I agree oh so fucking much. but I was over ruled by the staff . I was fucking up so much when making the demo video lol saying back plus back punch gets me all tongue tied.
i agree that numbers are kind of lame but it takes you 2 seconds to say, read or write a combo using the numbers which would take you 15 using the fp,fk thing and maybe a minute if
you are using the symbols that dan used in the first post. i really do not mind the fpk , bpk thing but the truth is that numbers are more practical
+ is because you have a lot of time to link in a freeze or safe jump from it into mixups. The 2nd hit of + isnt as good because its already part of a combo so people will know its coming. Plus its easy to see coming because it has a big overhead swing startup animation. But yea,+ is nice.
