North Carolina Players Thread LV

I can’t drive and I want someone local to practice consistently with and form tight, masculine bonds of manly friendship.

Someone tell the guys who run this Fayetteville venue to call me and I can hook them up with some crazy deal.

With practice, Jill is going to be able to catch someone on the ground and 100% them with no bar. Feral crouch xx A xx feral crouch xx A x N is ridiculous. I’ve only managed 5 so far, but my execution is ass. Jill is definitely going to be crazy. I think Shuma and Mystic Ray is going to eat some zoning play if his beam durability can hold up to some others.

Corner-trap, I updated the post. But you gotta get some people in there to scope out those TVs. If he cannot get them to be lagless, the venue won’t last in the community. Personally, I’ll play on a lagless TV at a venue I don’t care for, but won’t play on a laggy LCD at a venue I love. Also, what would the discount be exactly? I know he said discounted for groups, but how much of a discount for how many people? Cause if the TVs lag AND the venue fee ends up being >$5, it’s not going to last more than one tournament.

We need a second Lucky’s but I dunno where we’ll find one. Hell, what happened to our FIRST Lucky’s? Haven’t heard any news on any upcoming tourneys.

Edit:
Austin, I got your joke immediately.

They removed the infinite from what I understand. 5-6 is the most anyone has been able to get, myself included.

That said, Jill will definitely be good provided you support her with proper assists. Once she’s in her mixup game is among the strongest in the cast, and her gun super covers quite a bit of space and DHCs well.

Shuma is good. Air mystic smash has advantage on guard, his combos are long and painful, and his normals are huge.

I knew that had to be it. It just felt like after those few reps, the game says no.

It’s cool to see we’re getting things organized with gatherings. I would try running a tournament myself if I could find a good venue in Raleigh. The hotel gathering showed me there’d be interest, and those folks were mostly all local (and people I didn’t know at that).

And speaking of gatherings, I’ll still host periodically on Tues/Thur/Fri/Sat, and let everyone know when they’re going on/invited. I have to keep them small since my place isn’t so big and I only have 2 setups, so it not being noted in the regular gathering schedule works out fine. Along those same lines, thanks for that TV info Roski, I think I’m going with one of those X30s. They’re about 400 on Amazon.

Thinking I’ll stick with Team Lightning. yeah.

My only problem with DLC is that they intentionally plan to put it in games. I like the idea of getting stuff developed after release but a lot of times it’s just in the business model to hold off till after the game comes out to put stuff as DLC they could have easily had in the game. I actually complained a lot at Epic about how they were doing DLC.

IMO if it’s like… way after the games release and not on disk / planned stuff, I’m cool with it. Just like Shuma / Jill who were already mostly on the disk and could have definitely been finished and in there with it, it just kinda sucks.

I guess what I’m saying is, if you have something right there, why plan it as DLC? That defeats the purpose of DLC :tdown:

His combos don’t really do that much do they? like 400-500k with super at the end. Also air mystic smash loses to like… everything. I do like his normals though. Just… don’t like his movement. Fun character though.

I’ve been asking about the luckys thing too, seems like ever since Roski moved it’s pretty sporadic and never hear about it anymore.

Oh also, if R U A Gamer has PS3’s, unless you guys wanna do a sexbox tourney, I’ll go up there and see about arranging something.

Shuma BnBs do over 650k for 1 bar, and you can always tack on CD instead to take it up to around 850-900. I’m talking about the rejump loops involving j.8H, specifically.

Hmm they must have come up with something new since I learned him, I was doing the rejump stuff and getting less damage. It’s like whatever into 2H [j.M j.H j.8H] xN right?

So yeah, gathering this weekend at state. Tryin to decide when though, Fri or Sat?

Yeah I knew the fact that the venue ran HDTV’s would be a problem for most of the community since it’s the same problem people have with Gamefrog (as I’ve been told). But most of the Fayetteville scene seems to be ok with it, I just simply want a venue to help my city’s scene grow. I don’t expect a lot of out of towners but having a consistent venue is nice even if the setups aren’t ideal. If we find a better venue then we’ll move our scene over there, until then this is the best we got.

Like always I’ll try to make it there. Would prefer Saturday if possible.

No problem man. They’re around the same price in HHGregg; I would get from them since we haven’t really seen any testing and you can return it in 14 days (most any reason) if it lags like ass. Panasonic may also be doing a slightly larger LCD with the same panel.

Thanks for the headsup on the Jill infinite. Saved me some time lol.

If these new TVs are good, and the venue is interested, please give them my name and phone number. =)

One more thing Jimmy, can you add how to contact these people on SRK. I think I’ve added them correctly still don’t know if it’s Darklight or Shiki or HKN at Charlotte that sets up the stuff at UNCCH.

I’m assuming people are just gonna post here or PM them. While some of those people have posted their phone numbers before, it’s in a single post at one point in time that if you wanted to go back and find you’d have to dig it up and do a lot of searching… something no one is gonna do after that topic is locked and gone. They don’t post all over the place with their phone number and address in their signature.

That said, anyone who wants me to put up an address or a phone number or anything in the first post in relation to their gatherings, let me know and I’ll do it. But until then I’m gonna leave it as is and people can get that stuff in PMs.

I’ll give you their contact information after I play there over the weekend.

Julian/Darklight runs it as far as I know.

It’s not the best idea to post everyone’s address and phone number, would be better to just handle it through PM’s.

That’s what he said:

Check it out see if it’s a good venue, NC definitely needs more in the RDU area as we saw at the hotel gathering that was a no go so if we can work something out with them and they are good then it’s win/win because they get a decent amount of money from our scene and we get a place to all play/possible hold tournaments. Though we can’t have any bullshit here like if it’s a good venue we should use it and not let it go away.

Brandino and I were just discussing this and personally Sat is a little better for both of us. I mean it’s whatever works best for everyone in general but the good part about saturdays is those of us with work/school don’t have to worry too much about leaving early for the people traveling a few hours away.

Yeah for me in the first post, you can add my contact as 919 532 9692. I don’t usually answer if I don’t know the number but texting works fine.

Also, female deer blood sacrifice works pretty well too. I just got done killing about 40.
