Modern fighting game twitter: "This game has no drip. That has drip. Does this game have sauce? That game had sauce after season 3. That game didnt have sauce. They patched in the sauce. They nerfed the sauce." *volume warning* SFEX2+ Ryu (1999):

j. HK> (Excel activation)「5MP5HP 5LP*MICROWALK (j. MKHPLPHK) 2HP 5HK5LP*」6HP > (Excel activation) 「2LK5HK5LP* MICROWALK (j. MKHPLPHK) 2HP5HK5LP*」 6HP > (Excel activation) 2LK5HP5LP* MICROWALK 5LK5HK5LP* MICROWALK (Jump loop) 2MP2MKxxTatsux4xxSuper * = whiff reverse beat jab

This maniac trial clear combo is extremely hard. Took me about 10 hours to hit. Note the game doesnt have buffer for activation & links, gotta hit it raw. Speed for the Excel attack strings & jump loops are FAST. 2 different kind of microwalk timings in the same combo is insane.

what did you play it on? i played sfex on duckstation on a haute leverless a bit ago and the inputs felt kinda scattershot

@Kajoq 5 gallons of sauce

The Street Fighter EX2 Excel mechanic

fellow oldhead POP D FUCK OFF son. Maniac Mode baby

I think FGC Twitter's loudest voices are too young to understand what "aura", "drip", & "fire" actually mean in their slang. We had fughting games with spirit, grit, & style, and still play them to this day. The SFEX series was one of 'em. It's that Good stuff.

YOU GOT YOUR SAUCE ON MY DRIP!

very rare i see combos where you purposely whiff an attack to continue the combo one of Blazblues hard mode trials had me do this, and im like, who is actually going to pull this off during a real fight lmao

*Whispers like its a secret* youve never played mbaacc ?

no, ive only played that ps4 version of melty blood, pretty much ignoring the past ones, or only playing less than 30 minutes of it, so im not familiar at all with older melty blood

*whispers* thats why its rare to you

pffft, haha, i guess so. definately not a common thing at all from all the other fighting game trials ive seen and played

*whispers* we know. Thats the point. Thats why its hype when it shows up in other games because we know its inspired from stuff like this or that game. You are uncultured.

i am highly offended, good sir 😤 older melty just doesnt click with me enough to really try for to long, so its just a series im not familiar much with melty, arcana heart, series i wouldnt mind trying more, but it just doesnt click to much with me to keep sticking with it

Hell yeah nice job

Obama has hands in sfex2+ DAAAAAMNNN

raw sauce no ketchup

SFEX2 PLUS the best to ever fucking do it baby, let them KNOW

Looking pretty saucy!

Arika makes only fuckin bangers and no one ever wants to acknowledge it.

The EX games deserved so much more.

SF EX series was the peak of SF
