Edmonton 2013 Thread!

GGs today. Thanks to everyone who came out and supported. It was a blasty blast. Also big ups to bee for making into top8 in winners at Toryuken.

Eddy, I found an archive of that Uryo/Bon-chan match from Topanga, have a look. Part 1 here:

Uryo plays random as fuck, betting the house numerous times on raw ex dp and ultra. No idea wtf he was thinking during this match, he plays really impatient and random

though i’m gonna have to mess with that one counterhit far fp setup (you can link off counterhit far fp… as if she needed that shit lol. you can combo off counterhit far rh too but i’ve only found one setup that works, and its on Dudley :/). In the 2nd or 3rd match, he’s got BonSagatto in the corner, setup is cl.mk (on block), far fp (counterhit), c.mk xx whatever. s.lk prolly more reliable, id have to look at the frame data to see if its possible to link c.mk cuz maybe he was just fishing, but s.lk definitely links on counterhit

another thing to look at, check 14:20 or so in that video. theres a setup Bonchan does in the corner after a lk knee knockdown, he does a neutral jump and you’ll see that it stuffs uryo’s c.fp. it’s not a safejump timing because he doesn’t get a counterhit, meaning that sakura’s 4-frame c.fp is already active, but it gets beaten clean by sagat’s neutral jump whichever button that is

we were talking about using instant otoshi (the finisher for hard knockdown after ex tatsu) as a combo ender against sagat because of his tall hitbox, but i’m not sure why uryo does it. i mean, it connects, and thats neat, but doing it the way he does (cl.mk xx tatsu, c.fp xx otoshi) is less damage/stun than a standard tatsu loop, and none of his corner setups seemed particularily effective. You do get a slightly better corner carry without using your meter, but if you do standard loops ending in EX tatsu you get corner from over half the stage away (further than otoshi as combo ender without EX tatsu), and more damage/stun. it’s worth the meter imo, cuz it’s mad hard for sagat to get out of the corner, and the EX tatsu alone has great corner carry. i don’t think i’m going to use this.

Tried to break srk by letting the notifications build up, and it got to about 3500 before it just reset now. Back up we go~

i’ll toss a couple on the pile

i saw that vid a few days ago from tokido’s youtube channel… http://www.youtube.com/user/Tokidoblog.

the only set up i see around 14:20 is after backwards throw lk tiger knee, dash forward… he uses that often. i mostly pay attention to untechable knockdowns

i just want you to pay attention to the fact that his normal beats out sakura’s c.fp clean

Hey Edmonton, I’m going to be in you Friday night!

I don’t know if I want you “in me.” You might have to buy me a 3DS XL first. Pink preferably, the manliest color.

Don’t worry, I’m only going to be in your city to entertain your ear holes and drink all the beers.

Okay, here it is . . . better late than never!

uryo was using some old tech on bonchan… he went all iron fist on his ass

Iron Fist is the real king of muay thai

I’ll see if I can make it, DV8 is super close to my place. If not ill see you at bar duels!

true dat… double true

Games at my place tonight

jon, what time r u off today? maybe i’ll come by ur work

Is this safe on block? Seems like if you’re hitting air Tiger Kick from that height it would be really punishable. I guess you could just roll out as well.

I’m here till 5. Come at 445

Hey. I’m going to duck out tonight; not feeling so hot. Apologies. I didn’t hear from anyone about rides, though, so I assume everyone’s covered. I’ll try to make it out either next week or the week following.
