Ranking Battles at Fight night At Battle Grounds Vernon,CT

[Wednesday_s_Dagger]

So now I know who Saikoro is, :).

I don’t have a 360 but I have enough money to go that or a PS3, I can’t decide…
For now though I just use the 360 live accounts at BG, and the name in my profile is the one which isn’t active cause it’s not gold anymore. When I get on at BG, it’s USUALLY TBGM12 or TBGM01, but if someone’s using those, then I have to get on another random one that’s got live. I’ll send you a friend request to “Saikoro” on live, whenever I get there, though. If you got an AIM btw, IM me so I can let uk wen I plan to head down there ahead of time.

Tips For your Vega:

• Vs good players, you’re really going to only get your Ultra off as a punisher, WHEN you are spaced right–which means always keep in mind when you think your opp. might F up, so you know you can Ultra with charge & on reaction.

• Learn Ultra off Crumple state focus (again, space-situational)

• From what I hear, never use medium punch roll out of the two hard and light ones, I hear it’s punishable and there isn’t a reason to use it in the situation you would since hard would be the better option, but this one thing I just heard, so heads up…

• Your Ultra can be backdashed…watch the video below, it’s stupid, but just know about it. : \

• Learn to Kara-throw (canceling another attack to increase the range of your normal throw), for Vega’s use standing Hard kick. So,
  Standing Hard Kick (then) Forward+Throw
  It will almost feel like one combination but the throw is slightly after the Standing H.Kick.

• Combos:

1. crouching light punch (link to) crouching medium punch (cancel to) hard punch roll - this is a good punisher vs a SRK and leaves you in OK sweeping and Kara-throw distance

2. Down+Forward Harkick (link to) EX Izuna Drop - Big damage for 1 EX. You had this down, just perfect it (and good tick throws man, glad to see that)

• Videos: Vega vids r hard to find since he’s unpopular due to strength, (even in japan really unpopular), but u can find vids if u search right.
  Here’s an old (but good) Vega player, Bebeop, you can search his stuff:

Lookin’ forward to seeing y’all Friday.

I’d also be interested in ST. Sadly I have work this Friday, BUT I might be making a late appearance with Justomania.

[The_Realyst]

Good games to everyone. Hope I didn’t bore y’all too much with my down back Blanka. Every week is random for me whether I can get over there or not so you will see me there some weeks and not others. But hope to see you all again soon.

Oh, if anyone needs joystick work, hit me up!

[kona]

You sold me at UMK3 and Garou. Anyways, yeah, I’m going to talk to Shizu about it tonight to see if he’s down. I’m sure he’ll come if I invite him.

[System_1]

The Yoshimitsu player: I forgot your name, so I called you Duffman in my head, I hope you don’t mind. Thanks for the matchups as I’m still getting used to the game/system/the incredibafrikis new mixups Yoshi has in this game, so thanks for the experience.

Ah Yeah!! DuffMan!! I like that one, perhaps I shall use it somehow!! I was that DuffMan, and my name is Damien, but I go by (As you could see) Saikoro. Ive been using that name for about 7 to 9 years now, ever since Phantasy Star Online graced my DreamCast.

Im gonna certainly bring my PC come Mid-January once everything is fixed. You bet your damndest that were going to throw some Classic 2D Arcade Tournaments!!

I sent you a PM saying “hi”. Btw, you got a PS3 to get on when I’m at mine? Yeah, so add this to the questions in the PM when you reply.

The Q: Idk what’s up with my stick but the down back and downforward seem to be a little “eh”, wondering how much it’d cost for you to check it out.

Stick type: normal TE stick

[B.L.Pancho]

I’m down to rape in World Heroes Perfect.

snip

I actually know someone who rapes in Weapon Lord aka OG 2D Soul Calibur.

When you say SVC Chaos plus, do you just mean allowing boos characters including the force that is Red Arremer? Just wonderin’

=D

I’ll check it out for free. I’ll see what needs to be done and charge accordingly.

Yup. Every Boss Character is available at the select screen. Violent Ken, Zero, Arrermer, Demitri, Geese… theyre all there as if they are regular chatacters (Click here: http://www.arcade-history.com/images/game/4965_1.png) with NO need to input anything. Its kinda cool actually. But players opinions on being overpowered… thats another.

[kona]

SVC Chaos is in this shit too? Holy fuck this is awesome!

Also, anyone up for casuals?

[Gonzales]

i would like to but i have a final today at 2:00 till my brain explodes, then i also have a practical exam on programing a Linux shell crontab script:wasted:

[kona]

It’s cool Gonz. I ended up sleeping anyways because I work a weird shift later on tonight.

[Gonzales]

Oh yeah I almost forgot to tell you! Guile’s sobat in SF The Movie is the most broken normal in all of Street Fighter. Just ask the rest of the Springfield crew about it and they will tell you.
