    Fuck that! I can stop Balrog's jump-in attempt like once out of four times. You have the best jump in in the game. That low hitting punch is literally impossible to punish. "
    Guile has(one of) the best AA in the game. So shhh. "
    Yeah Balrog's jump roundhouse is good because of the angle and jump fierce has deceptively good range but Guile shouldn't have any trouble anti-airing him. Down fierce his j.hk and airthrow far jumpins like j.hp. Ex flash kick if you're feeling yourself I guess.

    " @Jeffsekai: He's right though, jumping fierce and jumping roundhouse are pretty ridiculous to anti-air. It's much easier to low forward whiff -> throw than actually uppercut that j.HK. "
    low forward to lower your hitbox? that isn't a guaranteed throw though right? If you just want to avoid it wouldn't backdash or teleport be better? Akuma seems to have a worse time with srk'ing jump ins because he can't really capitalize off trades like Ryu.

    @AniMoney: It's not guaranteed it's just a good mixup, you land and you're immediately thrown. I don't want to run away every time someone jumps, that is also punishable. A trade uppercut is crap for Akuma, you always go for clean anti-air.

    Haha, whaaat? The issue with Balrog's jump in game is it depends 100% on the distance between Balrog and his opponent when he jumps in. If he is farther away and his attack is going to nick me, he'll most likely flat out overpower my anti air, or we'll trade. It's usually the former. If he is closer and it looks like he's landing on top of me, I can usually anti air at least four out of five times. The tricky jump ins can also apply to the shotos as well, even Sakura. If they are farther away we might trade, or they might beat me, but if they are closer to jumping on top of me than nicking me, I can usually knock them.

    @Scooper: Haha, it is all good. I am just glad you got to experience the pain and torment I had to deal with when you were hitting me with those sonic boom -> sweep shenanigans. There is no worse feeling then the feeling that you have absolutely 0 control over a situation, and that "combo" in lag is unbeatable. Tis the past.

    My Giantbomb fighting record so far.
     
    vs. Kawagawaga  0 - 18.  Yes he beat me 18 times in a row.  In one sitting.  I dont know who got tired first, me getting my ass kicked or him totally dominating me.  Thanks for keeping it fresh and beating me with all the different characters and not just one.
     
    vs. Da Stang  0 - 10.  He destroyed me. Duh
     
    Obviously these guys are in another league than me.  I love a good challenge but I would also like to have a chance every now and then.  For my ego.  Looking for some self proclaimed sucky players.  Hit me up.

    @Stang: Ok well then maybe im loosing it.  I know it was someone from Giant bomb and Im sure the first person I played was Kawagawaga because I remember us talking about him being from Canada.  I know the second person was from giantbomb cause we were talking about it.  Whoever it was, maybe they will speak up.  I cant look it up cause im at work.

    I just re-purchased this after unloading my PS3 version a couple of months ago. I bought the PC version since it was only $20 on the Windows Marketplace this past weekend. If any PC gamers wanna play, my gamertag is Evil Ratard. I am average at best, but enjoy the hell out of the game. I usually only play with Sagat and Sakura, but I am starting to learn other fighters as well.

    @Stang: GG to you, sir. I was holding decent for the first couple of matches, and then I just lost my shit and couldn't get any momentum afterwards. I didn't help that I was gripping my control like I was hanging on for dear life and so I couldn't through Sonic Booms to save my life. Regardless, GGs. Also, I hope my M. Bison slide spam at the end didn't irk you too much. :p

    @Napalm: haha, it is all good. I played like 75 games before we played so I was going a bit insane. I will post in the match thread the vid of you hitting me with the wake up ultra because I called you a naughty name, it was funny. Only thing funnier was when I did that random ass ultra with Sagat that somehow hit you when you jumped back, I don't know what the hell happened there. Good games.

    Yeah, I'll admit it.  SFIV is the worst fighting game I've ever played and even though I tried to keep up with everybody, it proved to be an utter waste of my time.  I'm also planning to get rid of my fightstick because I no longer have any need for it.  I vastly prefer FPS games anyways.

    @demontium: I'm not the best on the forums, I'm pretty sure my performance at FRXIII proves that. Even if I was, that doesn't exactly amount to anything. Also, FFXIII is mediocre in general, so I might as well get achievements out of it and not your silly trophies that mean nothing to me.

    Trophies are shit, and I love achievements way more, but the game is great. DON'T LOCK THIS THREAD JUST BECAUSE I POSTED IN IT. Fuck you btw.

    @demontium: Yeah, but grow up a bit. I doubt you would call me any of these names in person, joking or not. I am too old for that nonsense.
