Kaillera Garou: Mark of the Wolves Tournament 9/24/06

Grah…another tourney without a win X.X… That makes all of them ;/

BAH! I’m still up for this. Good games to everyone. And I suggest you do the tournament later rather than sooner, 'cause if you do these tournies too quickly, they just aren’t tournies anymore, they’re more like random match squeduals. The excitement of a tournament and proving yourself worthy is just plain gone, since you can lose in a tourney, just go “Oh well”, instead of how you SHOULD be reacting; losing and going “CENSORED!! I ALMOST HAD HIM!! GRAH!!1”.

Seriously, doing tourneys every week/month just makes it that less important. Isn’t that what tournies are about? Being and important schedual of matches with heated battles with prizes and bragging rights on the line?

And then there’s the fact that if you do tournies too often, it takes out another important aspect of it; seeing serious improvement between players. With weekly tournies it’s barely noticeable. Let the players train and get better!

Then again, I should’ve posted this in one of the tourney threads that are actually, you know, frequent.

I’d say November is better than October for me too. I got a lot going on in October. One word of advice though, it might be nice to have a standard rule set available for the next tourney. I noticed we had a handfull of people that got pulled in the day of, and it would have been nice to say, hey look here before we start. I’m assuming J_Will was one of those people pulled in, as our match was a complete nightmare to setup (upped T.O.P. levels, friends specing, switching chars after a win). And I even got really pissed at one point when his buddy who was watching started to give him tips… so my own rule for the future is NO SPECS in my matches period. If people want to see what happened, they can watch the input recordings.

On another topic… whining really doesn’t help. Unless it’s about a glitch or some extranious factor that truely effected the out-come of the match. Hell I had to play Garcia in my 2nd round, the dude is a freakin’ monster with Terry. I was lucky enough to win a single round. Perhaps next tourney I can make it out of the first bracket. :slight_smile:

P.S. I still want to know what the procedure is for when a player lags out. I mean let’s say it’s the final match, round three, and it’s all tied up (obviously). Player 1 has 85% health, and Player 2 has 5% health, and someone desyncs? Is that round played again? Is that entire matchup played again? Does the win just go to Player 1?

P.P.S. Can anyone give me some insight on corner traps? Seriously, Garcia and this other guy I met online Benihime (or something) were able to put some serious hurt on me by repeating various attacks, in quick succession, in the corner which forced me into a constant block state. I just couldn’t retaliate or escape.

d+ab when youre getting cornered with Terry’s guardstring.

Because I kick you fucking ass like always you said that now :lovin: :lovin: :lovin:

Garcia remember something… I know you:smokin: :smokin: :smokin: (despues que pasaste por mi escuela ahora te crees gente probre nio:smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

te falta mucho todavia)

OMG! soo mad, I just found it, a day after, grrr!!!
I’ll be waiting for the next one!

Thanks, is guardstring the technical term for that kind of combo? I want to look some up so I can record them, then have the CPU play them back at me to try and work my way out of them.

*Guard crush string

Maybe you should get a better grasp of the english language before you start throwing your ego around. I’m not sure you understood what I said, but you seem to have indirectly answered it.
But you opened the gates with a response like that, so I’m ready whenever you wanna get served by low tier characters.

Yeah Right! well you can say whatever you want but remember i wasnt the one avoiding matches and saying im the champ(only to us Fernan and I). And say anything you would like cause quite frankly to me you are just a predictable opponent and even though you can barely know how to play garou i gotta say you used to be better before but know you get own by me and even by a new blood who just learn how to play the game in 2 weeks while he was living here with me in NY (fernan) what a shame.

(despues que pasaste por mi escuela ahora te crees gente probre nio te falta mucho todavia):smokin: :smokin: :smokin: That i still got to learn a lot LOL! Bro wake the fuck up im way more better than you. You are the one who got to learn a LOT ask for advice how to use kevin or even grant cause you still believe you can beat everybody with the same shit over and over (remember people learn patterns) especially yours cause you do the same strategy and the same shit.

Storm aka gato 23 hes better than you at least he does something different but you heh i dont think so!

Wait for my comeback cause right now i got problems to solve.

Ill leave the next tournament to whoever wins it. I hope you win and post your (inp)matches about it cause you only upload them when you win fucking loser!

I hope you can keep talking shit like that next time I play with you if you can get the internet back :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: I hope you get it… :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: (recuerda que fueron muchos los golpes que cojiste pobre niño eso fue sin haber jugado antes cuando te gane en la primera ronda y no te contradigas tu mismo piensa bien antes de escribir y lee tu post de nuevo en cuanto a lo de fernan te solte PALOMO!!!) (NO BESMOS EN KAILLERA SI ES QUE TIENES INTERNET)

Undisputed.

That you beat me? that may be true i guess LOL!. And now your talking like noob cause the only thing you remember is when you used to win, now you dont remember when ppl smoke your ass all the time what happened to that?

Im not even saying things to contradict myself, and i think you are the one who needs to learn how to read NOOB.

Indeed!

You aren’t being specific when to do it. It would only work well if you do it while Terry is doing his f f+C. Terry can decide to cancel into a fireball instead of that other move, so if you just mash crouch AB, you’re going to get hit by the fireball. Or, he can decide to cancel it into a jump, in which case mashing crouch AB will whiff and get you comboed there.

Well I’ve been searching for Garou + Guard Crush + String / Combo / Moves etc. and I’ve found little to nothing. Can someone post me a link, or some vids, I really want to know what characters have this option open to them, and how to preform their guard crush combos. Any help would be appreciated.

close C, f+A+C, close C, f+A+C, close C, f+A+C, crouch C…
then qcf+P
or ff+C return to start (here’s where crouchA+B works)
or f+A+C run up
or f+A+C HK qcf+P or ff+P

n00b version… (lame only use it as practice to build up to the better version and to time close C after ff+C)
close C, ff+C, close C, ff+C… repeat

If you’re getting hit by it (or blocking it) there’s not much you can do until it’s at the crouch C part because you can’t not block it once you’ve started. (unless they insert some delays, but that’s a whole other story)
Most characters can just use close D or C, then feint with f+A+C or d+A+C, then repeat, but they don’t have much use except pressure to keep them from mashing a throw or c.A+B attempt.
Terry and Kain really only have good GC strings. Further, you can add in a blocked TOP attack with most characters to get some big Guard Damage before you start.
