I did say I was exaggerating didn't I? lol. you do have to have lots of
dedication though. if you play casually with friends, you'll never win Evo
tournaments. you gotta go online, ranked, and play constantly. when you can
beat like 150 people in a row without dying, then that person might probably
stand a chance at a tournament. haha. I definitely agree with you about the
analyzing part though. there are people who are just real good at figuring
out a game's engine. they pick it up, and in half an hour they're like ok,
these chains combo into this special etc. that's real hard to do in my
opinion. it doesn't come naturally to me, I must practice. for instance when
skarlet came out, within an hour, there were already these real massive
combos being uploaded to youtube. same holds true for any character.

No, I firmly don't believe that. As close as I think you are you are
exaggerating. That's like someone can only become an 8th dan in Karate if
they practice 14 hours a day. You don't have to dream about street
fighter. You just need to be a dedicated fan, and analyse as much as you
can when you play. That does not mean 14 hours of practice. I know a
national player of another game... and they don't practice that much. They
just play every day for about 2 hours, and go to tournaments whenever they
have the chance.

Clement,
Here's the million dollar question: how many people blind or otherwise,
are dedicated enough to sit there literally for hours, trying to get as
good as we possibly can? to win these tournaments, you gotta practice
around 14 hours a day. loving street fighter isn't enough. you gotta
dream about it, eat with a controller in your hands, you need to have a
ps3 or xbox installed in your car, so that when you get a brilliant idea
for a Guile combo you can test it out immediately before you forget.
funny thing is I'm probably not exaggerating hahaha. these are people
who's online record is something like 3895 wins and 38 losses lol .

And this is just it. I think, if we really tried, we could get to this
level. There's enough audio detail in SSFIV that no movement is missed.
The disabled SF player I was talking about said on an interview,
"There's no limits what you can do if you want to play competetively. I
just tried my hardest because I love SF and I love competing." And I
personally think it's true. I've gone up against pretty good people with
a lot of experience if their SF profile cards online say much, and won.
How? I used unconventional strategy to catch people off guard... but
that's all I'll say. Can't expose all my secrets! lol.

Hi Yohandi, Clement and others,
I actually listened to all these matches and it's true, we probably
never will get to such technical hights. *lol*
Well, besides that I get a little sad because I have to wait for my new
laptop before I can play Street Fighter IV again, my current one is just
way to slow for this game.
But these matches are really great and I really don't want to know how
many sleepless nights it took to get all this down so well. *grins*
Best regards
Sarah
