No tournament will let you play DLC right now. Those characters are still not balanced with the rest of the cast. If you never practice any of the original cast then you may never play in a tourney cause they may never be allowed.
Actually, Registration is going to start as soon as the door’s open to the place! WHICH IS a lil after 10. I’ll be there when they open. Just give me a minute to set my lap top up and then we can get things going. I’ll be getting things set up along with some fellas that will be helping run the tourney. So you can get some casuals in if you come early. The game’s should start around 12:30 or so hopefully not to later than that. Cause if there is a big crowd for it we need to get started soon as possible so we can get the whole thing ran!
Sorry dude, DLC is never allowed unless They are on the disc… Same thing goes for Marvel. Jill and shuma are not allowed either. You have to purchase them online. Some people dont have the internet or just don’t download them and imagine going against something you never seen before… Not there fault they can’t have internet. IF MK ever gets a new release with them on it then by all means they are all the way legal. but untill then dude I can’t help it.
I can understand MK DLC not being allowed, but Jill and Shuma for MVC3 are usually allowed at tournaments - and if I’m not mistaken you kinda need internet for MVC3 anyways since you need the latest updated version
Alright I allow those then. The place I’m having it at has wifi. I’m really not worried about jill or shuma anyways. Not many people use them.
I HAVE played in a tournament where they were allowed. The reason why is not balance. KL/Raiden/etc. are still the top tier and basically DLC characters have the same crappy time trying to get out of their infinite blockstrings and wakeup games as anyone else.
The reason why they were not allowed in Evo was time. Skarlet had only been released for three or so weeks when Evo happened. Kenshi has been released for a week or so. Rain wasn’t even out, and Freddy hadn’t even been announced.
Now I constantly see other tournaments not allowing DLC because “you can’t prepare”. I was under the impression that tournament players would make an attempt to prepare. There are streams. There is Youtube. There are forums written specifically for each DLC character that highlight their strengths and weaknesses, and their best and worst matchups. There are links to more videos that have in depth discussion. More importantly, there is TIME now. There is almost zero way that a player who somehow found out about this tournament does not have online, considering that’s how the tournament is advertised.
But like I said, it’s OK if you don’t want to see the tournament scene change, and you’d rather see it stagnate and die. Have fun though. We wouldn’t want people to be at a disadvantage when they are already having to deal with Kung Lao, Johnny Cage, Raiden, Reptile and the like or lose.
I’ll sign up for AE.

Look dude, Not going to argue. First of all I personally don’t even have all of the DLC characters. I’m holding a MK tournament for you guys who really like the game. I personally don’t play it at all that much to even have any of them. I’m just trying to look out for you guys who love the game as I do with my own games. I’m just going by what I know. For the major tournaments as of right now. They have all been not using DLC. I’m just trying to go with the flow of it. That way people know what to expect and not like WTF?.. PLUS Freddy isn’t even allowed in tourneys. HE IS BROKEN TO THE POINT WHERE YOU CAN’T EVEN HIT HIM HALF THE TIME SUPPOSEDLY. LIKE ALL OF HIS HIT BOXES ARE MESSED UP AND EVERYTHING. SO THEY ARE HAVING TO FIX HIM AS OF NOW. I’m just going by what I hear and what to do best for everyone. You know… I don’t know if you played any other games or anything… but every game has its set of top tier characters. It will forever be like that. Sometimes for a COMPETITIVE EDGE if your trying to win and AS much AS I HATE TO SAY THIS. IF YOU CAN’T BEAT’EM JOIN’EM. BUT IF YOU WANA PROVE EVERYONE WRONG AND PLAY THE CHARACTER YOU LOVE AND SHOW EVERYONE YOUR THE BEST THEN DO SO! CAUSE I WOULD PERSONALLY HAVE MUCH MUCH MORE MAD RESPECT FOR YOU. Cause that is the true way to play! I’m sorry this has upset you. If i could get everyone to bring a console that has all the dlc characters with it. Then I might consider it for next time. I don’t wana leave a bad taste in anyone’s mouth for this tourney. I want everyone to enjoy themselves, have fun, and get acquainted with everyone. This would help our community much more than this little dispute dude. I don’t want you to be upset with me dude. Just want you to understand I’m just following what is going on right now. Next time I’ll see to it about DLC. Just understand what I’m trying to do. I’m trying to build our community from the ground up again. Ever since our Arcade died people have dispersed. This is bringing people back into the groove and our community is slowly but surely coming back together. So if you still wana play, just be a true sport and come and play man! I promise you will have fun if you come with your friends and chill and hang out. Anyways not trying to lecture you or anyone in here. I’m here for the people and I wana make everyone happy. I know I can’t make everyone happy but I’m going to do my damn best too!
Pre reg list updated!
Anyone see any problems let me know! :tup:
I understand. But the character I love is Skarlet. So I cannot give you what you want, which is to play and win with the character I love.
The reason you can’t hit Freddy is his Nightmare Stance makes him move back, and his EX Hell Spike has him crouch pretty low. But you can’t combo anything into Nightmare Stance into followup, and EX Hell Spike, well, uses EX and can be avoided by crossup punches on wakeup. It doesn’t seem like it’s something inherently broken. Anyway I won’t get into a Freddy conversation since there’s already a forum about him.
If you’re in need of a console with the DLC characters, I can provide it. But I do understand if you still think it’s unfair to everyone.
I will consider going. Like I said, it’s FAR. lol But I will definitely consider it. Don’t put me down for a prereg as of yet though. If anything I’d like to have some casuals with other people, NOT online.
Just for anyone who hasn’t had the experience or the chance of playing them yet. Next time it will be considered
I’ll tell you what. I will try my damnest to make it there and in casuals I will show everyone the DLC characters, since I’m extremely familiar with them.
It’s a long ass drive, but I’ll try.
Put me and my friend down for Marvel
(me) Name/Tag = Rolondo Smith/UGSeph
State = GA
Game = MvC3
(friend) Name/Tag = Jermel Bennet/Baikou
State = GA
Game = MvC3
Put me down for MvC3 and most likely AE.

Hey, I was wondering if i could pre register for MVC3 and SSF4:AE?
My name is Edgar Galindo from Seneca, SC
Just depends how many set up’s we get. Probably will start whatever has the biggest entries first. Then go from there.
Alright Guys! Pre Registration close’s at 7:00pm Firday August 19th! but reguardless you can still attend. You just have to go through the process a bit slower. So don’t think your counted out!
