The most notable things of the last few pages:
Twitch, teching MM? I've been practicing teching in place straight out of getting hit and immediately grabbing/shining etc before their moves are over. See me
David dancing around in a cow suit. Good god the joy I feel with this image.
Also, what is GBH?

*shrug* idk. he has a car, so if he's interested enough i'm sure he'll drive. I'll probably play with him thursday and contact him before that to see what he's gonna do if you all really care.

It'd be nice to have phanna there for more than samus practice XD but that'd ****.

I've seen the next level for my Roy to ascend to. Soon my Roy will be more Godly than ever before. And what a glorious day that shall be...

How'd you pull that off vZakat?

Well it's a combination of several things. First was the realization that I play every character in every fighting game the same. Knowing this made me see how much better my roy could be if I applied my play style from my other characters, particularly my Nero. My nero is very aggressive and pressures a lot, especially with tick throws, despite being a zoning character. Roy being a zoning character (with his sword) and having a great grab game allows for him to be played in the same way.
While playing with Josh and friends yesterday, I notice just how much space I was giving my opponents. It was to the point where I was basically relinquishing control of the match to play my "defensive punish" style. I'm starting to combined my nero play style with some of the spacing/grab stuff that I saw your Roy doing to bring a new style that I thing will work overall better.
The hard thing about this new style is having to know my spacing in a different way not to mention thinking about what safe options my opponent has to counter act my pressure. I know I can do it, I just new some time to learn this new stuff and get better at adapting to changes/mix ups in defense.

I just think of the crazy Roman Emperor.
vZakat, I think that's a great way to put a better balance on offense and defense, which is something I always highly recommend people strive for in their play. Lemme know how it goes dude. =)

The problem I have with Rushdown in this game is that it's completely different from other fighters, just like the entirety is different.
Rushdown doesn't really work perfectly like they do in other games.
But that's more of a mindset rather than an actual moveset I guess.

that depends on your character... you can play fox falco magneto wesker and wolvie the exact same way

Rushdown =/= mindlessly attacking, for the record.
It's all about knowing all the situations, forcing the small advantages and reacting better than your opponent (you should considering you forced the situation). Give them room to breathe and they can catch up. Be faster (literally and mentally) than they are and you will flatten them.

Falcon when he gets a grab is dependent on the character. He's not a crazy rushrown char. If he doesn't have a free throw->Knee combo, his style is closer to a series of option selects. Like, they're all escapable but its a guessing game of what's gonna happen. Falcon flows like Defense -> punish -> option select -> damage.
It's basically like Marisa throwing a puffball at a character in the corner in touhou. Yeah, you can graze out but she can react to your decision and punish you out of a seemily escapable pressure situation. straight forward graze? 6Djb/a to knock you out of your graze or witch leyline gimmicks. High jump graze? She can do her dashing overhead broom swing to counterhit you out of your highjump. and from there, she can just j.B loop you for like a 4th of your health.
Sup, btw.

the closest person to a rushdown falcon is probably darkrain. he aggresses right though. as PLUR said though falcon's not really a rushdown character.
