Wow… that’s a real card. What the fuck Will lol
Sooooooo,
To answer some questions; our Consoles for the tournament are Xbox360s. Umm Will, that 4v4 or 5v5 or whatever would be PERFECT i would definetly be down for that. other things, I’m sure the others (im not the only one runnin the tournament) wouldnt mind if yall bring other games for casuals, especially KOF since i’ve been hearin so much about it. To be honest I WANT to run both AE and Marvel, i really really do, it many not happen This wednesday though, but we’ve been discussing it because it divides the players who play marvel but not AE and VisaVersa and If we adust a couple things there shouldnt be a reason why we can’t run both. May i Remind we only have 4 setups as well, in the process of gettin more, at least 6 definite setups we can run games on every wednesday. It is now a gaming hub or station however, so Im not sure how the owner feels about CRTs, if CRTs are allowed (@_@ i have no idea if they are or aren’t) then i’d bring like 3 setups with me but i dont know ill have to ask about that as well, i probably forgot to mention something if there is anything else plz post up.

Lol, Jon – we play the exact same team. I’ve been playing zero/dante/magneto for months, but recently discovered the power of having a good dhc (RIP dante dhc) using doom or dormammu. Doom just feels…like a less mobile Magneto with easier gimmicks, easier combos, a barely comparable zoning game, and nowhere near the XF-3 powerhouse that magneto is. Going from vanilla magneto to ultimate magneto felt bad as it is, but I can’t bring myself to sink even lower and play poopie Doom. Sorry Doom fans haha. Dormammu, on the other hand, is one of my favorite characters, so that just worked out well.
WE MUST SHARE TECHNOLOGY
I’m stealing your dormammu/Jam session synergy in one of those games, haha. I haven’t played Dorm heavily since the first couple months of vanilla, so he needs a lot of work. It’s weird playing him without a beam assist, but hey, no team is perfect.
I noticed that there were a few instances where you would do the zero combo and then DHC into the Dorm orb instead of Chaotic Flames. If zero’s is going to kill, then by all means that’s a good idea, but if you know that the character had over 800k at the start, you should dhc to chaotic flames as it does 100k more damage. I remember a ghostrider survived that shouldn’t have and another guy…I forget. You’ll want to DHC as soon as you can so that the character gets pulled through as many flames as possible.
I’ll probably steal that incoming mixup as well, so I’ll tell you my zero corner BnB that’s criminally easy:
1.05mil (midscreen to corner) costs 20% of a meter (most damaging, most meter, and easiest version)
ground - L(hold)MH(3), shippuga (3), launch
air - MMHS
lightning otg - jump, footdive H, buster, elec-L (hold), c. H, launch
air - MMHS
lightning otg - jump, footdive H, buster, elec-L(hold), call jam session, wait a sec, launch
air - immediate elec-H, stare at buster, release whenever the fuck, footdive H whenever
land, SKITTLES, immediate CHAOTIC FLAMES, mash for great justice while staring at opponent.
You can all rage now. That combo is buttfuck easy. There are tons of harder versions that do the same damage. I just kept evolving it until it couldn’t be any easier and it turned out to build the most meter and do the most damage.
Jon, I also have a lot of tech I’m trying to develop if you want to take this discussion to PMs. Current project is making Dante XF3 as nasty as possible.
Oh yeah, and I think there was a time when you could have done this with dormammu, another 1mil easy as shit combo. The trick is to hit the chaotic flames at the very very beginning of the OtG animation. It looks hard, but it’s actually quite easy.
dorm mid to corner 1meter 1mil damage:

I hope this doesn’t come off as like, critical of your play or something. I was really impressed, aside from GF lol that was crazy. You definitely have a bit more tech and better execution, especially in a high-stress situation. Cheers to coming up with the same top tier TEAM (character tier lists for a team game bother the heck out of me, and if you’re not trying to make a godly team, then what the fuck are you doing? /rant). I’ll probably be contacting you to visit your thursday sessions sometime soon, so we will meet eventually. Stay awesome.
That sucks that you lost your love for AE Jolay.
Thanks for the tips. I played pretty bad compared to how I played Saturday, was experimenting with my Doom team, but week 1 Doom wasn’t really cutting it lol. A lot of the stuff like chaotic flame doing more damage than flare, and the 1 mil corner relaunch I already knew, but sometimes it’s just a matter of judging when to use it. I think I’ve done the chaotic flame relaunch like… once maybe lol. I actually have a really cool BNB with him that I still haven’t made a habit out of doing using the wall bounce and teleports. But yeah, DHCing to Flare instead of Chaotic Flame is better if the flare will kill them since it persists to the next character, then I can hard tag Zero and do mixups with the flare. Basically more bang for my buck, but you’re right, on higher health characters it’s better to do Chaotic Flame. I actually Money matched the guy in finals afterwards just because I wanted to figure out his team, first to 5, and I ended up 5-0ing him with my Dorm team lol. Shoulda just ran that to begin with.
But yeah, you’re definitely welcome out, pretty funny someone else got the idea to run my team since most of the tech I use for them was mostly my creations. Will be good seeing if you have some cool tricks I don’t know about and stuff.
Nah, AE was just holding me over till better stuff came out. With Marvel and KoF, there’s a lot better MORE FUN options to play than AE. Soul Calibur 5 comes out here in a week or two as well so that’ll even further lessen my desire to play AE lol. I’ll probably put some time into it though since they’re doing weekly tournaments for it. If you ever wanna come out, they’re at Champps in triangle town center, wednesdays around 7-8.
Honestly, I don’t even know why people still play AE now. Before there weren’t really any good alternative 2D options but if you sit KoF and AE down beside each other, KoF is so much better. I guess it’s just a matter of habit that people play AE at this point.
Sup guys, long time no talk…(who the fuu is that Nero guy?) lmao–
Anyone going to CGS for shi’s and giggles? Also Soul Calibur 5 is looking rather hype.
It would be great if you could run marvel too. Greensboro is coming to this with about 5 people.
Mindgames Fight Club, in its effort to help grow the fighting game community in the Greensboro Triad area, has been hosting sessions for players (seasoned and newcomers). Mindgames has been searching for a venue that will allow for consistent weekly tournaments for people to train in a tournament setting in Greensboro. After a series of meetings, The PourHouse seems to be the place. Our initial pitch was for weekly on Tuesdays (as to not conflict with Rock Em Sock Em or WNB in Raleigh + its the bar’s slowest night) and he seemed very receptive but said he’d initially only allow us there once a month at first to try it out. But, if everything works out, he will open to us for weeklies.
In the future, we want to have speciality exhibition matches, team exhibitions & tourneys, etc…etc…constant flow of creative events to promote the scene.
But we need your support.
Our first pilot will be Tuesday January 24th 2012. TUESDAY NIGHT THROWDOWNS (ironically this name was picked out before SRK TNT was announced lol)
We don’t know drama. We just want the scene to EXPLODE!!! (see what I did there?)

KoF is better and too hard for me.
NO JON. Please don’t start this again. Just move on.
why you gotta be such a buzzkill austin
Trust me I use to love reading “game vs game” arguments or “our scene sucks because we have no drive arguments.” But SF4 is going on 4 years old now and that is how long these arguments have been lasting. Its getting tiresome. And its only tiresome because they keep ending in stalemate. Basically no matter what argument it is, the argument ends because people get tired of talking about it for 3-5 days straight. But by the next month or 2 we’re back at it.
Cheers.
Yeah but before it was like, you could pick SF4, or… well that was it. And then Marvel came along and peopl esaw how dumb it can be, or maybe they didn’t have the execution for it, or maybe their weak eyes couldn’t follow all the shit going on. Whatever the reason, people still said “hey, this dumbed down piece of shit is still better than that other dumbed down piece of shit”. Then MK came out and people STILL chose SF4 over it, whether it be the aesthetics, the weird ass system, or just being uninterested (can’t blame them).
Now KoF comes out. It’s got all the fundamentals of SF, on top of a sexy redrawn 2D package, on top of a faster pace, with a higher skill cap outside of option selects to push your game forward. Yet people still aren’t giving it a chance. I can see no other reason than habit on that one.
Long story short if it hasn’t dawned on some people. You don’t have to play SF4 anymore for a solid fighting game.
Yeah people are gonna play what they want but I’m damn well gonna push the best game out right now until people give it a shot lol
practice up guys
oh yeaa if anyone has a ps3 , my gamertag is tracey 9123 . i am willing to playing any fighting game ( ae2012, umvc3,kof13 ) tryna to level up my game fast thanks.
