When you get some many buffs that a Mika fan artist draws you beating Mika....
 

 

That is a pretty good description of it yeah. 😁
Though with how it actually works out is I have to swat the mosquito 10ish times a round. 
 
The other thing I realized afterwards is that was the most FGs I've played in quite a long time. Both in terms of length of time and in terms of density of matches. 
 
Given the intensity of Xrd and how little muscle memory I have for the game I think that is the equivalent of deciding you want to start exercising and immediately jumping up and running a 5K. I'm surprised my brain didn't totally melt.

That has long been my biggest complaint as well. 
 
SFV's netcode hasn't even been consistent across it's entire lifespan. Mattatsu and I played against each other a bunch across multiple seasons and it seemed like every 6 months or so it the matches would run differently (and most frustratingly they were almost always degrading in quality). Same thing with sets with Akhos over the months. 
 
I deeply hope they get this shit sorted for SF6. SF and its players deserve better than this. 
 
Except the Urien players. Fuck them.
I feel like there would need to be a couple of steps before we got there. NRS has plenty of history with DC but it seems like a bit of a far ask for Marvel to want to get in on a Marvel vs DC right out of the gate.
 
What I *could* see is that Marvel for whatever reason looks at the consistent success NRS has had with their games in general and with DC (success in this case also equals units sold) and maybe comes to them for their next FG outing instead of Capcom. Slap a cinematic story mode on there, give Captain America some fucked up animations, and there you go. Wouldn't even need to make up an edgelord setting for everything to happen in: they already did the Ultimate universe.
 
Then in 5 years we get Ultimate Injustice: Marvel vs DC. And while the fighters may animate like two car sale tube men fighting each other, the effects and character models will be off the charts and the cinematic story mode will still be leagues better than any movie DC has put out sans Wonder Woman. It will go on to be the first game to sell 1 billion copies. Ed Boon retires to his sky palace.

W/L right now isn't super relevant though. What matters is what you're building in the matches. And in your case you have a good grasp on Millia's mobility, a solid start on her mix up game, and you're kind of getting the flow for Rev in general. A lot of our rounds went down to the last little smidge of time with both players having near no life. 😁
 
Johnny is a lot easier as a starter character IMO. Like he has a lot of technical stuff I could be doing but at base he has some really good buttons to work with and Mist Finer is something I can tack onto any string for more damage + whatever benefits I have from coins. So at this level where we're both kind of still flailing around I'm getting a lot more return on individual hits and exchanges than you are. The tradeoff is supposed to be when you can start running Millia's game she can make up the difference, and Johnny just kind of has to sit there and take it outside of prayer mashing, Dead Angle, Burst, or reversal super (none of which are sustainable options). There were definitely some rounds where you had me in the corner and gave me the work, which is how Millia wants that match up to go I think (probably every match up, really). 
 
It may or may not have come across in those games but I had to work a lot to try to keep you where I wanted you. There are so many ways to approach and you can't cover them all at the same time so a lot of it for me was learning what I could do and making educated guesses. I legit got a tension headache from those games. 😆 Had to go walk it off afterwards.
 
I still love Johnny. Actually learning how to play him would take a fair bit of work but it'd be worth it for what he can do, at least in Xrd. We'll see how he is in Strive when he inevitably shows up; my guess will be beastly.
 
Fun times, as always. This will be a fun thing to do while Strive is getting polished up and ready for the summer.

Acting like you didn’t win the majority of the time lol.
 
yeah, she’s fun, but I really need to optimize her. Dropped a lot of combos and setups and that’s a bit costly with her. her mobility is amazing though
 
Your Johnny had some dirt though and a lot of times I had no idea how to get in, or get out lol. It was a ton of fun tho

Based on some Ed Boon’s tweets lately, I am worried that NRS is working on a Marvel vs DC game.
 
and yes, I am worried. I love MK, but I don’t think NRS would be the best company for a Marvel game, gameplay and animation-wise

But what if Volt was Cipher all along, just his more relatable alter-ego? 🤣

Cammy: "Okay... @Phantom_Miria... What kind of animation *is* that?" 

*Cammy looks into other NRS games and their image files.* 
 
Cammy: "PARDON???" 
 

 
Cammy: "No, seriously. I don't even know if I should be laughing or losing my shit. Look at it." 
 

GGs man, was a lot of fun.
 
You were really shucking and jiving with Millia. It was all I could sometimes to keep up.
 
EDIT: It still cracks me up that we have generally solid connections in this game (that isn't even regarded as having good netcode for a delay based system) but SFV always turns into a teleport festival after like 2 games. 

K, ready whenever you are
 
edit: I can’t believe how much pop came out of the can, there was just a piddly drop left in it, and it sprayed a radius of like 8 ft

The epitome of trained martial arts is fence punching, didnt you know?

@GetTheTables and @KingTubb or anyone else, I decided to postpone my work until tomorrow, so if any of you want to play PS4 rev2 later this afternoon, let me know.

Why NRS animations are stellar! Where else do you find supposed Martial Arts Master who fight like they never threw a punch in their whole life.

No worries. I'm gonna need a few mins around 3 to feed cats FYI. They get unruly. 

Sorry that may have been my fault.
 
also, I should’ve set this to Rematch option. I thought Winner Stays On kept rematching until someone else joined the room, but I think I mixed that up with Samsho

@SkortI got a present for you. I can't draw anymore so this all I am capable of at the moment. Given who this is, I'd value your opinion. You don't have to dig into the technical stuff if you don't want. It's pretty damned long and if I have to look at another kanji I'm gonna jump off my second floor balcony 🤣 I tried something new with the appearance and I'd appreciate your input on that. Didn't want to just go with an existing look. Tried to do something that seemed be what she'd wear.
 

Thanks for this fam. I'm dying over here. Snake Eyez 's reaction isn't helping 🤣 🤣🤣
