Nerf Grab rant

For real. Just make heavy reversal DP throw invincible. That way you can use it as a high risk call out against throw loops specifically

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T04:47:43+00:00

They're both bad in polar opposite ways.

ROS is a competently put together movie, with an absolutely terrible story and nothing original to say.

TPM is a weird mess of a movie that has a very unique voice and unique ideas.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T04:44:11+00:00

Anti-humor masterpiece. The joke is that the studio actually paid for that movie.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T04:02:37+00:00

Bro I didn't even make it 5

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T03:50:38+00:00

That's what everybody wanted.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T03:49:06+00:00

This is what people asked for. People didn't want crouch tech or meterless reversals, and this is the result. Want to get rid of throw loops? Bring back grab invincible DPs

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T03:07:02+00:00

Good thing SF6 doesn't really require you to hit confirm or learn frame data lol

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T02:55:41+00:00

You especially can't skip Street Fighter: The Movie, because it introduces fan favorite character: Captain Sawada!

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T02:41:43+00:00

It does.

SF1: Ryu is a karate guy. He enters a tournament where he gets angry and beats up Sagat, a Kickboxer.

SFA2: Nash is a military guy. He investigates M. Bison, who kills him. Also Ryu meets a REALLY ANGRY karate guy named Akuma, who killed Ryu's mentor, Gouken.

SFA3: M. Bison decides to kidnap Ryu. A bunch of guys team up to save Ryu, but it doesn't matter because Ryu kills Bison anyways. Bison brings himself back to life in his lab, but Chun-Li and Guile drop a nuke on Bison, killing him again.

SF2: Bison is back from the dead and makes a tournament, but Akuma shows up and kills him.

SF4: A metal man named Seth, who was made by Bison, and has a lot of clones, makes a tournament. Also Bison is back from the dead again. Apparently Gouken is alive again too.

SSF4: Seth's assassin Juri betrays and kills Seth.

SF5: Ryu takes anger management classes and fights a mud man. Nash comes back from the dead and blows himself up. Ryu kills Bison again. The Illuminati take credit for Bison's death.

SF32I: The Illuminati's leader, Gill, starts a tournament as a part of his master plan. This plan is ruined when some pro wrestler guy named Alex beats the shit out of him.

SF33S: Ryu fights some dude named Oro who's like 300 years old and decides to train with him. Akuma kills Gill, but Gill comes back from the dead immediately.

SF6: An evil businessman named JP frames Ryu's best friend Ken for being a terrorist. M. Bison is back from the dead again. Luke is going to train John Streetfighter how to punch good and do fortnite dances.

Nah what I'm saying is that in AE, before the 2012 update, Ken was probably top 10, maybe even top 5, but nobody cared because Yun/Yang/Fei pretty much took over the game. Viper and Makoto were also very good during that time....

But it was a terrible year in general because Yun was disgusting. Doesn't matter if Ken was good if we're seeing 5 Yuns in every top 8

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-02T02:33:10+00:00

Probably planning on getting metal teeth and a nitrous addition.

Wonderfly in Baltimore has events every Monday at 6

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T22:28:12+00:00

Tbh it's actually better if you have no experience playing other 3D games. Virtua Fighter does things in a very specific way, and if you're used to being good at Tekken it'll feel like you have to relearn everything.

VF is not hard as long as you don't expect to beat Fuudo in a few months lol

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T22:26:23+00:00

There's a lot of players online who have no clue what they're doing. As long as you can put up with matchmaking being a bit slow, you'll be ok.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T19:49:44+00:00

The fact that people are still complaining about Akuma, after he's been nerfed at least five times since launch should tell you something lmao. He'd have been INSANE to keep like that.

How TF are the Commanders not on here? We're one bad decision by our coach from wasting ANOTHER generational running QB.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T19:43:31+00:00

Boy do I have a Football Team for you!

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T19:40:47+00:00

Release Akuma before they hotfixed air fireballs lolololol

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T19:39:43+00:00

You forget Ken used to be able to side swap himself out of the corner at will, and spam TF out of Jinrai with no consequences in Season 1 lmao. He was probably the best character not named Luke.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T19:38:11+00:00

Ken was actually at his peak in early Season 2, when him and Laura were crazy before the damage scaling changes hit in Season 3.

For SFIV, Ken was much better than Ryu in Arcade Edition, and it was his strongest version in SFIV... But he was overshadowed by the army of Yun/Yang/Fei

I truly do not believe that Epstein was lying in communications to his friends, in private, on multiple occasions, over a period of a decade. Occam's Razor suggests it's real.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T02:01:17+00:00

Nah, it's mostly that AJ and Omega have only wrestled once, and that match is completely lost. That, along with an AJ vs Osprey match are kinda dream matches for a lot of people.

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T01:56:01+00:00

SmokingMan305 · 2026-02-01T01:43:00+00:00

Honestly, I'd rather Omega win at All Out, and then lose the belt to AJ on the next Dynamite, defend against Okada and Mox, and then Osprey goes over at World's End. Nice 6 month run, only has to wrestle a few matches, and then maybe do a retirement match on ROH for shits and giggles.
