NC Thread LVI - Sessions / Tournaments in the First Post

Go to jisho.org and look them up by the radical.

oni confirmed sleeper tier

I may have to take that up with ya man lol That couch was definitely a nice spot especially when there was MvC2 and A3 getting played :slight_smile:

Looks like I kinda got a rival session going on over here on Wednesdays. Keep getting people wanting to play over here, go figure. Otherwise I’d try to make it out there somehow or get you over here lol

PS you gotta let me know how Thor is, debating on seeing that this weekend or catching Fast Five.

Those three are really solid it seems. Almost all the tier lists since the game was out in Japan have had those three up there. I wonder what makes Cammy at A+? The last AE tournament stream I saw they were basically like lolololcammysux now. Also wonder what it’s like matching the A tiers against the S tiers seriously so I guess a matchup chart might be nice.

Thanks for that, Sam. Unfortunately, it seems like it’s one of those gaming-only terms that isn’t in the dictionary. For the first two kanji it came up as “tokubetsu” or special, but the third kanji apparently doesn’t form a compound with those two in front.

Kanji details for ? - Denshi Jisho

That’s the third kanji. I would guess it’s “special frame” or something? Anyway, there’s a section of the tier article detailing what that ranking is about, I’ll have to sit down and decipher it later.

BTW guys, there’s no matchup chart to go with this. Matchup charts are actually pretty rare these days. Kindebu is cited as the person who came up with this ranking. Also, Oni not ranked because he hasn’t been out long enough in Japan arcades yet.

Regular TKCS is no longer possible unless you burn a bar. Which means less opportunities to guess with a DP because you won’t always get the chance to FADC it. More recovery frames were added to the regular Cannon Spike so it’s more punishable. Meterless Cammy no longer scary to block against :smiley:

But other than that, she got her normals buffed and some minor damage buffs here and there.

I actually want you on the team. I don’t think we should just say “you and you are on the team”… that’s not really fair to anyone. If we actually have more than 5 players going, I say we play for it.

Triangle Candidates:
Jon
Jos
Blake
Garrett
Erik
Brent
OJ
Demo

I’d really like to have the best team going in so even if that means I have to sit out if I lose, so be it haha.

edit: So what’s this about Jos on team Fayetteville? Defecting I see? =P

You can take me off as a candidate. Gonna run with Fay. Jose is going to be running with Fayetteville. Not Jos. lol. Jose is BlasianJH. He was going to school in Greenville but he’s moving back to Fayetteville since he’s done.

If you mean me, I have no plans on playing/trying to play for fayetteveille.

I think OJ has made it pretty clear he wants to be on team Fayetteville. So that means we have 7 people playing for a spot on the team. We should be able to get a session going next week to determine the team, like you said all that matters is that team triangle does the best it possibly can.

If you want to host some games in GSO I’d love to join in. Most of these places are at least an hour and a half away.

Has the May 21st EZ tournament been added to the SRK calendar yet?

Oh whoops, damn these similar names lol.

So how are we going to play for it? Round robin style maybe?

Would everyone be able to make it out for a round robin if we do it that way?

Oh lord round robin. Shit gonna take all night long.

Just do it pokemon style. It’s more exciting that way.

Round Robin works … how?

Pokemon Style ?

lol

Round Robin is when everyone from both teams gets to play every other person on the opposing team, so there are 25 total rounds. First to 13 wins.

Pokemon style is like how most team matches work. It’s like Tekken’s team battle mode.

Round robin sounds like a good time, pokemon sounds to quick.

My vote is for round robin.

The sets are pokemon style, but the tournament is round robin. So every team will play every team, but not every player will play every player. If the individual sets were round robin it would take way too long. I’m only making the regional 5v5 round robin because there will only be like 5 teams.

@Josiah

You can just google stuff if you don’t know how some tournament formats work. Also I already posted the tournament on the calender but it has to be approved by a moderator first for everyone else to see it.

CS2 Carl is just a smudge below CT Carl retarded aka “The worst kind of A Tier.” Plus with Makoto and Noel being S-tier you can already guess my opinion on whether this game is nonsense.

Can’t wait to play it. :bgrin:

Thats whats up man. I stay right near UNCG too
