DG, thanks for the Athena primer man, can’t wait for the next part. :tup:

BTW, about Tungs MM, really good tips concerning the combo aspects of it. I got his dive kick into it down now from front and cross up, got the anti-air one down, but the standing D, f+C, MM one I CANNOT get past 24 hits. I tried altering the timing on many of the hits and I can’t do it. Is there any additional trick to that one besides what you have described already??

One last question if you don’t mind. What is the best set up for Washizukas QCBx2+AC super? Meaning, whats a good b&b combo to down them that allows me to charge it up a bit for a better hit percentage? Thanks.

Jester- About the comboing from St. D to F+C to MM, it follows the same rules, thats really just about it…I found out really that the controller you are using makes a HUGE DIFFERENCE. I’m talking with my Shitty Ass Akuma SF controller I could NOT do MAX Muscleman at all but with the Saturn PS2 controller everything is as easy as 1-2-3!!! So consider that because Joey before with his new controller I recall saying he couldnt even do MAX MM so yes the controller can make a difference keep that in mind…button wise because it is about timing… So maybe it needs worn in some more…because esp with St. D to F+C…thats a major way to combo MM…why?

Because you will probably land that more than the Dive Kick to MM in a HIGH LEVEL TOURNAMENT SITUATION… why is this? Because it will come off GCFS…therefore replenishing whatever gauge you used to GCFS by the time you begin MAX Muscleman technically…so obviously worth the risk and then some.

Best setup for Wash’s Unblockable Super…too many!!! He even has ways to combo of it to be honest I took notes off a Japanese combo I saw that I recall and gotta open the game to play it…I gotta go babysit for a couple of hours and I can post it up when I get back.

Like I been saying people since Jester asked I will work on that Athena Primer II. Also for Jester since he really seems like he wants to learn I will BREAK MY BACK TO TEACH HIM GODDESS ATHENA. :tup:

I will work on it off and on and next week when I get back from work trips I will post it up.

Thanks a lot dude, much appreciated. If you recall I was more active in the NGBC thread last year around this time. Problem is work has been hell this past year and I really didn’t have time to do much in terms of in depth gaming. Thankfully I’m kinda in the clear again and trying to catch up. Your matches against Mago certainly helped spark my interest in this game again especially. Brushing up on my Tekna again as well, and next week…World Heroes Gorgeous baby. :tup:

Goddess Athena Primer II-

Things you may need to know about Goddess Athena moreso-

-As Beast of Fire says, you can knock her out of the fire on startup and a fierce enough combo will knock her out of it as well. But if you anticipate this you will space yourself correctly as I do to ?Activate? (What I will call putting the fire on from here on out) If you watch closely I Space myself before Activating if I need to?which in turn causes the opponent to rush me to try and use stuff like Bigs Cr. DxxBison Torpedo (Don?t whiff versus Tung BITCHES!! :razz:) or Kims cr.b to stop it…PUHLEASSE…I don?t fear that shit anymore…since seeing it May 5th I?ve come up with quite a few ways to get around it! Cough TRIAD I will give you one of my older ways right now-
-Bait their poke and release the Flame to them! This will not only hurt them but will make them think twice about rushing to combo low. This will slow them down. There are MANY other ways that I will elaborate on later.

Also know that Mermaid Kick, Reflect, or Throws will cause the Fire in Activation to dissipate…so DONT USE THEM WHILE IN ATHENAS FLAME…

Something else to know about the fire- It has an add on you can only do if you have 2 supers total. So say you have 2 supers, then you again access to the Fire Add on and the Tornado Add on- Which both are FIRE TORNADOES. The difference? The Fire Tornado from the flame (qcfx2 C after Activation) stays on you for a little while, and should it hit it launches and you are right there to juggle/reset after it (Watch one of my matches vs. Mago or my first ever match vs. Cajunstrike in NEC7)

-The Tornado Fire Tornado (Yeah sounds redundant, do it by first doing qcfx2c, then doing the Fire Tornado with qcfx2 A), travels full screen but also launches the opponent for comboability. This is really the ONLY reason to use the tornado Activation AT ALL.
So with that being said why did I do it in the match you saw versus Mago? BECAUSE I CAN!!! :razz: Seriously…it was for flash to ensure I blew him the fuck to smithereens for the win!!! I got other methods though but it was for flash, KIDS DON?T TRY THIS AT HOME!! :rofl:

Now What can you do after a Fire Tornado Launcher? Let me give you some things to wet your appetite-

With Athena-Kisarah one of my old patented Manual Tag Combos-

(In corner 3 costs 3 meters) Starting with Athena Activate Flame, Fire Tornado, tag in Kisarah, finish with qcf+bxxCheerleader Kick super.

Sure Tung can do more for less of course, but it looks flashy and I will not hesitate to finish someone off flashy if I can Looks good on camera baby!!! :devil: :rofl:

More stuff:
-Reset with a or whatever you want really
-Shield Flip with C- Time it right so it hits, then they cannot tech on wakeup so you get to choose what you do next
-Mermaid Kick Super- One of my most recent May 5th things I did and Shiki saw in person was after a Fire Tornado launcher, juggle with her qcbhcf+K Mermaid Kick Super. Very useless otherwise but I look for flashy ways to finish and humiliate people…I love doing it…I don?t just try to win?I try to EMBARRASS!!! :lovin: Give me the chance and I will do this too!!!
-You can also juggle with her Lion Flame Super (qcbhcf+p) in the corner as well.

Now onto other things
The ultimate Embarassment of all- PEGASUS SUPER. Level three, her EXCEED IN SVC CHAOS, I use this if I really got the upperhand and am seeking to take away someones dignity? Off a throw where I anticipate them not teching, I will finish them off if they are low on health with the Pegasus Super (qcfhcb+BD). Also after a Deadly Assault and low on health and I got three meters (rarely) I will finish people off with this!!!

Brutal I know but in the battlefield EVERYONE IS AN ENEMY!!

This is enough for now for Primer II of Goddess Athena.

EDIT: **FYCN guess who is applying the rape with Andrew first match?? LOL. :rofl:

4627

The REAL DG tricks? Activate a full screen away and then run at the opponent. :sweat:

Whack!

I reworded it for you. You don’t need to type so much when it’s so easy to read into your statements.

This is weak man. I’ve never hidden something when someone has asked - none of us have. I’ve volunteered information, on my own characters (positive or negative) and especially for fighting Tung recently (before EVO).

We don’t care if you read it what we post. Ask away. :wgrin:

4628

Activate from full screen my friend is called spacing and baiting…

But believe me there’s more.

What reason would I have to be scared??? Triad doesn’t intimidate me AT ALL…I respect them…but scared? HELL NO… :rofl: I am just new school…Plus you see me giving Jester everything he can stomach…hell because he honestly wants to know how to play her…I will teach him EVERYTHING ABOUT ATHENA…

Once again I aint breaking my back if it aint worth it…thats my bottom line…

I’m the same way in EVERY GAME…its a mentality of thought…besides I’m that way in SST when lord knows I have no reason to even WONDER about The Triad in that game… :rofl: :lol:

Alex I got a question for you…answer this since the last time NO ONE REPLIED…

How do you beat the Triad in NGBC? :rofl: :rofl:

Sarcastic question aint it???

I want an answer…tell us all…LOL. :devil:

Heres more since its free reign to ask…

  1. Whats Alexs weaknesses in NGBC/KOFXI? :lovin:
  2. Whats Lu’s weaknesses in NGBC?
  3. Whats Phils weaknesses in NGBC?
  4. What character gives you all the hardest time in NGBC? (BESIDES TUNG!!! :rofl:)

I’ll be waiting for answers to these…FROM THE TRIAD NO ONE ELSE.

EAGERLY…

After every tournament get ready…I’m asking YOU GUYS…and I want answers from YOU GUYS…

:lovin:

As T.O. would say “Get your popcorn ready!”

:smokin:

Stone- That dramatic finish between you and Tony is like towards the end of the Second SST Link.

“Double Fatality!!” Instant EVO Classic!!! :rock: That was a hillarious moment though!! :rofl:

4629

Jester- Check your PMS…:lovin:

SST Vid edit- And yes to those that cant believe things…there is more SST footage coming… You all wouldnt believe how hounded I get for vids…if you all did you would BE JUST LIKE ME ABOUT THEM.

Its like even putting vids up AINT ENOUGH…immediately someone complains because its “only 3 vids.”

Well if this keeps up I wont be “hiding stuff anymore boyo” I’m gonna speak my mind EXACTLY WHAT I FEEL…
:rofl: :lol:

“Sorry I didnt know!”

Well now you do…what ever happened to patience AND APPRECIATION FOR PUTTING UP FREE SHIT IN THE FIRST PLACE people??? Even if it is three vid links would you rather have three links or fifty billion youtube links of short vids??
Goddamn I tell you what you cant please everyone and FUCK TRYING. :tdown:

:annoy:

Some of you act like its your fucking birthright to demand vids…

:rofl: :lol: :rofl:

4630

When you have waited more then 1/2 a year then yes.! :looney:

O and you never answered my questions a few pages back about the east vids. Because i know people have been asking me to ask you :annoy:

4631

The encoder is taking too long for even me to stomach and I’m pretty patient believe me…he has said he is going to send them to me…but I’ve heard this forever…and even then he would be sending them to me…meaning I still gotta get them encoded meaning I’m back to square one STILL, instead of square negative 50…where I am now in regards to EVO East vids…

Also ontop of that its not like hes doing it for free…**we made an agreement and I fulfilled my part of the agreement **for the EVO East vids…so theres more to the story…

As I say…this will NOT happen again mark my words!!!

-Dark Geese

4632

I think its time you start encoding them yourself. :frowning:
