Me in Training mode doing my huge, crazy Cassandra combos (one does 182 total damage) with my favorite CAS. Really just the same combo again and again with slight variations.

Enjoy.

Nice, but... what are the odds of your opponent NOT air-controlling their way out of that?

If the opponent air-controls sideways, 236AB. If they go backwards, 236BB. :P

I have some vids of me using it in Quick Play Extremely Hard. Those will be posted soon.

EDIT:

Here ya go:

New vid:

Me playing through Quick Play Extremely Hard.

Just 2 flaws. 1 round lost to Nightmare over a stupid mistake and a Double KO against Abyss. But I do get a Perfect against both of them.

I just barely made it under YouTube's 10 minute limit. If anyone else tries to record theirselves playing through Quick Play, remember that you can't lose too many rounds! If I had lost just 2 rounds, I wouldn't have made it!

There are YouTubes over 10 minutes, dunno what you're talking about. Look for anime episodes if you don't believe me. About the vid, that's pretty nice, though there's a few mistakes here and there. I give it a 9.

Thanks. I'll continue trying for an even better performance. I mean, I've had plenty of no-loss multiple-Perfects runs before, but not while recording. I got the recording equipment only recently and I only yesterday figured out how to record stuff without lag. (there used to be a half second lag from when something would happen and from when I would actually see it on screen. It was passable for combo vids, but not for gameplay)

I guess I should clarify. The 10-minute limit applies to non-paying YouTube users.

I forgot ask about the amount of gold I got. I get 15,840 gold, although I still don't understand what causes this to happen. You would think not losing a round is how to do it, but obviously that is not true. There was one time I didn't lose a round and got only 7,680.

It's based on speed, difficulty, and number of rounds lost, I believe.

I guess speed must be it. There were 2 other recordings I had where I lost only 1 round but both were over 10 minutes and I got 7,680. I would guess the cut-off for bonus $ would be 10 minutes. The only thing that makes me doubt time changes the reward is the fact there is no time displayed while playing Quick Play. Even Tekken's Story Modes (where no records are kept and no bonus $ for speed) have time displayed.

I've looked in the code, and it's those three things, trust me.

Yes, that must be it. Another quick run I did resulted in 15,000+ gold.

Anyways... more vids...

Finally, an Extremely Hard Quick Play run where I don't lose any rounds:

And it's not Cassandra, but a vid of the ultimate anti-AI trick:

Enjoy. ^_~

And they're not SC, but I did put up a bunch of interesting vids from other games like Parappa The Rappa and DOAU and DOAX, check them out if you want.

Nice run, no defeats on AI Extremely hard without Anti-AI moves is impressive, regardless of what character you are using. Your skills with Cassandra are as good if not better than my own with Taki, Seong Mi-Na, and Amy. (Night Terror too, but I hacked to get him. :P He's supposed to be overpowered as-is.) I'd love to face you in battle someday if at all possible. 10/10

Your video about Sophitia's Anti-AI is just sad, though. Putting this up is going to just allow the noobs one more (this time one that is fullproof or so it seems) opportunity to lame their way through the AI, which is unrespectable and also shows that they have no skills and really shouldn't be playing the game in the first place. Anyone who uses hacks or cheats to easily beat a game and/or to unlock everything just should not be a gamer... that's my opinion anyway. -10/10

I don't know where you are now, but I'm in Selden, NY now. If you live in NJ, I can probably get to you. I plan on being in Lousiana and California sometime soon. If you're not anywhere near those places, I'm not sure what to do. I would like to go to Evo someday. Maybe we can meet at that.

Regarding the AI... in both SC3 and even more so in Tekken: DR, I say that asking players to compete with automatic and perfect AI is like asking pro athletes to compete with steroid users. Losing to them doesn't mean you lack skills. They're the ones lacking skill for cheating so much.

If a player wants the challenge of fighting the AI, they can go fot it. But if they just want to unlock things (or at least, unlock things first and concentrate on getting good later), don't destroy their interest in the game with unnecessarily difficult AI.

And yes, this AI trick fullproof. 100%. The only drawback is that landing the first hit can be tricky. But at least it doesn't have to fully charged. Once you land the first hit, the AI cannot escape. They will always ukemi into the next Mirage Satellite.

Sorry, I'm in Antioch / Nashville, TN, kinda far...

What I'm saying is if the player can defeat the AI effortlessly without Anti-AI strategies, then they learn skills that can be used in competitive combat.

If a player is serious about getting their skill to a competitive level, they'll learn with or without becoming good against the AI.

One of these days, me and friends will probably go on a road trip. (like from Lousiana to NY) So if you're still living there by then, maybe I can stop by.
