Really? I guess if I paid any attention to the story I may have noticed it was a girl, but theres SO MUCH FUCKING TEXT it's seriously like a fucking novel. I play a fighting game to fight the mans, not read their horrible stories.

I thought it was a girl at the character select screen, and said to myself "hey this character's cute, I'll use her", but then when I started playing I thought it was a boy and was ashamed.

Sounds like it's time for Perofella.

Nah. The problem with throws is that they have long startup, no range, and a 13f tech window. SFIV has a 7f window and that's too long.

They're 6 frames in SFIV except like Gouken's back through which is 7 if I remember. And you're nuts if you think that's too long.

The bigger thing with throws in this game too is there is an explanation point that goes above your head which is the timing you need for throw escapes. Which would explain the 13frame tech window.

Yeah ARBM you're a crazy person with an opinion like that! Opinions still qualify you for crazy, right?

Enough infighting! Lets fight in game!

If you think that's nuts, what would you say about the maniac on this very forum who opposes the concept of techs altogether.

I'm not sure about that, but I do think the last one into the tech should be soft thrown and take some damage a la ST and Alpha. Someone was faster than the other guy, so that someone should be rewarded. Resetting the match to neutral is lame. Not everyone gets a trophy!
