I know I’m leaving things out probably, but they will be posted when they are brought up.

They should make a divekick sister game called downback. Whoever can hold downback for longer wins. Oh wait, they already made it, and we’re already talking about it!

Just gonna leave this here.

Had a blast at WNB last night. Don’t feel so bad getting bodied by Havoc now that I see he won the thing. :stuck_out_tongue:

MX Madskizophrenik, Xaiah, thanks for running this thing. On http://www.tierlessheroes.com/wnb-episode-33-results/ a couple of things. All the links at the bottom are busted (they aren’t absolute links, they have the current page appended in front of them) and my handle is Halophilic instead of Halophitic.

Thanks again! Can’t wait to see my face on the video when I got beasted. :smiley:

sigh I know you want to think every post I make on SRK is about you, but sadly isn’t. Whatever you have against Ed is with him. The post of mine you commented on thinking it was about you was a joke to Ed, not you, because I like to joke with Ed. I don’t have anything against Ed and the video was like “WTF” to me, but entertaining. smhalls :yawn:

The whole “promotes discipline” doesn’t even make sense. No matter what fighting game you’re playing, you get hit, its your fault, now find a way to not let that happen again. You failed to point on one legitimate reason to play it.

Plus I’ve mentioned before in the past that SF4 is a good 101 level fighting game. Its simple, pretty basic, easy to pick up. You can learn footsies pretty well in it. But that’s it. You eventually work your way up to the 200 and 300 level courses.

And I don’t play Marvel, so nice try there. I’ve never entered a Marvel tournament ever and I play the same three characters for kicks, because the game is just fun to play for me to mess around in. And its soooooo entertaining to watch others who do play Marvel competitive. Maybe one day I’ll try to play it serious and have a team in mine, but until then it will be lighting legs into super every time. :smiley:

Glad to see the thread has come back to life.

I had mentioned having a gathering on Saturday; so I am now officially stating, gathering at my place in North Raleigh Saturday night. I want to get as many KOF people out there as humanly possible so we can get a FN’NM going. (either round robin or 3/5 also possible buy in to be determined as well)

Also would like to have other games (P4/Mahvel/SF/ Tekken/Shaq Fu), so if anyone is interested PM for address (Its in north Raleigh near Falls and Durant intersection).

Spread the word.

This is Tal by the way.

You said ( I WILL QUOTE TO MAKE THIS AS EASY AS POSSIBLE)

You addressed Ed, and mentioned the quote to which he was replying, which was something I had written. Seriously dude, if you WEREN’T referencing my post, then we have some real communication issues.

SF4 is not a proactive game like KoF, GG, or Marvel.

You haven’t even given me any legit arguments yet. Wonky hitboxes? Go play 3S, Alpha 2, SF2, and look how retarded the hitboxes are in those games. You have to play a certain way? Elaborate because as far as I know there are a variety of characters with different styles to use.

You just don’t like SF4 because it seems like the cool thing to do. So stick to your KoF and Tekken and stop spiting on games you have no clue about. Asking for help in the Newbie Saikyo Dojo doesn’t count man.

Azn_Boy: Sweet baby Zeus, I do not like SF4! NOTHING will change that more than likely. We can continue this debate Saturday. :smiley:

West: Get over it! Last time I checked I replied to Ed’s post, not yours. Sorry you’re not in on the joke, but its not about you! But you have made it even more entertaining than necessary. :rofl:

EDIT: Almost forgot!

[media=youtube]p1JJkMD1hE4[/media]

SF4 is so good people write out arguments about why it’s bad 4 years after release when hardly anyone is playing it. I can only hope after I quit fighting games people talk half as much shit about me.

Thank you for the input bro, things are fixed now…glad you had fun man, the video is being uploaded!!! We hope to see you next week!!!

sofa king is on that god tier troll status

Tal you can post this on the TH group man XD
www.facebook.com/groups/tierlessheroes

this thread is…

SoFa_King GOOOOOOD

was that too soon?

anyways, I enjoy the witty debate and banter going on in here but guys do me a favor and PLEASE stop associating MY GAME (Tekken) with anyone who hasnt proved themselves in it yet.

troll status OFF [ON]

Nice thread!

The moment Sofa understands a fraction of what any fighting game is about is the moment his opinion matters.

Now, back to ignoring this shitty, shitty thread.

I think I might go somewhere and play games tomorrow. :slight_smile:
