i practiced marvel and cvs2 all day at jz’s today haha nobody showed up! 
oh well hehe
i can actually do sakura’s cc now!! hehe i just gotta practice a little bit more and i’ll be okay.
Hey Tao, how did you do when you played in Toronto? I have a friend at waterloo who says he’s going to play Jiggabry next term and he’s wondering how he stacks up.
How would you rank the Toronto players against yourself?
this WAS two years ago
two years ago, the only guy who impressed me with his skills was jonstar, and i hear he’s the best there now anyways so i was right lol
i didn’t see that sammang koy guy play but mag/bh/clops doesn’t sound too impressive
sadly, me, jonstar, and josh wong got knocked out and we were very choked. but whatever, sucks to be me
i’m hoping everyone there got much better because they were impressed by magneto infinites and sentinel unfly tactics (not even the combo’s)… since everyone on the EC is using msp now, i’m sure EC is better, not sure about toronto.
but they were good with the teams they played, don’t get me wrong, but it seems that they weren’t exposed to any kind of agressive styles of play… i mean… lol justin wong lives there hahaha
i took out jonstar for best in western canada and toronto 4-0 in our lil bet and he got mad cuz i was sandbagging hahaha
i’m sure he’s prolly as good as me now though, that guy had real good skills. but unlesss i go there again, there’s prolly no way to tell. sadly, you can’t tell in casual play just by how bad they rape you since no one plays hard in casual play. unless you guys play for money or something
MVC2 TOURNEY PLEASE!!
lol your favourite mvc2 hero superstar wins another tournament in a game he doesn’t play…
formerly the mvc2 champ, atm spidertao, AKA Tao Pow, aka the legacy of the final obliviation, aka FIST OF THE NORTH STAR Tao Xie’s last tourney win was third strike last year… having come fourth in the last cvs2 tourney and like 90th in the regionals, he finally comes back into the scene with a 1st place in the 16 man guilty gear XX reload tournament this past sunday
the man who organized that shiet and was supposed to win, paul aka sycho was distracted first round and just lost in the losers… cocky navid aka archer v.2.0 expected to come top three but went 1-2 losing to a potemkin and then an anji player
the tournament was 15 men, with one girl, who’s name was cammy… a beautiful fair maiden using ky…
this means that guilty gear xx has more interest than mvc2 lol at least in bc
that means bc is GAY lol
i will make an mvc2 tournament soon
just to let you guys know… not all that i have said in the last couple of paragraphs were true…
:lame:
i hope that one line is true 
but yeah congrats on the win man. when are you stoppin by jz’s again??
anyways, maybe this is of interest…
at space rush arcade in richmond, they got rid of marvel and cvs2 and they still got third strike and guilty gear… my belief is that guilty gear MUST be getting played otherwise it wouldn’t be there
anyways, there’s some alright guys down in richmond fuck
i played this one guy who beat my yun TWICE
fuck i was pissed
and after he beat it the first time, he thought he was hot shit and then picked sean and like got perfected hahaha
but yeah, piss me off
then he asked for no seconds and like beat me after one…
so i had to withdrawl money
and then i played again with yun and lost after a few matches cuz his stupid fucking elena killed me
oh my GOSH
i got beat my elena
MY BABY
lol oh well, so i challenged back with elena and got 8 wins and then he stopped playing
his friend played one too and was just a lil shittier than him
hmm i mean shittier as in not as good as
these guys weren’t bad…
prolly about as good as those short flips at JZ i forgot their names
maybe it’s cuz i’m rusty but i didn’t think the third strike competition was this good down here… maybe when odakyu was still open, the guys were HELLA good or something… but then again… PROBABLY NOT HEHEHEHE
miguel, tell me about these guys man, they’re good against YUN, gumby must go there lots lol
ggxx sucks balls.
why do u think seattle only played it for like a few months?
Are you saying it sucks cause youve played it and didnt like it, or are you saying it sucks because Seattle “doesn’t like it”? Dont knock it till you try it =/
mvc2 tourney ehhh
i’m thurrr
shut the fuck up, ggxx is ass:D
why would i ride on seattle’s nuts?
obviously i’ve played it, i’m not going to say a game sucks without having played it…
i think GGXX is a fun game, but I don’t think its a good game.
damnit why does nobody answer my posts? does anyone know any information on the richmond players? all i remember were shitty marvel players
anyways, although i agree that ggxx isnt as good as marvel. the graphics are amazing and imo it is a better game than third strike and cvs2. it is a very easy game to learn and the learning curve is similar to that of marvels. it is basically mvc1
however the only reason ggxx would suck is because you can not tech throws. that means that the game designers were retarded. considering the fact that the last ggxx tournament had more people in it than the last couple of marvel tournaments, kyle, i would suggest that you pick it up since it is easy to learn and beat up on new people now.
For some reason, correct me if im wrong, i get the feeling you play KOF (from the looks of your avatar), so that automatically brings down your credibility of knowing what games are good.
Summary: KOF is ass.
Tao, I agree… however, the learning curve for GGXX is much more steep for various characters than it was for Marvel 1… You just play with Sol… Sol is the Cable of GGXX… anyone can learn him to a high class, but only good players can master him… Try playing with other characters like Eddie or Venom (hardest to play with in the game)… or try any of the top tier characters (Eddie, Millia, Slayer, Faust)… this game’s learning curve is alot more steep than you give it credit for.
Edit: Kyle: Fair enough.
I would learn GGXX if I had the time and money. I am investing in hockey and school.
Archer: the KOFs are different every year. I’ve heard that 2003 is pretty good. 2000 was the best KOF imo. Since they vary every year, you’re opinion might be changed if u played them all. (unless of course you have)
damnit navid, i just said the learning curve is hella high
argh
besides, i think cable is fucking HARD to use
why do you think i can rape everyone’s cables with my guile but i can’t touch like sentinel?
cuz they’re not using cable CORRECTLY
now, i DON"T think sol is any easier to use than those characters
it’s just that his moves are like the same as old capcom games
so people have an easier time picking him up
if some guy who’s never played street fighter plays ggxx, then he’ll have as hard of a time playing sol as with other characters
besides, sol suits my playing style PERFECTLY
without helpers etc, the thing i like to do the most is jump around into throws and instant invincibility moves (ken, dudley, cammy, all my A grooves)
i also like anticipating a jump and then doing an air combo (elena, chun li, storm, mags, sentinel, cable)
i also like throwing out fireballs which have recovery frames different from average characters (guile)
and my FAVOURITE is to hit someone with a high priority antiair (SPIDERMAN). that is how i learned to play fighting games so therefore, sol is my man.
i wasn’t successful with using ryu or ken or those zangief characters cuz my playing style isn’t very well suited to those types of players. elena was my first successful character in third strike and storm was my first in marvel. both with playing styles that suit my playing style.
Amazing, you are as dumb as I thought. Now tell me which KOF is it?
Now tell me which KOF is it and have you played it?
you run your mouth telling people not to knock on a game until they try it. i own that damn game and that game was just a fad. The only area with a big GGXX base is Texas.
now i want to hear your credibility on which fighting games are good. so tell me, which games do you play and actually grasp the concept on how the game is played?
KOF 2003
played it… played KOF 97,98,99, 2k and 2k3. I actually went competitive in KOF 98 for awhile.
GGXX has a huge base in all of Europe, and the lower states (California, and that area).
I play 3rd Strike, CvS2, and GGXX. I use to know how KOF was played well until i stopped and started 3rd Strike… now i just suck at KOF, but i still know a few things about it… I also played Garou very well when it was out in Circuit Circus, so i was glad to see Gato back… but still, i have to admit, i played it for a little while, and enjoyed it a bit… its not COMPLETLEY horrible… it is one of the better KOFs out there… but still, Being the best game in a series that isnt that great to begin with, isnt something to be proud of.
Your turn.
superluu is a dominator beast!!

no wait
GO HABS GO! GO HABS GO!
GO FLAMES!! BEAT THE CANUCKS !!
GO SENS!!
If you’re getting thrown in GGXX then you’re not changing up your tactics enough… kinda like getting thrown in Marvel. You should be able to see it coming a mile away (like empty jumps, running in too close, also if you block next to them on their wakeup). This is why you’ll barely ever see throws in high-level GGXX vids. There’s no reason for someone to get right in your face without hitting you, that’s a sure sign of a throw coming. So you just hit P or K and combo them, or you could jump with FD which is safer…
Airthrows though, are crazy. They’re some of the fastest moves in the game with just 1-frame of startup, and really easy to land. And then you can always use FD to cancel out the HS that comes out if you miss. Most broken part of GGXX’s fighting system I’d say, though barely anybody uses them here. =/
