Aftermath1349

Not sure of the method your using but a very easy way to IAD is when grounded, put the stick into the 9 position. This registers as a forward and a jump, then immediately hit dash. So 9>66.

Will anyone there have an unmodded TE I could use? I have a 360 stick but haven't dual modded it.

@Skye Any advice for when Mu has lasers out, you j6 whatever for the dart attack to cover ground (or edge of screen teleport etc) but the Mu backdashes leaving you open to her normals? Blocking seems to just give her the ability to safely get in position for more lasers or if I try to punish I end up eating a C attack. I know I need to play this matchup more patiently but I still don't see the holes in her game to capitalize on which makes playing patiently a death wish.

What's the info on that gathering? Is it open to anyone that wants to play?

...well, this thread took the usual DL turn to stupidity. See ya

Thank you. As a Mu player what gives you trouble in this matchup?

I didn't say curse loop was hard. I was referring to negative edging the CD bugs. I personally have trouble with that kind of stuff on pad because I have very big hands so I can't really do 236C and then immediatelly NE D because my thumb is an asshole.

Any advice on dealing with lasers? As soon as two or more are called out I'm fucked. The mix of lasers plus her far reaching normals gives me no space to set up for curse. Easily my worst matchup...

I imagine CS Arakune is a bit of a hassle on controller. Negative edging for curse loops/setups could be annoying.

Trust me I've been trying lol. I think were going to Atlanta Revival on the 18th. Anyone on XBL in this thread I'm not friends with: send me a FR. This games netcode is fucking terrible so if I can get comp that's close it'll help.

Dammit, I liked my mid tier Ara lol.

*sigh* Firstly Poison is NOT confirmed in any way as a playable character. There is a 99.999% chance that Ono is trying to be clever and is actually hinting at Hugo. Even then, Ono is a MASSIVE fucking troll so who knows. Second, as much as I wish that hat on Blanka is a Q reference I'm not going to put a lot of faith into it (or lie about Ono having it custom made as a Q hat) because that's actually a replica of Kens Alt 3 hat. The company that made the real replicas for EVO also made one for Onos Blanka toy. Oh and Yun, more or less, confirmed. http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2010/sep/06/teaser-image-may-show-part-new-ssf4-character/

Is that kind of thing popular with fighting games in japan? Because anything added is stuff for the arcade release, primarily.

Every character probably has multiple normals that they can backdash and punish with but a good Vega isn't going to let that tactic beat him. Vegas wall jump is controllable which means once a Vega gets punished he can start playing with you. Vega crossups can be very ambiguous. I'm going to go ahead and say that there is a zero percent chance that Sodom will make it in.

My two mains are Dudley and Hakan and neither have great options for dealing with wall jump shenanigans. Dudleys DP is a massive pile of shit.

SSFIV Vega = more annoying than Arakune

I'm willing to bet that Ono wasn't hinting at Poison being playable but hinting more that Hugo is in. He's stated in the past that he'd love to add Hugo so I geuss we'll see. I'm not a big fan of grapplers and Hugo without parry seems... Wrong. But if true I'll give him a shot. Much rather see Q though... Re: Fei alt. That shits badass. Will totally rock the inevitable black and red suit.

I play Dudley in 3S and main him in SSFIV (though I'm taking a long break from it for a far better game) so I'm not expecting much if Q or Oro actually make it in. I've seen what happens to interesting characters when put into the SFIV engine so not only am I ready for shitty Q but I actually hope he turns out sub average because a character like Q doesn't need to be high or even mid tier.

Fuck those two. Add Q and Oro.

I'm in Peachtree City. If you feel like sparring let me know and I can either drive to you or vice versa. Do you play on 360 or PS3? Edit: NVM, saw your PS3 tag. I have a friend who plays on 360 with a converter and a PS3 pad so if we can all get together were set. Fair warning though: that friends is Taoish who is a VERY good Taokaka. He will make you cry.

I'm also in the boat that thinks that AH's are viable but dick. I use mine occasionally (new command FTW!) but I never go into a match expecting to use it. I'll sometimes just notice that I've built up 100 heat due to not getting my opponent into the situation I want and will just throw it out to be a dick for my own amusement more or less.
