Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

[Sett]

Getting good with Serah, yeah I said I would start with a wrestler but I'm always drawn to the blonde girls -__-.


Anyway just been sweating out results my flamingo mix ups. All I see online is Akiras, with a few apperences from Pai and the shaolin guy.

Man, why do all the Akira players I see gotta be so bad...

Ended up losing repeatedly to an Akira player who did nothing by 1P and 2P spam. So dang annoying. Also got stuck fighting an Akira player who spammed strings. Much easier to deal with since its easy to predict and use Aoi's counters to smash them apart. Sadly, I don't know much of a way of creating openings, et al. with Aoi. I can be aggressive, but end up being rather repetitive.

Eileen hasn't been working out too well. I can't get into any of the advanced combos as I keep screwing it up, so I'm just futzing around with basic combos given from the command list.

On that note... I wondering if I should really try to grasp Akira. Lots of his basic stuff is easier to do now, though SPoD, and his new multi-part guard break move are seriously difficult still. I'm not really quite sure how to approach with him either. I like the walking stuff, and the new side-step options are cool, but seem real easy to just break apart with random jabs.

I've personally come across a variety of chars. online, pretty much everyone besides wolf/eileen/taka. Gotta say though, I hate Shun Di right now. It's just...whadahellamasposedtodooooo?! vs. that character -__-

I'm actually finding myself getting bored playing in ranked mode...everyone there is about as skillful as SCV ranked. Nobody knows their combos, or what being a disadvantage means. >.<

I got to 1st dan in no time flat on PSN. Level of Comp's higher on XBL from what I've seen. (Though ranked in any online fighter is invariably a joke.)
