[quote name='Mr. Beef']Alright, cool. I need Abel practice. :([/QUOTE]

Wow, it must have been a REALLY long time since we played last because I dropped Abel almost completely when Super came out to focus on Seth.

I play Seth/Yun/Ken now.

[quote name='asianxcore']Yo Beef, you going to be on PSN at all today? If so what time?[/QUOTE]
You still on now? If so, we can play.

In unrelated news, I got Steam because of free TF2. Hope it doesn't stink.

Yea, I'm on PSN right now. I'll send you a game invite.
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']Seth still bodies me. :lol:[/QUOTE]

That matchup is still hard, but if you stop jumping it makes it harder for Seth to get those free DPs.

GG's btw. If I knew that Hawk was your main, I would have not jumped on PSN. Mostly because I think playing against Gief/Hawk is boring. One of my friends I play with locally mains Gief and we rarely play now because how boring/lame the matchups are :)

I would suggest just mixing up how you approach. I know Hawk only has so many options but I noticed:

-Stop jumping so much! Free DP for characters with a good one (Seth, Akuma)
-You tend to go for the same block string to poke, but I think after the 2nd/3rd hit there is a gap where I can DP.
-Do you buffer SPD's off jump? Watch out for that.
-Watch out for those Dash SPD's. The only reason why I hit that U1 with Yun getting your dash is because I recognized the setup.

We'll have to play more, when I'm back in the mood to play a lame matchup/s :)

Hahaha, I'll keep all that in mind. There were a couple of times when I lost a round to your Yun that I slapped myself. It's funny that so many people complain about Yun, but he's actually one of Hawk's best matchups now. Divekicks can't be hit higher than his waist, otherwise it's a free 360. Palm gets beat clean by EX Dive or Spire. Shoulder tackle is a free Super on block, and all trades are in Hawk's favor thanks to the health difference. The only thing Yun has on him is Super, but even then the damage isn't a huge thing to worry about unless Yun is going for the kill.

My blockstring with Hawk is pretty much the only one he has, and you can easily DP out of it if I'm too slow, even on hit. I do need to work on my other setups, though. I actually was using dash-360 more often against you because you were just sitting there, and I felt the risk was worth the reward. Looks like I wasn't as right as I thought. :lol:

GGs all around. I would've used Ibuki or Oni, but I felt like I needed more Hawk practice instead.
 
Beef's post just taught me more than it should have about the yun/hawk match-up. Tell me how the dudley/hawk match-up goes now in AE.

It's not all that different, I guess. I never had a lot of experience against Dudley, other than the fact that I can't dive against him at all if he's got U1 stocked. I just play footsies and wait until I can get a knockdown.
 
I think what I've been hearing is that (obviously) some of Yun's hardest matchups are Gief, Hawk, Bison and Ken.

Also I was talking to FChamp yesterday at a session and he was (maybe jokingly) talking about learning T-Hawk just for the Twins haha

I like T.Hawk. :whistle2:( Just downloaded AE and I hear he has some buffs?? That's nice.

Actually I just started playing Street Fighter again, after playing tons of MK. That adjustment period is HARSH. Gotta just keep playing more of each so the switch becomes less disorienting. :)

I wanna branch out, maybe even start playing three fighting games at a time! I know that's not much of a stretch for most people in the FIGHTING GAME THREAD, but for me it's fun new territory. I've got my first single-player stick on the way (#6 in the queue at Arcade In A Box, can't waiiiiit) so I wanna up my game. I'm getting more into local competition and stuff!

After seeing what happened to his sim when daigo picked yun, combined with beef's lesson of twin rape, he was probably dead serious.

Well the fact that Julio also played Yun didn't help.

It would be a good idea, IMO. I think it was almost obvious from the start that Gief/Hawk would be hard matchups for the Twins.

With the way beef was talking, he makes it sound like hawk is godlike against them. :rofl:

I know there's some match-ups with dudley that I never wanted to fight and needed to pick up a secondary for.
 
Man, screw waiting, I'm double posting.

What is everybody's thoughts on AE so far? Like it? Love it? Hate it? Why? Who is your new main? Why did you choose them? etc. Anything you want to mention about it.

Love it. Hawk got no nerfs whatsoever and is apparently one of the best Twin counters in the game. Although it makes me look like a hipster since I can now say "I liked him before he became mainstream."

[quote name='Jimbo Slice']HeavyD has a hot sister

/facebookstalking[/QUOTE]

lol, Im used to that by now.



The worst though was all my girlfriends and/or friends who were girls who kept on talking about how my brother was hot. I was like bitch you better relax with that shit!
 
Poongko (Seth) beats Momochi (Yun) in GF of Shadowloo Showdown. He made Momochi look free. After Poongko won, he downed a whole can of redbull like Stone Cold, lol. Great tournament, great experience.
 
ATTN: Jim + HeavyD

My g/f and I booked our trip to Vegas for EVO + Drinking yesterday. D, I already have your number, Jim FB message me your number so I can add it to my phone for hangouts/casuals at EVO.

Fuuuuck, I just watched the replays in the archive and he made so many good reads. I admit it, even though I picked up Yun for the Dudley matches I don't like, I totally wanted Yun to lose.

Gonna try and save up money to go to EVO. Hopefully one of my friends is driving there, since I won't be aboe to save up enough otherwise.

You better go!

Also does anyone have a fix for the TE Cable Compartment Door being broken? I know it's pretty common, but mine finally snapped off yesterday (the tab)

:lol::lol::lol:
 
it's not about tagging along, it's about not going to work for 2 days!!

even if u dont like vegas, it's the lesser of 2 evils imo.

Im leaving early friday, comin back monday, if any1 local wants a ride hit me up.
 
[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Anyone have a PS3 TE I can use at Evo, saving me some loot? I'm sure I'll get bodied and won't have your stick tied up for long.[/QUOTE]

I will buy you some beers....

Nobody who plays on PS3 is going because they're all free, including me, otherwise I'd totally be a bro and would. :cool:

Jim,

If it's organized like it was last year, you'll have the stick/converter tied up for a while. A lot of my friends locally entered last year and complained that several hours went by where they weren'y being called for their next matches.

I really want to enter Marvel, but standing around for hours waiting for my next match (in Vegas no less) isn't enticing. Also the Bring Your Own Console Stations were kind of lame, because (most) people were bringing consoles just to play with the people they came with. Best of 35 sets :)

I'm still on the fence about bringing my Dual Mod. Mostly because I brought it last year and I didn't get any Casuals in anywhere.
 
I cant believe Akuma n Wolverine are best friends.

I still have a sealed pack of X-Men vs Street Fighter action figures that contains both fighters, indicating that they are clearly enemies.

where in the Marvel Capcom canon did this change?!?!

anyways, there's like a trillion ppl at Evo, ppl always would let u borrow a stick.

Word I will figure it out. I would just hate to not have something figured out and then have to depend on a random once I get there.

Also, you live in LA Jekki? I am visiting a friend in LA after Evo and was gonna fly from Vegas there, but if you are driving back I'd be more than happy to throw you some cash to hitch a ride..

(I feel like a damn bum with all these favors I've been asking lately haha)
 
Hahaha I will definitely be there, just trying to avoid having to buy yet another plane ticket (Philly to Phoenix to visit a friend beforehand, Phoenix to Vegas, Vegas to LA and then LA to Philly).
 
Just checked Greyhound prices, and holeeeee fuck are they expensive. Hopefully one of my other friends are driving there so i can get a ride, or my EVO plans are going to end before they begin.
