Tekken, Soul Calibur, Mortal Kombat/IGAU, and (I think) MvC3 include the first active too. (Not sure about others).

@gette, this thread (first post) by evilben explains IPS. http://skullgirls.com/forums/index.php?threads/basic-mechanics-in-skullgirls.80/

Just for clarity's sake, shouldn't he be looking for anything with 7 frames of startup? I'm pretty sure the convention is to include the first active frame as startup. So unless whoever gathered the SG frame data did it differently, startup can equal recovery.

Thanks. Fixed.

It worked on Tapatalk before the site went down. They'll probably get to it eventually.

What is a foil card? (I'm new to steam cards)

I don't want to tell you how long it took me to realize 'Phoenix Down' meant the feather of a Phoenix...

If you have your basic execution and a basic BnB down I'd say spend the majority of your time playing real people. Training just isn't gonna teach you defense or the neutral game, which are the most important skills (IMO). Of course if you run into a specific setup you want to test, training...

My PW for your Squigly? (Assuming you have extra)

Feel free to put this in the OP. Pushblock absolute guard - one interesting mechanic with PBing is the 'absolute guard'. What happens is your block direction during a PB gets "locked in" for the duration of the PB animation. So, if you PB while holding back, then immediately change your...

I know Double's car super doesn't have this. Or if it does it's only on the normal version, and not the opposite screen-side version (for good reason).

Mildly is better than more, so I'll go with that.

[H] extra Painwheel (also Super Meat Boy, Divekick, Don't Starve) [W] (in order) Squigly, Eliza, Big Band, Filia, Peacock, Cerebella, Beowulf.

I think you couldn't find documentation on this because it doesn't exist. It's news to me, and I'm almost positive no one ever mentioned it on SRK or the old SH. Good stuff.

My personal setup is what I mentioned for directional inputs, and then UIO, JKL for LP MP HP, and LK MK HK. I use Y and H as my macro buttons, and I don't use the 'right stick assist' buttons; but if I did they'd be semicolon and P. It's normal to have trouble pulling stuff off in matches at...

Self explanatory title. So I ran into something interesting during training the other day that leads me to believe there is something wrong with the "play back as reversal" record option. I was practicing Seria Sing xx Daisy Pusher setups with Squigly. Specifically, I was trying to see if I...

Dunno if you saw it, but Evilben posted a thread on SGs other game systems, which includes both IPS and pushblocking. It's in the beginner section, so check it out if you haven't.

Not sure what you mean by punishing you. If you press it too early the move won't come out. If the opponent is mashing reversal and you try to link too early you'll be punished, so in that sense it punishes you. You are correct about the definition of a link. It isn't a cancel, but it still combos.

More info on chunking/learning combos. Chunking takes advantage of how we learn. IIRC the average human can recall about seven "things" at a given time. What's great though, is that "thing" is a really vague term. To explain this I'll use a general example of someone who cannot even do a basic...

Most links aren't too tight in this game, so mashing them is a bit more successful, but you'll still want to really learn the actual link timing to be really consistent.
