Moving out to ABQ in the coming weeks from San Antonio.
I play CvS2 primarily. I read through the thread a little, sounds like there is comp for it. If anyone wants to play, I should be able to around the beginning of september. I have my own stick, game, portable TV, the works.
I’ve been around the block for CvS2, I’ve played Buk, Nuki, Bas, Otaku, Ricky, Combofiend, any and everyone in Texas. Im not on par with any of those listed but I can still give them a hard time.
I like playing other fighters, I just don’t put the same effort into them for lack of competition in SA really. I would love to play Marvel if thats the scene in ABQ.
I’ll basically play what everyone else is playing.
This is usually a dead end question, but are there any good arcades in ABQ? I prefer them to console and SA’s arcades died a long time ago.
i have a feeling you and i will be good friends
i really NEED a serious competitor, i can best most of the comp here. I’m not terribly experienced, but i’ve played at FFA a whole bunch, and i’ve traveled to Co for a toruney. I’m also going to evo, so hit me up once you get out here man
my name is zach and my number is 505 231 1187
edit: our arcade isn’t very good, but we have cvs 2, mvc2, t5:dr, and kofxi. which is more than i can say for anywhere else in the state
i figured he was still playing you at least. anyways enough with the money matches seriously why dont yall just play each other and learn from one another as compared to taking a title that doesnt hold any claims when outsiders come to town? hell i bet allan would learn more if yall actually took the time to teach instead of rape.
Zal: Good deal, it’s gonna take me a while to get situated here in ABQ, I’ll keep in touch on the boards until I can get some time to break away and play. My name is Skip. Wish I could go to FFA sometime. The best I had access to is random trips to H-Town for Stargate when it was around and Planet Zero now, but the place never gets too intense for CvS2 outside of tourney days. Mainly T6 and 3S.
Where are the arcades with CvS2? If its anywhere in the area I’ll probably pop in occasionally to check it out. Im moving into the northeast side close to the Tanoan country club.
If we can get a CvS2 scene going that would be great. SA had 4 of us including myself who were really competitive and that was enough to keep it interesting.
And I mainly play C - Blanka,Chun,Sagat(2)
We’re RC whores in SA, cept for Legendary Goku, that scrub is P-Groove for life.
Awesome can’t wait to see you come down here. I’ve been playing CVS 2 and Tekken 5 DR a whole lot more than I have been playing MVC2. Nobody plays in the arcade when I go. Yes, there is derrek, But I rarely see the Guy. And Allen is actually getting pretty good. Either that or i’m getting really rusty.
I personally Think I suck at marvel, compared to ROW JOE. Last time we had X-topia at the convention center. I literally got stomped. I can’t understand what the hell he is doing! it just boggles my mind!
Serious competitors? I am willing to throw down with you. To make things a bit more interesting why don’t we name a price because I find it a bit disrespectful when you say that there’s no competition in New Mexico because there is.
I’ll take you down. I’ll put 20 dollars on the line. You only need to beat me once and I need to beat you 3 times.
I’ll let everyone know when I can play, the more the merrier.
Intox: Its just not competition unless there is something on the line. I’ll put down 20 on a race to 5 sometime. CvS2 mind you. If there is serious comp in ABQ I want to find it.
Zal: If you do that MM I want to be there too. Let me know when you guys are gonna do this, get some real CvS2 going.
Ix3: I play a little DR, its actually got a strong following in SA, our DR top players are f’n good. Im not very good but Im at least compitent. (sp?)
I like Marvel and I can at least follow it but if anyone wants to help me get better for the sake of better comp and not just stomp someone unfamiliar with it then let me know. Anything I learned I learned from MagX, he used to play here in SA.
So Zal, Ix3 and Intox all play CvS2? Sweet deal. Im looking foward to ABQ.
woah man, i’m not tryin to talk shit or anything, but when i tried to arange a match with you, you were too busy i think, or i don’t know, i just know i’ve never really had any CVS2 buddies. If you want to come to my place some time, or even meet up at tilt i’d love to play you, who knows we may have even played against each other. i would love to play you for money, but i’ve got bills to pay at present not to mention my trip to EVO, but once i get back i’d love to throw down for some money.
we should arrange a time to meet once a week at one of our places, and then once at tilt. i think we could really get the scene going if we work together. i didn’t think you were interested in cvs2. everytime i’ve polled this thread for CVS2 comp no one has ever really responded.
as for the rest of you, lets get this shit going! we could even try to make trips up to CO for tournies up there and throw some of our own and invite the CO crew.
we ain’t in norcal here, but i’m sure we could breed some talent.
I’ll try and start my own fund to drive to ABQ more often lol. You guys are always chill. We HAVE to hit up the town next time I visit, pleeeeease!
I think if you guys stepped it up, we’d have about 11 players who are decent in MvC2. You’ve got LC (myself, Adan, Marco, JR, and soon O2K), Utsu, and ABQ (Pi, Jeff, Allen, Derrick, and Brett?). I know every single one of us has potential, so hit up training mode if that’s all you’ve got to work with. Play a variety of teams. Learn to play counter teams. One or two teams in this game is probably not gonna cut it for you. Also, please block. Random scrubs on YouTube who try and rushdown but cannot block for squat = ugly. You guys are better than that.
It’s a shame gas is so costly now. =(
Don’t be so hard on yourself, Pi. I remember you took the very first match we played that night. =P
I consider myself semi-local for the New Mexico scene. I know most of you guys, and so long as I have family in the state, I’m sure I’ll be showing up often enough. I’ve played a lot of Marvel in my day, but only in ABQ have I played long enough to have my fingers start bleeding.
stop trying to money match everyone you startin to sound familiar.
pm me i got a job for you
i always thought pi had the most potential but he holds back from what i remember. need to find away to boost his strategic thought process :lol: make it faster and hell kill. anyways dont forget to tell them dont block too much.
hey intoxicated,
it was you who called me right?
anyways, sorry i couldn’t make it today
would monday work for you? either at tilt or my house, i live on simms off of carlisle south of central
I am now in New Mexico, I’m still getting situated so I can’t be playing a lot right now. My time is limited now but I should be able to free up more in the coming weeks.
Where are the good arcades at? Are there any? It would be a lot easier for me to meet people at an arcade. Do the sticks work and such? Im not picky about what kind, just so long as they function.
Really want to play. CvS2 preferablly but at this point anything sounds great. Pretty much spent the last month getting ready to move, no games.
Tilt is the only with one CVS2 in it. But they also Have KOF XI, MVC2, SC2, T5DR, DOA2, MVC1, and something else.
there are other arcades. But they don’t have all the game That I want to play. You’ll find that most of the arcades here have nothing but redemption/ticket games.
And the sticks work fine at tilt. They’re also under new management btw as of 2 weeks ago.
Planning on it, I want to get a CvS2 scene going here. If anyones interested (I know Zal is) then we need a place and time to meet at least once a week to play.
Any decent gaming places to play here? Or maybe someone can host at their place. I would, but I have a 5 year old and it would be quite a hassle. Any takers here?
