Agreed man. I think there should be some rules established between the two players. Is this a FT10? FT20? Is it character locked? etc. I’m sure Art will go with Necro (being his main and all and probably his most confident). Also, for the poor dudes with no time someone needs to get a video camera on this. It would be great to see each player in their element and how they play together. For the record Ryan has a pretty decent Necro himself…mirror match anyone?
i thought the arayes v ryan thing was just a big joke…
oops.
I know that you are an intelligent guy by speaking with you. I could never imagine you becoming a sheep. your akuma is becoming beastly by the second.
I appreciate the words, bud.
all I know of me ryan is that in the amount of games we have played, I have edged him out by one or two. that’s all we can go by at this point.
I’m used to ridicule. I am someone who had to work hard for everything I got, and continue to do so. no problems there.
and think of where I am getting the ridicule from- guys like hold dat and loiusphier who can not hold a candle to my gameplay and never have. this is not saying they are bad or anything, but nothing near my level and its insulting to think otherwise. but other than that LMAO
I’m also sick and tired of having to ‘‘prove’’ myself to anyone. I don’t roll that way. I only need to prove anything to myself.
if some players think I am good…cool. if others think I suck…cool. no problems. the thing that is stupid is that the very people that do say someone sucks is on a lower level and also too scared to play against you. these guys mean very little in the overall scheme of things I tell you what.
go watch Troll Hunter…that dude is me after all them big, hungry trolls.
Okay dude, here’s the thing before you whiteknight Artayes.
He’s always acted like he’s the shit. Since day 1 of GGPO he’s acted like this. And since day 1 he’s played like that and I’ve beaten him many times. Do I feel a sense of accomplishment from beating him online? Not really because what is there to gain by beating someone who relies entirely on online gimmicks? I’d rather beat someone who put up a legit challenge. It’s like that scene in Enter the Dragon where Bruce fights the end boss in that room of mirrors, and Bruce realizes the gimmick the guy is using and smashes the mirrors and kicks his ass. Kinda’ the same thing here, though I’m no Bruce in real life.
So I’ve had experience with this guy. I’m no sheep. I’m not joing the hate train. Or the troll brigade. Or the rage mage for that matter. I’m just telling it like it is. My .2 dealing with this guy.
Also; Artayes has continuously talked shit through 29 some odd pages. 29 pages of this moron going on about how beastly he is online and challenging Ryan and others to online only matches…
How can you defend this guy? How can you support him at all?
People are calling him out, pointing out how bad he is, showing point-by-point his online gimmicks **AND **challenging him to an **OFFLINE **set and Artayes response is was and continues to be: Play me online…
It isn’t until the 2nd to last post he’s made where he actually admits he plays badly online but still goes on about how beastly he is offline. Come the fuck on man.
If he just said “Hey, I’m a damn good Necro. I will beat you 10-0 at Evo. I am going to win.” that would’ve ended it. But no, he continues to talk shit and has never once committed. What does that tell you?
Seeing Artayes get beaten down offline has been long coming. This is like watching Cartman getting the shit beaten out of him by Wendy.
Forget the mm. I’ll bet anyone of you that he wont go. I don’t even care about this garbage player. I don’t challenge scrubs to mm, but this guys attitude is beyond horrible. How anyone can give this guy props is beyond me. Since I started playing, I have never come across someone as delusional as him. The made up stories are ridiculous . His constant name dropping of this dj booty guy is creepy. Anyone that knows me in real life knows I’m a nice guy. I actually would feel bad taking this chumps money. Oh well.
you want to talk shit, troll, that’s fine, but don’t lie about it.
the fact about our matches- he has beaten me ONCE. I was using Slam Dance…he won…left the room and has refused to play me since.
before this I beat him every game and badly. he got pissed, talked shit ever since.
he won ONE time and felt accomplished by it, just like hold dat. sigh don’t believe the hype.
you guys should have your money match in Alaska
Rumble in the North
I’ll bring the setup and the babes
what made up stories? elaborate
so you are backing out of this? I already knew you would do that. after I kicked you ass online I would figure you would not want to get utterly embarrassed offline.
you a nice guy??? you were in a room playing newbs and taunting them constantly. you are an ass.
that’s the thing about you, ryan. you talk how high and mighty you are, yet you will only play new players and players that are just not very good to boast your ego. you are a pussy. you always will be. this I already know and don’t need convincing otherwise.
face it. you are a newb smasher and I am a legend killer.
I’m not backing out of anything. You’re not even going and I don’t care.
If you’re there we will play. I’m leaving this thread forever now. My brain cannot handle you.
He only plays new players? That’s how he got 10th dan at gamespot versus right?
Seriously are you on crack or something?
sorry for double post but really…
I just had to quote this again.
people make no sense. this dude says he does not care about me, as a garbage player, yet plays a majority of his games with new players and not so decent players. and also, I have beaten this guy MORE than he has beaten me. why you guys think he so mad?? LMAO but yeah, I’m a garbage player… WELL, PARDON ME FOR WINNING
wow just wow
I always thought that 3s players were some of the most intelligent gamers of the bunch, maybe we are and it is just one scarey, dumb world we live in.
Why don’t you just stfu with the shit talk and agree to mm him at evo? Seriously…
the majority of the time I have seen him on xbox this is definitely the case. he only plays players he far exceeds, at least online.
good for him getting 10th dan. he has an accomplishment. now when I beat him, at least he will still have that accomplishment to fall back on.
So do Eskimo’s really send off their elderly on iceberg to starve to death? I watched the movie North so I’m left confused…
your brain needs to step it up…dumbass
I’ve been noticing this as well over the last week or two as well. Weird spikes in lag out of nowhere, etc. I was dropping all sorts of things yesterday.
Damn it Dander, play me a few sets before you leave the world of 3s!
Personally I’m hoping to have a bunch of money matches with good players at EVO. I like the idea of sandbag insurance and my tourney experience is minimal so the pressure to perform will be a welcome challenge.
Lastly, does any of this whole mutual tirade resemble the Kai vs Fatbear thing that happened back in 2009?
It reminds me more of Dark Prince and/or DSP talking shit about Pyrolee.
Lol DSP talking shit on Pyro?
I’m sure you saw that Dr. Subzero show where pyrolee (small p, all one word, lol!) alluded to the conflict you mention, I think. That whole show was hilarious. I can only imagine how this Artayes vs Ryan argument would have gone down if it was Artayes vs pyrolee instead :wow:
This reminds me of that pyrolee vs justin wong hype that was spectator instigated a few weeks after evo2k4.
The logistics aren’t what’s important at this point. We know Ryan mains Chun, I don’t see why he would NOT use her. I mean, personally I have many reasons for him not to use her, namely because she is a top tier piece of shit whore that is leagues above the rest of the cast which in turn really only shows how much time you’ve put into the game and not how far you’ve really come and Artayes is going to be picking Necro. The match is already in Ryan’s favor considering Ryan’s Chun doesn’t have to actually move due to the slow nature of Necro’s attacks when playing offline and Necro isn’t exactly known for his strong presence. Seriously, this match isn’t even going to be decided by the individual players’ skill because this is one of those 7-3’s wtf akuma hax was talking about. Online Chun is good, sure, especially if you’ve got enough experience to anticipate well, but offline Chun with 7 years on your back, a daily astro city training regiment, time in the Japanese Hyperbolic Time Chamber AND the highest level comp available in the states on a regular basis (cue denjinicity) is just a little more than simply holding down+back until the problem goes away. I went online to talk Artayes out of it simply because I don’t know too many players that would be willing to put up 500 bucks (not including travelling expenses) on a Chun vs Necro match but when we started playing something took over and I couldn’t tell him anything. I guess I didn’t want to disrespect him in front of his friends and I also didn’t believe he’d take my word on the whole matter. That’s still a lot of money, though.
Shit man, if I go to Vegas, I would play you for like a 100 bucks. Not saying you didn’t prove that you know the game, but I didn’t so much see an understanding of the game the way Japanese play and years at FFA/Denjin could’ve taught a person. I understand how easy it could be to say something like that speaking out from within but you really just don’t know. We don’t just have the denjin/ffa heads making us better, dude! They just helped us with 3s but in regards to the super - Street Fighter - we’ve had THE BEST from EVERY GAME playing with us from day one. Watts, Valle, Sneddon (GhettoDon), MutantXP, HungBee, EdMa, etc. Well, I had them from day one. The list goes on, bro. We’ve had every flavor in this game. So many flavors in fact, that I stopped trying to look for new shit because cool new shit would just happen on the regular. You aren’t going to be fighting Ryan, dude, just like if you and I were to play (offline) you wouldn’t be fighting me, as much as I’d like for that to be the case, but you are going to be fighting the collective elite. I distinctly remember playing you that one night with ghostaga and igloo and losing the first round because I was a little impetuous, which is very much like me, ask anyone. But then I said okay, so I have to fight artayes, the lag, and the urge to go fucking nuts on him because the lag won’t let me play. Then I had to shake off the latter to avoid a bad case of circular logic so I decided to just walk around your movements. I found the spots and I stayed safe but whenever I would try to parry your dive kicks or your overhead chops I’d eat a combo or a hit. Those were the only areas where I felt like you had one on me. I remember being so close to your game, in fact, that you would whiff your moves an inch from my face. Offline, I counter poke/uppercut shit like that and if you try to do it with anything other than jump back > down+mp you are going to eat a super as well. Then, there goes your footing. You don’t think Ryan can do it if I can do it? I’ll be the first to admit Ryan’s Chun can out footsie me any day and I feel like I out footsied you that night, online no less.
I don’t think I won more than a single match that night vs you, ghostaga or igloo but don’t let your desire for victory cloud your judgement and don’t let that be a testament of our skill. If anything, take into consideration the fact that I’ve only been playing online for a few months. I basically spent months, re-learning MY play for offline and offsetting it by 3, then 4, then 5, then 6 frames. Which also meant, I couldn’t spend more time learning how the rest of the world plays the game. I really feel that’s saying something.
Be bold, not brave.
Do you think staring at the back of a dollar bill and having some epiphany about the eye on the back is going grant you the knowledge of the great mystics and put you above the illuminati? Fuck. No. 3s was based around the play of our predecessors and it’s those same priors that let us, west coasters, stand on their shoulders. Right now, it’s not even me that’s speaking to you, it’s mighty fucking Mike Watson. That mother fucker is controlling me from the god realm right now.
At this point, I feel like this was a collective effort to goad him into the poor house simply because he’s confident in his abilities and wouldn’t let a bunch of no faces tell him he’s not good at the game he loves. Fuck that, man, that’s why I wrote this.
But just the same I have to write a counter-argument so you guys can see that I’ve thought about this a little more than the time it took to write this post.
I went to Ryan’s house a few weeks ago and we played some good casuals. I had a lot of rust to brush off but I think that’s just my body and not so much my mind as I was able to tech grabs pretty well most of the night. I was even teching kara-grabs. That is my greatest weakness, btw, teching grabs. Let alone teching kara-grabs. I saw the skill because I came across situations that I wasn’t too familiar with or didn’t remember then (first time offline in a long time). I thought maybe I lost track of one of the steps in there or maybe this was a completely new set up that just looked familiar because of the moves being put to use and it was just an error in sequence approximation on my part. Maybe I was being hasty again given Ryan’s new celebrity but whatever it was, Ryan pinned me for a 3 count. The point here isn’t that he beat me one time with Chun when I was trying, it was that I didn’t know what went wrong. That hasn’t happened to me in years and THAT was indication enough of the Japanese Chun. It was no where near as bad as it was when I played Nuki, (that mother fucker baited a high parry with a standing jab, I parried and then he followed with crouching jab into super. I don’t even know how I managed to walk up that close to him but it happened. Once again, the Japanese Chun) but I know for a fact it was simply because I didn’t walk far enough into the cave of wonders this time.
tl;dr Save money. Necro slow, Japanese Chun SUPER STRONG, pseudo-Japanese Chun STRONG.
