AZ Thread. hAZbats start this saturday! 1/21. Check First posts

MK?

Is MK still happening? I thought there was talk of replacing MK with BB?

Also, if you’re interested in MK, you should check out the Test Your Might AZ thread. I posted the link on the last page. We have MK tournaments every other Wed and Sun.

Fuck MK!

What are your crossroads? I’m at Chandler and Ray. Anyone else near the area either carpooling or, lacking that, need a carpool?

anyone got room in there car to give me a ride to the microsoft store tonight?

To echo carn114, a big part of it (for me, at least) is just a lack of general experience with dealing with pressure. Muji and Rick were basically telling me “more low forward,” but it is a bit intimidating given the range of Sakura’s cr.mk. Tthe reason I didn’t ask any questions, even though I considered it, is because I was pretty confident in independently finding my way around things, even if it just ended up with just getting tatsu’d in the corner all day.

Also, I was the guy playing Yang. Shouts out to the random kid playing Evil Ryu with the umeshoryu. Definitely going to Haz’s next weekend, MS Store today hopefully.

Scary cat.

Hey guys, reminder for the event at the Microsoft Store tonight at Scottsdale Fashion Square
9:00 PM start and we are running all those tourneys at once… heh, it is going to be furious in there
I think the pizza shows up at 10PM (do not quote me on that!)

SFAE
Marvel
Tekken
MK

All Xbox 360

See ya.

I know this may be a stupid question, but will it be worth it to drive out to the Microsoft Store tourney if I’m not planning on entering the events? And also, what’s the turnout usually like for things like that?

Oops, my bad…

Looking forward to seeing everyone there, and getting owned in the name of education.

Stupid question, why would you not enter the tourneys? It’s free. That makes absolutely no sense

Because I just started playing last month and I don’t think I’m anywhere near good enough to try. Also don’t have a 360 stick and my PS3 one’s not dual modded.

Yeah so? Plenty of people with sticks to let you use. There’s no excuse. You don’t have to be God, to enter. You enter to learn. Dunno why people are so afraid to lose. You’ll never learn if you are afraid to take losses

I guess you got a point there. No harm in trying, eh? Well we’ll see if there are any spots left by the time I get there.

I’ll see you guys at the tourney tonight. I’mma be entering and hopefully do well.
May the best Dan win.

Is the MS Store event streaming, perhaps?

Damn. just finished up, and noticed the time. good luck guys, and see you all next friday.

I wasn’t anywhere near EVO, and I got sick this week. Damn looks like EVO is causing the scene to blow up, good stuff, hope we can keep even 20% of the new guys playing. I haven’t been out this week to play at all, but what Scott says is true: The best way to learn is just to play no matter what and no matter who; also, the best way to get keep getting better is to get your ass beat. It may not make sense at first, but your own skill level raises as you try to figure out what beats someone better than you.

i plan on staying, but it depends on my ability to get my hands on the equipment needed and how much free time i’ll have that i can dedicate to SF. what goes down regularly in tempe again? i know i asked this in the old thread, but i’m not in the mood to look for it right now.

EDIT: yeah i ended up checking it 10 minutes after i made this post >_<

C’mon man, this stuff was posted up on the last page of the old thread. It would literally take you less time to look for it than it did for you to type the question.

on another note. What were the results of the tournament tonight. I really hate that I wasn’t able to come out for it due to this shithouse cold.

yeah, i ended up checking it and not editing my post. sorry about that.

i hope to see you guys eventually at some gameworks gathering or angelic’s place… or anything else that transpires in tempe or north phoenix… or anywhere i can get a ride to.

Man, I was NOT on my game tonight; it was my first tournament (And it probably showed) so I was hella nervous. I choked about five or six times on the dumbest things. Anyway, congrats to the Honda that won. I’m new to the scene, so I don’t know his name.
