imagine being the guy who tries to give Timely Howard, one of the best goon fighting game players who *lives in japan*, the sage advice of "try blocking" to beat Itazan, who also thinks Chris G has bad footsies, and telling anybody else the things they say have no worth

Why can't Capcom ask the Skullgirls guys for their netcode? I remember playing that against Americans across the pond with 175 ping and even then it still had less rollback than what most 5-bar connections in SFV have.

GGPO is basically the best rollback netcode available, but the idea of Japanese companies using something developed by other people if they can avoid it...hahahahahaha. Also the discussion about that Chris G match is dumb because he was fishing for the corner combo the whole match.

Is cr.HP the go to normal for cancelling into specials for Laura? And is there a reason the trials all use jmp.HK to start combos? It seems like a badass anti-air but jmp.HP looks like the better jump in. I like Laura's style but it's hard not to go dumb with her elbow and forward->HP->HP->air throw thing. Edit: Any handy beginner tips for her would be cool really. I'm switching off between her and Mika, and then using the Ryu guide posted last page when the salt is too strong. Edit2: The tip about people instinctively expecting a 2nd fireball was really helpful. That's the simple kind of mind game I can keep in my head while a match, has a lot of applications and it's really easy to see when someone flips their thinking and STOPS expecting the 2nd.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to the combos in the trials. A lot of them aren't practical, or the best use of meter

Yeah but I don't know poo poo and everytime someone describes which normals to use for a character I'm always surprised about what does what, especially Hard's. I assume that one just has a great hitbox and beats everything in the air, but I don't know.

I'm not trying to dogpile because that seems dumb and bad but what does this post even actually mean? Every player does what you're describing (playing to their perceived strengths) to varying degrees; even if you thought this was 100% true - that ChrisG sucks at footsies and AA - "relies solely on his combo execution to carry a match" is an intensely weird criticism, especially given how this game seems to work w/r/t opening people up for those combos to even land Also, what the gently caress is a "shimmy"? From what I gather it's literally just "step into throw range, then step back out," which we didn't really need a name for before but now it's a ~thing~ for the fighting game community to spout off about, as if what Street Fighter needs is more arcane jargon

Foodahn posted:cr.mk will combo into lp elbow, if it hits you're something like +2 so you can do a mp(?)/throw mixup. I don't remember what it is on block but I think it's safe? Maybe. I don't know off the top of my head, but if it's not at least close, I can't see a reason for it to exist. Not that that's ever stopped capcom.

Intel&Sebastian posted:I don't know off the top of my head, but if it's not at least close, I can't see a reason for it to exist. Not that that's ever stopped capcom. lp elbow is -2 on block, you just lose momentum if it doesn't land. You still have some options if its blocked, jab will win more than it should and ex elbow can armor through a lot. For the other questions, cr.mp, cr.hp, st.lp/lk and cr.mk are all fine for cancelling into elbow, cr.hp does the most dmg/best range but is slower so riskier. I don't know her jump normals well but j.hk probably hits farther forward than j.hp, so it has some use for tagging people with max range jumps that are hard to AA. if you still wanna use f.hp there are ways to make it safe but I don't know em. If you're not already, start replacing command grabs with backthrows. Her backthrow easily allows for another mixup, can loop into itself and can be done right after lp elbow. If someone jumps you can react punish them with hp elbow. You don't even lose that much damage doing it over the command throw, and its faster!

Thanks! I saw a vid that showed off a lot of the backthrow tech yesterday and it looked cool. How should I start working in her v-skills? I don't see many people talking about her V-Dashing and the only things I've seen about the overhead is that you want to keep it at max range, it's cancelable (or cancelable into?) and it causes a crush counter on people in the air. I would have figured this would be an option after that back throw but it didn't get mentioned. Is there some other overhead for her that's more useful?

Would you have been okay with it if the initial jumping throw punish did all that damage and stun in one hit and he reset into throw afterwards and got the stun that way

three months into using the fight stick alpha by madcatz and it looking like I've cracked the bottom ball of the joystick. it's still intact but I thought for sure the buttons would have gone out first. Still a good beginner's stick for anyone who's looking to getting one but doesn't want to drop 200 bucks on one. I'd say I'm just heavy handed person but I'm thinking the only reason it's cracked like this is because I'm holding down back. I'm not playing a charge fighter.

What part of it broke exactly? Do you mean the joystick ball itself cracked? Also for what it's worth, it's really easy to replace the stick in that one with a sanwa or seimitsu. The buttons are really annoying to replace however, they are welded on and the wires are so short you essentially have to require everything to get standard buttons in there.

Yeah the bottom half of joystick ball has cracked. I tired to take a photo but I couldn't get a good look at the crack. I'm definitely going to to try and replace the joystick cuz I've also heard it's easy to replace. The button on the other hand looks pretty tough to change out unless you know what your doing. but for someone that hasn't touched an arcade cabnet in years the buttons seem to be pretty good.
