Hehe. Try Street Fighter Alpha 2 or Garou: Mark of the Wolves. I found those two quite lenient and easy enough for people who don't play Fighters much to get through.Hatta wrote:Win? In a fighting game? That'll be the day.
Balrog is hard to play with because the only move your opponent needs to have mastered in order to beat you is the foot sweep.Kevman wrote:For whatever reason I gravitate towards boxers in fighing games. I like beasting it with Balrog/M. Bison in SF2 and 4, TJ Combo in KI, etc.
If I get too frustrated I always fall back on the alternating pattern of holding LP+MP+HP, releasing, then locking into a repeated headbutt grip, then charging the LP+MP+HP again and repeating. You can repeat that until they die and it's almost impossible to counter. It feels REALLY cheap though, so I don't like to use that technique.Hotaru, you mean? I actually like playing as her regardless, but that DM is pretty funny. Almost Ar Tonelico-level double entendre going on.Funk, E wrote:Hikaru. For her Ultimate Orgasm Explosion move. It just makes me laugh every time.
Well, I hate Tager, but that's mainly because I main Taokaka. Just like how I hate Potemkin because I mained Baiken. I can just imagine the guys on the other ends of the tubes saying "Wow, that was a really impressive combo you just pulled off. Here's a command grab: I win."Kevman wrote: I also use Tager in BB. I get a lot of comments saying he is cheap and overpowered buts that's just because I beat the scrubs on XBL.
Grapplers in any fighting game need special kind of strategy. Letting a grappler get in close is a death sentence. For example in HDR I'm usually very rush-down with Deejay, but when I see a Gief come aboard I zone the hell out of him. I understand how that could be a problem though since Toakaka's projectiles are shit but Tager is pretty useless if the oppenent isn't magnetized. Perhaps consider taking up Nu just in-case you run into a Tager.the7k wrote:Well, I hate Tager, but that's mainly because I main Taokaka. Just like how I hate Potemkin because I mained Baiken.

If I used any other character, it wouldn't really be a problem, but I always go for the rush-down characters. I understand perfectly well that Tager is bottom-tier, but if I'm playing as Taokaka, I may as well be fighting Unlimited Rachel.
