Elphelt got a collar

While overall similair her entire outfit was changed. Look at the two side by side and you'll notice stuff like the exposed legs, different cuffs for her hands, new crown, and other small details.

 
High level A.B.A play is always fun to see. I remember seeing some at a Ga Tech meetup and it was a blast.
I didn't know what to expect at all but it was certainly interesting.
This is a situation I find myself in far often then I would prefer, particularly in situations where landing a Buster would win me the round. Against dizzy opponents. :[

Started giving up on busting them and do something else.
 
Not sure how I feel about the new look. Then again, I was half expecting crazy "don't give a fuck/bout that life" prison stripes soooo... :lol
 
Pretty sure he was joking

You don't say?

Also ABBA story mode is a weird but still classic. She is a kind of zombie/frankenstein creature that suffered from loneliness dur to awakening and being left alone in the lab. She found the key in the basement of the manor where she lives and for a long time the key was the only living creature she knew. She goes out to find a way to transform the key to a human form as Paracelsus (the key) was supposed to be human at first or something like that. In the AC+ story mode she manages to do it and they live together.
 
What is yours?

3 bar, 3-4 delay non fluctuating max. Some 2 bars as long as they don't have packet loss.

Was just in a lobby playing a pleasant 2 delay match with a millia, a 0 bar sin wanted next.
Needless to say I dropped the fuck out and went to another cab, the 3 bar millia obliged him.

I mean, why would you even queue up with someone you're a 0 bar to.

May not have been 0 bar to them.
 
Sort of depressing to see variable input lag, showing you the delay changing in real time while you're playing, giving you instant feedback about why the online feels like shit, in 2015. Like you're supposed to see the numbers change and think oh ok I guess I'll change my timing now. What year did GGPO launch again?
 
You mean blocking Millia, right?

Millia is much easier to block when she can't properly do her pressure.

I mean yeah you're taking a 50/50 at 4 delay but at the end of the day you're still guessing the initial block 50/50.

And then the millia fucks up her 2nd 50/50 thanks to delay and we out of there \o/

Blocking Millia isn't very different with lag, you'd be blocking more by "reads" than reactions. If she can't get her corner carry and tighten up her oki set-ups due to lag though, she's just a mobile character with incredibly low damage, low health and shitty normals.
 
You mean all my matches with you were bad :O
We did need few matches before getting used to the lag, which was ~5 frames I believe. But yea, lots of dropped combos and s-disc > rrc for corner carry, you were respecting the fraud oki way too much though. :D

I also switched from Millia because adjusting to the lag meant missing with muscle memory.
 
I can emphasise with Milia players finding lag hard to work with. Rufus online in SF4 is really hard due to the lag screwing up mixups (and Rufus not having a fallback game like Akuma, Cammy and other rushdown characters do).

Rufus online seems like it would be easy af. Harder to AA safe divekicks all day

I'm too defensive a player usually. Also, I can't believe how bad it is, even though we live barely an hour apart.
 
I kinda want to see Jam in there, but honestly getting to mess with Jack-o is probably enough for me to get the game. She seems suuuper interesting (and also hawt).

I find her neutral impossible to play correctly online.
 
I'm planing to do some travelling next year, EVO is already a certainty, and looks like now I have a good reason to go to Combo Breaker
Protip: Lou Malnati's. Giordano's is what the tourists rave about, but it is mediocre.

You people are just distracted by the pretty character graphics to pay attention. This stage https://youtu.be/KPap4eFM_Cg?t=1m8s is just as good, crazy, metal, whatever other 90s adjective you want to use.
It's one of the better stages, but not as cool.
 
I wonder if it got a hardware upgrade. Prolly means no PS3 port this time around.

Dunno- Xrd accomplishes so much through art style rather than horsepower brute force methods that it's anyone's guess. If they're putting it out on the same nesica machines though, there's no reason why they couldn't port it to ps3 as well.
 
Yeah I am a bit of a germaphobe so I wouldn't like a duded shirt on me.

You would be coming in contact with a lot of people's shirts in the crowded conditions at EVO. Not to mention shaking a lot of hands (germ city!). One shirt is barely going to move the needle.

If some guy put his shirt on me out of the blue, I could understand being a little put out, but if I'm _Poongko_, who regularly plays to the crowd with the shirt stuff, surely I have to understand Onisan is just engaging in some theatrics and not actually trying to disrespect me.
 
Yeah I know the germ thing is mostly me but its the same feeling as my friend if he got his shoes stepped on, even accidentally. I had to peel him away from a younger kid who walked backwards on his kicks. Its more a personal space sphere that gets penetrated that bothers me. To extend one's hand is to invite someone to their space as a sign of respect.

I know Onisan meant well and trying to bring the hype.

Also, I hate wrestling almost as much as I hate Anime. Save us Viscant!
