Where's the love for Carl? I used to main Tao but I love the challenging characters. Carl + corner = love. 

Unlike other fighters I don't have a main for this game. I never found anyone character I wanted to stick with so I juggle around a lot. 

Yeah, I did sound of like a little whiny biatch, which was not really my intention. That matchup is just so frustrating when you *know* that if you go and touch the D or C button (Not techincally true, since if you read it right - 5D will beat sledge due to the invincible frames) you're in a world of hurt.
 
I do like the mind game aspect of the matchup tho, it's second guessing from start to finish for that fight, this particular matchup just goes to show just how gorram unsafe most of Noels moves are. If I want any kind of damage done on Tager, I *need* that 3C or 5D to go through. Guess the one nice thing about this matchup is the fact that Tager is a fatty and pulling 4 rep haidas on his red hide is easy once you get past the "I gotta land a 3C that he can just sledge through".
 
It's a challenge, a mighty one. Frustratring as it may be at times, it's still fun to play against real competent Tagers. Before you play against a Tager one cant say that they know what a 'quick finish to the match' means.
 
EDIT: also not really in the spirit of the thread, so I'll stop here :)

In ct because I had good timing and no patience for combos I mained Hakumen. Now, I'm better at the game in cs and still main Hakumen, he's just plain fun to play (and one of the few characters I CAN play as without dying every time)

I played Tao the most in CT, but was garbage. I guess Tager is my CS main. I'm still not great, but this game is amazing and I can't stop playing it. 
 
Edit: I'm also crazy hype for Platinum.
