I get the sneaking suspicion that everyone and their mother is going to be playing GTA5 this weekend. And also things are kinda slow in general this time of year :(
jansauer, are you in charge of seeding? nomrah at SRK mentioned that there would be some seeding based on previous results but I wasnt clear on who was doing it. 3 out of the top 4 at Summer Slam are already preregistered, for example.
I've never played any of the games in the series, but I'll probably try 5. I could use a hang picking a character. I think I'd like to find a character like Pyrrha if thats possible. That is to say:
- relatively fast normals for interupts.
- good whiff/block punishing (good punishes off...
Use the training mode to do the following:
Set the computer to guard all, second action - replay random
Record 3 different actions by the computer. Some mix that you have to respond different ways to and/or punish with different moves. Like 3B, punish with AA. Something you have to block low...
I find that Pyrrha is all about studying frame data. You need to be able to 236B anything in the game thats -14 on block, and so you need extensive knowledge on every one's moves, how to block them and how unsafe they are.
Also, 4B, 6B+K will ring out at maybe 1-2 character widths from the point where the 4B hit, because the 4B knocks them backwards on their butt, then the 6B+K will send them flying back again.
If you hit 4B, you generally want to go 66B+K,A,B, tap guard as they fly over your head, and then 236 B or CE just as they are taking floor splat damage.
How do you approach Nightmare's NSS stance? For instance, if he went into it after you block 3B(hold), do you wait and try to block what they do out of it or do you try to hit him first.
You can stab everything out of 3B except it seems NSS bA, which steps it and hits you.
Alternatively...
Nice meeting the Ohio crew. If you need something to remember me by, I did a spicy burrito challenge at Cazuela's Grill on High St. They took my picture for the wall. Shit was free. Spicy for Ohioans if funny.
More like Dr Major Kart, mirite?

What do you do to deal backstepping turtlers? This has become a problem for me recently. Moreso when your opponent has more range than you to begin with.

Pyrrha really isnt a mixup character. Her lows are largely slow/terrible. You're really stuck with throw/attack. She's usually a whiff punish/block punish character. You should be be studying frames and practice stabbing everything in the game thats -14...
