freelander: I think combos prorate normally in Vermillion mode. Also, everyone's 5V is an overhead, yes.
Nytefish: cool, I never knew about that combo before. :O It looks like it'll work better for midscreen to corner in particular: the 2V j.V loop at midscreen works on Virginia but not on Silvio or Tamara.
Here's a good AH2 match we played 2 weeks ago: myself (Time Nazuna) vs Wilson (Wind Dorothy)
Yeah it's ridiculous that you can change the time limit on ranked matches (among other things).
But we have to admit, the scrub still won. And since he's a scrub, it means DSP has only himself to blame for losing. Especially after that Ultra at the end: I saw that coming 2 days ago.

It's funny and sad how Carl is still the 3rd or 4th worst character, even with that loop.
I wonder if Arcsys knew about it beforehand, which would explain why Carl is so bad otherwise. I mean, they should have seen it coming when they gave the doll a move that is apparently completely air-unblockable.
hate to rain on the party swami but DSP won evo 2k6 ST, and probably more events. the guy is ACTUALLY good. <3 DSP, his vids on youtube are soooo fucking funny.

Yea, ive watched a ton of his videos and they are pretty good and funny as well. He's actually right too, lots of people do that run away hadou, random uppercut shit. It's just funny how he doesn't adjust his play properly versus the strategy. Like where are the wakeup meaties and shit.

uhhh last time i remembered tokido won st in evo06 i think. i never watched dsp play ST but if hes even half as good as winning other events he shouldn't b that bad in sf4 imo. i mean hitting rufus's ultras are dirt easy tbh
I don't see why people were so confused by the new Arcadia BR tier list. It makes sense for the most part, especially if the rumored buffs to DJ were actually in the update. It's the top 10 characters in a game of like 40 characters, it's not like Heihachi/Kaz/whoever people feel got "left out" are automatically bottom tier just 'cuz they aren't top 10. Only thing I have a "problem" with is capos in top 10, and that's mostly 'cuz I don't know what their changes are anyways. They seem better in BR so who knows.
I mean, top 5 makes sense; Steve is stupid good at everything except maybe block punishment and setting up oki, Law and Lili have good mixups/pokes and big damage, Bob is safe and has big damage. Lars has good pokes and has big damage but weaker oki than the guys up there (well maybe about as good as Steve). Bruce and Julia have obscene wall carry (and Julia gets big juggles off like everything) and are just solid overall. Dunno what puts DJ above the other Mishimas other than maybe his wall carry, though he's a Mishima so of course he's going to be up there (Hei/Kaz are probably top 15). Dunno about the capos but they have some new pokes/mixups and B! gives them pretty good damage. Bryan has strong mids as always, ridiculous wall carry, pretty good damage, a retarded wall game, and taunt. So it's like... don't see a problem with these guys being top 10. Could definitely see some other characters up there instead (maybe Heihachi instead of capos?) but it's not a huge deal.
Bill: I don't think Nirvana clap is air-unblockable, which wouldn't even be necessary for the setup to work as it is either getting combo'd into or is punishing recovery from a throw break.
Hey does anyone know if bestbuy carries any of the sticks and/or adapters for ps2/ps3/xbox arcade? I've had this 25$ gift card from there since xmas and the store blows so its worthless to me.

That wasn't the point though man. Obviously he's good and much better than me for sure. It's just so disappointing when someone with obvious skills does nothing but make excuses 24/7. It is so unprofessional. Idra's BM is cute, DSP's BM is just plain obnoxious. And like many have said, it's stupid how he doesn't just adapt to the things he complains about.
