I'll ask him tomorrow if he's going again this year. I know Momi, MBR and Emersion are going to CEO next week. | ||

There seem to be no beginners and I start to get kicked from the lobbies pretty fast due to it not being fun for my opponents to play against me so I've trouble actually being able to play for any significant amount of time. Am I just too late? I started last summer and pretty much just grinded out ranked matches. You'll get a decent handful where your opponent is clearly better, but you can find others that are new as well. Otherwise, ask around on here or the TL SF4 Steam group for other new players, and practice through other methods like training mode and such (though basic things such as defense and punishing are way way way more important than combos/execution when you're new). | ||

I second the whole punish thing. Even if its just a throw you want to make sure you get that free damage on them when they whiff or use something really unsafe. (Think missing/blocking their shoryuken) | ||

"Hey, you have been searching for 5 seconds, do you want to search again?". WHY CANT YOU JUST FUCKING SEARCH CONTINUOUSLY UNTIL YOU FIND ME A FUCKING GAME?! How can that not has been patched in yet? Never use quick match. Go to ranked -> custom and set it to the appropriate settings (3 rounds, 99 sec, and probably "Same Skilled"). Then find folks with green bars, or yellow if you find you can stand it. If you're using quick match you're gonna have a bad time. Someone should have mentioned that sorry D; Edit: you may (especially depending on the time of day) have long bouts of re-searching until you find someone, but it's more reliable to find people with a decent connection, and similar skilled (for the most part...). Alternatively you can do the same thing for Endless and find room names that match your level (low PP rooms). ALTERNATIVELY if searching isn't working, you can host a ranked/endless yourself, and wait for folks. Creating a ranked yourself generally fills up fairly quick, but I've found in my experience that the skill level of the opponent can vary extremely drastically, so do so at your own risk. Amusing anecdote for others: In the first month or two I played the game, I hosted a ranked and played against Andy Liu NYC (Autodemon). That was fun haha. | ||

On a similar note, check this out as well http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL744144A71C67D816 Tutorial series by Vesper. Pretty solid. And you can take it step by step, so if it starts to get into more advanced things (such as option selects and stuff) that you don't really want/need yet while you're still a beginner, you can just stop watching at that point and come back to it a week/month later! | ||

It's a shame people hate her and she will get hammered by the patch because I really like her playstyle and she's, well, quite easy to learn. Her moves and general strategy is somewhat close to what I've learned with Makoto. ( with everything being better ) | ||

Now her normals are just too good all around and together with her sick setups she has become safe enough that games often become onesided and boring. | ||

I just never really liked street fighter 3 it had weird characters and the backgrounds/music was just not that memorable. My favorite fighting game of all time will always be super turbo. And I just want to say that if this is the real Snake Eyez that Fakesteve is no longer the best player on TL. | ||

I am pretty much retired but I am always up to play some Super Turbo, Third Strike, and maybe some CvS2. Oh, and Eternal Fighter Zero =) | ||
