    Hi everyone, HMV seems to be having a Street Fighter 4 touney this saturday and I'm going to enter. I feel that I've got a good shot of winning since there isn't (to my knowledge) a strong fighting game scene in Scotland.
     
    So any tips for touneys would be great and if anyone who's really good with any charcter wants to fight with me (I figure sparring with people other than the G2 crowd would be good) drop me a friend request 
     
    GT - chris the mad
     
    And if your there on saturday and you see a dude called Chris playing Honda, cheer me on! Please!

    @JJOR64: Yeah, I've posted a few topic on the forum asking how to get better and it's been a great help. Before that I played El Furete.

    Don't choke!
     
    And don't think of me telling you not to choke right when you're about to be eliminated.

    @lordofultima: Yeah I don't know why but I seem to gravitate towards the lower tier characters like Honda and El Furete. Also can i fight your Akuma, your videos taught me a good amount about him but no substitute for fighting him I guess
     
    @Diamond: What if i thought about choking the other player. I don't think they hae any rules forbidding it.

    @JJOR were you playing in G2 this weekend?  I think i remember your GT and having a tough time vs your honda.  >:|  I fight a handfull of scrubby ass Ryus and my game just goes to shit.  Regardless i thought the GT looked familiar and i know i had a tough time against a specific honda. 
     
    @krazy A lot of it is playing against yourself.  If you know the matchups and keep focused you can do well!  Look for patterns in their play, when people are under a bit of pressure they'll tend to fall back on muscle memory reaction.  Watchout for the new to SF guy who knows how to j.rh > rh with ken, those dudes are dangerous.
    The best skill you can have is losing gracefully, or maybe thats just me, i've had plenty of practice at that!
