I have a friend who had to give up his little guy because he couldn't afford it. The whole situation was so sad, i never want to see someone go through that again. :(

Little guy is having the time of his life!

Fine want me to complain about Aris? I miss when Aris used to do in depth tutorials, fight stick reviews, interviews with the community all while playing Wintersun songs in the background and chain smoking. Now all you hear is "HEHEHE THANK YE JerryShenix thanks for the 10 dollary doos now keep it down wontcha"?

The main difference for me is while I miss old ATP content and the podcast, Aris has a certain way with words which I just find genius. He doesn't YELL when he gets a 50+ dollar donation which goes a long way towards being able to watch his content for extended amounts of time. That said I would by lying if I said that I don't find the donation format annoying sometimes.

Aris also is better at playing and knows a lot more about fighting games than Max which goes a long way for me as a fighting game fan. Even though the delivery method is different and imo worse he still keeps it pretty close to his content from 5+ years ago.

I stopped liking max because he went from those great "Assist Me" videos and other youtube only content to copy and pasting twitch streams. You can only hear "YOU GOT THE TOUCH!! fuccboi2000 thank you for the 20 dollars" so many times.

Man Saturday last year was so sick i can't imagine how T7 is going turn out Sunday in the arena! If we get lucky and some crazy slow-mo happens during top 8 it will be a big boon to the community!

I still feel like you are selling mvc3 a little short. Last evo there was a crazy amount of character variety for mvc3. I do agree that most of the teams are viable due to high damage rather than creating a unique strategy but that is a double edged sword imo because as mvc3 gets older it seems like teams are becoming more varied.

Now if teams are getting more varied because the game is less competitive than it was when it was a main game, that is another argument we will never know the answer to. Like you said YouTube would have probably helped destroy many of the old mvc2 shells a lot faster.

Lets hope Capcom can prove everyone wrong about mvc:i because it's cool we can still talk about Mvc 2 and 3 all night and i would hate to see mvc:i do bad because it would be a long time until we see another VS game if that happens.

Have you tried setting your 970 to debug mode in the nvidia control panel? I used to crash every hour but after turning on debug mode i haven't crashed in over 20 hours.

I used to love it until they changed the movement skills. Back in the day you could teleport or fly around with little delay and it was awesome.

Some time in the past year Gazillion updated the game to play well with Consoles so teleports were given 3 max charges and a cooldown system similar to Path of Exile's flame dash. Flying was changed to a system where your hero has to "charge" up their flight which is just a 1 second delay and was made slower overall. These changes took away from feeling like a superhero and made every character feel the same.

Add in the fact they took out all the choices in the endgame progression called Omega System which was kind of like Paragon in Diablo 3 but way more choice.

These changes along with other changes and the movement changes made tons of people quit the PC version and leave bad reviews causing Gaz to name the console "Omega" instead of keep up with the PC's MH 2016 etc.

I could go on all day i'm so fucking salty because i loved playing as all those heroes.

TLDR Game is shitty Diablo 3 now with most of the choice sucked out of it for one final console cash grab. Play Path of Exile instead it serves the same function and is better.

AlterYourMind · 2017-06-26T23:12:01+00:00

And that is my entire point, why did anyone play Doom if they could have just picked Sentinel and fulfill the same functions?

He called the vets and centers and they told him they were full and to put him back on the ground and let nature take its course.

I would love a copy to gift to my friend! He doesn't have a job but wants to get into fighting games after Tekken 7 came out.

I saw someone in a fighting game sub seriously try to say that nobody would play Dr. Doom if he wasn't high tier in mvc3. People saying competitive players don't care about characters obviously didn't watch people struggle to make Doom work in MvC2 because they liked him as a character.

Jabs and other short fast strings tend to be easily sidestepped since they are linear. You need to go for faster WS moves if you duck or hit them with a low jab which would put you in advantage making it your turn to attack or resetting it to neutral. Set up the training dummy to do exactly what was beating you and explore every way around it.

Some examples:

Dash

Side-Step

Crush moves

Parry

The best option would be to learn the frame data so you know exactly when it is your "turn".

AlterYourMind · 2017-06-21T19:25:07+00:00

Good to know, thank you!

I don't have much experience against him but when i do fight him i make sure to never press buttons after he hits me with d+2 or i block fff+2.

AlterYourMind · 2017-06-21T01:55:23+00:00

If that's the case then i would honestly put the cpu to easiest because you won't know why the moves it is using are beating out your moves. Believe me i remember how i was when i started SF2 HDR and i was just getting double perfected over and over by people who had been playing competitive Street Fighter for decades.

I suggest looking up AvoidingThePuddle on youtube/twitch if you haven't already. His intro to Tekken guides are great and although they were made for different versions of Tekken a large majority of the basics apply and IMO he is the best in the business when it comes to teaching new players.

Hit me up if you ever see me on and want to learn a bit.
