sorry ray we just left like that.but i dont have a mic anymore and we were in a rush…so yea…anyways we are gaming right now…its me, david,rol and ian…
and we are drinkin tequila with the worm…lol man this is awesome!
so whos all partnered up for that tournament. i wont be going unless i have a partner that i have played before. i dont want to get stuck with someone different.
I’m not tournament ready; I can barely keep myself together when I’m playing online, much less a tournament filled with people better than I am. I’d be a nervous wreck.
Well as far as I know: pat and Ray, roldolfo and Chris, Ian and myself, and that’s all I know of so far. I think Demarcus, my brother and some of the ctc kids might need partners.
lol thanx but no thanx, not saying i have anything against De or the ctc folks or whoever the hell else but i juss don’t work well with teams especially for tours, so u can count me out on this one lol…ill play teams for kicks but as far as competition and tours go, count me out…
i didnt realize my last post (before the post i juss made) drew so much raw and negative attention, i mean granted yea for some of course theyre gonna think a character is simple but i’ve been using blanka since launch so trying to adjust using motion and trying to do focus cancels is gonna be a pain in the ass for me cuz i don’t rely or use it that much when i use blanka, ("currently im testing Rufus) if i can get the cancels down pact maybe i can work well with him. so for me rufus is a pain tu use, especially when playing online…but you already know the PSN Id i still got enough room for folks who wanna add me and spar with me, so i can be able tu adjust more with him rather than raising the difficutly to the max on practice mode tu see part of the potiential Rufus actually haves…so maybe eventually i can say he’ll be easy to use but until that day comes hes a difficult person tu use (in my point of view)…tho i am quick learner so i may know how tu pull of the typical and advanced moves and combos alot quicker than expected… i have no life i have free time so like i said if you wanna spar the PSN ID is availabe add me if u like
Good games Ian and Chris… your Gen is garbage! :lol: Yeah, you’ll be feeling that worm in the morning. I told you all… I’ve been putting some work in on Dhalsim, but for the past 3 to 4 days I haven’t. Pretty amazing for now playing in a while huh?
Gilgamesh: Don’t be afraid… that is what going to tourneys are for. To get you use to them. Ask Ray… he did really well at the last tourney and the kids had the butterflies and all. It’s the atmosphere you have to get use to and no remedy to that, than to actually attend one and experience it for yourself. How many tourneys you going to miss until you ‘think’ you’re ready?You just got to go and do it. Get it out the way and learn from it.
- shakes head at Brandon * ahh well…sometimes loners need a little assitance as well ya know…but eh to each his own…and yea ian is gonna feel that worm…anyways i want the team tourney to be on friday but some people want it on thursday…whichever…everyone needs to let me know so we know what is going on…if not then i might just say f-it lol but yea…i will continue to train so that way i can become victorious with my partner in the next tourney…and wreck shop when we hit up Austin…
Work into dhalsim? Show me!

Versus Ray
Me and Ray played a decent amount of games yesterday, and I am putting my opinions here for him to read. First let me start off with the bad. You kept trying to guess ultra; never guess the ultra because if your opponent blocks or it whiffs then we can potentially get a knockdown on you which is not good for Rog. Stop constantly backing up, I swept you so many times when you tried to do this, if you are going to turtle then do so by gradually backing up and stopping frequently to block. Stop being so stubborn, when I anti air you, that means that I am looking for the jump again, so after the first time you should stop or I’ll get two or three DP’s in a row. You must learn your footsies much better, pressing random buttons is not footsies. Try stepping in range of your opponents longest poke, and backing out of it to where you are just outside the range of it, if they whiff something then punish it. You should be using shorts and jabs in your opponents range to make them whiff something so you can punish. Get your plinking down more because jab, jab, jab, sweep is the easiest thing in the world to do. Mix up your tick throws, because you use c.sh the try to walk up grab every time. Use TAP more. More block strings less tap jab. Try doing jab, jab, then walk back slightly waiting for your opponent to whiff something the c.strong dash punch.
First off let me start with the bad… sooooo wheres the good? lol…
Anywhos, ray??? WTF are you doing??? dont tell me ur doing day one rog shit… why are you backing up anyways? if you are going to play turtle rog, ROG DOES NOT MOVE! rog moves when he is FORCED to move. just sit there, honestly sitting there is more nerve racking to an opponent than u might think. Im done with work now im on leave until i fly out to germany in 3 weeks. so if u wanna get some practice in ill be more than happy to oblige. And pat is right, pressing random buttons is not footsies. you can learn more about that by going back to a wedsneday night fights stream from about a week ago, valle talks about it and shows some examples. you can also check the main page a few posts back for an article on it. OR u can watch me do it over and over again. ROg has great pokes u kinda gotta decide depending on how the match is going…
Id like to hear your pov of the matches you played against pat. also guys if at all possible record your matches, it does help to watch them ull get a much clearer understanding of what ur doing and whats actually going on.
- Guess ultra - got it, stopping it
- Backing up - i honestly totally forgot
- Stubborn jumping - ok stop
- Footsies + random button pressing - ok learn
- jab jab jab sweep - omfg you dont even know how well i was doing that earlier…but got it
- tick throw - i wasn’t using grab as much as i normally want to
- TAP more - training mode
- block strings - got it
Alright thanks for the input, although you know I don’t do random ultras and etc. but I still did it so you can hammer me for it
It was good to be reminded to stay still and etc since I forgot all about those tips, i appreciate the reminder after I took such a long break w/ YGO =[
There really wasn’t any good from me in those games, I played sloppy.
Well I already spent too much time on SRK when I should be playing, so send another invite tonight and post some more stuff
lolol ahhh don’t kill me
I was looking up modded SE Sticks on youtube just because I happened to snag one off of ebay the other day. I coincidentally found this vid and started watching it.

I saw Mike and was like, That can’t be him -.-…then I saw PAT SIGNING and I was like WTF!! Then to finalize that this was all of ya’lls work, Ray sitting there by the bed and I just was like pretty crazed out lol.
You guys did an outstanding job on that stick, I like it a lot.
Brandon you should go. But before you go get a character down. Don’t go up there picking guys you just been testing. I made that mistake at the last tourney. Get one guy down then move around. Besides going to tourneys helps you see how you rank up to people you don’t play with. It’s kinda easy to figure out how someelse u know stands up to you( unless your Gavin can’t figure that guy for shit.)
=] I love that stick
Just your friendly reminder that Ian smells funny…
yawness
