Fighting Games Weekly | March 3-9 | Edition Edition

Going back to that Xrd tier list that was posted a while back. I don't think it's anything to be worried about.

The game's only been out for a short while and so far I've seen some decent Potemkin players. None that I would put up on Ogawa's level for example, but then again I think placement in these lists is definitely shaped based on if exceptionally skilled players pick up a given character or not, and not necessarily only because of how good or bad the character's tools are.

I guess I'm just one of those people who has never payed attention to lists or have let them affect character choice. If Potemkin proves to be in need of a boost over a long term then I don't see why Arcsys wouldn't do so in a future patch since they have that capability. Regardless, I don't think basing a purchasing decision on one person's list of something that is quite likely to change with inevitable patches is a good idea (saying this because one person's comment gave me that impression).

I'm sad to see East Coast in this state. It seems when Chris G left, things just went downhill even further.

gootecks mike ross was good:

- infil dan is amazing, perfect timing on some of those tauns. so funny.

- really hated the reason given for wanting Ultra only mode for USF4. "it's too crazy" or "it's too many matchups" . I don't feel like we should limit the game because it's getting too complicated. Gamerbee seemed to be one of the few who understood that.

Doesn the 234D have to be input within a specific window when trying to do LS? I find I can't get it to come out consistently. Especially after 6K. Really weird.


*edit*

What are people doing after the Chrage Drove wall splat? Standard AC bob (cr. HS, j.k, j.s, double jump etc)?

According to the frame data you have from frames 9-27 of Charged Stun Edge to cancel into Lightning Sphere.

After Charge Drive I think you can do something like dash up 6HS, 2HS -> wall stick VT loop... ending in 6HS 6K CSE oki. I haven't messed around with Charge Drive combos too much so this might not work exactly.

pls dont get banned as a junior. id suggest you take the link off.

Strict eh? Figured. I find just find it gunny how he mentions that and ASW immediately releases that lol They will let their characters go to the lowest of lows for sales. Heads up for anybody getting into BB and BB merch, that series is really sexually charged.

Pretty sure it's not worse than the rachel and plat pictures in the gallery :lol

Let me tell you, the first time I seriously watched BB some dudes thought it would funny to leave those images up on stream for a bit. Wasn't the best intro to the series.

i assume, a lot of mods are quick to ban without giving the poster a chance, especially of they're juniors. i think shouta would have let it slide with you since its probably your first time

Yeah, idk what is and isn't fine lol Again, it was just funny timing and I wanted to prove a point about the BB devs being, well, yeah. I could really go on about how much that game creeps out, and how I I eye roll with how they treat their characters.

Yup. You always think it's fan art, then Comiket bonuses happen.

They straight up admit they do all that pandering for sells in japan to get preorders and stuff :lol

Yup, can't argue with that. I will still eye roll like crazy though.

That's Japan for you, the motherland of anime.

And obscene use of adolescent girls.

Well according to another thread, XB1 streaming is superior to PS4. Step it up Sorny.

I see that, all that Microsoft money and the Twitch app is better integrated in because it is not a hardware function but a separate functioning app that you can snap in and out. That's the one thing XB1 has really well is the ease of multitasking, the rest of the system is garbage to me aesthetically (UI wise) and just as a platform. Pretty much went Wii U/PC route for this gen. I just know two years down the line things will change though. Just let me be able to use my current TE that I have a huge attachment to and a new fighting game and I'm in.

LOL fuck this character.

Maining day one for lulz since Ky has almost nothing to learn :D

Now that you mention it, I guess I can put a ton more effort into another character since Ky barely needs any adjustments from my part lol. I'm waiting for how playable Valentine looks. That and I want to learn Faust.

Ky, hurry up and go free Dizzy

has he learned how to finally speak into a mic or does he still think it needs to be in his throat?

anyone wanna sum up what Bum is talking about

There was an issue with people saying he was taking competition away from Next Level. Apparently there is a Marvel turf war now which is stupid. Props to Bum holding it down, I respect what he's doing and people go because the House of Crack is probably a fun time and not all uptight and sterile like Next Level.

House of Crack isn't an open venue. Next Level is. Huge difference.
