You shouldn't have done that. At first i was really having a lot of trouble with Seth and stuff but now Seth is no longer a problem, and i have it for... like a week

And most people online are so cheap / bad it's not even funny, here is the real problem with SF4:

There's no such thing as cheapness in this game. The problem is with you if the opponent is spamming a move and you can't counter it.

 

 

Yes, there IS cheapness, and I didn't said it was a problem, did I? Jesus, stop acting like this

But don't tell me you're freaking happy when the guy waits for you to pick your character, then picks ken (after you've played like 20 kens), and proceeds to JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN JUMP KICK LOW KICK SHORYUKEN the whole goddamned match

Or even freaking worse, a Zangief comes and then it starts LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT LARIAT

AND when they realize you can actually COUNTER this shit, they disconnect

 

I'm not saying i'm a pro, i have like 90 wins out of 130 matches, but this shit is annoying

cheapness is synonymous with fighting games. Many just find trick ways to win instead of actually learning to play. You think those things are bad...ever played an Akuma who only threw fireballs (note that his fire firebals hit 3 times and he can throw them from a jump as well and teleport away if you manage to get close)?

 

 

I did play a few akumas online, yes, i destroyed the majority of then, and i enjoy playing Akuma myself sometimes, mostly because i love his ultra and super (and i still need the super combo trophies)

 

His "3 hits fireball" actually have a fairly big charging time so it isn't really cheap, but i really love it, because when you find a hadouken spammer, throw one at them and they never expect it to pass through their hadoukens and burn them, then they won't know what the hell to do lol

His teleport can trick you good though, good thing i'm a Vega, you can't get away from me :P

I've figured out ways around it myself but I was totally lost the first time I met someone who played like that. The charging time isn't significant because when one goes through, you have the upper hand in the fireball battle till the opponent jumps. I usually play as cammy but haven't played since killzone 2 launched...it's just waaay more fun lol.
