He does have a point with the reputation thing but the 10k seems like an easy way to get a "no" response. Unless they are people who think 10k is nothing.

Normally I don't like Claw or two non-fireball char matchups in ST (or Boxer for that matter), but...
+ Show Spoiler [ST match, kouhatsu] +

So I made a post on SRK talking about the upcoming Daemon Bride's game mechanics. Daemon Bride is Examu's new 2D fighter: it's basically Arcana Heart minus the Arcanas and homing bars, but with some new metres added.

Here are some low-quality Daemon Bride loketest matches:

And here's my SRK post:

For those who don't want to bother reading it, some interesting things to note about the Engage metre (the heart with a number inside, beside your character portrait):
- it fills as you take damage, like a revenge gauge, but it also carries over to the next round
- it also increases by 1 level when you lose a round
- the higher it is, the more powerful your special Bride attacks become (afaict)
- at MAX, it can be used to burst and, apparently, to do some kind of "ultra" when you have full super metre as well

So basically, it's a really useful metre.

Unfortunately, it also encourages people to win by timeout. After all, why finish off an opponent, thereby giving them more Engage metre, when you can just run away and win by timeout instead? Furthermore, if you happen to take damage while running away, that's even better because it gives you more Engage!

Can you imagine Justin Wong playing this game? He clearly doesn't mind running down the clock when it's strategically optimal, and in this game it's going to be optimal whenever you have a big lead.

it's coming to the states but it's a fucking terrible game and you shouldn't play it!

also it's in SBO this year (over MBAA, sad life;; ). Here are the current lineups

A-1 Block - Udakarasu (Karas/Ryu)

B-1 Block -
B-2 Block -
B-3 Block - Fumifumi (Megaman/Roll)
B-4 Block - Pochi (Jun/Ryu)
B-5 Block - Kumo Soto Kagami (Yatterman-1/Karas)
B-6 Block -
B-7 Block -
B-8 Block -
B-9 Block -
B-10 Block - Tokino Tobira (Gold Lightan)
B-11 Block - Hachiman no Koutaishi (PTX)
B-12 Block - Kaiten ou (Ken/Megaman)
B-13 Block - Ao@BT (Doronjo/Ryu)
B-14 Block - Yuuchan (Ken/Chun Li)

C-1 Block - Kaiten ousama (Ken/Karas)
C-2 Block -
C-3 Block -
C-4 Block - Jaian (Chun Li/Ryu)
C-5 Block - Kenchin (Karas/Yatterman-1)
C-6 Block - G.X (Casshern/Roll)

D-1 Block -
D-2 Block - Nekonohi (Ken/Tekkaman)
D-3 Block - GO1 (Karas/Ryu)
D-4 Block - Nichiyou ge ma (Casshern/Tekkaman)
D-5 Block -
D-6 Block -
D-7 Block -

F-1 Block -

the only thing I like about TvC is Casshern, so I'm glad there's some of them in there~
also note the presence of Karas (who is a very silly character).

I like to think of TvC as a less broken and less crazy MvC2.

One game has "you can air block only once" leading to unblockables and team-rapes. It has Sentinel's cr.HP which has attack frames that don't cause your character to block, a concept I've never even heard of before. It has double-snap assist infinites. It has Magburrito. It has Iron "one hit and your team is dead" Man. It has Capitalist Communist and his invincible, top-to-bottom, godlike assist. And so on.

The other game has combos that change depending on the aspect ratio. It has combos and infinites off of bursts. It has Kar-fucking-ass. And so on.

I dunno, I think TvC is pretty broke, but MvC2 is on a whole 'nother level.

I believe most "serious" Tohou players still stick to IaMP.

I don't play it, but I was just watching this Youtube tutorial for the original Immaterial and Missing Power yesterday

I saw the video's length and said "I'll just watch the first minute or so," but then the video turned out to be really well made so I wound up watching the whole thing. It had a thoroughly educational discussion of all the technical mechanics of the game, in good synchronization with the gameplay footage.
