Kansas City Drinking: We Have a Serious Fighting Game Problem

I hate fighting games.

But I still may show up tonight at the HoF. I have some KoF learningz to do.

Was a great hookup, clark is so good/fun, might have to make a permanent spot for him. gg’s to yon in our ft5, and shout out to samson, and deron for us getting a crack session in and me witnessing some of the best kof we’ve played to date.

For Deron.

yooo samson, how was da concert last night? was there any difference compared to friday night (other than some different tracks)?

Yeah some different tracks, it had my favorite from FFIX ‘You’re not alone’ and FFVI the opera song, it was worth the 2 nights for me!

I had a good time playing with you guys the short time I was in town, sucks I had to get to go pick my drunk friends up, but I had to good guy greg it

Great games Cities, hopefully you can stick around a little longer next time.

Also, belated GGs to Chainslaw aka out-of-town John. Great Viper.

I’m heading on to Nashville, then home to Louisiana, we had a pretty good day in KC though for the campaign that next day.

hope you come back soon, so we can play some more kof…lol

hey guys, meant to post this earlier but only now have access to a computer -

GG’s to everyone I met last Thursday! I should’ve left earlier but I was havin too much fun lol. Especially had fun getting bodied in kof, made me want to play that game more haha. thanks again to jspot for letting me swing by, really nice setup there

yo guys, in case you didnt know
Hookup is on tonight - park in the street, enter via back basement door, no shoes, bring sticks, games, setups, pride, byob

I’m not on facebook so bear with me. Is the hookup at axioms on tonight?

Yup starts at 9. Come to the facebook, man. It’s where most of the news and all that kind of stuff gets posted now.

John, thanks for Tekken tutorial. That really helped me understand the basic strategy of the game. It’s going to take me some time to learn the techniques, but your enthusiasm for the game confirmed my belief that Tekken is very cool and worth it.

I didn’t catch the name of the former She-Hulk/Tron player. I like your style. Next time let’s get some games in Marvel (or Tekken if you want a pseudo training dummy).

GGs last night gentlemen. Sorry about the passing out, was up since 7 yesterday morning and my leg was cramping up. Gotta walk that out.

Dave- Cammy loves you.

Nick- Cammy loves me.

Philly- Sucks you didn’t get any SFxT in, maybe if Jessurugi shows up to a Friday night hookup it’ll get played, since he’s the only other one who likes it.

Yay…got some tekken in. That should happen more often.
Drew- You know who loves me more than Cammy? My 360 pad…what a pile of crap lol

Asking for a ride to Maxout, will chip in gas.

EDIT: I think I got one. As plans solidify, I will still keep an eye out.

Hello everyone, its me FullBleed! The guy you either dislike, strongly dislike, or generally don’t have very high regard for!

This coming Friday I’ll be able to start attending hookups regularly again, which is good because Friday is really the only day I can do hookups during the school year. I’ve started writing down a sort of “matchup guide” for Blanka, or more specifically, a general gameplan of how I should approach each matchup. This includes which zone (in regards to footsies) I should be in, what I should be doing against each character when I get a knockdown, and basic strategy in regards to how to fight each character. Watching my match against AxioM at Maxout really told me I have no gameplan, I just kept walking into his c.MK range and was not keeping proper spacing. This should me get a better idea of what I should be doing in each matchup. I think I’m decent at this game but really need to improve my knowledge of matchups and footsies if I ever want to start beating high level players.

So I’ll probably be trying to get in some sets with players that main each character, and developing what I should be doing in that matchup. I’ll probably be asking a lot of questions and asking you to look at what I wrote down, to see if I indeed have the right away to approach the matchup or am just doing shit that will get me murdered.

If you think you have a decent secondary, I’d like to play against them too, but only if someone else in KC does not main that character. There are some characters that nobody plays here, but if you at least have a general idea of how to play them, I could at least get some notes on that matchup. When I finish doing this with Blanka, I’ll probably do the same with Guile.

So that’s it, feedback would be appreciated Friday. I’ll be bringing a setup and probably running it on AE for this specifically.

NO HOOKUP @ MY PLACE THIS THURSDAY

MAXOUT THREAD IS UP.
