Lag Sucks

    This is actually the way I decide if lag is too shitty. With most two or three bar connections I can usually get Lau's elbow or Jeff's 4k in between 2p spam. I told this to someone once who didn't believe me...

    Besides Happy and Betabow, who uses Lau in the US/Canada?

    Also what is the deal with people having such a hard time figuring out the pecking order below the top-toppest players? Online is TRASH. Stop trying to climb to the top of the trash heap by insulting other people's style passive-aggressively by saying it isn't valid or it's spam or implicitly lacks fundamentals. If you don't have the numbers (in wins -- y'know, concrete results) to back your claim that another player is a scrub then don't even bring it up. I had to learn the hard way to keep my mouth shut when I couldn't back it up but the lesson wasn't lost on me.

    I also consider this to decide lag or not, and I believe spammers can definitely earn extra advantage. [​IMG]

    well on XBL, because of slight lag, the nearly imperceptible inherent lag, I alway hadtotelegraph my low throw when I stomach crumple somebody with a quick frame counter hit(like El Blazes 46P+K,or Vanessa's G,8P). An untintentional convienience is I wont have to worry about that in FS because low throwing stomach crumpled opponents has been removed. /Grrrrrr......

    Is it "bad" to simply gain good defense from experience and actual practice in defending only rather than learning frames? I find I can't really bring frame knowledge into playing anyway. My defense is definitely not bad, but it isn't because I know frames, but because I've paid attention to when I can and can't attack over the time I've played the game

    It's definitely not bad at all, and there's nothing wrong with your approach. Frames can sometimes help reinforce learning and/or explain situations you cannot figure out. But frame knowledge alone does not a good player make.

    Stone Drum, if you play long enough, you may eventually run into people who are the exact opposite: they know the frames but get overwhelmed when actually playing the game.
