Good Games Thread

ggs to Dennis and Feck for showing me Akiralove Dennis i've never seen anyone do dblplms so well and Feck drops those knees like clockwork.
ggs to White Worm for pulling out Wolf on me. Wolf is a tough matchup for lei fei. 2p screw lariat and 4k mixups are can be tough to punish, especially online. If I CH with 66p, by the time I close in for an attack you can backdash and 46p+k. Shoulder ram is great stance ownage. Next time I'm using an alt. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

 

gg to "GentlemanThief" and "shun is drunk" i had a very time playing ya! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

 

Yah Coz, they was fun games. I don't know if you could tell but Shun scares the shit out of me and that was a tricky Shun you had /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif My SPoDs were failing hard too, so ghey.

Also GGs to...

PL4YER7 - Had quite a few matches with you tonight, sorry about the 2p shenanigans. I do get into a habit of mimicking what my opponent does, I don't mean anything by it though <3.

oldboygouki - That Eileens getting better man, don't be afraid of Akira work on your defense a little and you'll pwn me easy /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

narenski - Fun Brad vs Brad matches, not sure if this guy posts here but he could do with at least looking round here. I tried to tell him to check vfdc out but he didn't understand my English, someone who can speak properly should tell him to take a look.

tsua - Battle of the n00b alternate characters, can't believe you was using Akira and you didn't throw one dm p+k. He has one of the best dm p+k's in the game, spam that shit man!

Linzhuomin Only twp matches and way too laggy but that's a nice Lei you got!

OhNoYouDidntVF - Nice non existent matches we had, BG's to you for not playing me tonight, missed you man haha.

Pretty sure that's it, sorry if I forgot anyone.

 

Good games to ughil and your blaze and brad. I wasn't fully focused but still made a decent run at it. I played like crap since my last match with Kaminari Oyaji and his awesome sarah, I need to change that really soon.

Good games to everyone else I fought as well including thrfin with his solid lau. I am sorry for playing as bad as I did.

 

I've been using him for a long time but I'm nowhere close to Lucky_GT, I'm not sure how he does it. When I'm using Goh I feel slow and feel like I eat counter hit /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gifs like like a fat kid eats cheese burgers. My Yomi is not good I think.

GGS to WretchedWench??? Once again, Pai stuck it to me pretty bad. Pai is my worst match now, hands down. You F-ed me up bad with /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/db.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif. Mixing /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/db.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif on abare with mid-reversal was a real mind-fuck to me. You ate some throws, but overall, your strategy worked pretty damn well. You would mid-reverse on wake-up too and that would mess with me.

Bukotai stance = WTF?!?

That charge kick gets me more than I'm even going to admit; and you CANNOT struggle out of the follow-up /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif string, at least I can't. Regardless, I never found a good enough answer to you... I got some nice MC /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gifs but ate the abare more often. Your /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/db.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif poking ruined my overuse of /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif + /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif 2P sabaki because you wouldn't use 2P! If I side-stepped the first low kick, I'd rarely remember to crouch dash cancel my evade to duck the second part so I'd end up on the ground A LOT. From there, your oki ripped me a new one.

Anyways, GGS my man! Nice Pai (aka Burg's nemesis)

 

Another move I see countering it somewhat effectively is Pai's standing P+K bounce move. I actually bounced a few other pai players out of it and I would have got combos off of it but it caught me offguard when I did it that I didn't follow it up as I should. I wasn't trying to do the move actually, I found this out by accident. I do know this if pai's P+K is used it has to be done while the opposing pai player is charging the K

 

Gernburgs, I think you are being a little hard on yourself man. Your Yomi is not really bad, I think you just lack experience. Good Yomi comes from experience. Being able to understand your opponent, his character and what he is trying to do to you is how Yomi is derived in my opinion. No one is psychic, but yes some people are just overall better guessers, but even that can still be linked to experience I think.

 

Good games to everyone I've played in a year and a month. Nice to come back and post after actually learning how to play this game. Here's to another year of VF5(R).

 

GGs AkiraZero & TheNameless1.

Gernburgs, if i may: you can yomi all day with goh's low punch subaki, it's not like it's going to make a difference /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif Imagine me saying "i can't yomi with vane's /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif" , gah, who cares? But if i can yomi with with JEFF's /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif, oh boy. Imho instead of worrying about using Goh's /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif + /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif put that effort to his shoulder ram, it can kill all sorts of lows and not just low punches, plus you get guaranteed damage and stagger, now that'd be more noticeable no? /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

 

ggs to shinobi fist. man, this is only the 2nd time i can think of that i've gotten up before work to play vf5, i'd post you up longer, but my break is over, i gotta get to work.

 

1KK is natural combo only on mC and MC. If he tries to abare with it or reversals when at disadvantage, just wait a little and see what he does and punish accordly. Even if you eats 1K on normal hit you can still duck the second high kick and throw.

And for the charge kick, if you see it coming, a simple jabs or a quick mid = free juggle for you. Evading works too, but Pai recovers very fast if her charge kick is evaded.


Now, GGs to Hitmandu91, Yummy Dango, THRFin, and kahn rahn, Ad4m ( wow good lei fei!) a few days ago.

 

GGs to Gern the other day. Thanks for putting up with my horrible stick inputs as long as you did.

Nice Goh btw. He played well and looked cool.

 

GGS to everyone recently. I will be taking a break from vf due to RROD atm. I am still trying towel trick or letting it cool down. If these options don't work then it's SOL.

Peacers^-^

 

GGs to Cozby. Sorry for the occasional scrubbiness. The condition of my stick doesn't allow me to actually do the variety of moves that I'd like (i mean I CAN do them, but they don't always come out so I don't risk it).

Thats a sick lei strat, bro. Seems like I'm always at disadvantage after blocking.

 

GGs to Kaminari Oyaji, TheNameless1, SDS Overfiend, and somebody else I can't remember.

 

ggs to Marlyjay, Truesonic, VF Lion, from previous days.

And Today ggs to -> Beligerent Feck and UKDiddy.

To Feck and UKDiddy - > Those games were mad laggy but, you guys tore me up, I've realized how bad my Sarah is if I can't defend myself properly. TE I was like 5%, evade was like 50/50, and me sealing my moves up just didn't happen. If I'm not escaping throws, I'm losing matches. Not to down you guys though, because you both did your thing beating me down today.

Feck, the K in PPK is full circular, the last K in PPKK is *high and half circular - 1f CH link to PK

Peace

 

ggs to SDS Overfiend and Mista Tee VFDC

damn Mista I wish my Shun can fight you sober. I could barely get a drink off you.

 

Good Games to Boris of Wales!

 

ggs to wasted wish, u need to get back to it bro. BTW as soon as i played lucky i could max dmg finish. those northern lights be messing up ur connection. haha. But seriously i miss seeing u do new and neat stuff for me steal.
ggs to lucky. Has anyone every told u your goh is beast. Seriously though, i felt like i was living that post where u were talking about his options. Then u switched to aoi. eh. THen u switched to lei. U got a good lei. U could be special with him too if u took the time. I'm sure ya prolly could with anyone though. But it was like u didn't have any mixups, and were really just using 2 different combos with him and still was very strong. Until i held block, u were tearing it up. It's interesting to play ur subs. It's like they are all just a shell of ur goh. U do almost the same thing with almost the same timing and just don't have the "book" u do with ur goh. WIth aoi ur rising punish is the jump in kick, with lei the 33pp goh 33p. U have mids u set on for p mid mid/throw mix up. And u throw escape OM p.
If i were to give u any advice it would be just a few simple things. Noticed u mostly evade up. U always go OM p after throw escape, may wanna mix it with a low, particularly goh's catch throw. U sometimes get really patterned with how u attack. I know the pattern was working, but i'm sure better players than me would adjust to it. Always a pleasure to watch u play. It's discouraging that u can grab lei, and be almost as strong as my lei using such a limited selection of his moves. Especially throwing 33pp without hit check SO often. Is lei even a sub of yours, or do u just grab him and use him that good? I've said it before, but i'll say it again. Everytime i play u i come away impressed.
P.S. just wanna make it clear to anyone reading this, i took a thrashing : )
