Have you tried getting down her splash or boot loop yet?
Nope =/. With a little more training mode time today, my record in the corner (starting from cr.B) is 14 hits using 2 homing bars and her rocket toss. It's essentially two repetitions of her midscreen combo, which I can do somewhat reliably now.
For anyone who wants to see what this combo looks like, see the match video in the spoiler tag below. I wrote out the combo in 3s-ish notation so that everyone can read it. It's almost the same as the combo I've learned to do.
One aspect of these combos that I find really tricky is the timing between the different inputs. Some of them are "rapid-fire", like Ken's close strong xx close fierce chain, while others need tiny pauses in between, like Ken's cr.short xx cr.jap xx cr.short chain. Example: for the combo below, the first 3 inputs (A, up, A) need slight delays between them, but the C has to be done asap after the second A. Then you need to wait for a sec (because j.C has a long start-up), then you need to do the homing cancel and splash asap or else the opponent can recover, but if you try to homing cancel too early it won't work. And that's just the first 4 hits!
In other words, the combos are a lot more complicated and detailed than they look x_x. + Show Spoiler +
At 2:18, metal slime does the following combo: j.A xx jump cancel, j.A xx j.C xx fwd homing cancel, splash (down C in air), cr.B xx rocket toss, cr.A xx B xx C xx fwd homing cancel, A, j.A xx jump cancel, j.C (at which point Saki gets KO'd)
In my case, I use a worse follow-up to the rocket toss (just C instead of cr.A xx B xx C). So that'll be something for me to learn next time, in addition to the boot loop.
Also, at 3:01, he goes into the boot loop in the corner.

You're welcome. Glad you liked them . Also, happy birthday.
PS: Arcana Heart is really addicting. I actually like it more than 3s at the moment ^_^;; (partly because I still suck at hit-confirming, and partly because I dislike playing vs Ken and especially vs Chun Li =/).
Thanks I really want to play Arcana Heart it looks really awesome and as much as i enjoy SF3S, it's getting a bit boring (seeing is how i don't play it online with Mame ), do you have to order the game from over seas? Because I can't find a copy in our store or our database?
Phew, what a crazy day today: I played about 7 hours of 3s with 3 other people, and we recorded most of the matches with a webcam. I don't know when I'll be able to get any of the vids, but I'm planning on sharing some of the better/funnier games here. Might have to wait until next year for all I know, though :S.
I'm so disappointed in myself, though: in the final game, I was about to beat my friend Yang in Ken vs Ken for the first time ever. But I fscked up chipping him to death, and when he parried my last attack, I was so shocked that I forgot I could cancel it into a shoryuken (which would've won me the match) (no # of sad faces can express my agony ).
On the plus side, by the end of the day I'd finally learned how to block most leap attacks on reaction, and how to block attacks and tech throws more solidly while cornered. So at least I levelled up, and doubly-so with my Ken.
Kingkosi: you have to either import Arcana Heart from Japan, or else acquire it by less-than-legal means. You won't find it for sale anywhere here, aside from people and businesses offering to import it for you.

You got a youtube account? If not send the raw files to me and I can compress them and host em with my account.

It's okay: I am Youtube-equipped . But my friend has left Waterloo for the holidays, so I probably won't get the files for a while.
On a side note, I'm pretty sure they're already compressed because he said the ~6 hours of videos took up only 2.4 GB. If not, as long as they're .avi I can compress them myself with VirtualDub and XviD. Thanks for your offer, though .

Street Fighter III 3rd Strike
Having made her peace, she continued her work as a police officer, and retired from mainstream street fighting to teach young children martial arts after taking down Shadoloo for good. Urien kidnapped a young girl for his scientific projects and Chun-Li manages to catch up to him.
Well I'm going to browse around Ebay to get a copy of Arcana Hearts, but in the mean time, does anyone own Street Fighter Anniversary Collection for xbox? It's backward compatible on the 360 and i was wondering if anyone played on Xbox Live?
The bad news is, most of my matches that night were terrible, including all 3 that are up so far T_T. But, if I'm going to show off my best games later, then I guess it's only fair for people to see my worst games =/. (bye-bye, e-penis...)
My opponents played very well and very consistently, to the point where if I wasn't playing at the top of my game then I would end up losing horribly to them (which is what happened most of the time).
Until the very end, I was having a lot of trouble doing QCFx2 on the left side of the screen (basically a 1% success ratio). I started calling it "the bad side" and referring to the right side as "the good side" =P.
I just hope he doesn't upload the string of videos where I was getting extremely pissed off at all the mistakes I was making, and ended up shouting "FUCK" loudly whenever I got hit <_<;;;; .
Note that these 2 vids are not really 10 minutes long, rather they say they did some thing to trick youtube thinking that its 10 mins long just for the better quality, I'm not really knowledgeable on that so don't take my word for it. But both vids are just less than a minute long.
maeda? IIRC They said Keeper-jin was like kara-ing the far s.fp so that the c.mk would connect then re-kara-ing, But please, don't take my word for it T_T Try as I might I really can't play Yun worth shit and sadly can't play 3s well (yet T_T I need comp) Compared to marvel.

Hey, if you find a good deal on Arcana Heart, let me know too .

well i meant uploading the video like that but the sf3 stuff was sick too
Close finish Arcana Heart match. I suggest hiding the video progress bar (e.g. by making your browser window smaller) so that you don't know when it ends.
Haji Title: 馬超 vs 白アラン English Title: Ma Chao (Gier Yoriko) vs Alan White (Lightning Saki)
Edit: here's another nail-biter from the same 3v3 tournament.
Ma Chao (Gier Yoriko) vs decoy (Stone Mei Feng)
By the way, Yoriko is considered somewhat low-tier because her damage output from combos is relatively low, whereas Mei Feng has no shortage of combo damage.
EPT
