hmmm, i think thats exactly what im gonna do when 13's out. im sure ill find other good players in lobbies as well when the times due.
also something that i noticed in ssf4 but a lot of people are seeing only now after juicebox is yuris power. i faced some decent yuris, im not great at ssf4 but i know im good enough to hold my own against other players mainly cause of playing sf2 series religiously back in the days (sf2=sf4light, you can play one you can play both, its not like ts where you actually had to relearn a lot of the gameplan). yuri is mad strong and shes upper mid at least, just below the high tier. i dont think she has any bad match ups (her worst are 4.5/5.5) and can keep out a large portion of the cast with her fb game and those bitchmade crouching mediums of her. as a keep away character shes great and where there is an opening she can dish it out (unlike guile, whos all turtle but crappy damage output in general, unless in corner).
enough bout sf4 though, lets talk kof again.
damn just heard more of the podcast. bala was acting pretty damn bicthmade from what ive understood. he probably could have won any way even without going bitchmade/bitchmode.
