North Carolina Thread LXVI

Hey, a moving training dummy is better than one that holds still. Come on out haha

I would be down to show up for a tuesday gatheiring.

GGs yesterday shit was fun.

You just do command throw > jump, press forward with B+C. You get the hip bump which sets up the juggle and goes into HD mode. From that, you do 214D into whatever combo.

Yeah, you can’t really use the dp like that, but her defensive options are still pretty good. HD trick aside, I think she’s a good point character.

Hey, names Andrew. Go by ninjewnate too. Moving from el paso to charlotte are sometime in April for my job. Been there on business in late jan, near south tryon street. But didn’t have time to do anything else.

A lil about my fighting game experience…
Grew up in so cal, 10 minutes away from FFA. Played a lotta competative 3s (still do) and some cvs2 and mvc2.
Moved in 2005 to el paso. Good group of people here. Play a lotta umvc3 and some ssf4ae (don’t care too much for it, but everyone plays it.). Also play BBCS but want to get better.

Our best 3S players live around Charlotte, good opportunity I guess lol.

What is her HD combo anyway? Does she have one she can do off normal hits?

Also while on the subject, what’s Elizatit’s HD combo? Was messing around with both of them.

good stuff HOC. we will finish sharpening up your blade before you set out for mission ATL.

Ah, I think Liz has something similar to Athena on that HD trick, though with Liz it’s just DM into Neomax. I never see anyone use her much anymore though, yet she’s good.

I think it’s too late for me to learn a new character- but I’ve got a couple of characters I can do basic HD with, so might as well go with that this weekend, even if I know I’m going to get destroyed by lame-out zoning.

I think Liz seems pretty good personally, plus I think Reynald or the answer uses her on his main team. Biggest issue with her I see is meterless answers to rush down, but she’s still a beast. Shiny slaps all day.

Percival wasn’t intending to have some big gathering, it just kinda ended up that way because other people wanted to play and I suggested we merge the two gatherings. It shouldn’t be seen as an effort to further divide NC, which is already broken up into various factions for no reason other than geographical inconveniences.

I can’t do Tuesday because I have work all day followed by a class that runs until at least 9PM. Wednesday is potentially open after 5PM, I know that’s WNB though so it really depends on who all wants to play and what they want to play.

And as much as I love Tekken 6, that game is dead on a tournament level from what I’ve seen. It’s too bad. Guess we have to wait until the end of the year for Tag 2.

Or you can get into VF and give that a shot for a few months. I can’t wait to play that this weekend- I honestly don’t care about how I do in KOF as much as I do playing VF. I want to look at TTT2 and SFvsTK though. As much as Capcom had a shitty 2011, as much as I thought they’re incapable of making something good, it looks like SF4 closer to the way I wanted it, so I have to look at it.

Yeah, I’m not saying Liz is bad, I think she’s still one of the better characters- she wasn’t nerfed as much as Raiden (but I think Raiden’s still good, and I see more Vice then Raiden players)

Anyone in Charlotte willing to host for some games on Friday? I’ll be down there for CIAA.

Before 8pm if possible. I will be too drunk for words after that.

Is that time of the week again guys, you know the deal…come out to compete and level up!!!

Liz HD combo that I use is… cl.C f.B HD cl.C f.B dp.C qcf.C (dp.A HDC qcf.C qcf.C) x 3 qcfqcf.AC Neomax. Its in the high 900s and isnt difficult. The timing for the light dragon into heavy slash is annoying though they have to be really low when you hit the light dragon or the slash will whiff. They need to be in the corner by the time the first heavy slash comes around or it will whiff.
The midscreen HD combo is (dp.A HDC qcf.A) xN and is hard as fuck and not worth it.

Yeah I think shes a good character. Ex step is ridiculous and her light slash is really good.

Fuck the CIAA.

Thank GOD I’m not working this weekend.
Thank GOD for Final Round.

Please edit the first post. The ReSe on March 14th is in Greensboro, not Charlotte. I keep on double-taking every time I read that.

Its not a big deal. People act like they need to gather to get better when that is just not the case. Point situation example: I know more about KOF XIII than you do or most people so in a situation about gatherings the supply and demand function is in the favor of the person that has knowledge. I open my house up on wed for a reason and that reason is that KOF XIII at WNB is a mud sling of information and game play and i choose to not participate. I have practice mode, option analysis, experience and time on my side. I am not in anyway attached to training with anybody. If you want to train good, if you do not want to train good. I have learned what matters in obtaining goals and things that do not matter. This is one of them. I as well am a man of conviction and as well are not moved by the words of others.

Big words from a guy that doesn’t enter tournaments.

Get at me when they have that information tournament. I think you’re just scared to lose to the new blood.

It seemed weird to me that out of all characters he would pick one of Viper’s worst matchups to main, but Cammy sounds better.

If you could put the Wednesday night events under a different header not Tournaments. Put it under Ranking Battles (RanBats)?

Here is the link and the header for it…
