@Arya: fancy running into you over in Japan. It's been a long time since I played your Bison and MAN is he beast! Made me feel like *I* was the one at a disadvantage in that match! xD @JustinTenonez: Man those matches were FUN! Balrog's stamina makes playing the poking game with Guile a hard way to win, but I loved how we were juking back and forth throwing out moves. Sorry I had to leave so soon, me and my girl are in Key West and we gotta go see the sights!
Good games man! You did well with spacing me out and being cautious when approaching. I had to think hard on when to do a move or I would eat a Sonic Boom or an overhead combo. It was definitely fun and no prob. I hope you both have fun in Key West.
Tell me about it, it cleared up after that Honda game though. But Heif man Why is your Honda so good!? No- Let me rephrase that, why is Honda so good!?!? Also, Durring our Gief/Sim match I had to hide my phone for a little bit, my boss was right next to me, sorry lol Anyone else want to play, Im cant stand the connection of these kids online, slower than dial-up I tell you.
Wasn't all Honda, bro I made some REALLY good plays in our few matches that we had. I was impressed with myself, my timing even with the lag was perfect. I had Honda vs Fei matches against Ten0nez, again proficient training for Honda.. lol Yeah, I stopped attacking you that first round cause I realized. Sim got badly cornered, nothing I could do haha.
GG D4. I almost had your Viper but my boss was calling so I had to end it quick no matter what It was ultra or die for me.
Haha I know, Honda cant do it without the right guy navigating the controls Apprunner, please tell me you didnt just do what I think you did...
Lol alright I knew you wouldnt go over to the dark side Also, I think its official it doesnt matter the skill level of the player, I will always lose to Cammy. Something Ill just have to live with as a player.
Hey Berserk, if that was you that sent me invite, would you be down in about 50 mins to play? I will shoot you an invite and see if your available.
Don't get down.... Cammy is a tough match up. You have to be really quick and reactive, but also guess correctly, and have enough defense to block the chaos. Its a tough match for most, try Sagat next time
Yo Adam!! Nice to run into you on Japanese server!! I also ran into Leonel haha!! We gotta play some of our awesome friendlies some time!! :-D Derrick I think that was the hardest Sakura mirror I've ever played!! You have one mean Sakura!! I think it's safe to say we're quite equal =P I'm gonna upload 4 replays, 2 of you winning and 2 of me winning!! Play you again soon!!!
Wouldn't mind practicing my Ryu more with you tonight if you are free. My Cammy is as good as its gonna get. Do you lose to all Cammys If you want, I can give you as much Cammy matches as you want but I know the Bison matchup too well. Play other Cammys to get a better feel. I think Hieu has a great Cammy and even Heif can play her too. Avoid Felix as his is part of the Holy Trinity...may be too much for you
So I need some input. I really want to reset my Japanese account and start from ground level with a new main and purely play this new character. On the one hand, I like playing honda a lot and would like to get much better with him, but on the other hand, I like the fact that Sagat is over powered and I will have a much easier road at becoming a top tier sagat... So, what do you guys think? And keep in mind, I have a very hard time playing defensive, so if you guys have input about one being able to be more aggressive than the other let me know.. I don't know a lot about the matchups for either of them... So if anyone is so inclined, I would love to see a Honda does well against x but has trouble with y, and same for Sagat. I would really appreciate any and all input, because I want to really commit to this and follow through! thanks!
Sure thing man I definitely need the practice as well, I've only been playing Bison fir the last week and a half and it has brought down the efficiency of all my other characters, playing Viper against you brought it to my attention, I couldnt even link cr.Mk to Thunderknuckle...I was also constantly trying to charge..haha The cammy thing, Its just been getting instead of getting better against her Ive just gotten worse and worse, Any Cammy 1500 Bp and above gets free wins from me.
You can use Cammy against me and I will show you how to beat her using Ryu Fei and Viper have a better shot of beating Cammy than Bison for sure. Guile, Gief, and Ryu have the best shot.
Honda is solid all around, he does have trouble getting in against zoners but even then if he has meter, Its a free way to get in and get damage, whether it gets blocked or on hit, Hondas in the exact position he wants to be. Hundred Hands is good AA but can get punished, EX Sumo smash is probably the second best AA in the game. Hondas wake up game is decent, against an opponent that like to block on his wakeup, command Grab is gdlk, Against opponents that like to jump or Srk, Sumo Smash will hit them out or trade everytime. EX headbut is a full screen punish that goes through everything, punishes people for walking forward(Bullshit!!). Honda m's only weakness is a crappy mixup/Crossup game but because of autoblock most characters lack this anyway. I know nothing about Sagat except that his cr.lk,tigerknee frame traps are stupid. Too much priority on that move with a too quick if a recovery time. Jump kick into standing Kick as a block string is pretty dumb too.
