. There's nothing that makes him invuln when he summons his Persona. @Volpe: Get a discussion going either on Dustloop's Elizabeth section, or Mayonaka Midnight's Elizabeth section. http://mayonakamidnight.com/showthread.php?905-Elizabeth-vs-Mitsuru They even have videos for study. @Both of you: I think that may still be around because the game is still brand new to us. We're all still learning the game, our own characters, and everyone else's character.

Thanks for the Akihiko information, it's very helpful in figuring out how I want to go through that fight when I need to be up close. We're on the 15th, guys. If you have an issue with this I need to know immediately.

Counterhit 5B is destructive, too, right? I see you doing some flippy boomerang hook off of throw sometimes, is that only counterhit? Boomerang Hook fatal counters raw can you get similar high numbers off of it, sans super? Akihiko is a bully.

..... Well crap. Is this specifically vs. a grounded opponent only? YO EVERYONE. PENDING MTNG DATE CHANGE. September 29th conflicts with Season's Beatings and Jason wants a good stream count, which won't happen if we play on 29th. Currently looking at 15th.

Hey, Akihiko players. Which hits (i.e. i know Caesar does) lead into damage over 2.3k on counterhit? Playing a low life character is balls sometimes, trying to see what to watch out for.

Correctomundo. I'll probably be drafted to run Persona and KOF, but I'm not for sure yet on what my role will be. For now it's hype man. We go with your good graces. YES IT DOES. We all need to be spamming it everywhere getting the word out. Twitter, facebook, word of mouth, notes chiseled into desks at school, post-it's on dogs... all that mess.

This is the spirit of MTNG right here.

A macaroni drawing of everyone in MTNG surrounded by a macaroni heart.

I can do a poster. I have a couple good ideas. =D Hahaha good stuff, man. As an aside, I've timed 2 out of 3 sets before. They typically only take a minute thirty. Two at max, I just need prompt results is all.

^ agree. I never really liked enforcing it and we haven't really had a problem with this, but I will DQ both players from now on if you don't gtfup and report to me or whoever is in charge of brackets while I'm in a match. But I'd like not to have this discussion again. The question was AABB or Pokemon style. @woz: great. 29th is the fourth week, so I'm glad there is no discrepancy. What kind of prize would you guys like to see? Something weeaboo? Something else?

Next tournament talk: What team format do you prefer? AABB is very fair, but I know a lot of people like Pokemon(winner stays) style. Next Last Saturday Of The Month is the 29th. Woz, do you have a scheduling issue, I forget? I'm going to do some scientific testing to see if HD Lag exists on either machine since I have both. Next tournament will be STREAMED and I'll probably throw in an additional prize.

Who's gonna be at fight night, yo?
