The weird ethnic bickering from everybody needs to stop like RIGHT NOW.  Just drop it.

 

That being said, @DangerousJthat one comment about his family was pretty low.  You really need to apologize.  That crossed a line and I'm really not ok with stuff like that here.

I don't recall gootecks saying anything since his face was removed from pogchamp in January

From what I understand he hated that his face was used for that. 

 

 

Edit: damn seems like I missed a dustup in here. Guess that's what I get for not jumping on here at lunch 😆 Anyone want to give me a rundown of what I missed?

DangerousJ used the gootecks post to take a shot at Pethro and things quickly got personal.

I mean gootecks has lost the plot but I wouldn't want a dumb face I made once to be plastered all over stream chats for the best part of a decade either.

I would argue that the dumb face was far larger than gootecks. Unless someone is familiar with the FGC no one would know he is.

Arturo told me that everyone makes mistakes and I've learned from mine.  I told him briefly about the recent BFTG mishap but I didn't mention anything about the anti-Semitism because I don't want to make it seem like I'm using him as a venting board.  Besides if any of those nitwits bring that energy to Summer Jam I'll just reiterate they can kiss my Hebrew National behind and then go to Big E about it, and that'll be the swift end of any of that.

 

The only way I'm getting cancelled is if I'm in prison or if I'm dead.  No one is stopping me from reaching my potential except myself, and I've got my eye on the prize...so drop by tomorrow and let's watching some SFVCE before the new characters drop!

Fuudo with the family man power up is clearly OP.

How did Cody avoid chip KO here?

He did what  99% of the SF Cast is unable to do in the past  30 + years of Street Fighter. 

 

Stepped aside from the fireball  / blast / super / ultra.

 

 

Spoiler

It's just his v-skill 2 dodge thing.

The fact that Akuma's CA has rather slow startup, is basically just a fireball and doesn't make him fully invincible results in some cool interactions from time to time. I traded with it by using Poison EX overhead for a double KO in a game before, that was some epileptic stuff.

Yeah, I don't even play that much and I've gotten rage quits from Akuma's CA being easy mode to parry.

Man this Ed players isn't messing around, it looks like he's going to take this whole tournament. Ed wins. Fittingly he landed a Psycho Upper to close out the tournament.

So I've recently been getting back into playing beat em ups. The Streets of Rage 4 update has been getting most of my time. It's legit some of the most fun I've had in awhile.

 

Anyway, to further get my fix, I went back to the X-Men Arcade game. I remember being so addicted to that game. Especially in the Arcade.

 

After finishing the first 2 stages, I had to turn it off. That shyt was really putting me to sleep.

 

I need that Revenge of Shredder asap.

I think there's something to playing those Konami beat em ups in a noisy arcade that smells like fried food where you're slapping the shit out of the buttons that doesn't translate as well when you play them in other places.

TIME OVER

[Darc_Requiem]

Man I'm seeing a lot Sims in Top 8s lately.

[Skort]

Been messing around with Kolin a bit and man her heavy buttons are some top tier stuff. I actually have a rookie account setup that i was planning to use and try and learn some Akira a bit while streaming  but i may go for Kolin for the lols. Or eh....both...

 

I still believe Kolin is overall the best SFV newcomer  they added when you factor in story / gameplay / visuals combined . Kinda funny how even though she is basically Gill's secretary she does not feel like a jobber at all compared to let's say Necalli who is supposed to be some almighty ancient power but feels  underwhelming.

One of the things that fighting games have lost with its newcomers are representatives of actual fighting styles.  Tekken used to be great about it but around the time Tekken 5 came out they became worse and worse with real fighting styles and quickly lost the plot from that point onwards.  Street Fighter was becoming like that by the time SSF2 rolled around, but Kolin is a refreshing return to form with her ROSS-esque fighting style and more traditional strikes and holds

 Juri , Laura and Poison i play the most and it won't change but eh i'll mess around with others as well from time to time.   

 

Honestly i really like to use Kolin's air counter because it reminds me of Gouken's counter ( i loved that move ) it's the  main reason i try to learn her at least from some casual matches from time to time.

 

Main reason indeed.

IIRC Kolin and Marie Rose (DOA) are the only Systema practitioners in fighting games right now.

These guys were speculating a SF 6 launch roster and this is what they came up with. 

 

 

Apparently the story will involve time travel and the sorts but i still think that roster is way off. Way too many world warriors and i really do not see both Bison and Nash returning ( at least for the main roster ) since they both died in SFV, even if the story involves time travel.

If you want to speculation. Well good speculation, go to our story thread. Whether they are off the mark are not, you'll actually learn things about the cast of SFV. Velociraptor is great at banners but this isn't his lane.

For initial roster

 

I don't think Sagat and Dhalsim would return in the initial roster probably DLC later

 

There a chance that Feilong and Nash won't be returning for awhile

 

Sakura and Karin is likely for DLC

 

What I expect for SF6 initial roster

 

Ryu, Chun li, Ken, Juri, Guile, Zangief, Bison, Cammy, Vega, New

Luke, Kolin, Makoto, Ibuki, Elena, Hugo, Falke, Akira, Rose, New
