Sarah? Really?

Damn straight. I don't think I've ever been so serious about a character in VF before.

Fighting GentlemanThief's Jean has been a big VF wake-up call for me. We've seen people play their respective characters, but he's taken an identity with Jean, and is striving to perfect his game. With his success at Evo, and his greater success at Sega Cup, he's certainly proven one thing:

We don't have to suck. And now, we have no reason to suck.

But why Sarah? I feel that she's hella underrated, and I want to prove that fact to everyone. I have so many things I do with her extremely calculated, to the point where even the smallest mistakes on my part frustrate me. I've dropped all my other characters, and I've been working hard with her, developing the cheapest strategies, maxing out damage on every launch, figuring out wall gimmicks, etc. Her move set has so much potential, and Flamingo is better than it ever has been (certainly better than the garbage it was in vanilla.)

I don't want to get into any details just yet, but would rather use this 1st blog entry as an introduction to how serious I am with Sarah, and how willing I am to share my experience with her with everyone willing to know about it. My only fear is that my studies/discoveries with her will go unseen by other VF players. I will still post on VFDC, and now with this nice Happauge I got I can produce videos fairly easily and upload them.

I can't ask to be the strongest player alive - well, I guess I could. But shit, that's not happening anytime soon. However, we call can strive to be the strongest we can be, we all spend enough time playing the game, right? Hell, you've made it this far into this post, you must have some sort of determination! Whether that's to flat out kick my ass, kiss it, or to give or receive advice, at the end of the day it's all good.

SO,

Expect alot of my experimental Sarah tech to show up here. I might praise or talk crap about stuff, but in the end I want people to grow from their experiences with me, inside or outside of the game.

Time to Level Up!

P.S. thanks to EvenPit for encouraging me to start blogging again! It's a pretty neat way to organize thoughts.
