Calgary Thread 2012

Umvc3 is staying. It’s not going anywhere.
Maybe it was just a quiet time for gamer in general.

I don’t play the game myself, but I enjoy seeing high level play and I wouldnt like the umvc3 scene disappear.

The more people playing fighting games in general the better.

Sorry mk9, u didn’t make the cut though. :confused:
I think theres like only 1 dude in Calgary that will play that game seriously.
It’s takes 2 to bromo.

Lol I can only get around 2k PP cuz I always troll with other characters. Oh Derrky you should try bison and just headstomp for an entire match. Its the best when they don’t know how to stop you

i actually got beat by someone who did that the other day… how annoying… :stuck_out_tongue:

(i’m a scrub)

I enjoyed mk but no scene here for it. Then agian mk teams tourny was the only tubby tourny i won. So maybe thats why i enjoyed it lol

was that the mk team tourney where the ermac player creamed me and jamie in grand finals?

Cody’s cr.MK slide does a great job going under all of Bison’s devil reverse/headstomp nonsense.

Basically, if they headstomp at you, try to b+MP the headstomp part. If they flip over with a devil’s reverse and try to come back down on your head, cr.MK them. You cover both options this way. b+MP easily beats even EX headstomp. Sometimes cr.MK will actually go under and past them, if they don’t space it properly, which means you get a beefy punish. Pro tip!

nj.fp/hk all day every day you silly headstompin’ mothafuckaakakakaaaa!

This is changing come Jan 29th, I’ll be bringing MK and people that enjoy playing it to Dickens that day. I’m the only dude in Calgary that plays it seriously that also likes to hang with you guys and play streets. It’s tough to break down the walls, but it is what it is. Pot Bonus’s will be included out of my own pocket for Any MK mini tourny I may run, these could range anywhere from XBLive Point cards to $50 bucks cash. So don’t be shy if you wanna play :slight_smile:

The dude who took second at Canada Cup ( who admittedly chocked to Jwong after going 5-0 and then losing 3-0 after then against him lol ) will be moving out here next week. This has sparked the interest of a few couch potato MK’s in this city.

Training for Final Round and EVO!!! lol WinterBrawl got the axe from me because it doesn’t look like it’s going to be that big compared to Final Round, MK wise anyways, way more HYPE in Atlanta,

See you all this sunday though, i need to get some of dat KOF13 in against humans. :slight_smile:

[LEFT]here is my artist’s impression of what its like to play Ultimate marvel[/LEFT]

yep. I was his scorpion partner. When jamie beat me with raiden. I knew my buddy was gonna cream him. Ermac had better moves to fight raiden

Hahah I’m at the “I can do anything!” stage

speaking of Dickens, i’ll be holding a foosball tournament next Sunday. 2 vs 2 so grab a partner.
the foosball machine costs $1.25 per game. i will bring a prize for the winner.

Oh yeah. Super Mario Bros Crossover version 2.0 trailer.

here’s my artist’s rendition of what it’s like to play SF with marvel for comparison

I respect u and ur game man.

Im not attack mk9 scene or anything. But I’m just gonna say this, don’t put money into this outta ur own pocket.
I know ur passion for this game is pure, but before u do so. Think of amount of entrants.
Even 6 peeps isn’t makin the cut.

Much luv

Stay in school Andy.

Why not though, I play these games for fun, not to make money. If it offers a little incentive and raises the compete level of people that want to play then thats good. Also if it gives some one a reason to try and play why not?

It’s all in good fun, and I would only put a bonus in if we hit 8, and 8 for MK in this City would be GodLike :slight_smile:

I’m so down for Foos Ball, that sounds like fun.

i’ll enter Jimmy’s tournament.

WHO WANTS SOMEADIS SCORPION

yeah, andy stay in school duuude
get them grades. i know we joke a lot about it but it’s for serious… shit is super important. your post secondary life depends on it… i really regret not getting excellent grades because it hindered the possibility of getting into a good college significantly. and it’s only because i didn’t try, i was busy with other “stuff”

… mostly babes. haha

I might get a part-time for weekends depending on how the interview goes this week, so that could mean no Dickens for me. I don’t think I can make it to Tubbies anymore due to time issues, so that means Mike’s board game night on Saturdays is probably the only time I can hang out.

Fear not though, I will at least make sure to secure January 28 and 29 so I can go to Edmonton.

Did official MK9 majors held team tournaments? It seemed like noone took advantage of the 2v2 mode, which is a shame since that would have made for some epic times. I hope tourney organizers actually take advantage of that with SFxT.

I would like to see KoF team tournies where each person controls 1 character on that team. I think that would be pretty hilarious.

ugh im terrible at foosball. i’ll get in on a pool tourney if ricky is on my team tho. haha.
