Good looking out. I've been on the ball with that though..thinking about this issue. Breaking bad habits from playing Arcade mode took me a while. Now I play the CPU with new eyes. Its clear stuff like:

- the CPU does not flub counter opps. If they get you, they got you.
- the CPU doesn't base their whole offense on crossups. Yeah, I said it. They don't do it enough, but they certainly don't do it all the time. On that note...
- Humans have no qualms about cross-up into throw shenanigans. Or just throw shenanigans = my whole offense type of stuff in general. On some old win and get a D for offense steez. The CPU doesn't do that unless they're playing with Gief or Hawk. And even then...
- the CPU isn't harsh. Its rare that they combo like they should with certain characters. Otherwise, Gouki would be tought to beat. Its like they should somehow go and patch in combos for the computer once the heads get a game and go to town on it.
