some serious hatin and "elbows too pointy" syndrome goin on in this thread.

Even though I really enjoy the game and like to learn every character, there are some characters that like you said just don't mesh with your play style. I understand it's a pretty big deal to find a char you like b/c it makes the game much more fun...those chars u don't enjoy make the game...

Can u do d/f2, 33, f+4,3,4~f1 B! ? I normally just do d/f2, f+4,3,4~f1 B! (~ is hold forward not roll into forward...just too lazy to type the actual notation) EDIT: messed up my bound move so updated accordingly

Zafina is definitely a weird char in the Tekken universe. Against scrubs, just abuse her knockdown lows until they start wisening up and throw in some mids. That's basically how I learn a char from the ground up since I feel it's the most effective way of getting a feel of her tools. Like...

Megiddo, dat's koo I have an offline sparring partner who swears off online as well so I understand. I am one of those online masochists so that's why I keep playing online. But it does kinda suck when you play serious against good players and realize that even if you win or lose it doesn't...

Thanks for the Leo tips, guys. Really helpful. I like these consolidated lists cuz they get you a really nice quickstart on a character. Also, I noticed Leo's df1+2,1+2,qcf+2 ("BBP") has a JF. You just press the qcf+2 at the later frames after 1+2. Some of you prob. know this already, but...

BoringRyu, that's very cool of you and I will certainly do that, thanks dude. I don't have the game with me now, but when I get it back I will certainly hit u up. Is SF4 ur main game, or you just play it a lot as a side game? I play mainly Tekken 6 nowadays, but I've always wanted to learn a...

Thanks for the replies guys much appreciated. I'll have to experiment with those chars u mentioned when I get the chance. Also, how about Ryu vs. Akuma...who's easier to start with? I think Akuma's air fireballs opens up a whole new zoning + mindgame, right? And what about Dan vs. Ryu and...

Yeah online is my 2nd practice mode when I am doing work or just chillin' haha. I just play randoms so I can test out stuff with characters. Once in a while you meet a pro and it's like damn give me some breathing room so I can just test out a move! Bruce's 3,3 is delayable so that's a new...

Hey guys, I am a noob when it comes to 2D games so I am wondering which SF4 character would be the best to start off with if I want to learn the fundamentals? In addition, which of the new SF4 characters is the easiest to start off with? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

For T6, Namco released a Japanese survey that apparently was read by the dev team. If anything, a Soul Calibur survey by Namco in Japanese would probably be the right direction...if such a thing even exists. Frankly speaking, Japan's xenophobic reputation makes me think anything written in...

Thanks XLcowboy, that gave me some ideas to test out. I'll see if I can get iSW better now with those tips. Also, just tried out Bruce for the first time for fun and holy crap this guy is GOOD. He got totally buffed in almost everyway from DR. I am still in awe at the huge leap he made...

XLcowboy, I am wondering do you have any tips for getting iSW after bound? I am still too used to the DR rhythm so I still mess it up. I do find b2, 1+2 B! iSW easier than f222 B! iSW for some reason. Maybe cuz the first one allows you to recover faster. I start the iSW around the time I see...

Yea stick might be the way to go for DJ if you want to master his wavedash. I am more adept on pad now since I've been using it longer, but I can see stick being easier in the long run. Compared to Soul Cal, playing Tekken is quite strenuous on your fingers due to the execution. I think you...

Paragon049, I know exactly what you mean as I used to wonder the same thing before. The execution of iWR attacks is basically the same as a dashing jab or King's iSW. As I mentioned in an earlier post, the way I see it breaking down is if you can do King's iSW, you can do whatever else...
