That's a pretty shallow reason for wanting 300 life.

Looks like Tecmo Koei is getting serious about promoting DOA5U competitively in Japan. Alongside the recently announced location test dates for the game's arcade version, TK has announced their official tournament for the game. Qualifying rounds for the tournament will take place in different...

To quote from the good book (i.r. Sirlin's Playing to Win). At the end of the day it's the winners who are remembered. Look at MvC2, Justin Wong is often called "God" in that game because he was hands down, the best player in the world. He also used arguably the best team in the game...

They're also announcing an official tournament that will run alongside the locations tests on PS3.

As I've stated before. If you really want to figure out how good or bad your character is, make a match up chart.

But Home is one of those stages that is more like how the stages were in the previous games (i.e. not a 4 sided box with danger zones/destructible objects at the edges).

Honestly didn't know. Yes, but in general, the stages are, as we have already established, pretty much normalized compared to those from previous games. Imagine how lopsided stuff would be if the stages weren't normalized.

There's a limit to how much stage should affect the matchups. I believe what 5 is trying to do is to make it so that the stages don't greatly favor one character or another. This is especially important since, unlike Injustice, the game does not allow both players to make a stage choice. The...

You start by not posting about it outside of the Hayate forums. http://freestepdodge.com/forums/hayate.36/

Not kidding about the physical part. I've seen players nearly collapse in exhaustion during tournaments. Sure it isn't as exhausting as say, a pickup game of basketball, but these things do take a physical toll on you. This is why alot of sponsored players actually do physically prepare...

Depends, character selection is still part of how you approach a game. Knowing how to pick a character is still better than going in and picking someone blind. As the old saying goes "pick who you want, but play to win."

That's because you're most likely not playing good Christies. Online to boot. Tier lists are always based on the assumed highest level of play offline.

Location test next week. Axl and I-No will be playable and maybe a new character as well. http://shoryuken.com/2013/10/25/nex...le-unannounced-characters-possibly-available/

Jakeiho. Against a good Christie, that means she can punish your punish with a JAK stance into a combo even into CB for hundred or so damage or more. Mike Z gave a talk on this when he was making Skullgirls and what he said was that this was flat out lazy balancing. Resorting to this is...

Okay, this has been bothering me for awhile but. Beat 'em ups are a different genre from fighting games. These are beat 'em ups. Fighting games are a different genre altogether.

See, now this is why y'all need to play more fighting games. Generally speaking, the best characters to use to teach newer players to win actually are high tier or top tier characters. Ryu? Ryu's been generally high or top tier in most SFs (hello 9:1 matchups in ST). In games where he isn't...

That's an ignorant and borderline scrubby thing to say. Nobody who seriously wants to win at at tournament wants to have to fight it out ever match. No one wants to have to win from a disadvantage at every match. That's both mentally and physically exhausting. Exhaustion and stress lead to bad...

East Coast needs to step it up. West Coast currently has alot of momentum going for it.
