Nice seeing you again, Duckator. As usual, I wish I could play all of the characters like you do; my Sakuya is especially horrible, maybe I should invest some time into being less bad. You seem like you're still pretty sharp, and man, was I getting frustrated when my dial-A with Meiling was randomly getting dropped! Our Sakuya/Meiling was really, really close too. Playing you always reminds me of just how pitiful my defense is, though; you pretty much block everything I throw at you, and then when you retaliate, I decide that the front of your foot is a good place to put my face.

Anyways, good games.

>>3923113
Good games Guy. You've gotten a lot better since I last played you or maybe it's been so long that I forgot how good you were before.
That Sakuya / Meiling match was great, especially when I tried to punish your flying kick and got hit with a huge damage combo.

Well shit, I just get back and find out a Guymatch already finished.

Oh well, hostan anyway:

GGs 3p, you really do know what you're doing after all.
Now I'm not one to BAAAAAWWWWW IT'S MY CONTROLLER'S FAULT constantly (read: more than I already do) but this thing is really starting to show its age; when every single BE turns into STOP BLOCKING AND RUN INTO BULLET INSTEAD and moves turn into other moves things roll downhill fast. I'll get that checked out before running this again.

That's it for my whinefest though; overall I think your playstyle is pretty ballin' with air reversals and such, which is something you don't see often in the scrub den of /jp/ or the DP ONLY tourneyfag hole of the IRC; I'm surprised someone this solid slipped by me this whole time.

Oh well, maybe it's the finals. Gotta take a break.

Your Marisa is a bit strange in that you don't finish your aircombos with default 214C very often, if at all, and you also use the alt 236 laser. Alice vs Marisa had some good moments, though I noticed you didn't destroy my dolls all that often, whereas with Reimu it was like you were aiming at the poor things.

So, naturally, this comic came to mind.

I'd gladly play against you, but I suck terribly at fighting games.

>>3924218
Good games, Endue. Man, playing a person like you just goes to show me how much I really need to start learning how to block and how to space. My spacing with Alice is horrible, and that Reisen match where I JUST BARELY whiffed with 6A instead of hitting you while you were blocking completely screwed me over. Your Tenshi is pretty fierce; unlike mine, it actually has a little bit of variety instead of forcing the same stuff until I hit. Good games, hopefully my flowchart Meiling didn't bother you too much.

>>3924710

GGs. Cirno is my only main, I have no idea how to play with the other characters. You should try specting other Meilings, don't let your opponent put a distance from you. Move around him, never stop pushing. Meiling is hard to master but see Guy and his flowchart.

>>3924710

>Youmu's spellcard ignoring Perfect Maid

Also, I laughed at the two counters in a row during Typhoon.

>>3924738

That is my typical MO but it seemed like at a certain point I just couldn't do anything to stop what you threw at me and I couldn't seem to work out my close range zoning 'till it got to that point where I just threw out things randomly in frustration, so rather than continuing to make an ass of myself I tried to play more defensively but to no avail. I've been thinking about whether I should put more time into Reimu or Tenshi until I can get my brain to realize that I am not playing 3S and that Meiling is not Chunners.

>>3924915
While a defensive Meiling can be done, I'd personally recommend against it. Meiling can have such a great pressure game if she's aggressive that it'd almost be a waste to lose it just to play it a bit more safe. I'm sure you'll be fine, though, she just takes a little while to get used to, since she doesn't have very good bullet cover at all.

>>3924625
Good games Duckator! I'm finding Remi incredibly difficult to manouvre because of her short hops and limited air graze distance. It seems like as she moves she's vulnerable to melee from both ground and air and an easy target for projectiles in the air. Thanks for letting me practice on you, it looks like I need to learn how to make approaches on her before any comboing or pressuring.

>>3924841
Haha yeah. I'm pretty familiarized in how to deal with counters under most situations, so it was actually to his detriment to have used it. I had a few misinputs resulting in me triggering them such as the low kick but the dual counter during Typhoon came as a result of being overly aggressive and wanting to finish him quickly.

>>3924625
Good games Rabbit, your Remi still needs some work.
Try to abuse her C bullets more since her B bullets are somewhat useless now. They're great for getting closing distance because of their high priority. And try doing a 214 after a knockdown once in a while to keep your pressure up.

Oh, and look past the first page before starting a netplay thread.

>>3924951

Yeah pressure Meiling is what I really want after all I just feel like my reaction time is too slow and once the opponent gains ground on me I'm too frantically trying to graze to mount a decent offensive, let alone not fall right into their trap when I do close said distance. I don't know if it's my own shortcomings or if I'm just doing something wrong.

Anyway, EC hostan'.

>>3925648
The Yukari flowchart is the original. Uh, as original as being a parody of the Ken flowchart, that is.

>>3925697
I modeled my Meiling and Youmu one after the Sacchin flowchart from Melty Blood, which in turn was modeled after the Ken Flowchart. I would've made a Yukari one, but couldn't decide if STOPSIGN or PARASOL SPIN would be the focus.

Anyways, rehostan:

There isn't only one focus (which makes this flowchart not-so-humorous), but this is pretty close to the truth sometimes.

>>3925719
Well, I fucking suck with Alice. Despite fighting a flowchart Suika, I'll just fall for the same shit over and over again while simultaneously failing my spacing and inputting the wrong moves. Also, HURF DURF TYPHOON/FOG MYSTIC PURPLE POWER, oh what's that, blocking everything? In comes the loliball! Jesus fuck, I know people are weak against Suika, but I brought this down to a whole different level.

Next time we fight, I'll promise to not fall for the same shit over and over again.

>>3925719
Good games Guy! I was absolutely floored that one match were you out damaged my MPP and won. You played Alice pretty well in the later games although I get the feeling I'd be pretty safe if I turtled in the corner.

>>3926014

*MISSING purple power, goddamn, I'm failing even at spellcard names right now.

>>3926015
Alice's corner work is shit. I can make you block, but I have no way to break your orbs unless you decide to block a bunch of shit like 5B/2B/236B and so on. And you'd have to block them a lot, too.

>>3926014
Haha, awe. I thought I was playing Suika somewhat creatively. I did get to try out low/high guard crushes, throws in the corner/wakeup and bouncing B bullet pressure. I'm curious how close I am to flowchart in your opinion. Also, I'd never MPP during Typhoon since its too easy to escape but rather I did hit you with her unblockable horn quite a few times for match enders.

>>3926062
Obviously I'm exaggerating at least a little bit, but you still have (far away) 6B 6B 6C 66C (close, after knockdown) 5C 5AAA (blocked, back off a bit) 5C 66C 623B 6B 5C 66C (back off) 6B 6B 6C. The less flowcharty stuff comes when you've trapped me in the corner.

A lot of it's just me being frustrated.

>>3926171
Wasn't accurate enough. Here you go.

>>3926171
Oh hey, I was watching the replay and I'm curious to know why you forward dash during MPP punches? From these threads I heard you could backdash the punches with their inherent invincibility frames. I always wanted to try it out.

>>3926256
Most of the time I was panicking, to be honest. I don't think I've ever seen someone get MPP as fast as Rabbit got it against me. But, now that you remind me, I'll have to try to remember to practice backdashing against MPP. I've done it to get invincibility frames against other moves, but I haven't done it against the giant loli yet. My timing is still really bad with it, though, so I'd probably lose (not that it would make much of a difference with my Alice, zing!)

You presumed wrong. The SWR/12.3 patches on the SWRSWiki are up-to-date.

What you should have asked for was the Hisoutensoku v1.02 patch. I believe it is no longer on Tasofro's main page, but that's the latest version which supported fish decks.

That's not that bad. Getting hit out of close range always due to a mistake, but there are worse things.

According to the wiki, in order to spectate, one has to join a match already in progress, but since I can't read moonrunes, how can I tell if there is one? My current connection is too unreliable for me to play against people.

>>3929392
When you input someone's IP, you're given two choices. Choosing the one on the right will allow you to spectate without trying to fight the host, whereas choosing the one on the left will have you fight the host, unless he's already fighting someone, in which case you will spectate.

>>3929415
Thanks, I've just been assuming that the left was something like 'continue' and the right was 'cancel'. The right option has always kicked me back to the menu, even when I had a stable connection; perhaps the person was no longer hosting at that time.

>>3929260
I am experimenting, trying to make her seem not-so-terrible to me, but it ain't working. She doesn't have any of the stuff I like. Though I played around with some other alts after our match, and I think I may have figured something out. I just need to actually learn how to do things with Sanae, and stop playing her like I'm playing someone else. I have this reluctance to 66C with a character, but Sanae's is actually really good. Next time, I will Luigi flutter kick you up and down the stage.

Good games I guess, 3p. I'm sure that you're a much better player than I am. I couldn't help but feel that you were sandbagging against me; if that is the case, could you please not?

76.29.15.231:10800
US Midwest

>>3929668
Good games, Lurker.

I guess I'll work on being better at defending, though I truthfully have an incredibly hard time with it all. Sorry if I've bored you guys up till now, I guess~ Anyway, to get me started out, at what point right after a jump or a dash can you block? I've been dash-blocking and jump-blocking trying to bait stuff, but I end up getting stuffed more often than not.

>>3929668
Okay, that babies -> level 5 was the best thing I've ever done as Suika, or possibly the best thing I've ever seen done as Suika since I never seem to be spectating when somebody lands a massacre.

Now that that's out of the way, superarmor Firepunch didn't work as well against you as I initially thought it was because you were using Alice as first and not attempting to rush me. Ah well, it's still a fun move, and it helped me a lot against your Tenshi.

Sorry about quitting on the first Remilia match, I avoid playing on the SDM stage as I find it disorienting. I FFF'd several times against your Cirno after randomly dashing into her C over and over. Alice was a pain too since most of the times I tried to approach I just got 6A'd. My Remi is still pretty weak, all I've been doing is random j.2As, rekkas and dinner forks and hoping for the best. My Suika needs work too, at the moment it's pretty much just random firepunch + babies + j.5a + 6b. You know, like most Suikas. Except I'm too dumb to use fireworks.

And uh, I don't have many comments on the rest of the matches (and for the ones I did I forgot them). You seemed kind of rusty with Patchouli, though. And I had no idea you could use Alice's level 4 doll sword thing in the air.

Also, pic very related.

>>3930198
Also loliball -> 623. I forgot that.

>>3930198
I think your Suika is actually pretty good (against me). Firepunch will get me most of the time because I'm stupid and always have to be attacking, and loliball will hit me regardless of whether I'm actually baiting it or not. You seemed to have a little bit of trouble using MPP, but the times you landed massacre were ridiculous. Can you do the 5-card grab in the middle of someone's dial-A? Because that's what it seemed like.

And yeah, my Patch is really, really bad. I don't like the way she moves (and I'm horrible at moving her), and I can't do anything but j.5C, 6C -> 236C, and various combos off of dial-A. As for Alice, well, I'm still having a ridiculously hard time with her spacing. It feels like every time I want a f.5A I either get TOO far away for it to do any good, or it ends up being a normal 5A, which proceeds to whiff. Also, my horrible flowchart "wait for them to do something stupid, 6A, and then set up dolls", unfortunately, I can't think of any other safe way to set them up other than stuff like that. Alice has some nice stuff, though, I just wish it were easier to connect 6A after 5AAAA.

>>3930250
I used dunk, not massacre. Massacre is her grab where she slams the opponent into the ground three times.

I don't actually use MPP that much, most of the times I used it against you I meant to use something else. You can land dunk pretty much any time there's an opening in somebody's attacks provided you're blocking, but it won't work if they expect it and stop to block.

Patchouli's movement isn't half as bad as Utsuho's, Remilia's and (of course) Suwako's, who are just kind of awkward. But I don't play her so I can't really say anything.

Good games, Harlaown. I was trying to be more mindful of blocking, and tried to block each attack, and yet I would still eat 66C without fail. This is gonna take a lot of work. Your name sounds familiar for some reason, though.

Anyways, rehostan.

>>3930945
ggs, Guy. I'd keep playing but my Meiling deck is so awful it's making me cry every time I look at my current cards, so I'm going to go fix that.

>>3930945
Good games, Lurker. Playing Meiling without the Sky Dragon Kick feels REALLY weird, and my defense doesn't seem to be improving no matter how much I concentrate on it. ;_;

Not a bad Meiling you have there, considering you don't play her very much.

>>3930504
Good games again Nipah. That Cirno is still pretty kickin'. I'm finding that Remi has very poor melee range and priority and lacks chicken blocking on ground dashes. It's incredibly difficult to make an approach, especially when you have icecar and 66C to pierce my cover. Also, I lol'd at the repeated snowballs against Youmu thing you were doing.

>>3930504

GGs Bunny box.

Dat Youmu. Instant morale drop warrantied. I felt pretty confident after Remi then...

Youmu running into katamaris was quite amusing. At least I got 1 against Youmu even though I think you weren't trying.

>>3931183
Yeah haha! The Katamaris were too funny. I ran some of my alt decks but a counter/reflector is absolutely useless against cirno unless she uses icecar. The other time was a passive boost/rushdown deck that warrants a change in playstyle but man those iceballs plug over-aggression.

>>3931245
Okay uh, now that I've calmed down, ggs. I was being pretty stupid against Youmu (hurr blocking just about everything wrong) though.

Still, those Suika mirrors were FFFF. It's irritating when the game takes my commands as something else a couple times, but when I lose an entire match just because I can't use the move I need to it's incredibly rage inducing.

You really don't need to say anything, because most of the time when players on /jp/ rage, they're raging over how bad/how many mistakes they're making. I guess you could call it venting?

It's all in good fun, though.

GGs, im done for today. see ya next time /jp/

>>3931565
Aw fuck, game crashed. Very good games there Guy.

>>3931261
Looks like we disconnected. Ah well, good games, Tenma. I got a little frustrated when the weather changed to Spring Haze right when I activated my spellcard, causing your attack to graze right through it. This defense thing still isn't going very well, and trying to play Meiling without the Sky Dragon Kick feels like trying to play with one hand tied behind my back; I guess it goes to show how much I rely on it.

75.79.143.22:10800 West Coast
I've rehosted like 5+ times today

>>3931261
Looks like the game crashed again, it seems to do that a lot whenever I play Suwako for some reason. I've got to go do some other shit anyway though.

Good games lolimew, felt pretty even most of the time. My Utsuho is so goddamn rusty it's ridiculous and it doesn't help that I accidentally selected the same shitty deck twice.

Im watching these matches, and I gotta say it's nice to see your Youmu back in action LoliMew. I see you've improved and cover your landings with B and Okizeme with 2C. Don't forget you can stuff jump ins with 2C though. And is that a AAA 3[A] I see? Love it

>>3932183
ggs LoliMew. You need to be less reckless, it's kind of sad that I can nearly beat your Youmu just by spamming firepunch without paying attention knowing that you'll run into it.

Thanks for the Remi mirrors, though. I'm still trying to learn her, so sorry if I seemed spammy/scrubby/etc.

>>3932183
gg. I always had a problem against Suika's Fire Punch and overall Yukari. I was hoping my 5B and poking would beat Suika.

>>3932293
Thanks, but I don't feel like I improved at all. It has been a while since I played and I'm just doing everything by instinct.

>>3932340
It's not really recklessness, more that I have no idea what to do. I don't face many Suikas.

And your Remi is better than mine. Sometimes I have no clue what to do with her, I only started using her just because I love Vamprie Kiss so much

GGs Guy, looks like you really got the better of me this time. Probably good that we DC'd, I really have to leave anyway. Those Alice mirror matches were pretty fun.

Any special reason? You might have stomped my utsu with aya but I was going to switch to my good characters soon.

Poor first impression. Win or lose, I play to enjoy the game, and those were extremely stupid matches to be a part of. I'll take the chance that somebody else might show up.

>>3932954
I usually need time to warm up after not playing for a few weeks, so sorry if I don't automatically play perfect games.

>>3932992
No one asked for perfect games, but I don't see how "warm-up" equates to "play extremely stupid on purpose". It was boring, and the second match proved you weren't even trying.

No, the second one just proved I'd not played against aya in ages and never when using Utsuho. Still, I probably won't try to join another game you host again, so you should be happy.

>>3932806
That game at the end was terrible. Good games, Rabbit, as you may have noticed my Meiling is significantly worse without the Sky Dragon Kick in her deck. There were some very ridiculous events in those matches, foremost among them being your bloody 2 card spell with Suika doing about 1/3rd of my life bar in damage, and me somehow catching a stray bit of your Patchy's bloody 4-card reversal. But I swear to God, if I do 236 with Tenshi when I mean to do 623 one more fucking time, I'll probably burst a blood vessel.

This was pretty much me during that Suika match where your 2-card did way too much damage.

>>3932806
Ja, good games Guy. I really enjoyed our Remi/Alice matches. They were pretty even later on and I think I started to learn her moves bit by bit. It looks like to me though that you've totally figured out how to handle my giant Suika and Patchy spam.

>>3933244
Your Remi plays with a really weird hit-and-run style. It really throws me off, so I end up just trying to get dolls out so I can control some space.

Not that I'm any good at spacing with Alice. Our Reisen/Suika matches are always strange. Either I trap you in the corner and pull off a victory, or you hurrdurr me in the middle and win without very much trouble at all.

>>3933269
Ah, I think the hit and run Remi is exacerbated just by facing Alice as well as difficulties in her approach. You don't know how terrified I am of her 6A, so if I ever land somewhere in the so called ping zone I'll block and back off. Also, doll bomb sc cards, I feel like you have them ready for every combo. Do you have 8 in your deck?

>>3933288
You don't know how terrified I am of whiffing 6A, lol. And yeah, I have 8 doll bombs in my deck: 4 Artful Sacrifice and 4 Return Inanimate, I prefer them over the Shanghai/Hourai dolls.

>>3933216

Not sure what happened to you there Tenma, but GGs. Ugh block dropping makes me rage on netplay; not to take anything away from the games you won, that is. Those were a lot of fun and pretty competitive.

>>3933301

Out of curiosity Guy, can you expound on your reasoning for that at all? Personally so far I've preferred using Shanghai/Hourai dolls because they combo well with random 6A wallslams, which I feel like I get a lot more consistently than dial A combos.

I keep a couple Artful Sacrifice dolls in my decks usually as well, mainly for speeding up the weather, but generally I prefer the other ones.

Buh. There is noone around to observe.

>>3933339
Artful Sacrifice because it has amazing damage return for its card cost, and Return Inanimate because it's air unblockable (they're caught blocking C dolls or a 22C trap in the air, and you can sometimes peg them with it before they're able to graze). I suppose I can make another deck to give Shanghai/Hourai another shot, though, if you can nail it after a 6A wallbounce. I seem to be getting less and less of those, though.

Personally, I probably get dial-As just as much as 6A wallslams, if not more. But 3700 damage off a dial-A -> Artful Sacrifice -> j.6A (I think that was with 2 control rods?) is definitely really nice for only one spellcard.

GG tenma, you have some pretty sweet combos, sorry about all the lag, my internet is kinda ass.

>>3933318
Sorry I'm a little late on this, I had to do something real quick. By the time I was back you were gone and when I rehosted someone else just happened to join. I really wish this game had some kind of in game chat so I could take a damn piss without fear of confusing whoever I'm playing. Good games again.

Good games to whoever I just played, and I apologize for forgetting your name. I think my 12.3 really hates it when I play Suwako, but I'm off to play Melty Blood in a bit anyway.

I'm gonna take a break, I couldn't do anything I wanted to at all (that 5AA 2B j7 j.2B 3D j.5A 5AA 2B 5C 236C combo still refuses to be done by me; especially the 2B j7 j.2B 3D j.5A part, holy crap). Good games, Nipah; be careful about relying too much on 66C, I was punishing you after some of your blocked ones.

>>3936521

Frustration. To resume all those matches.
Most of them just when you were about to die, I would always fail to deliver the last blow, missing and followed by you pulling those 3k combos.

GGs Guy. Wasn't expecting Tenko, I don't play much against her.

>>3923912
Sorry about that bullshit, Guy. First, my network blipped. Then my home had a brief power outage. Then I power on my computer and the motherboard starts giving me beep codes. Then it decides to enter a reboot cycle. Now I'm trying to move all of my data elsewhere so I can reformat the thing. Pain in the fucking ass...

>>3923669

GGs. Adahn, you should use your cards more often. They would get stacked a lot in your hand.

Reisen always confused me, I guess I have to play against her more.

>>3936648
I'm sorry if you think that's a good way to play Cirno, but always alternating 66A is going to get punished way too much by anyone who cares, and I steadily lost interest as you continued to do exactly that even after Reisen easily punished a lot of those. Try learning to use other moves; playing by a flow chart can't be terribly fun.

her j.2a in particular is interesting.

>>3936730
Reisen is pretty simple - just toss out a fast melee type attack as she goes into any attack animation, and you'll be able to catch her. If you're too far away to melee, just dash or block depending on what she's doing and then punish.

>>3936648
gg Saje. Wish we had another Youmu Vs Komachi match though. Your Tenshi is the meanest one I ever met, seriously a thousand times better than mine. I was thinking of her using her but I would be too embarassed.

>>3936745
I do believe you replied to the wrong person. I only just finished playing my first match as Cirno today and I barely touch 66A.

>>3936648
GGs Lolimew. The number of fans, whether it be attack, skill, or spell, that I got hit by was terribly saddening. Every time I saw the spellcard coming I would think, "Oh yeah! Fanspin! Lemme just jump over and OOF!" Your Youmu could do with some better mix-up and pressure, though your mid-game is pretty solid. After 5AA in the corner, don't just 3[A] every time. Mix in 6[A] because that punishes low-block or go for 5B bullets if your opponent is bad at seeing holes in your blockstring but good at blocking your mix-ups. Thanks for the games, t'was fun.

>>3936866
My Tenshi is wildly variable. There are days and opponents I destroy with her and there are days and opponents I get destroyed by. The thing to watch for is when I go from 2B to HJC9 j.2B in the corner. That string is very hard to pull off correctly and the slightest error will allow you to simply run through. This is exacerbated by my one track mind which never tells me to, "Fuck the j.2B, just 623B to punish the graze!"

My connection must be shitty or I must be doing something wrong because I cannot connect to any of these IPs posted... Are you guys using Hamachi or the network connection in game?

Unless otherwise specified, we all play using the included netplay feature. It's tough to diagnose the issue you're having without a little more info. Possibilities include:

-Your game isn't up to date. The current version for Soku is 1.03. You can download it from:
http://www.tasofro.net/touhou123/download.html
or
http://swr.mizuumi.net/stuff/th123_update_103.exe
-You're selecting IPs that are no longer hosting
-You're selecting IPs that are currently in matches, but because you don't read moonrunes you don't know this. If after inputting the IP you get a "Yes/No" choice, that means someone joined before you did and you may spectate if you so desire.
-You're inputting the IP incorrectly. Copy the entire thing to your clipboard, including the ":XXXXX", and choose the option two slots above "Exit". Option 5 in the 2nd image in the attached image (this is from SWR, but nothing has changed in Soku)
-If you're using ZoneAlarm as a firewall, make sure it's set to allow Soku to access the network and the internet.

>>3936977

Yeah, sorry for being vague, to be honest I thought I patched it to 1.03, thats why I was having problems. I was still on 1.01 and didn't even realize it. Must've done something wrong in the process. Re-patching and joining in. Thanks :D

GGs Duckator, that was fun. I definitely wish I would play Meiling the way you do; that corner rushdown was crazy. Your Patchouli mix-ups were really creative, too. I'll be going over some of the replays to see if I can figure out your tricks.

>>3936907
Good games.
I can't believe we got 3 typhoons that last game.

>>3936886
I usually never do 6A because there is surprisingly a lot of players who get wrong blocked from 3A. I still gotta figure out when to use 5B during my 5A combos.

I think I will try that when I use Tenshi. Seriously my Tenshi sucks major ass.

Looks like you're pretty popular Guy. I haven't been able to get a match against you today yet since someone always joins first.

The drop-off from Meirin, Tenshi, and Cirno to your other secondaries is... shockingly large..

Jesus Christ Guy is a beast. Then again it's really my first day playing lol. GG Guy, hope I didn't bore ya too much :D

>>3937215
Good games, Resident51. Be careful about air-teching repeatedly in the corner; I was able to continuously punish you for free instead of just ending the combo and having you fall to the ground.

>>3937370

Good to know. I am playing this fighter completely wrong like it was Guilty Gear. I need to teach myself to actually use more of the ranged attacks instead of just rushing in and trying to beat everyone to death. As with everything, practice practice practice.

>>3937384
I love Guilty Gear so much, but going from GG to SWR or going from SWR to GG is so goddamn weird. The grazing and the combo mechanics really make it hard to go from one to the other, so good luck with that! Baiken and Chipp were probably my favorites to play as, with Slayer close behind.
