I'm trying out the wifi here at this other hotel. Lots of lag spikes. I think this was the first time I faced off against a Sakura on 1.03. She can put loads of pressure now with the light spinning kick. Happy new year to everyone! I really want to go back home to have a perfect connection and get back on the sf4v scene.
I really don't like that bison's devil's reverse now hits crouching opponents (still not an overhead, thankfully). Punishing that on whiff was a big part of my game against bison.
I think he should only have standing hard punch for pressure and maybe his sonic boom could be a light version, making it slow.
Cody is pretty hard to use in my opinion. It looks like his playstyle is to bait he opponent into one of his anti airs. He can charge his projectile to hit people that are jumping but you have to guess right and it doesn't come out on time. I also dislike how his moves are all overlapped.
So I think I finally figured out a winning strategy against middle of the pack Blankas. Just made a 2000 BP Blanka named Jasonella rage quit because he had absolutely no clue what to do (although as a rage quitter he probably wasn't a true 2000 BP player). Beat a couple lower ranked ones yesterda. It's huge for me since Blankas have always been so tough for my Dhalsim. Happy new year everyone!!
Haha. I didn't say because it sounds so simple. About 75% of the times that I'm in the air and want to punch, I use spear instead and then mix up my landing move. I always took so much damage against Blankas with my jumping punches (a lot more than with most characters). A lot of Blanka's attacks beat or at least trade with Dhalsim's jump punch. Spear is the exact opposite of jump punch. Opponents also get caught off guard landing on their feet. Like I said, it helps most against low and mid level Blankas but I need the help in that matchup.
I don't think sims use a close up spear enough either (at least until it becomes predictable). Can it be used as a cross up? Off topic: how are people able to get special characters in their signature in the game?
Honestly, got bored. I just switch characters on a whim and right now I'm not in the mood to play like Cody wants players to play.
Well it doesn't combo into anything (that I know of) so it can be dangerous. I haven't done extensive testing but i do not believe it can be used as a cross up. For sigs, I think the only way to do it is to cut and paste them in.
I played EdenUnborn the famous SF4V rage quitter this morning. His Akuma has gotten better since the last time I played him in ver 1.00. He still rage quits... something will never change in 2012
Yoga Spear crosses up... The cross-up part has little practical use in Volt and AE in my opinion. I use Yoga Spear for rush-down, escaping and baiting
The app store freeze ended a couple days ago, though... although, I don't expect Capcom to update this until the middle of the month.
What's the top team doing?! They have gained an additional 200 TP overnight! I don't think we can catch them.
how do you go to japanese server and play with those players? even after change the lanauge in the game, I still connect to all the US server players. I want play with all the Japanese players. lol
I don't know if this is true, but setting it to Asia might work. In the Ranked Match Options, under Region.
You have to do it really close to the ground to combo it but it is easier than most other dives because it works for all the crouching directions.
you cant changing the language or region wont make a difference. if you really wanted to you could probably download it from te japanese app store but that might not work either
