The problem with 3S are the poorly designed characters, like twelve, sean, q, etc. that leads to 9-1 match ups like chun vs sean, and in some degree the parry system. To me, is one of the most broken SF in terms of characters, with hard counters and almost unwinnable match ups (if you hate Yun in AE, oh god you will see his true colors in 3S), and the parry isn't that hard to do, i played 3S just a couple of weeks and i was able to parry all of the ibuki SA (the knife one), i got the video of that

Take ST for example, it has one of the hardest execution in the series, but its pretty balanced (except claw's wall dive hitbox and o.sagat uppercut damage), but everyone can play with every char and be capable of win, not everyone is a tier whore like 3S (Yun, Chun and Ken all day erry day) and thats why i love it.

3S is pretty good i don't deny it, but i prefeer ST, even SBO still support ST and 3S not.

Parrying Ibuki SA1 requires nothing but you mashing toward on the joystick as fast as you can. It is literally one of the easiest things to parry in the game.

Also, SBO not having 3s this year has less to do with the quality of the game and more to do with Enterbrain bleeding cash. SBO went from 12 games over 3 days last year to 4 games on 1 day this year. It is a shell of what it once was.

Yeah i said that, its easy to do, just need some rythm like someone said before. The second time i tried to parry it, i did like you said mash the stick towards, but i was unable to parry it all, just like half of it.

For hard games and challenges, play the SF2 series. ST is literally the BW of the SF saga.

So i was looking up old japanese vids to watch and i found this:

There was a part where it shows him doing a parry into 720 with ONE FUCKING HAND, and no, he didn't buffer a 360 in before the parry.

The gigas read he made in this video are so scary :O

Hayao, why are you so gdlk?

The top Japanese players for the uncommon characters are so fun to watch in this game; you can really see the huge amount of skill they've acquired on display when you see them destroying other top players as well.

Considering how good MVO was at SF3, I'm kinda surprised he isn't better at SF4 yet

I still don't have any 3s practice partners. Laddering is fun but I'd really like if someone from TL wanted to run some sets!
