wow. that’s really nice of PWA to do this. spend 5 bucks to get in and you get 5 bucks to play arcade games in the down time between matches or tournies or once you have lost of something. Thanks for being so supportive.
We should really make sure this goes super smoothly, guys. I’m free Friday night after work till about ten for games and discussion about how we are gonna make this event the best possible.
ggs last night to peeps.
Yeah bra.
I’m going to have to say! Maybe we shouldn’t run danisen matches, just because if I’m running the stream and I want to play in the tournament running the dan matches takes another computer too and it needs constant attention to keep it going!
But I think there’s plenty of things for people to do in any down time they have from tournament play 
Let’s chat Friday Kraig over Arcana 3. Saki awaits…Wesker makes me rage too hard, gotta calm it down. At least the matches validated my team though. I’ll have some more Dorm stuff for Tuesday playing lame like that was painful for me. Gonna watch some Master CJ vids and get that movement on point.
Van nice to meet you and your friend last night (terrible with names). Didn’t get to play any of that rose, but I’d like to see how Guy fairs in AE against her. Speaking of which hopefully some of you guys are in the lab as we speak getting those new characters up to par. We need those Yun/Yang matchups and to a lesser extent Evil Ryu/Oni. Oni has a lot of potential with that crazy mobility.
Brian thanks for the suggestions last night, didn’t know some of the stuff you mentioned. It will be helpful.
Adam, where’s that email list homie?! It’s the last thing I have to put together by this weekend hopefully. Want to include the links to this page, the tournament page, and the facebook page. Need to get those not in the SRK loop included asap!
Whatever you need AT, we are lucky to have you even run a stream for us. greatly appreciated! i’ll update the tournament thread with the new offer graciously bestowed upon us by PWA in its steed.
Yeah. Im at work right now but hit me up later NB. Want some of that sweet morton salt.
AT my laptop is powerful enough to handle recording. I just need new equipment. If your interested let me know.
Thanks Van! We wouldn’t need to record the danisen league with video/stream but I mean we’d need another computer to record the data (google doc spreadsheets). The main issue is having someone be there to make sure it’s constantly running since it’s only 1 match and has a list/spreadsheets that are being constantly updated :x
everyone, if you haven’t heard yet, there was a scheduling mix up and the tournament is now postponed until the 25th, so only one week after.
more time to practice, spread the word.
is this true? cause if it is then East Coast Throwdown–an EVO tournament season major is that weekend. Most people, I’m guessing, will either be at that in NJ or watching it. text me with an update, plz.
It IS true and puts us in a precarious situation. Spoke to Adam last night and our tournament was not updated in their system so two parties were booked for that day. We are going to have to make some quick assessments and change the flyer once a new date is decided. We are a go for the 25th if we choose though.
In terms of East Coast Throwdown there is a reason why 10k plus people gather on streams: They don’t travel, especially around these parts. I am certain there are players living down the street or close to ECT that aren’t going or capable of getting the money together to do it. It will effect numbers, but I am not convinced enough to ruin what could still be a great turn out. If not then we have to look into mid July so let’s get some thoughts going on the matter and come to a decision. We still have people thinking it’s happening next week…
Idk. I think we should shoot for a diff day.
NB lets go ssfiv, tekken, mvc3 training. Like a boss!
Yo my bad last night man. I saw you on, but it was like 11:45 lol. I’ll be on and off until 11pm then on till like 2am on SF and Marvel. Gotta try out chun li on point, wolverine doesn’t look or feel good in my hands.
For my stream monsters who are avid “The Break Weekly” watchers. Whoop, swag, swag, Lmfao.
Yeah NB, I’m usually in bed by 11 pm (work in Tewksbury so gotta wake up early for the drive in). On the weekends though I’m usually up all night. Holler back
I’ll just get some in earlier before the Heat/Mavs game at 9. I’ll be ready around 8 so we can get an hour or so in, if not sooner.
Stuck in tewksbury cause of storm hopefully i make it home by 8 lol
EDIT: YAY! I didnt get hit by lightning (I saw Oni flying around up there and got pretty scared). Home now.
Got “Yunned” last night lol. Balrog changes hurt more than expected, but Guy changes are good.Couple of things I noticed from the various Yun’s out there was lack of ability to apply palm other than meter build, not many were familiar or didn’t use his target combos (i.e st. lp, st. lk st. mp or st. mp, st. fp, b+fp), command throw (really capcom?!) has increased range, speed and looks like less recovery from 3s days, not many attempts if at all to follow up after You Hou Ultra(which also has an amazing hit box, and gets FULL cinematic when used as an anti air). “Day One” of the DLC I know but this is common knowledge from more than ten years ago. Regardless he is a VERY powerful character, seems extremely scrub friendly (anyone looks like a superstar using him) and one request from the Yun players out there: PLEASE more divekick and dp loving it so far…kinda serious need the experience.
Amidst the salt, there were some things I took away for those not tempted by the devil’s fruit. Other than dp, I am not sure he has too many tools to escape rush down, he has a long throw range like Adon, palm recovery is still pretty bad (watch for fakes though to bait jump-ins), and his health isn’t that great (punish HARD!), cr. RH and st. RH have punishable recovery so look for them in block strings or pressure strings. Might all be common knowledge by now, but it’s confirmed to be true a bit from my short experience.
GG’s to all I played last night, it was fun. Damn Rich 13 hit E. Ryu combo (no super or Ultra, stylin on me man hahaha. Character looks pretty solid in your hands.
NB the 3s target combo (s. lk, s. lp, s. mp) does not do near as much damage as the bnb me and my friend have been experimenting with (c. lk, c. lp, s. lp, s. mp). the 3s target combo is however easier to land. The second target combo you mentioned gives great knockdown but unfortunately also does less damage than doing our bnb into DP and puts you at almost the same spacing (bad spacing too close/dangerous). The ultra 1 can be combo’d off of genei-jin but the damage scaling is still really disgusting (prefer to use ultra 1 as either anti-air or punish); not to mention when you ultra in genei-jin the time of the super is still decreasing during the ultra cutscene/pause. Of course I’ve also been playing like ass the past few weeks (most likely from lack of sleep).
Will hopefully hit the lab again this weekend, hit me up for some training mode. And get a god damn mic NB, lol.
Yun’s amazing… GG
yeah gg’s…ae is poop ass. fuck the twins… e ryu is fun to use, but i dont think he’s very viable right now. sagat is only slightly buffed–better because other characters were changed. i’m also thinking about trying makoto now that she’s worth using
yeah rich, I thought the same thing with makoto… I might try and learn akuma now that he has those ridiculous ex hadoukens lol
