There's a Ky at my locals who regularly kicks my rear end using the analog stick on a DS4. I just assumed he was using the d pad until one day I looked at his hands and was like what the hell man

Shaped like a friend

When I was a teen I had never played a fighting game before and figured I'd start with Third Strike (I heard it was the best) and got some PS2 SF collection to bring to a friends house. Friends older brother stopped by while we were setting up and was like "Holy poo poo you guys are actually playing Street Fighter? I'm proud of ya!" before challenging us. Friend backed down but I stuck around and got my rear end beat because that dude loved him some Street Fighter.

All I knew was how to toss fireballs as Ryu/Ken and do the Tatsumaki. The Shoryuken motion didn't make much sense to me so whenever I actually pulled it off was amazing. We went on for like a hour and I only won 3-4 games of it but a highlight was my friend (and another pal of his that showed up halfway in) going "wow those two guys really love fighting games they're both really good!" while I'm sitting there button mashing trying to get the combos to come out.

That's my Street Fighter Story thank you.

They're trying to do the dota2 thing where the DLC money boosts the pot of the Capcom Cup

It probably should've been $10-15 though

I'm not interested in constructive criticism, believe me.
Remember how Guilty Gear XRD just announced a DLC character,

coming out literally tomorrow,

for free.

Also a free balance patch that came out minutes after Top 8 ended.

Play Guilty Gear.

Just watched Nemo with Vega in Top 8, just cause I was curious about what a Top 8 Vego would look like...
I've literally seen nothing new there. It was just came 'ol poo poo I've done myself a million times just done infinitely more cleaner and cleverer (since he's a pro and I'm a scrub).
Same Mp poking, same lk-ing when under pressure, same claw ditching at the start of the match. I almost fell asleep half-way through.
Whole game is so loving linear.

I get this feeling when watching Nash and Chun too, even as someone with limited knowledge, all of the matches seem really samey.

Doesn't help that most of these are mirrors.

I'm actually a little happy that they're doing EVO in Japan because it'll only be a 1 hour flight from here and the whole 13-hour flight to Las Vegas thing + expensive hotels there is a huge turn off for me.
