Okay, kids are asleep, PlayStation is on an Ethernet cable, pretty much good to play whenever 👍

Be on in just a minute, I'm having some technical issues. If you wanna get started and send me an invite, go ahead.

 

EDIT: ok i'm ready

REticently, you don't want to hang back when you have POW, if anything that just squanders your damage potential.

Does he hit high and low on the bouncing attack?

I'm not sure tbh. I wouldn't think so but I don't know much about tha tmove

I kind of feel that Earthquake does a little much of guard damage thanks to his multi hit attacks, but at this late stage o the game, it is what it is

He is truly a menace if you plan to turtle against him.

I don't know how good he is tierlist wise but he has a bit of sauce and he's fun I think. I honestly have a love/hate relationship with Amakusa in this game, so it's nice to have another character that does a similar thing in some ways.

The match ups in this game are STILL more interesting than almost every game that's come out since, lol

Yeah agreed. It has a similar thing that SF2 has where there isn't a lot of extra shit baked into the game beyond the characters' movesets and that really appeals to me

Don't forget that Wan get a command grab when unarmed 

I don't know what I'm doing with him, I didn't even know he had one lol

TBH, while I love the game, I can't cosign the sentiment, since there have been a lot of games that have come out that I feel have very interesting matchups and gameplay 🙂

Which games would you say? Would be interesting to have more good matchup based games,

I got to play in an online 5 Special tournament yesterday, the first I think I've done since 2018 and went 2-2 which isn't bad considering I've only really been back playing the game for about a week now.

 

If anyone plays or wants to even learn the game, I say let's give it a go. I've decided to learn Ukyo, so I'm in noob territory again. I actually started out as an Ukyo "main" when I first started playing (and didn't know what I was doing lol) but gravitated to Amakusa for whatever reason. a

I came back deciding to play Kazuki since I play him in 2019 but he's different 5Sp and not as much fun as Ukyo is.

 

Either way, we should get another lobby going sometime soon.
