It's the A button

Is it specifically 5A because I’m pretty sure I tried 2A and it didn’t work?

 

That said, I was mashing buttons for the few seconds I had the time to, so  I was possibly already in some recovery frames or something

[DoctaMario]

Ask me how it feels to end that win streak @Hecatom 😂

[Mattatsu]

BRB

[DoctaMario]

Oof, I hoped you wouldn't issen my jump like that Hecatom 😂 Hype match!

[DoctaMario]

Nice one Reticently!

[Reticently]

Gah, Cham's ex fireball has the highest priority in the game and it still can't touch Amakusa's moon of flaming death thing, lol

[Hecatom]

I don't remember shit about Charlotte 🤣

That's move is about the only thing I have that works against that boomerang thing lol!

 

Was gonna say, Cham's WFT would probably work well as an anti air if you're gonna throw it out there raw.

Mash A and win. That's all you need to know 😂

I can't remember, does Haoh's jug reflect fireballs?

Yes it does in addition to just being a nice move in general. The timing can be tough, but if you can get it, it's a nice thing for him to have in his kit.

Yeah, the timing is weird, at least for me. I keep trying but keep getting blown up, literally.

[Reticently]

How to tell if it's a Hecatom character:

 

Does she have multiple weapons and big tits?

[Hecatom]

2 times i pressed A+D for a throw and 2 times i just did a poke.

I was almost sure that was the combination for it 🤔

I don't know but I always thought it was hilarious that a guy that size was a "ninja" lol

[DoctaMario]

EQ's hilarious super special move and the fact that he sounds like Lemmy from Motorhead make me kind of want to play him as a pocket character lol

[Mattatsu]

I’m going to play one more game then call it a night.

Sounds like a plan. GGs boys, I think the lobbies we have are some of the most enjoyment I get out of this game.

 

EDIT: I'm just glad we got to see Iroha's SSM before the end of the night lol

Yeah, I really like these lobbies we do. I have lots of fun everytime. We say a lot but we should actually do this more often

 

i do need to lab a bit more though and I should probably try out another character for once lol

"Violence is not the answer"

Says it after murdering someone 🤣

[Reticently]

Okay I should call it a night too.

 

Wouldn't mind doing this again in a week or two!

[Hecatom]

I am always down to play on the weekends.

I usually don't go out, so most of the time I am available for some matches

[Mattatsu]

GGs all, and have a good night guys! Till next time!

[Mattatsu]

Just found out I can’t leave the room without disbanding it… that’s kinda wack

Agreed. I actually found that there's an Ethernet port right behind our living room TV I didn't know about so I'm gonna leave my PS4 there and I'll be ready anytime you guys want to, ahem, CROSS SWORDS

[Hecatom]

The fact that I don't play this game more often is a crime, specially when I have best girl Iroha on it.

 

 

 

BTW, I see that the collection is at 9.99 on the store.

I already have it on the Epic store, but I think I will double dip on it.

Man I wish the Neo Geo Collection would go on sale in the eShop. Think I might pull the trigger on it given that price though; it has rollback too.If you guys want to play some of the other games, might be a good time to snap up the neo Geo collection if it's that cheap, or at least the Code Mystics version of 5 Special.

I’m pretty sure I have this on PS4/5. I randomly saw it the other day and was shocked as I don’t remember buying or playing it lol

It's great. Best netcode I've ever played on and, well, it's 5 Special

[DoctaMario]

You guys want to do another lobby Friday or Saturday night this weekend?

[Reticently]

Yeah, I'd be up for that.

[Mattatsu]

I should be okay for this weekend as well

Got a preference for which night?

 

What about you @Hecatom?

Right now I should be okay for either. My starting time is up in the air right now though, but 9pm et should work for both nights.

[Reticently]

Saturday is a tiny bit better for me, but not to the point where it really makes a difference.

Speaking of not sucking, after our session I remembered that I can cancel my backdash with any air special move like I do with my 6K with Iroha 👀

 

Is funny how Iroha is both a really easy character to learn, but has those out of the box way of playing with her special moves, lol

She is a different kind of character. I may have to mess with her a bit to get a better idea of what she's capable of. You really had me for a loop with some of those pinwheel moves and that one combo you did that ended in the spinning top move. That combo was ridiculously damaging.

What is funny is that I was remembering them as the matches were going.

And after that I remember her jump in bnb when landing an air H attack, that is going into M, then the 214H, I kept missing because I was trying to use 2H

 

She also can use her 66 dash to "jump" over grounded projectiles.

Too bad that Amakusa doesn't have those kind of projectiles, lol.

Amak's fireballs eat up a lot of space thankfully. His fireball game is probably better than it's ever been in this game, although I would trade it in a heartbeat to have his teleport be able to phase through everything like it can in SS4 & 5Sp.

My wife’s friend is in town and she’s staying over tomorrow night. I likely won’t be able to start at 8:30, but I should be able to hop on  sometime after.
