Where the hell did you get that signature? XD

That's some Halo anime right thur.

Smooth Criminal
lol, it's from a series of "east meets west" called, Halo: Legends. This particular one is, "The Package." It's 10 minutes of crazy wtf.

btw, wtf Makoto hate. It's like hating Balrog in Street Fighter because he's black or Chun Li because she's a woman.

Also, Ragna does much more damage than Tager... just about everyone (except Tsubaki and Rachel, I guess) does more damage than Tager.

I'd rather Tager actually have something of a legitimate playstyle, rather than revolving around stupid gimmicks. Gadget Finger is fine and dandy, but an actual buff to his moveset would be really nice.

I pretty sure that PS3 is the standard for many fighting game communities.

That might explain the lower number 360 players you find.
Which is interesting because in Louisiana, we have the 360 as the standard console, at least for SF. I guess you could include BlazBlue if you play on a stick as it won't make a difference as to which you play on.

We oughtta get some games in some time. Blazblue/Super, Idk.

I'll add you. I'm still playing story mode though to get Nu.

EDIT: I can't seem to find you.

God I love Makoto's moveset.

It's a shame she has to be a ****ing furry as well as a *****. I wish she was some fat dude so noone would fanboy over him and/or use him.

Hazama can do well against Tager. Just zone him.

That's how everyone bets Tager. Zoning.

Nah, it's actually pretty close. Still Hazama's favor though.

The thing about Tager is that he's a punishment character who has random combos, throws, or supers that can take off half your life. He's not hard to play against but if you don't know how then you'll probably lose.

It's pretty frustrating to whoop on Tager for an entire round, he builds meter for getting his *** kicked, grabs me once and takes 60% of my health.

But that's what Tager does. He's a grappler. What he lacks in mobility, he makes up for in damage. :ohwell:

Plus, don't you play SSFIV? You can really judge, especially considering the meter you build when you get hit in that game.

If Jam plays Litchi then it's pretty funny to hear him whine about losing 60 percent from one (super) grab when any random hit from Litchi leads to 30-40 percent damage.

Low tier < Top Tier


Not to mention that with meter Litchi can do 60 percent combos.

They don't, but at the same time they totally do. It's like in summer of 08 where there wasn't an official tier list yet but everyone knew MK and Snake were da bess.
Actually, everyone thought that Snake was the best back then. :laugh:

I just messed around a bit with Litchi. She's a lot of fun to play as, but I'm still sticking with Noel. Too bad I can't do any combos, though... :urg:

You just gotta practice, buddy. It's the only way you'll learn them. :)
Yeah, it's just really hard to learn the inputs, when to use the combo, and get it all down consistently. It's especially hard for me because this the first 2d fighter that I've ever taken seriously, lol.

Also, I'm getting used to a stick, but that's not a big deal. :laugh:

Werekill, I need to show you my Noel sometime. I still suck at approaching with her, but Noel has some really nice combos. I'm pretty much doing simpler ones than what my friend does, but they still do a lot of damage. Just work at getting used to an arcade stick and things will come naturally.

And I think Tager's damage is fine in this game. With Gadget Finger, Tager can have a really good Oki game. They just need to work on refining his playstyle more so he won't be able to be zoned out so easily for the next game. Dare I say it, they should look at how they made Potemkin... But they're getting there with Tager ever so slowly.

Although, Potemkin did have it easier than Tager since GG's was different along with the screen being much smaller.

Actually, Potemkin was in the same spot that Tager is in now for every GG game until Accent Core. In AC he's really good but still suffers from horrible matchups. What made him so good in AC as opposed to the other games? Scary oki, which is what I think they were trying to do with gadget finger.

I think the reason Pot in AC is better than Tager in CS is because both need meter in order to get in and cause havoc with mindgames, unless you like doing unsafe stuff. The meter builds faster in GG, so that's more chances for Pot. Not to mention Pot can cancel his charge for only 25 percent meter whereas Tager has no such option.


Also good luck learning to approach with Noel. It is not easy.

Very true. Pot gaining meter fast was pretty nice because of how GG was.

Luckily I don't plan on learning her to a huge extent. Her approach is one of the main reasons I don't main her/use her.
Noel's approach is probably one of the biggest reasons holding her back, IMO.

^ Don't do stuff that is unsafe on block then.

Alternatively, pick Bang and 5A to victory.
No, I mean I am the one parrying. Makoto has a bubble around her that puts the opponent in stun if they are in that bubble, but it can be spaced to where she is in lag while the other person lols. Basically, my main practice partners are Hakumen mains and when I parry a 4C, it's pretty lame because Hakumen just doesn't care.

It would be awesome if Space Parry caused a giant shockwave, or at least give 3S-like stun.

I guess the best solution would be to not play online? Yeah, I dunno. Makoto is weird.

On an unrelated note, I am modding my stick right now! Again! Pics when it's done. :3
