In live matches, I tend to play a very conservative Rose. I generally go for simple combos, as I’m confident in my ability to land them consistently. However, I use this opportunity to show off a few more fancy things in my bag of tricks. I’m considering making more combo videos with different characters as a means of not only creating more content for the site, but also as a means of better learning the game as a whole. Let me know if you enjoyed the video and if you’re interested in more!

EMERY-BOARD (Rose) vs jettFTW (Rolento) in Ultra Street Fighter IV
My Rolento squaring off against a highly-ranked Rose. I think he’s a good player, but I suspect that match-up experience played a key role in its outcome.
KDA_SAKO- (Evil Ryu) vs. jettFTW (Rolento/Rose) in Ultra Street Fighter IV
Highly doubt that this is the real Sako, but at times he certainly dishes it out like his namesake. Here’s a few of our matches that went down a while back.
jettFTW (Rose/Rolento) vs. Sacojericho (El Fuerte) in Ultra Street Fighter IV
A series of matches against a quality El Fuerte player from my area. I recognized his name from the times I was at T12 and Toryuken, so it was great to get some matches in against him!
Guile (MAXSDAN) vs. Rolento (jettFTW) in Ultra Street Fighter IV
Squaring off against the #3 ranked Guile in the world on PSN.
m3gatron427 (Zangief) vs. jettFTW (Rose) in Ultra Street Fighter IV
A 5000+ BP Zangief player immediately decides to take a holier-than-thou approach to Rose’s fireballs by simply blocking them until he loses. He quickly follows up his loss with the hateful message below.
I’ll gladly take the free win and the Battle Points, but I won’t accept anyone trying to paint me as the bad guy because I didn’t follow some non-existent set of fighting game gentleman’s rules. It’s people like this who also foolishly believe that throws are cheap and should not be used in any fighting game ever. These gentleman’s rules DO NOT EXIST. You play to win and that’s that. We live in a world where TAC infinite combos in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 are deemed legal by the biggest fighting game tournament in the world. A world where a glitch became heavily used in Capcom vs. SNK 2 because it made the game better.
Furthermore, we live in a world where Zangief can beat Rose! Watch the above video where Aquasilk overcomes any on-paper match-up advantages I had to beat me into submission. M3gatron427’s refusal to fight only further amplifies his ignorance and lack of match-up knowledge.
This is fighting games in 2014. Everything is fair game and anything that isn’t gets patched out. If you want to get under my skin in Ultra Street Fighter IV, don’t throw a match and then send a salty text message as a parting shot. Those childish antics nothing. If you really want to grind my gears, beat me in the game.
Ryu (|H|akai) vs. Rolento (jettFTW) in Ultra Street Fighter IV
Don’t judge a player by their Battle Points. |H|akai doesn’t have many, but this Ryu player clearly knew what they were doing. He convincingly zoned out my Rolento and took this match to the absolute limit.
jettFTW vs. NostalgicX in Ultra Street Fighter IV
This match is a great example of how important space control is. Sakura wants to rush in as aggressively as possible while Rolento wants to keep her at bay with his pokes. When one person controls the space, they dominate. However, the action swings wildly as control switches hands.
So this is the #1 ranked Rolento on PSN?
One round ranked match against an opponent going out of his way to get hit by the same move over and over? Well, congratulations I guess.
