From the reports I hear it's actually worse for some people.

Oy Dacid. I found some guy in UCSD.. I swear he reminds me of you in appearance..

Had to admit this made me smile when very few other things would.

You're gonna have negative opinions of a game when one of its renditions falls very far short of most people's expectations and the only reason it is played is the hope that the upcoming rendition is much better. This is not a hard psychological concept to grasp.

Why did my senses not inform me of the soon-to-be existence of Sesame's doujin earlier. At least it's rated PG-13.

The approving posts mechanic is simply one that exists to prevent spambots from doing any damage, if I am correct. What, then, would explain the lack of such bots posting here recently?

I didn't import it cause well.. no money. But $30 for a digital localized copy? Now that's a steal.

Time for me to bug Polka-mon and Soniti to get this to happen.

To be fair to all parties involved, optimism/pessimism is COMPLETELY irrelevant to the counterargument.

Please. Let's not make assumptions. Huey.. You are saying that due to the IB nerf, using a rising j.a is essentially gapless? According to the chat, this is what you are saying. Verdict: We have determined that Huey is correct in his analysis, but he's overblowing the importance of the move. According to Polka, due to j.a causing the combo to do less damage overall, there needs to be meter and a good corner to make maximal use of it. Let's hope this settles things. EDIT: Watched a video.. You still wind before the j.a hits. So you might be wrong there. still really fast though. Might not be easy to react to.

As to whether the overhead is reactable through any other means is beyond my very minimal knowledge of the game. In before dustloop starts bashing rachel for one single move like they tend to do with a character every installment.

Rachel skype chat determined that it's 4 frames of jump + 8 of j.a startup. That's 12 frames.. Are we messing up with our math somewhere?

If anything, I'd probably bet it on this. Also because America never really was any good at playing even CT Rachel (with a couple exceptions). What you got was someone who needed a lot of effort for no reward. Now with our hindsight you'd be right with how there were characters that were worse. But back then, no way to tell. Well, this AND the fact that rachel stopped being fun to play with so many nerfs, which was probably why SJ and Alzarath stopped playing her.

To me, it's not about Rachel being good again. It's about Rachel being fun to play again.

Everyone always aims to win with their games.. However, there's a certain amount of emphasis that each player puts into that goal. Some people care more about developing their skills with a character they like than they care about winning. Some people will pick the best character because they want to win. However, what you're implying is that there are limitations onto how well you can do in a tourney with a non top tier, which (unless the character is REALLY bad) probably isn't true at the level being played at in America. Point is that no one is wrong.. You just need to recognize the other viewpoint. EDIT: Actually, I missed your point.. You already know this. I don't think any of us are on the same page. I think we should just stop now.. We don't need any more of this spam in LK's help thread.

It seems you completely missed Axis' point. Although your logic on probability is sound.

Let me go through these recent ones. The ones I remember I see people failing to block 4B all the time. Let's see if that changes.

I think the general gist of what they're saying is that you won't improve as much if you rely on a character's pumped up strengths to cover up your own weaknesses. Tier whoring doesn't make you bad, but it kinda offers some crutches to the learning process. At least that's what I'm interpreting.

He's gonna commence mooching operations in about three seconds..,.

We'll seeeee..

I really liked the teenage Rachel sprite too. Then got immediately turned off by the abominations.
