(604) BC players, marvel/cvs2/third strike tournament thread!

dc is better than console version? maybe… but just cause you don’t shell out tokens to play. dc version is good and all, but it does screw up my timing BIG TIME (specially cause i use yun).

of players who play 3s competitively on DC: 2?

of players who play 3s competitively on arcade: everyone else

who should adapt? :rolleyes:

THIRD STRIKE / MARVEL TOMORROW BOYS!!! BE THERE!

:lol:

thank you, PONTI, for your astute observations. since everyone else plays the coin-op, we should base everything there. but enough about that.

edit: if DUDLEY is (as VINCENT mentioned) “gayed out” in the DC version of 3rdStrike, that leads me to conclude that DC 3rdStrike is also gayed out :p.

Went and played at Sunny Vale Golf Land today.

Man, they got some HELLA good ass players!!

There was a white guy named Alex who was absolutley fucking crazy… Had one nutty nutty storm. Had one nutty sent. I didn’t beat him today, I only played him 2 or 3 times… took me hella tries last year to beat him, but no such luck tonight. He would beat everyone in Canada for sure. His screen name is “The Chunksta”…

Then there was this guy using Mag/Storm/Sent-a who had a crazy rushdown game. I later learned this was Mikey Rasphone… I didn’t play him cuz when it was my turn, he wasn’t on the machine anymore. Imagine a crazed msp player using sent-a instead of psylocke. Very impressive.

I played Cableguy86 3 or 4 times I think? Our first match, I OCV’d him with Sentinel to the delight of the crowd [oh my god murder], but every other match after that he beat me. Got owned hard in one match… guy is hella good… His cable is really solid, as well as his Sentinel.

Then there was Hiro (hydro) from Oakland… I played him once and I won, but he was using Ironman, so I don’t conisder it a REAL win hahaha… his sentinel was pretty good too.

There was 2 REALLY good MSP players and Ohayo who was using Strider/Doom.

Thats about it… my max win streak was 2. Won single matches a few times… Teams used Mag/Cable/Sent (someone told me to use this team but start the BEAST [sent]) (2 wins) Sent/Storm/Commando (single wins)and Storm/Sent/Cable (single win)…

I was about to win another match too I had commando in with like 5% life and around 10% sentinel with 2 bars and he had psylocke and mags with the assist out and magneto was in the air… I do the motion for corridor and all the machines turn off and SVGL closes.

Well thats about it for updates… only my Mags and Storm improved this trip… Sent and Cable are about the same… I’ll be chillin and veggin out tomorrow … hehe

vincent, yeah i did notice the timing differences for genei jin… they were easier! lol

and as for dc vs arcade, these minor timing differences shouldn’t bother you. it’s about getting the guys in the combos. the timings you can work out. however, losing unblockables sucks, but it’s only a matter of preference from then on. you can’t say however that the game designers meant for it to be there therefore, it’s right. because if you look at dumb characters like cable and sentinel… i doubt the game designers had in mind that four characters would ruin the game so to speak.

regardless, playing on either console or arcade will increase your skill in the other system. the game is not THAT much different. only the controllers and settings change.

kyle: don’t worry, i’ll start playing marvel again. less than 1/5 of my games in edmonton were ocv’s… like wayy lesss almost 1/10 so that pissed me off. when you come back, we’ll have some marvel sessions and hopefully you can teach me a thing or two. i’m about a year and a half behind in the game.

you’d think i got better after playing jones but i only learned how to beat jones. with BLACKHEART and on shitty controllers. i wanna play on something i can use like the cvs2 pro sticks. the JZ sticks are getting too gay for me now fudge

anyways, gumby is a beast at third strike. why do you fuckers keep playing these games??? fuck if you practiced this hard for marvel, you’ll be like at least third place in bc you raging homo. but instead… you go and play third strike… at least play marvel SOMETIMES fucker

kyle, i will play you when you get back. no matter how bad i suck now, i’ll still be able to get better and adapt and whatnot.

some random cali guy won’t have an edge on canada without a fight

edit: hey tony, i should give you my picture of me flexing kinda akuma style to add to the avatar… that is if you still have it lying around on your computer!! the picture of the chick from ghost ship’s gotta go… she’s fugly… and that emma watson one only i like… everyone else thinks she looks stupid!!!

Haha yea she’s pretty ugly but do I really have to put that pick in of u @_@ j/k :eek:
He’s not random cali guy man… he’s beaten Ricky Ortiz in almost every tourney in cali this year and Ricky came 2nd in Evo last year
Good luck Kyle! lololol:lol:
Man I’m trying my hardest to save up for this stick yo but I got my 2 year anny coming up and shiet and skool goddam
:mad:

alex?

as in alex valle!!!

Nono Alex as in ‘Tha CHUNKSTA’

Alex Valle = Calipower

good games to navid, chris f, and allan today. good practice. it kinds pisses me off that i get better results with ken… i’ve been using him way less than yun.

i wanted to play your necro chris :smiley: hehe but at least i stood a chance against you when you used hugo.

again, it was fun and good games!!

kyle, check your xanga before u leave san fran and leave me a message via srk, xanga, or aim.

Yeah but Neero got jacked by Archer’s Makoto first game so I was thinking Hugo right after that. Your Ken is your best character at the moment I think. You gave Hugo a lot of problems. I’ll use Emperor Neero next time.

haha i thought you picked hugo cause you were going easy on me :smiley: but yeah i’d like to play against your best character soon :slight_smile:

i’m craving more third strike. i’m goin to jz’s today. :slight_smile: i’ll be there till 4 or so (parents have to go to my cousin’s around 6, so yeah :frowning: )

someone show up!!!

:stuck_out_tongue:

PONTI craves the good stuff!

:lol:

IM BACK

TAO I CHALLENGE U FOR TITLE OF BEST IN BC

wow.

with all these challenges coming, all the tension is mounting. but let’s discuss the first and most important match at hand.

NAVID vs. MAZDAK

who will win?

who will get pwn3d?!?

:lol:

:lame: :lame:

random money match between two shit talking posters that can’t even agree to play on arcade or dc is more important than…

THE BEST MARVEL PLAYER IN CANADA CHALLENGE?!

:lol:

maybe not more important, but certainly a hell of a lot more entertaining than any MvC2 match.
