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 and nice thing. I actually abuse this move a lot cuz most people don't duck it and if they do just do 32 (as some dude did to me). Some online shit with Bruce you can abuse is b2 and u/f3. When they like to do get-up low kicks, just u/f3 them in the face. And if you play Lei players who like to do their foolishery on the ground, just b2 to oblivion. Whether this is viable offline has yet to be tested by me, but this should give you a few more things to try out. Let me emphasize this again, this was only tested for online! f+3+4, and f3 are also some nice CH fishing tools I like to use, but that's when you know they're gonna be aggressive.
Btw, Kowtow since you posted in the SSF4 thread as well, damn seems like you play a lotta games! Are you trying to pick up all these games or do you have a certain # of games that are your mains? I've turned into a more casual/hardcore gamer so I'm looking at picking up other fighting games as well.
On another note, just started picking up Leo and damn he/she (I think it's she according to the director of the game) is pretty good too. Definitely scrub killer with her mix of low mid strings that knockdown. Close resemblance in style to Julia so if you're a Julia player it shouldn't be too bad of a transition. I like her supercharge moves as well those flashy bluish sparkles!
