Smug could use a little help in mannerism. He appeared so nervous and shy, looking down with his hands in his pockets, etc. You have to keep your head up high and speak with decisiveness.

If you didn't pay I don't think you;ll have access to them.

Am I the only one seeing a little of Sako in Miyamoto? Must be his illegitimate son.

3S, GG, MVC2 and CVS2 were why I discovered KOF and VF, especially since the former games people kept trying to shove them down my throat.

 

[enzo_gt]

Isn't it kinda hard to say there's a SF lineage? I mean, ST, 3S, and SF4 are all super different games. Hell, within a given series you have massive differences (alpha 2 vs alpha 3).

I think there is if you count the saving/focus attack being born out of the parry. I mean, if you tweak one tiny thing in a fighting game the combat feels completely different, so even though there are drastic changes there is some refinement or shifts in balance to different aspects of gameplay that root back in SFII or even SF really.

SFV's changes are looking just as, if not more drastic than its predecessors.

I swear you only say crap like this on here to troll me and Gods Beard.

 

[Professor Beef]

I swear you only say crap like this on here to troll me and Gods Beard.

No, I say it because I genuinely don't like Godhand. It's fun, but I don't think it's a good game in the slightest. And that's ok! People have differing opinions.

 

[NEO0MJ]

I have yet to play God Hand. I wish Capcom would remaster it already.

 

[N4Us]

Apparently Xrd broke 100 preregs at NWM and third highest behind Ultra and Melee. Good stuff

 

[pixelish]

topanga's starting soon

[Thomasorus]

11am here. Now you learn how it feels to stay up until 8am to watch EVO finals.

 

[KidA Seven]

Is Xiaohai going to go 0-5?

 

[Xtyle]

4:24am
I am here for the DAIGOAT!

 

[Xtyle]

Is Xiaohai going to go 0-5?

he's already gotten 2

oh god every Xiao Hai match is hard to watch

 

[KidA Seven]

he's already gotten 2

oh god every Xiao Hai match is hard to watch

I meant 5 losses overall. He's currently 0-4.

 

[Widdly Scuds]

im upset that poongko is wearing the same shirt from yesterday. i bet it smells.

poor xiao hai

 

[RedEther]

Will Xiaohai get a win at this weekend lol

 

[pixelish]

poongko ended the match with a perfect. 5-3

 

[tabs2002]

I hope next time they invite Dakou or Gamerbee

 

[Xtyle]

wtf Xiao Hai keeps doing those single light hits

 

[KidA Seven]

This Luffy Bonchan match is intense as always.

 

[crash-14]

Free time ended....

 

[pixelish]

[Xtyle]

Killer Instinct is really it's own thing. The neutral game is very similar to Street Fighter, but the combo system is what differs KI from all other fighting games on the market. It definitely has it's own technicalities.

KI player Infil made a KI guide for those who are going into it as Street Fighter players. I'd give it a read, it's worth your time: http://ki.infil.net/

smug's playing really clean right now. 1-0

edit: smug showing his lack of matchup knowledge as he's getting hit by ambiguous gen setups. 2-1 xian

edit2: wow! xian was unable to close the game out as smug made a comeback with a magic pixel. 3-2 smug

edit3: each round has been pretty close as xian and smug won rounds with ~10% health left. 4-3 smug

edit4: xian took game 8 convincingly. is smug gonna choke? 4-4

edit5: with about 15% health left, xian u2'd dudley's jump-in and it was all downhill from there. 5-4 xian

 

[DryEyeRelief]

wow i thought xian had this in the bag. completely different than TFC



it's easier to see smug get blown up than for him to lose close sets like that.

 

[CountBlack]

damn smug was close

 

[Lulubop]

If I pay for a days pass, can I watch the previous days videos? How do I pay for this, it's too hard =(.

Aww Smug lost again, nevermind.

 

[crash-14]

how is smug doing compared to pr rog?

 

[Xtyle]

good fight but Smug screwed in the last game as Xian did more FADC.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

how is smug doing compared to pr rog?

I think rog went 1 -6 last year, so smug is already there by winning one set.

 

[Xtyle]

I think you can only watch videos for the days you pay for.

today's lineup is definitely worth the money.

 

[Lulubop]

Meh, Smug got no chance now though it was certainly slim before.

Xian has a really good chance though, hoping he takes it.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Meh, Smug got no chance now though it was certainly slim before.

on the bright side, with that win, Xian has a shot at winning. If he had lost, daigo probably would be sealed at first place.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

4 -1 momochi. he definitely knows daigo

 

[KidA Seven]

4 -1 momochi. he definitely knows daigo

As expected. He's been Daigo's demon the past couple of years even if Daigo did better in the same tournament.

 

[Xtyle]

ouch

 

[DryEyeRelief]

5 -1 momochi. Momo had complete control of the mid range and was driving the pace of the entire set. daigo never got an opportunity to start anything.
