    Understanding Frame Animation

    Reread the OP. What you're looking at is a string: AA. Has a start up at i13 and is two hits. Depending on when you stop the string (so you do either A or AA), the numbers are how far you went.....sooooo. A = i13, -8 on block, +2 on hit AA = i13, -5 on block, +6 on hit so AA is better in all...

    SOUCALIBUR V The Official Guide By Future Press

    Guide's pretty damn good and as a graphic designer I'm very impressed with how it's all laid out. Found a few typos in the move lists, one made me laugh. A 66B (:6::6::B:), it was listed as 6:6::B:. My only real issue with it is the order the characters are put in. I cant quickly flip to the...

    Critical Edge: A Brief History of Banning...

    I was pointing out a flaw in your analogy. While I agree there is an issue with people in the scene undermining the opinions of outsiders over arguments that don't require being in the scene to form, but can be done with logic alone, there are things that DO require that experience. The DJ...

    I think people are freaking out at the EVO aspect and when that date arrives one party will be mad.

    Critical Edge: A Brief History of Banning...

    Fuzzie...yes and no...big on the no. Being foreign to new mechanics and having developed skills from previous games with similar skill concepts are 2 completely different things as well as knowing how the scene operates.

    Critical Edge: A Brief History of Banning...

    I appreciate Jaxel's proposal and really the fact people can't give credit to the idea despite it's flaws kinda irks me as it's intention is good and valid. ...But ultimately we should let DJ go as banned due to how tricky the effort will be as it progresses. There's a lot that can go wrong to...

    Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3

    Anyone know how to do that new Akuma relaunch where you demon palm in an aerial rave, then hit them BEFORE they ground bounce with a falling light tatsu? I can't seem to hit them before the bounce.

    new to SC and 8WR want to become better

    In my sig are 3 links, one on ring outs. Read it. While it is peppered in humor, take away that ring outs are part of the game. They are not a noob tactic by any means and usually when you get rung out you made multiple mistakes to allow it to happen beyond just being too close. Exceptions lie...

    new to SC and 8WR want to become better

    Many of us have the same story :D When SC5 coms out grab the guide. Apparently this one is worth getting and has frames, so it will likely help you. Kilik is in SC5, but he is a male mimic character. Xiba is the closest thing to him.

    new to SC and 8WR want to become better

    Slight corrections: Some verticles track and must be stepped a certain way. Stepping will not always save you. Not all Horizontals catch step. They should by logic, but there are times when verticals track better than some horizontals will catch. As for learning. Learn Frame data (i have...

    Why do people think that suicide is wrong?

    To an atheist they can value life more or less based on certain view points. Some will value life as their only moments of control over happiness and effect on the world, some will find it all meaningless and continue on out of boredom. A theist could invest all interest into the afterlife and...

    Why do people think that suicide is wrong?

    It's a grey area where circumstance and how it's carried out differ. Sometimes there's a valid reason and a valid way, but it's rare and a taboo is built upon it to avoid needless and unjustified suicide.

    Best way to get started with SC?

    Thankfully you'll be starting on SC5 which seems to be a fresh start for the series so now is a great time. Movement is different and meter will change the game a bit so you'll be able to start new and grow with a new group of people.

    Best way to get started with SC?

    It is hitboxes. You can tie and both hit, or in some cases cancel each other out with a clash. Moves strike in 3 areas: high, mid, low. Mids act as overheads, so in this game you don't want to crouch block unless you see a low or a high. If something says Special (like special mid or low) the...

    Best way to get started with SC?

    One thing to focus on in SC is frames matter (since there are no cancels beyond strings) and the general rule of thumb is usually once blocked you are at disadvantage . So the game is fairly poke based with unsafe moves reserved as punishes, yomis, or modified to make safe (such as at a certain...
