He seemed to have trouble with Chris Hu's Ryu, who put him into losers at that recent tourney... but in saying that, I doubt Daigo has much Fei Long experience, if any at all... should be an interesting encounter

Nothing wrong with pad man (as well you know).
I only play stick because I grew up with it in the Arcades + I had a stick for my SNES.
But ive only even played Tekken with pad - as I only ever played it on PS (never had a PS stick before).
Its gonna be interesting when T6 hits console and I start with stick.

I laugh when I see pad players kick butt at these sorts of events  ;D

Yeah i just got a stick so it's like the arcades, i didn't get one expecting it to make me God, cos i could already do everything on pad anyways.

Man you know another move i found to be hard on stick. Sakura on 2pl side,MID SCREEN, ex hurricane kick, forward dash , ultra. Before anybody says anything go try it and see if you can get it 100%. That shits fucking hard man.

It's not bad, I only struggle with it online -- offline it's a piece of cake... once you've sorted it once, make sure you lock that in to your muscle memory and you're good to go

lol exactly -- I was agreeing with you on that one... the fact that he uses a character with harder matchups makes him beast -- I was pointing it to emphasize his beastness

Ryu vs Fei Long

I was almost wanting Justin to win since he was using Fei.
But the borg was to strong.

He was also using Viper quite a bit.
There were some definite alternate styles at this comp, the Puerto Rican Balrog was something else :)



Title: Re: Season's Beatings 4 this weekend
Post by: maelgrim on October 19, 2009, 07:14:39 PM

Anyway I think in hindsight (always a wonderful thing :) ) Justin made a mistake in choosing Fei in the Winner vs Winner round.

He would have been better to have picked Balrog or Rufus and even if he lost he would have made it back to the final.

Then he could have sprung Fei taken the first set and gone into the 2nd set with momentum and not have Daigo go away and think about the Fei matchup.

Obviously a dangerous gambit & Justin wasn't to know the initial impact Fei would have. But if he has a time machine thats what he should do  ;D
