Aha. Well I'm up in Evanston for the forseeable future. So if there are any gatherings or events within the range of public transit, I'm down to get my ass kicked for a while.

So I'm back in near the city for school, wondering if anyone's still playing this or if the crowds all moved to TTT2. I'm fine either way. Brought my 360 but I can't hook it up to anything, so I'm weeks out of practice either way.

The thing about 666B (and 666B -> 66B), is that 666B is bufferable. As soon as you see an attack land, start hitting those 6's. The thing about 66B is that it is NOT bufferable. It will only work if you input 66 once 666B has fully recovered. This caused no end of frustration for me when I was...

There are four ways to lose a round: Have all of your health be depleted Get knocked off the edge of a stage Have less health than your opponent when time runs out and Preform iCR as Voldo

I cannot choose whether I message someone or not.

Yeah but if you get hit, it treats it the same as standing, so a vert that hits grounded picks him right up.

Also, Voldo in landfish stance is considered STANDING. If you have a strong launcher that hits low enough, (like Cerv's 3B) throw that shit out. If you get him to whiff even one hit, free combo.

No actually iCR is such a powerful technique that Bamco nerfed it in the latest patch so whenever you do it you lose the round true story my brother knows a developer.

I used to really like this move too, but once I realized that you can combo off WS B with iGDR, I stopped using it almost immediately. WS B is a MUCH safer alternative that comes out at basically the same speed, and if your iGDR skills are up to snuff, can do as much or more damage. WS B+K is...

Cervantes' 6A doesn't do it? I thought any attack that normally spins the opponent around doesn't turn Voldo out of BS.

Yeah me too.

I use self-mutilation in an effort to discourage losing. Every time I lose a match I bite my hand as hard as I can. Every three in a row, I make a mark on my arm with a knife. I don't have too many marks on my arm, but I remember them pretty well. I once fought a guy who just cleaned my clock...

Is there ever a use for A+K? I can use it to evade most moves just fine, but even when it works it takes so long to recover that I eat a sword to the face.

It actually is really solid as a tech trap and long-range punisher, because if you hit with it then BS WR B is ALSO a tech trap, leading to a pretty juicy combo. If it gets blocked, I usually just go defensive and give up Blind Stance. In my experience, if you enter blind stance without at...
