This Week's Update: SFIV

I am a little bit behind on updates as I have been "semi-feverishly" training for the tournament. If you are really into countdown clocks, feel free to click this link that leads to the Evolution 2k webpage: http://evo2k.com/

Looks like I will be in Group 1 of the Tournament Group so i'll be playing as early as 9AM PDT this Friday. I will not have access to internet but if you are lucky you can look out for me on a random live broadcast if I am lucky enough to be grossly outmatched by a named pro in my first match.

Grind Update:

So I finished Balrog(Boxer) Hard Trial 5. Unlike some of the hard trials in SFIV, all of Boxer's Hard Trials are actually practical in matches and are essential to maximizing damage and stun opportunities. I believe having an available repertoire of combos to close out on an opponent is as necessary as it opens up a higher level of understanding for the combat situation. When to do a 6-7 hit combo with a lot of stun versus doing a quick combo into an ultra as well as character specific do's and don'ts all add up to someone's fight IQ.

Goals this Week?

Have fun, practice, study frame data, and try the super armor cancel ultra move that I haven't been able to pull off by accident yet.



Wish me luck you 5 readers!
