So we revisit this. I didn't play this in the arcade much, but Iowa has something last time against Hibiki, but now Gangut has something the throw back.
Well she is older and more experienced.....
(Of the non-Iowa shipgirls Gangut is the oldest by launch date and by years of service. Kongo's still the oldest commissioned ship, and Iowa I still technically counting years afloat, so she's the oldest at nearly 75 years old).
Side note, the Russians are restoring a 1860s ironclad monitor (Strelets or Стрелец) to its original configuration. Based on the American Passaic-class monitor, the Russian ship was built in 1864 and was eventually rebuilt as a floating workshop (Plavmasterskaia No. 1) that served through both World Wars. Her fate was unknown until recently when talk surfaced that funds were being raised to restore her as a historical monitor.
Ok. If the parent post is about the Cold War for the most part, wouldn't this post be about if either side actually launching an attack (be it of missiles or other weapons)?
Looking at what have been translated from Iowa's line so far, Gangut may have indeed used tricks such as tick throws or the infamous grab-through-fireball glitch.
Nobody seems to have pointed it out, but turtle Guile is apparently a meme in Japan, and a key part of the joke in both this and the parent strip. Nicopedia article here.
THE RED CYCLONE WINS!!!! Go home and retire yourself, Iowa. I'm actually curious if Gangut would play as the...new Russian girl in SFV, or Dragunov in Tekken.
Hmpf.Do svidanya,
see you again.Hang on, I can't do a thing here!
/hame/ - to play in such a way that the opponent can't act, such as infinite loops and the like.Is that all?Afterwards, Iowa continued to be defeated by Gangut, who perfectly utilized the spacing and SPD.
'間合い' - the spacing between the characters
'立ちスクリュー' - to rotate the controller in a 360 motion (therefore SPD, as in Zangief's Spinning Pile Driver)In my territory, that wouldn't count.
Quote from BurontDid he suck me in!?
Zangief's Spinning Pile Driver is notorious for having a hitbox significantly larger than the length of his arms, leading to jokes that Zangief can pull opponents by breathing in really hard.
