Rock has to do different grabs based on your orientation, but they have A and B breaks for both of them... Unless they took that out in BD

That only happens in tekken. In that game the person throwing leads with one hand that will indicate the break. In SC it's the same animation for all normal grabs, some command grabs will have different animations like Voldo BT 66A+G. Outside if specific instances like that, grabs in SC all use...

Really? I was starting to believe that playing the game for it's entire competitive life wasn't long enough for me to realize there are different animations for different grabs

There is no animation to look at... There is one character that made different noises. Show video proof or STFU

...the viable mixups don't exist for all characters. Every character needed something like X's 3A to really get mixups in that game... and only a couple of them actually did. GI into throw break stops seeming good when you bait a couple and rape someone... IE step G and after seeing them whiff...

Just because idiots fall for mixups that shouldn't be mixups, doesn't make them mixups. It just makes that dude an idiot with a penchant for shouting.

I have changed mains every SC game (except SC1->2 unless you count sig into nighty) because I want to keep things fresh. While playing away from my strengths hasn't done wonders for my tournament results, I enjoy the challenge of relearning a game from a new perspective. To try and keep it...

We need people to protest having anime games at tourneys at NEC with that as our fucking slogan.

Oh, sorry. Regional in Tulsa I like the idea of, what the fuck have you guys been doing all these years?

I'm not going to read that okgamers post... I saw one thing and lost all respect for whatever moron registered that handle. I like the rest of the reccomendations, but why would you actually give another event to DFG? Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice and I must be a masochist. That or...

I was just making this point in the patroklos forums. When you choose to streamline your options and make for a minimal risk, your gameplay tells people "This isn't going to work" and they stop trying. Thus eliminating the opportunities to punish them for doing something stupid. If you can find...

Actually let me break down the nash equilibrium and why it fails in this context. The Nash equilibrium is using logical math to determine trends. Smart money would play it safe, so it picks up on that and using that as an assumption scales things to be more on the safe side. This includes the...

Maybe I'm using too many words, so try this one on for size... If you play by a nash equilibrium I will have a much easier time reading your actions and I will rape your face off. Is that in terms you can understand?

I was randomly thinking about it and I came up with a great point related to Nirf referencing poker literature. In poker as in fighting games regardless of how mathematically sound your strategy is, without deception intelligent opponents will never do what you want them to do... Unless they...

I have played poker for a living for about 8 years... So I have read a poker book or two. The problem with using models for that and applying them to fighting games is in poker you have a truly random element. In fighters the random is a human factor that is beyond statistical prediction. It's...

I feel I have greatly simplified the whole topic as it relates to math. The math itself is just a metric to help you judge the weight of given options as they relate to each other. While it should to some degree dictate your move choice, you should never let numeric values dictate your...

As much as I hate bringing this up I see Nirf and Signia trying to nitpick at math and I have to bring up the concept of the metagame. The metagame is basically how the commonly used options shape the matchup at hand. So lets take the Cervy vs Asta example from the article itself to illustrate a...

The seats given should be a function of the player field or a set number higher then 2.

We got owned

More of an any given sunday type thing IMO. The one that's better is the one that wins more events
