ost_uid0="~Mastermax~"]who said the 2004 generation was good?
a lot of the 2004 generation suck, but some people are good, and then people say that the 2001 generation is the best, jus tbecuase they are so called vets?
they may have been good back then but the game has changed since then.[/quote]
I understand that the game has drastically changed, which is one reason why I made this topic, to compare eras of different months and years. Now I'm not saying that 2001 0wNzOrS j00!!!1111. It may have been a long time ago, but we tried to learn strategies everyday, which strategies would work and which didn't. it seems that people today aren't doing that so much, even though there are more guides, there is less strategy conversation. I used to be on the chats discussing with other people about "advanced" Ryu strategies, believe it or not, it was more than hadouken into super.

2001 also had the will to be the best, which meant people would challenge stronger fighters and even if they kept losing, they got better (Fear-Tetsuo for example). 2004 has this, but it's not mainstream enough and it's a hassle just to get into a fight. People fight for rank now more than they do to be the best. Maybe it's because of the lack of quality tournaments, but if you constantly battle something that's better than you, it will make you even better than fighting for rank. Beating a ####ie who can only punch and kick or only knows basic strategies won't get you much better, it might even regress your skill, but facing a challenge will improve your confidence and witts.
