AE 2012 Stream Commentary Thread

AAs in SF4......................... sigh

Komatik

That was depressing to watch. "Yo, I heard you like bs so we put bs in your bs."
EDIT: Was @Gonza vs. MBR match from Dreamhack. Goddamnit Fuerte sucks all enjoyment from playing and watching SF4 from me.

HNIC Mike

there's not gen's in those areas either. you got a couple in cali, and thats about it.

he's just a character thats going to sneak you no matter where youre from. and he's good on top of that.

this is what happens when a character is slept on super hard since forever

Veserius

Evil Rahsaan used to play Gen... but yeah northeast is pretty empty now. People don't really seem keen on AE in general.

Cali has Kane, Nu, and Yeb.

I played him in a set online like 2 weeks ago. He's still around.

Emanuelb

Man, I want to see more of that Dudley. Did he qualified already ? , wow, good match.

HNIC Mike

vega confirmed for worst mirror

otori

Annoying vega is that guy from yesterday that beat the female team? Hahaha glad he's going along with it, dude pissed me off from watching only, can't imagine playing him.

How do you get counterhit when you're +10 frames?

I honestly think she was trying to safeball fei but her spacing is just that bad.

Daigo confirmed for Saiyan.

or italian from jersey

Is ryan hunter still involved in fighting games and is he playing? Need more cody

otori

Revival of charge characters. Kinda miss viper now (no not really lol)

HNIC Mike

why does chen keep talking about cammy neutral jumps vs fei.

neutral jumps arent a really viable strat anyway. reaction chicken wings and standing roundhouse eat those up

Veserius

Depends on range and what character. Blanka neutral jump normals beat chicken wings for instance, and he's small with long reach so he's out of roundhouse range.

I don't know how cammy neutral jump normals interact with that though.

Complain about him saying claw ultra does no damage as it does a 400 damage chunk.

Emanuelb

Wow, the best Fei in Usa is a kid. Good stuff.

Emanuelb

A Ken player, now that's a rarity. And a winning one, to boot.

Momochi back with Akuma?

tony not using those optimal shoto combos :(

looks like daigo learned the secrets though

Infil

Momochi has used both Akuma and Cody this tournament? Is he just trying to counterpick some bad matchups or something? I haven't been watching, who did he use Akuma against?

I guess this is what happpens from playing hundreds of games with Kazunoko and Dashio. Hes looking better today. Losing to FChamp awakened his saiyan blood

He started Akuma against Bala's Abel. Bala took the second game and seemed to put a little scare into him. He then switched to Cody and closed out a great match that was probably too good for early pools.

The matches I've caught since then he's used Cody from the start, but I may have missed something.

- MCZ|Daigo vs. EG|Justin Wong


Tomorrow :O

MachoRhombus

Also, Chi-Rithy vs Dieminion and Sabin vs FChamp for hot Sim on Sim action.

:eek:

Emanuelb

One more chance for dieminion to redeem himself and prove to the world Cammy-Guile is NOT in Cammy 's favor.
Honestly, i'm really excited by Min-Rapalas match - how many times you have a chance to watch a T Hawk-Dudley in top 32 at a major ? Hope it's streamed.

Btw, AE should be on stream 2, right ?

Vulpes

Man, SC5 looks interesting. And surprisingly not just because of Kayane.

Komatik

Yeah, RTD's Mitsurugi seems godlike. All that midrange spacing ability just seems delicious... and I don't have a console. This is dire.

Julpero

This must be the first Rose mirror I've seen in a tournament ever. If we get to see FChamp vs. Arturo Dhalsim mirror my head'll explode.

Edit: If this goes to the last round I hope they decide the winner by a Rose-ball match.

Stress

kbrads cammy in there over onlinetony

input shortcuts on blast

HNIC Mike

i just got home. the hell's up with the stream(s)

Xgrayninja

I'd really like to see FChamp switch mains. He's godlike with Sim, but the character just isn't very good at this stage in SFIV's life. There's no way around that. At the very least, he should really pickup a second character to cover Sim's myriad of bad matchups.

Sharin

I was surprised he didn´t play seth against sabin.

yeah, i got a friend who trys to main sim alone. gets blown up in so many matches.

Well Vega had no claw, and a mask. Lowest damage combination.

W/ claw and mask, 450. W/out claw, 405. W/o claw and mask, 450. W/o mask, 495.

EDIT: So yeah Jchen is wrong, Vega's ultra 2 does perfect damage. 450 is great

Emanuelb

Oh boy, Hawk vs Dudley...

Xgrayninja

That was such a great set. Rasales played so solid, it just happened that Min got the better of him in a few key mixup situations.
