SFxT notes + teaser!

Below you'll find a bunch of things I noticed during my frustratingly brief period with Street Fighter x Tekken. First though, I have to give a big shout out to Dawgtanian, everyone at Capcom, the EX Dragon Project and Jamar aka zeextreme kid for all of their help. Onwards!!

New channel + Preparing for SFxT!

I spent a morning revisiting EX3 and noticed the similarities between it and SFxT. I'm too hype for SFxT and this is depressingly the closest thing I have to it at the moment.

desk vs desk

yeah, I couldn't think of a good title.

PLAYING STREET FIGHTER

I get tons of mail about what kind of things to practice and/or what techniques to work on to improve execution. I originally intended this to be simple, visual examples of plinking (both timing and frequency of use) but it soon turned into something hopefully a little more interesting. Also, I haven't had access to a camera for a little while and since now I do, I wanted to do something with direct feed + actual inputs.

UMvC3 Dec 19th Patch

Yep

AE 2012 CMV

So, I wasn't doing a 2012 vid at all. I'm not hugely excited by updates that don't introduce new characters or new moves and yet, here we are.

2012 CMV?

This blog post is less exciting that you might initially think.

Exploring the Combo Counter Glitch

Briankasugano found and documented this effect a while ago. His original video was made for Vanilla but the bug remains in Ultimate. So credit and props to him before we get started. It seems like no one else has really tested it out or looked into it since then and there's a bunch of stuff that isn't documented, so here we go...

Frank West

Here you'll find combos, tech, misc clips and extra info on Frank west in UMvC3. This will be updated whenever new vids are uploaded.

MvC3 'life time' Glitch Video

There's a 'huge thanks' bit in the video but this showcase wouldn't have been possible without all of those names. This is basically a choice selection of some of the odd things players discovered in MvC3 over it's 9 month life

Skrull is totally on my UMvC3 team

Since I wasn't fortunate enough to get UMvC3 early (grrrr!!!), I'm stuck with Vanilla for the moment. I'm thinking of putting Skrull on my new team and I don't think I've actually selected him since the day 1 vid, so this is a good time to get used to his properties and specials.

The tenderizer infinite was documented a few months ago but not only have I not seen anyone reproduce it but the finder doesn't even loop it in the video. Instead using the playback/record feature to repeat the combo (you would only need to actually record a single rep). After spending about an hour messing around with this yesterday, I have to assume that this is because of the extreme difficulty. It actually feels like 2 1-frame links on consecutive frames (the inputs being up-forward and then L). I guess you could get good at it but I think the chances of anyone relying on it in match are very unlikely.

I've got sooo much stuff to test when I finally get Ultimate!!

CAMMY!

I'm back from the dead to bring you Episode 5, featuring Cammy. This one is even more my favorite than Dudley. Definitely the most fun remix to do too. Transcript and details on how much horrible walking between normals was required follows...
