Oh and ANOTHER Ken in Ranked who quit after one loss. I think I seemed to have interrupted his flow chart of fireball, fireball, fireball, jump in cross up, and wake up Dp.
Anyway I should be on tonight for you guys to give me a spanking as per usual. It would be nice to play people who aren't raging dicks. That's you guys, you're dicks that I actually like.

I still cant accept those character counts. I play *so* many guiles. That's weird because I hardly play any.As a rough percentage maybe 5%, about the same as Lilly. Guile mirrors are awful though so maybe other Guile players check the match up and decline.

And maybe I have the opposite. You can keep out Marisa pretty well with him.

Yeah, weirdly as a Guile player I think I've only had a couple of mirror matches. Defo played a lot of runaway Kens. So far the characters I struggle most against are Manon and Juri.

I think the servers are a bit flaky at the moment. Had a couple of random lag spikes earlier.

GG's may have been my Internet. I need to reboot the he router.
Though I've had a few ranked games drop today so could be server.

So I went online after a couple of weeks of world tour and people really like going in don't they
I had a zangief that wouldnt stop jumping no matter what I did and a Cammy that would do full screen super
It just forces you to sit back and punish mistakes

I might have to take a break. Got up to Platinum and was close to Platinum two stars when I had a barrage of players absolutely dominate me.
The gulf in skill was substantial, one mistake and boom! 14 hit drive rush combo. I'd say I lost maybe 30 or more games and got pumped all the way down to Gold 4.
Thing is I just don't think I have the dexterity to master the long combo chains or the reflexes for reversals, you really need to have both to play at a high level.
The rage was substantial. The pad is still in one piece, just.

Im happy to play just to skill up, if you want. I played a long set against another marisa who was better at some stuff than me and I was better at others. By the end we had both picked up bits and pieces from the other person and played to pretty much a stalemate.
We are fairly close in power level, I think.

Played some ranked today, Gief Dhalsim matchup is still hard as fuck, had a good go with a Ryu though, can tell he got a bit angry after I just kept parrying every fireball. I think I counted 10 in a row.
Still get super nervous every time I play online. What's the about? I never get it with online shooters.

I guess no one is watching you with shooter, in fighting games the other player is only watching you and you are pitting your skill versus there's. No where to hide

Thanks for ruining my confidence just before I have to go out user San. GG man, I swear I was blocking some of your stuff but it's Lily's buff isn't it? I think you're the only Lily I've ever seen playing online. Which is interesting.

Thanks for boosting my confidence before I stay in on a Saturday night 😀
So condor spire needs to be careful spaced but if I have wind stock it will always be plus 1 so if I go for the command throw which is 5 frame then it can only be beaten by a 4 frame jab so it turns into a 50/50.
You can avoid it drive impact if I'm a distance away as it only hits 3 times if I'm close

Red Bull Kumite is today! 16 man invitational tournament including previous Capcom cup / evo winners like ProblemX & Bonchan, as well a high flying early SF6 powerhouses like Mr Crimson & BigBird. Single elimination but each set is FT5. This is the first true test of each region. Will Japan be dominant again? It should be worth watching for BigBird’s Marisa alone! Starts on this YouTube channel at 1pm: www.youtube.com/live/xYXlak-APuA?feature=share

Also I did some avatar battles for drive bux yesterday and a guy was teabagging me because he was level 60 and I was level 12. Weird flex.

I also did avatar battles yesterday and realised that because I made a tall character my drive impact (ken) doesn't hit crouching characters... Too much thought has to go into this!

I just watched oil kings chun li and he makes the character look amazing, maybe I should pick her up.. I'm sure I'm going to think this after every match

There have been so many great matches. But currently Kakeru is making JP look waaay too strong haha. Did a speed run on Ending Walker yesterday, then blew up both NL and ProblemX today. Now he faces BigBird - who has just beaten Zhen. IMO their match will decide the winner. They’re both so good.
Edit: I think so far my favourite match has been BigBird vs AngryBird. It was so good.

I need to sort a joystick out, pronto. I now have the thumb of a 90 year old, arthritic woman.

Yeah it's hell on the thumb.
The callous on the side of my left thumb is in stark contrast to the rest of my soft and delicate office worker digits.

One of the reasons Im mainly playing Marisa rather than Blonka is holding charge is giving me cramp. God, getting old sucks.

Ugh if a Honda sits at the back of the screen and headbutts me there isn't anything I can do, I just don't have the reaction speed
It's the only match I'm tempted to duck out of

It’s the Honda mini game. You have to either parry, DI or jump back over them until they get bored or start to respect you then the match can actually start.
Then you just have to pass the butt slam mini game.
