Groh -
I call his stance as ST right now for lack of knowing the actual name
AAA - Feels pretty standard
6AA - HM - Doesn’t jail
Knocks down
6A6 is a stance transition
3A - Feels stubby and standard
2A -...
This is going to be an open source Sophie handbook. If you want to add something go to Sophieland or the 8WR thread
Horizontals -
AAA - H,H,H - 6AS transition possible.
Safe on block hits 2 and 3
Advantage on hit 2 and 3 causes spin

That's right folks, MLG Anaheim player passes for everything but fighting games are sold out and spectator passes are almost gone. What does that mean? That means that soon the Starcraft2 and LoL spectators are going to have to buy our competitor passes just to get in the door.
If you have...
Ok, so for the time being I'm just going to assume you know what the Critical Gauge does, looks like and how you generate said meter. I was thinking about doing a primer for total noobs to begin with, but there are a few of them around already. If you don't know that much check out Primer X on...
I have been working for a while on getting this on the website, I hope you all love helping to create/read this as it evolves. The base idea is to get a database of players and their accomplishments along with bios and other personal stuff they want to put up. I hope this becomes a repository of...
This doesn't look like much right now, but it's a compilation of the more technical stuffs covered in the game. Links you to threads with appropriate data with a blurb about what that thread/article covers. This is all general system stuff with some defensive matchup things you need to know...
JG Basics – Smurf Stylie!
I see a lot of people kinda lost to the applications of JG. So I wanted to write about how to do JG itself, the 4 basic applications I see people using and the technical nonsense that ensues as a result. Oh, and break it down so the people who don't get the technical...
So I really feel like the new patch has settled into my head and it really forced me to re evaluate every aspect of my Leixia. Here is some of the basic concepts I came away with and I'm not sure how to answer them quite yet, because they are all matchup specific.
Creating opportunities for...
He's popular with the ladies
He even has his own brand of soft drink
But why does he look happier with his hands on the soft drink than with his hands on boobies?
8WAYRUN is accepting applications for multiple writers for the front page and forum moderators. Times they are a changing and some of our staff has other obligations to take care of. So in the effort to usher some new blood into the ranks, we are accepting applications.

Patroklos has lots of ways to force small disadvantage or even frames on block. These situations are often exploitable on a matchup to matchup basis. A classic example is Sophie from 1-4 could 4B into -2 forced crouch and then 2A... Most character had to use a move that A+B would counter in...
So now that we all got the bitching over and done with here is what really happened
WR B BE - This didn't get nerfed as hard as everyone was expecting. The aGI is only for highs now, so what. The sidestep is slower, that only really effects it on wakeup and let's face it wakeup WR B BE was...
The full list of rules is here and it's fairly conformed to our standards, so allow me to cut right into the big differences. Contrary to one rumor I heard Devil Jin is banned, thank the gods. It's not listed, but a MLG rep has told me Dampierre will play. There are a few things that are out of...
We asked and Namco Bandai has delivered. They released information about an upcoming patch to be released next week March 21st. This is going to revamp the ranked matchmaking and most importantly address issues that we the consumers have voiced about gameplay as well as character balance...
Getting my feet wet and thinking about maining her instead of the all too popular Leixia... I noticed there is no thread about breaks. So I pose a few questions.
What are her primary tools to apply guard pressure?
Can you apply good guard damage in a battle of pokes? Anything that applies...
I know there have to be some of you who watch the GSL and/or follow the SC2 scene. What's up. Did any of you check out the Blizzard Cup finals? Greatest games EVER!
Favorite players? MMA for myself and that is from before he started winning events, I just love someone that can rock a drop...
For those of you who haven't been paying attention this page will explain http://www.avoidingthepuddle.com/news/2012/1/28/soul-calibur-5-auto-fuzzy-guard-against-lows.html
Now this theoretically blows up Seig's whole stance mixup game, but there are a few things. First off you can see the...
Do you enjoy thankless work in return for the illusion of power? Do you like knowing you will have people nagging you to do things you may not want to do? How about dealing with a ton of noobs without losing your head? All while trolls try to fuck with you. If you answered yes to all these...
