good stuff guys, and thanks for rec the matches yo!
I think this is a good idea. I’ll try to implement it. I think a two week time-frame is enough for the tourney to complete, so maybe make Wed/Friday nights deadlines?
Thanks so much for taking the time to record and upload these! I really enjoyed the music you selected - * especially* for Grand Finals - but would there be a way to have the music and keep the sound effects? I’m not fond of the music in Marvel, but the audio cues (Like Super Flashes and quotes like “Playtime… has ended”) realllllly do it for me. Not a big deal if this isn’t possible.
Theres a way for me to have character audio i just need to mess around with it a little bit.
Ill Also be working on a little Highlight reel from the fights that Happened think of it as a top ten plays of sorts. ill have it up in a few days
Nice!!
I cant wait for the next one. We need to start talking about banning the most common assists so we can get some variety in here.
Anyone up for open discussion on the issue?
after seeing beats play, i think the assist thing shouldnt be banned lol.
I don’t use common assists. yay! lol
but like what? like all the auto invincible AAA stuff like ken/cammy/capcom.? I do agree about variety though (instead of formula low tier)
toan: how do you mean 
you spam dummies from above, im gonna need capcom to punish that.
only when you knock me all the way up there, will I stay…but, you don’t need capcom to punish. 
that’s a silly thing to say. I don’t even put you at a disadvantage up there. the angle of morrigan’s projectile spam is better and she’s more mobile in the air and better on the ground. ya gotta try and think too. maybe we should ban capcom 
other players don’t need him to get me anyway (though they don’t even need to get me, it’s not like I’m getting any huge advantage up there. there are places to stay to avoid all coffins. and time in between to hit me or block.) there’s plenty of other characters and other AAAs that aren’t necessarily invincible but can hit me.
‘thoughts on what mixup was possibly saying’
[details=Spoiler]
I love how some are trying to counter the hell out of my comparatively weaker teams (you know, the ones with jin or silsam in them…without a generally safe dhc (or good DHCS in a lot of situations), without any strong/invincible AAA, without any balanced stengths, without godlike priority in most cases)
that whole formula of
better low tier character
+
gambit or ruby or cyc (tho he’s banned now)(also one of the better low tier characters)
+
invincibleAAA
is boring, at least against other low tier. and I’ve seen the formula enough, just cycled around with AAAs trying to ‘counter’ my already not as strong teams. so much for variety.
I’m not saying anakaris is the weakest. and he definitely has some strong stuff in some situations. but it’s clear that him and especially sonson is not as strong as these formula teams (or definitely mixup’s gaaadlike team)[/details]
oh, and mixup, how did your tentacles beat me out of my blodia when I was shooting your ass! LOL! that didn’t make NO sense.
the only reason i think the godly assists (capcom AA, psy AA, cammy AA) shouldnt be ban is bc of power house teams, or spamming teams. ppl usually play a certain way and they can be called spam but not know it. its just the way the team was meant to be played. and i honestly think the only way to punish that is not banning the assists for those characters.
ana plays a really good zone game plus the invincible sonson AA is crazy good. he also has really good ground game as well. im just saying a spamming ana could be just as annoying as cyke/cap spam
my morrigan has good mixup game and good angle dash but thing is i gotta get in and get the initial hit. most ppl can block it (after years of them playing magnetos). most of my good hits come from accidental whiffs that they do and i just punish off of that. its really hard for me to get a hit nowadays.
I definitely know it’s not spam (you probably didn’t notice that I only spammed when you ‘spammed’ because I had not many other options…also, that’s the only time when spamming actually is safe because you were busy spamming at the same time)
and we’ve seen, at least from mixup and other players who don’t use those godlike AAAs that’s it’s not the only way to get anakaris at least.
it’s just people’s own weaknesses or inexperience. maybe just gotta be a little more VDO-like.
I will admit, that the only time I spam (and the only time when it can really be called spam because it actually is hard to stop…for some characters) is when I get hit by a move that knocks me up high. though maybe it’s sort of fair since it probably did a lot of damage to anak anyway 
you do know sonson is not in anyway invincible right? she should be though.
he has some nice air zoning in some situations, but I’ve seen easily that others can out prioritize him in the air. on the ground he pretty much gets torn up unless I can starts some guard stun on you and try to do his limited mixup and hopefully do an ok damage combo (or less likely, but a better damage combo). his ground game and ground priority is nothing compared to the other characters like guile, morrigan, omega, etc.etc. and in no way can his spam be just as annoying as capcom. regardless, none of it is actually super powerful anyway. and my teams already have all the weaknesses (or rather, lack of strengths) I mentioned in my previous post
you sort of answered your own problem, morrigan will still eventually get the hit. it’s hard for anakaris with sonson to stop her when I’m on the ground (especially when capcom AAA is being called). when I’m in the air, there’s no damaging thing anak can do. he just uses that as bait and hopefully tries to trick you on the ground.
either way, I wasn’t really agreeing for banning of assists. I think it would actually make it interesting low tier and not formula low tier or pick godlike AAA low tier, but meh. but it seems like capcom AAA is the goto assist to call on. yaaaay…
spam is spam. its part of the game. i think if they want to spam its fine. you cant stop it, you can tell someone hey no spamming. thats just stupid. i can see how cyke was banned, bc hes very high in the chain in tier. but banning characters like capcom or psy and their assist is just silly.
i think its fine the way it is. as much as we want a full and real low tier, it wont happen bc ppl play a certain way and with shitty low tier characters, theres no way to really punish them.
agreed. I can think it’s uninspired, boring, formula low tier, but hey what can you do. you’ll always have the VDO type low tier players, the low tier players that play with every character, and then the ones who use the best low tiers/low tier combinations (with unpunishable DHCs/godlike AAAs).
just stating some of what I saw with the similariy in teams I saw + cycling of the best AAAs (though capcom seems to be the common best one to pick)
I just play mummy/monkey cause they aren’t too bad, and can be pretty fun and funny. but they’re definitely weaker than these other teams :[. I’m not about to follow any trends in the top-low tiers or commit to the good AAAs…yet lol…or am I?
Most of you guys are really good at this game and you look at it from a higher level of play. So i know for a fact ill need Capcom to contend with you guys, but it wouldnt help me anyway.
I think we should make a list of the characters people want banned and take a vote on who should get the boot.
List of Charcters assist people may want banned
Capcom
Psylock
Cammy
I need people to fill in the rest
why psylock or cammy? maybe if we’re trying to get rid of common/unoriginal assists will it make sense to ban the invincible AAAs…but otherwise, the only AAA close to being really powerful is capcom. even then, there should be more play time to come to more of an agreement perhaps.
I’m not a part of the group but interested in playing with you guys.
In the meantime, anyone up for a scrim just to bs? 
i dont think thats fair, most ppl will vote for which character they do not like. im telling you right now. its fine the way it is.
fyi, if they decide to ban capcom AA or psy AA, im not playing in this league. its silly to start mass banning characters bc they cant find a way to win and frustrate them.
capcoms AA is only good, but capcom himself will get dicked left and right just like any other character. banning cyke was correct bc hes got alot of options he could use.
I agree banning psy is dumb. but capcom might make a bit of sense, not just for his power, but because he’s clearly strong and I’ve seen him a lot now because of this so he’s common aside from the people who don’t want to resort to him
on the other side of the coin, one can say that maybe you can’t find a way to win with other low tier combos without these assists you love so much and that it frustrates you? it makes a bit of sense seeing as how your official low tier team before this had cyclops (lol) in it and now you just went to the next best thing, capcom. maybe this is true, maybe it’s not…but…
…just trying to point out the other view that others have definitely thought about/seen too.
again, I’m not going either way (sort of playing devil’s advocate but with a slight lean 
), but perhaps this is what people will come to realize?
Capcom has no place in low tier and one could argue psy does not either. I’m not sure what’s so surprising about that. Both of them are often used in tournaments so it shows there must be something about them that has no place in a “low tier” league.
that’s not entirely correct. psy is only really useful with magneto/storm. otherwise characters tend to not have the mobility or combos off a hit to make her beastly
(sort of like most low tiers don’t have the mobility to use tron as well)
capcom is a powerful defensive assist all around, and nice on point against other low tiers. but it is still up in the air if he really has no place imo. but you can easily see how low tier can devolve into everyone just having capcom AAA on their team if they want a good chance of winning or just easy damaging defensive options (yawn)
