New Mexico: ABQ Ranbats, Las Cruces TNF, and Community Thread (NM-ISM,DKO,LC:TNF)


Go like it people. Also, anyone getting games tonight?

Also we made an NM-ISM twitter account, so follow it for pics, brackets, announcements and more: https://twitter.com/nmismfgc

The website and forum will be coming soon…get ready for some awesome stuff! Anyone that comes on Friday will get an early scoop. We’ll also be taking ideas for what people want to see in our community going forward.

Wait, is the new site on facebook?

No the new site will be nmism.com when we get it finished (which should be very soon). Facebook and twitter will just be addition means of communication for those that don’t hit up the site and outreach for those who aren’t yet acquainted with the scene.

Ian don’t read this or you’ll spend money you don’t have,

In true NM fashion here’s my post-evo UMVC3 gayness tier list.

jokes aside, that actually looks like a decent tier list

Nick you understand thats so fucking dumb Girly for real( Hulk, Haggar, Aurthor) you should be slapped for that post. And on that note Martin wanna make another quick 50 bones.

Arthur the brave knight ventures into the depths of Hell to save his beloved wife, Princess Guenivere. Guenivere is captured by Satans minions, and it’s up to Arthur to save her and fuck her brains out.

Switch Doom with Viper, put X-23(Top 5) up there with him, and it will look a lot better.

That tier list is so fucked I don’t even know where to begin. If I could mash Gamma Crush, the next time we play, I would mash that shit so hard your molecular structure would come undone.

Asshole.

“Planning on being competitive in DOA5 online? You’re going to need a better joystick than the base 360 controller to play with the big dogs.
This is not one of the kiddy sticks with Chun-Li stickers built in, it’s a real tournament arcade stick.”

Viper has so much BS, I love Doom but I feel he has too many bad matchups to be super top tier. He’s as high as his is really for his team synergy. His point game is solid, but if that’s all he had he would be a bit lower. Viper doesn’t care about anything though, her main drawback is a high skill cap that people are starting to figure out. She has great tools for just shutting down a lot of other characters BS and her damage output it amazing.

Honestly everyone from Felicia to Ryu are really close for me, it’s cluster of characters that are either unexplored (Dr. Strange) or very limited (Hulk) but are all totally viable without making your team garbage. If I could I’d probably put most them on the same, or nearly the same level.

Oh… And someone better report me for talking about games.

Switch Cap and Chris and you’ve got a list I can get behind.

it’s weird talking about games in this thread, but its better than the usual drama/stupidity that this thread brings.

also i think chris > deadpool and haggar should be a bit higher, but for the most part the tier list looks good.

Chris and Deadpool are both pretty solid, I like Deadpool’s mobility though, and the overhead. Chris does nuke the hell out of assists though, and chip like a mother…

Doom is good on point, and has two of the best assists in the game. Missals vary well maybe the best all around assist in the game. viper’s assists don’t even come close, so you have to taker her for face value. Is she as good as zero on point? lighting loops, 50/50 mix ups on incoming in to death without assists, then why is she on the some level as zero? Viper my have the edge on doom 1 on 1, but if you take into account assists COME ON MAN.

MvC3 is old news, let’s discuss the SFxTekken tier list, I’ll start!

I think she is actually close to Zero, or at least is closing the gap. I think her having and invincible special (with meter granted) that leads to TOD combos is a great asset in this game. Not only does she have good mixup options on incoming characters, but she has some that are unavoidable unless you have a double jump. She’s an amazing character, and has tools that stop the BS that this game offers. Looking at Evo results, you don’t have Vipers hitting top 8 yet (the best players aren’t using her yet though) but she does show up on some of the top 16 teams. Maybe it’s just because I spent a pretty decent amount of time at Evo getting bodied by Viper players but I feel comfortable saying she’s a better than Doom.

As for Doom, it’s true has has the best set off assists in the game and he makes characters that are better than him a huge threat. He loses to a lot of characters for free though (Dorm, Hawkeye, Dante, Vergil, Zero, Morrigan) even if he’s backed with one of his best assists (Strider, Sentinel, Ammy). His levels of pure BS just aren’t there for top tier status. If he had less bad matches against top tiers, I’d bump him. Doom is a team player, but to be S-tier you need to be the star.
