    Your "true" ranking/skill level

    Right now I'll give myself an A- I make bad choices more often than I care to admit. For example I'll throw out a juggle combo that only works on lightweights on a heavy. I know not to do that but, shit, it happens sometimes when I'm not completely keyed in. Or maybe I'll counter mid on a...

    Good game, Bad game Online/Offline thread

    Bad Games to: Repoman and Accurate. Those two ain't shit. Good Games to: Randall Cunningham, Denzel Washington, Jamie Foxx and all the other people I played last night at the 27th annual "Black Leaders Summit" and big shout outs to Lenny Kravitz who they wouldn't let in - keep fightin for...

    I named the creme de la creme. There are more but we are early into the games competitive lifecycle (2 majors deep) and between majors and minors those 4 names stick out as people who bring it online and offline at a high level. Theres more and come 2013 you'll see that. Till then, be...

    Told everyone who I cared to tell i wasn't making that one 3 weeks before hand. Also, heres some good news for you - I'm not leaving the south for DOA tournaments unless the winner is getting broke off at least a grand. That has nothing to do with why I didn't make NEC - I didn't make NEC...

    I traveled for DOA4, won money in DOA4 and will travel for 5. Fact is Junior you're trading paragraphs with the heir to the IPL crown. And since I'm not an elitist like many people on this site I'm not even going to stoop to your level and bring up the fact that you've accomplished nothing...

    Are holds used by everyone who plays or only skilled players?

    The point is that theres too much guessing for your taste in DOA. My point is that if you take the holds out of the stun it is a slipperly slope that leads to this being VF with holds and If I want to play VF with holds I'll go play VF with a character that has holds. So if you want...

    Are holds used by everyone who plays or only skilled players?

    Can holds be used most of the time? Yes. Can you beat every individual who plays this game with the same strategy? No. Does everyone have some kind of bad habit thats just waiting to be exploited? You betcha. Do the best laid plans of mice and men often go astray? Robert Burns said it back...

    Are holds used by everyone who plays or only skilled players?

    The topic at hand is wether or not stuns should be taken out of the game on the pretense that without them it would fit more neatly into the paradigm of what a competitive fighting game should be. But is this about making the game "Fit In" or making it competitive - because as it stands right...

    Are holds used by everyone who plays or only skilled players?

    No I understand perfectly that I'm playing DOA and if I want to play something else then I will. But I like DOA - and I like Tekken, and VF, and SF, and KOF. . .and I like Fighting Vipers, and Rage of the Dragons, and Evil Zone. . .but I really don't like Rumble Fish and I don't like Killer...

    Its the end of the road for CrazySteady, his BFF DaKillah and their voyeristic obsession with watching me play, clogging up my rooms but never playing.

    Fighting game FUNDAMENTALS 1) Blocking 2) Spacing 3) Punishment DOA has all of those things and if you cannot do all of them at a high level you're not going to be beating upper echelon players once everyone is familiar with the entire roster. As an example spacing in KOF is slightly...

    Sport is sport. Football =/= Baseball Chess =/= Poker Tekken =/= DOA and yet all are played competitively - look up the definition of sport, sport.

    Are holds used by everyone who plays or only skilled players?

    The game isn't all guessing - reaction speed is a factor and proper punishment always equals damage. You could go a whole round without holding and if the opponent doesn't catch onto the fact that you're not countering and just SEing you'll probably not eat a CB that round. Watch real sports...

    Are holds used by everyone who plays or only skilled players?

    Depends on who you're fighting. Against certain characters you're better off looking for the launcher or CB ( Busa, Koko, Bass and any grappler.) And if you know that charcter you're fighting against and you understand whats Slow escapable and what isn't and then you could play the way Havik...
