i dont like insulting other sites or whatever cause i dont like choosing sides but DAMN /r/Kappa is trash... the comments just frustrates me...
r/fighters frustrates me a lot more, I've only ever made one comment in a thread where someone was looking for tutorials to use a stick and I said something like "I don't think you need a tutorial" and got downvoted twice! What a bunch of scrubs I swear to god.

I filter my ranked matches to more skilled..and win most of the matches. Then i cant find shit. Then i go to 'any' and get stomped by dudes who bought the game yesterday.

im just imagining a deadpan stick tutorial where someone describes the basic inputs

"tilting the stick left gives you a left input. tilting the stick down gives you a down input"

There used to be an old adage about how no one learned how to throw a fireball after 1996. I don't think If you were demoing a fighting games to the gaming press and pulled 10 people at random, I think the over/under on who could do a DP semi-consistently would be 1.5. There is something to be said about that, as sad as it sounds.

Hell, I remember when my brothers who were pumped for SF4 and were playing it a bunch when it came out... and they had no idea you could do stuff like DP FADC Ultra.

To be fair, FADC is pretty obtuse.

Christ, I've sifted through more than 10 hours of footage from SCR just trying to find some +R Ky and it looks like no one's playing him. I found one match featuring Ky (which I skipped over thinking I'd be able to get back to it later and now I can't find it). Anyone got any good +R Ky footage?

I don't want to have to march through the vigorous and hazy sandstorms of a-cho youtube footage without some guidance.

the only ones that I know of are jourdal2012 and goldenrody. Sometimes the dustloop character page has a bunch of links to matches

This may help https://www.youtube.com/user/Goldenrody/search?query=ky++r

You mean this thread for example?

http://www.dustloop.com/forums/showthread.php?2906-Accent-Core-Ky-Video-Thread/page7

I'm "SynikaL" in that thread asking for recent high-level footage of AC Ky in 2012.

Dustloop forums is one of the worst resources for learning GG, ironically. Almost anywhere else is better. The wiki's great but the forums are dead and unorganized.

Not american footage, but it should help

Today wasn't cold and you know it wasn't. It was a bit of snow and like -15?
Wasn't out for the snow, but yeah try standing out in those shitty bus stops funnelling wind through your feet for 30 mins and you might say something different.

Every chat room I go to somebody is talking trash about Beef. What is Beef doing to piss these people off?

I was outside today for probably a total of 2 hrs and yeah 45 of which involved waiting for a bus. It's not that bad and today was relatively warm compared to other recent days.

The worst thing about winter is people bitching about the cold. Grow a pair.

And to New Yorkers, I found out about the "cold" you've been having, 5F boohoo. That's nothing either. Talk to me when it starts hitting -30F or something, then I'll start agreeing that the weather actually sucks.

So it wasn't bad because there were colder days. Okay.

Indians clearly not built for this weather, I guess.

Did a Canadian just tell someone to "grow a pair"?

What is happening?

What does being Canadian have to do with telling people to sac up?


edit: enzo today wasn't bad at all, regardless of colder days. Don't bust that self racism on me either. It's not like the colour of your skin dictates the ability to handle the cold. An okay jacket and a hat and this weather's nothing.

Like I said, I'm so sick of complaints about the cold when it really hasn't been that bad. If you're cold in -15 that's your own fault for spending your money on toys than a decent jacket.

Ya, sorry about that. A lot of brain drain happened as everyone started finishing up their schooling. And at the same time, AC just came out and was vastly different to prior Guilty Gears and that caused some people to lose interest and wait for the next (next) GG, or just plain leave.

Things should be better with Xrd.

-30 F?

Phff... call me when you have experienced 50 F.

I actually did experience it in Multan. I think it was like 4th hottest temperature every recorded on earth or something absurd like that. And they don't got central ACs over there like they do here in 1st world countries.

I don't complain about the weather either way. If it's too hot then that sucks but whatever. If it's too cold then that sucks but whatever. The only time I was frustrated at the cold in recent times was when our power went out and I had no heat for a few days in my apartment.

I went to Morocco in the summer and it was 46 at the hottest I think, I have also been to Edmonton in the winter where it was around -40. The cold is way worse IMO.

I grew up in Edmonton and then later Saskatoon. -40 is a real bitch for sure. I remember falling on some ice in like -36 degree weather as a kid, crying and having the ice instantly freeze to my face making it hurt even more. Sure don't miss that!


But this http://www.theweathernetwork.com/last-24-hours/canada/ontario/toronto is absolutely nothing. My girlfriend's lived in Los Angeles and surrounding area her whole life and even agrees it's nothing with decent clothing for the situation.

Yeah fuck that. I prefer heat to cold any day of the week but yeah I'd probably die staying out for 5 consecutive minutes.

For real, haha

Maybe I just need more sleep. 1 hour yesterday, 2 the day before. I wish it was highschool and I could pull 3-4 hours a day consistently for weeks. Definitely couldn't feel my feet when I woke up, still can't feel them now.
 
For me cold weather isn't bad, its 10 inches of snow and icey driving conditions that will get me. Give me -20F with clear roads over 5-10F with 10 inches of snow..
