I love my fighters. Street Fighter, King of Fighters, SoulCalibur, Vs. Capcom, even Smash Bros... which ones do you play, and who do you main?

Don't bother asking me for a match, I actually don't own any of these and play casually. I'd probably smash you silly, though. =)

I use to play both Smash Bros. Melee and Brawl with my friends.
I usually abuse of glitches with Pikachu, but I also take Fox or Falco*. (*Not on Brawl)
But my favorite is Jigglypuff.

I've played once to SoulCalibur (Link is one of the characters, as I remember...).
Good game

Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Game&Watch, Lucario, or Meta Knight.

Street Fighter: Joe

Streets of Rage: Axel

Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3: some combination of Viewtiful Joe, Frank West, Tron Bonne, Arthur, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, Deadpool
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Viewtiful Joe & Hurricane Polymar. Maybe also Yatterman-2.
SSB64/Vanilla Brawl: Ness, Pikachu
Melee: Link, Pikachu
Project M: Lucas, Bowser, Mario, Pikachu, Mr. Game & Watch
Super Street Fighter 4: Dhalsim, probably. I don't play it much anymore.

Playstation All-Stars (not done yet): probably Nice Cole. Besides BioShock, inFAMOUS is the game represented in PSABR that I've played the most. I really hope Snake is in it. I love Metal Gear Solid.

Of the traditional fighters (the ones that aren't Smash Bros.) I pretty much only play UMvC3, now... and really, I only know a few little combos that aren't Team Air Combos. TACs aren't bad but they can be countered so they're not reliable

Deadpool:
LLLLS -> LLMHS -> H Katama-Rama! -> Chimichangas! -> Happy Happy Trigger

Viewtiful Joe:
LMH -> Mach Speed -> (jump) LMH -> Air Joe -> (on drop kick) Desperado

Arthur:
LMHS -> LLMHS -> Fire Bottle -> Goddess Bracelet

Strange:
LMHS -> LLMHS -> Spell of Ashanti

Start with dat.


Yay someone plays TvC =) Nice team. I use Soki and Blade, or Joe the Condor and Yatts-2.

I should probably put my mains since most others are.

Street Fighter Alpha 2: Charlie
Super Street Fighter 4: Vega, Makoto, Ibuki, Fei Long
Street fighter x Tekken: Vega, Balrog, Guile, Steve
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Amateratsu, Iron Man, Strider Hiryu, Chris
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Tekkaman Blade, Soki, Yatterman-2, Joe the Condor
SoulCalibur 5: Maxi, Nightmare
King of fighters XIII: Kula, Shen, Maxima, Terry, King
Persona 4: Arena: Naoto

Do you guys pick characters based off ease-of-usability or character loyalty?

I knew the Deadpool one. I often DHC that one into Tron's Servbot Takeout or Arthur's Goddess Bracelet. Conversely, I've got a Tron Combo that goes more or less like LLMS -> LMS -> vH -> Bandit Boulder -> Servbot Takeout, which can DHC to Happy Happy Trigger or Goddess Bracelet.

EVERYTHING combos into Spell of Vishanti!

Edit: Character loyalty all the way, for mascot fighters/crossover fighters. In Smash Bros. the entire draw to the game is to make Nintendo characters beat each other up. I'm gonna go with the characters I already love.

Yeah, I guess I meant more like that. I usually tend to pick my characters based off aesthetics or how much they kick . I never pick off tiers, with few exceptions like Kula and Nightmare, though I wouldn't call them top-tier. Really, if you try hard enough, you can make any character work, if it's a well designed fighter. But yeah, looks, definitely. The only reason I picked up Steve in SFxT is because he had an alt that looks like Charlie.


Yeah, Skeleton, that combo works fine. Really, in low and mid-tier play, that's all you need. Unless you go to EVO and stuff, the most important thing in Vs. Capcom isn't huge combos, but using your tools effectively. Like with Tron, her Servbot trap thingys, her command grab, Deadpool's guns and gifts... stuff like that. And DHC's make a huge difference. Get the hang of that, and you don't need Dante 100+ hit combos.

I'm picking Phoenix Wright up. I'm finding that if you don't waste Trial Mode trying to get to Turnabout Mode, he's not that incompetent.

More competent than Hsien-Ko, at least. Poor Hsien-Ko. Maybe you won't suck in Darkstalkers 4, Hsien-Koooo

You know if you pull up Maya Shield and have Pheonix stand inside it, he's invincible except to throws? Put him on point, btw.

Ah Hsien-Ko... so sad. So sad.
