For the first point, I am assuming you mean in a combo and not when making someone block it and it just has to deal with proration. In some combos, it isn't possible to do all the hits and have the later parts hit and since the later parts are more important, you want to cut it short. Again assuming you are talking about combos, I haven't really noticed a huge difference between cancelling 3C earlier unless you are going to be out of range if you continue hitting them. However, if you are going for knockdown, it matters of course. Someone else could probably come up with a perfect combo example but I can't since I generally just break my combos into pieces and stitch them together in matches and suck at remembering combos.

If you see him sledge, jump. If he holds sledge, IAD back and jump again. If he releases it, you can pretty much j2DD->j214D him for free if you spaced right. If he doesn't do the follow-up, then it punishes it freely. If he does the follow-up, it'll eat the j2DD but then he would get CH by j214D once the projectile invincibility runs out. Of course, if you are in range of the follow-up then you should just block.

GGs Nick. Sorry about leaving so soon. Some unexpected guests showed up.

Anyone wanna play?

GGs Chaos_Kalibur, Wandering, Zabe1313, Akira-Shiro, and Silfer21. It was nice to fight you again Chaos. Pretty sure the last time we fought was when AH3 came out. And sorry about not re-joining your room. Didn't see the invite. Edit: That's weird. I never use jA to space. But that might be because Lambda's sucks. If I use jA, I am most likely just gonna purple throw you hoping for that throw reject miss.

Don't you know by now that you are too good for most random rooms you find Zeth?

GGs Mort, Mucky and Mac. That feeling when you get caught in a 720 and you know that it is going to kill and having to watch Tager slowly throw you and smash you down is bad.

That was amazing

I feel sort of bad about how I am playing against Mucky. I wouldn't be doing half of the stuff I am if we were on PSN. Then again, I can't do some of the stuff I could do on PSN anyway so I guess it balances out.

You should get online and play me, Mucky and Mort. The matches will be that much more fun. And I used to be able to use the 360 pad...

We should play tomorrow Tempest. I want to test a new tactic out against Rachel

I don't know which is better. When they do that or when they hitconfirm a 5A/2A into super.

It's because I guess when I knock you down or whenever you have me in a blockstring. If I make the correct guesses, I win. If I don't, you win. It only takes a couple right or wrong guesses to end a round. It also helps that we both mess up inputs (I facepalm everytime I see you get CH out of 6A by a sword when it should have been that stupid dash move). That's fine. It gives me time to get back to pre-PS3 Extend levels on my 360.

Do you have to aim to be good in a fighting game to buy it? You wouldn't get it just to play for a change of pace from BB once in awhile? I don't aspire to be anything more than a mashing scrub in pretty much every fighting game I own outside of AH3, Garou and now GG again but I still find them fun to play.

You should have called it wang manor.

GGs Mac. I need to play on XBL a lot more. My beloved controller felt so awkward.

Anyone wanna play?

I've never felt disheartened when people block everything I do. I just change tactics to time then. And I don't think anyone was saying mash out of every overhead. Just the obvious and bad shit like Ragna's 2B->6B

But then you are just left blocking...Isn't it better to take the initiative and get out?

You are an amazing person because of your great taste in games.

But you did them in like every blockstring. I only wish I had the balls that Mucky does to just mash out of your overheads. Why didn't you try to mash out when I did the set-up? I was trying to use its invincibility to do a counter grab but you refused to press buttons.

Obviously, the game is telling you not to use Platinum against me. That lag... GGs Mucky and Gamma. Lots of fun was had. And can Bang delay his astral or is it really that easy to just backdash it?

You use a shit ton of overheads Gamma.

Anyone still playing or is it too late at night for you guys?

Gonna be on tomorrow? I need Valk experience.
