[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"]I don't get it, is it hard to block those moves or something? Never played 3rd strike.Mograine

By comparison, look at those Starcraft matches. You don't see too much stuff going on, right? Those players are smashing their keyboards and mice at an average of 500 strokes per minute and peak at 800 strokes per minute.

stop making stuff up, only one guy has ever actually gone to 800, most of the best hover around 200 during non-fighting parts, and when the action heats up it goes to about 300-400 (guys like white-ra, stay low however and hover around 160 and then move up to the 200s).

also i totally guessed that daigo match would get number 1. that fight was amazing. it was funny to hear everybody cheer for justin and then immediately turn on him after daigo parried all of chun li's super.

also it is VERY hard to parry chun li's super and it wasnt blocking, it was parrying, which is very risky. her super is very fast. the only one that is harder to parry is akuma's fireball, which is literally impossible to parry.

That's Starcraft 2, I'm not "making stuff up", so keep your bs for yourself.

That list was garbage. They even took the wrong footage of Justin Wong vs. Daigo. There will never be another competitive gaming moment as epic as Daigo's full parry from EVO 2004.

lol, akumas fire ball? Im Positive your confusing that with something else.

Perhaps Oro's super?

If you just mean Akuma's fireball super, thats usually the basic stuff to parry.

Maybe you mean his KKZ?

You can't parry the first hit of that, but everything else you can.

Not really, their APM is actually around 200 and peaking around 300. Thats insanely fast though.

AD. sports x not sports discussion:

Why should it be sports actually? Its completely useless and ppl compete who can do it better - just like any other sport. Right?

I see I see :) didnt know Starcraft payers APM is so much higher than SC2 players, tbh I started watching esports with Warcraft 3 and Im actually getting into it with Starcraft 2, I never watched Starcraft progaming scene...
