I'll be the half-asian Canadian guy playing Arcana Heart all day. And some MBAA. On Sunday I should be wearing a Bison's Autoshop T-shirt to rep my local SSF4 venue, even though I have no plans to enter SSF4.  (Entering more tournies = less time for Arcana and Melty.)Edit: btw anotak, is SF4 remix still available to DL? Myself and some other MBAA players watched some videos of it last weekend and now we want to try it after NEC. | ||

 We should be arriving around noon on Saturday, while the other 4 Canadians (BB/GG/MB players) will be arriving Friday night.We don't really expect SF4 Remix to be balanced or anything. For comparison, we've been messing around in Fate: Unlimited Codes, so we're not really worried about broken stuff. DeuS wants us to start playing IaMP. Maybe I'll give in if he agrees to play Arcana. (... Yeah, we're pretty much the definition of poverty, now.) | ||

end of the team tournament was amazing. genius play from dieminion. I hope someone recorded that. sanford had a couple mental breakdowns there forgetting which ultra he had and doing the wrong motions, but he fixed it up for when it counted =) | ||

 Btw, Arturo was also in the ST and AH1 tournaments, so that might've accounted for some of the hold-up. | ||

GGPO is kinda annoying though. half the time I try to use it I get connection errors all over the place, and then on top of that 90% my matches are either me completely destroying someone who's nowhere close, or getting my ass handed to me on a platter by a player way out of my league. Really wish 3s online would actually happen soon, starting to doubt if it will even come out in 2011 =(( | ||

Anyone have any tips or advice for me? Playing 3s/sf4 on comp with xbox360 r2 arcade stick from madcatz. ps - how do you stuff wakeups in sf4? I was told you're supposed to hold the japanese sticks like a wine glass between your pinky and ring fingers. best 3s player I know swears by it at least, but I still hold it between ring & middle. probably just gonna take you 2-3 weeks to adjust if you're not already used to playing on stick in arcades =( for generic reversal wakeups in sf4, you gotta either safe jump (impossible on some chars), crossup on their wakeup so their dp goes the wrong way (basically do it late, not meaty), or vs some chars you can get away with fast normals (I think almost the entire cast can do meaty cr.lp on rog safely). Though really, you just gotta play real lame and block or some random scrub will get 50% on you with an ultra welcome back, btw =] | ||

(besides EX and special ofc) also what do these buttons on the top of the Stick do? There is a turbo button, an xbox button with 1,2,3,4 around it and lights, then there are toggles lock/unlock, and then 3 way toggle LS DP RS. What does all this crap do? and yea i hold it like that already. I just watched a video about stick holdings, and its just something like comparing hotkey setups in sc. Just do whatever is comfortable. | ||

The turbo lets you assign the buttons to be rapid-fire aka turbo...should be self-explanatory? The lock feature makes it so the buttons like the Xbox button, maybe start/select (I forget) don't actually do anything if you press them--I guess it's a feature for people that mash really wildly lol. The 3 way toggle switches the joystick between sending inputs for left analog stick (LS), D-Pad (DP), and right analog stick (RS). That one would actually be important to know. The thing about cr.lp (or cr.lk) was just to stop Balrog, because his wakeup reversal headbutt comes out really really slow. You're not going to stuff his EX headbutt that way--a light attack will just recover fast enough for you to block before he actually hits you. Against a lot of characters with traditional SRK moves that come out much faster, you just need to walk up, bait it, and block on their wakeup. Lame, yes. As Trumpet says, with good timing, you can do a late crossup as well. If they're never throwing out wakeup SRKs, then you can go back to doing something more aggressive on their wakeup. | ||
