Saskatchewan Thread 2012

So have you guys ever thrown local tournies in sask? When and where was the venue? How was the turn out?

Nothing here or serious in Regina that I know of. Most of us here just go out of town to tourneys.

GGs last night btw. Once you got warmed up I was pretty much dog meat. Add me on xbl if you friends list isn’t full. Sick Sagat.

Lol GGs man! I think our matches could’ve gone either way. You know Chun really well i could tell. Oni was a mindfuck and I definately need more experience vs him. I got your friends request. Invite anytime man! GGs

Ahoy.

I’ll be in Saskatoon in 3 weeks. Who wants to play some games?

If you get a chance to make it down to Regina i’ll run a 3s degen session for sure! How long are u in Saskatoon for?

err i’m not sure how long i’ll need. Maybe 2 days?

fuck, regina is like a 3 hour drive from saskatoon, isnt it?

Its like 2 hours and 15 minutes ish.

So Saskgamers is throwing another tournament in late april for SC2. It’ll be at the matrix in Regina again… Anyone interested in meeting up there? Throw down some casuals or maybe have a small tourny if there is enough interest?

I went to EB Games at the centre mall to try to pick my SFxT copy early haha. (It almost worked, the dude working the counter didn’t know it was released but his colleague told him it wasn’t released yet). They told me that a store broke street date, does anyone know which store they are talking about? They didn’t give me a name

i’m sure if a fighting game tourney was hosted in regina, most of the regina guys would show up. would saskatoon? you’d have to ask them as i’m not prepared to answer for them. would be fun if they did though, we could do a lil regina/saskatoon match fun.

I’d be down to show up for some SC2. I’m more interested in learing SC2 if ppl would be willing to show me the ropes. I’m really really really bad but I love watching SC2.

What games are everyone playing in Saskatoon these days?

I tried again to learn UMVC3 but I just can’t do it. No matter how hard I try I just can’t get into the game. Looks like I’m stuck with SSF2T and SSF4ae2012, but from the sounds of things everyone’s moved on?

AE2012 mostly.
Planning on getting SkullGirls, and want to start playing KoF13 more.
New stick whenever SFxT comes out (or at least fairly close after)… so Tuesday I think (?). I need to pay more attention to these things.

Did you show up to the last barcraft? And yeah man we have alot of great players in regina, i’m sure any of them will show u how to play. This one guy, Richard, has been in Grandmasters before and has beaten Huk on ladder (Doesnt mean much since its ladder… But shits still impressive). I also think we had this korean dude called Juno also get into grandmasters as well…

I don’t know any of the stoon players… Maybe Ric will come down and play you burzy haha

No but i would like to make it out to the next one. If there was a level below bronze i would be in it lol. I would rather play ppl i know and learn the game than get roflstomped online. Not many ppl are willing to beat up on a training dummy.

Well it certainly is nice to be back just before the release of SFXT. However before moving forward I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to the staff of canada cup gaming for my unfortunate remarks last month. I am deeply sorry to lapchi,greg and troy for the incident and I hope in time you guys can forgive me and move past the situation as I plan to do:)

With that said I hope this community can move past all the drama and onto new things and better times. Speaking of which, that regina tournament sounds like a good idea and I hope people take advantage of it. Im sure most of the regina guys would attend but im unsure of the saskatoon players seeing as how we have been a inactive bunch for quite some time. Maybe SFXT can spark some interest again and between saskgamers and this thread we can try our best to reach out to new players.

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

Also your signature is clearly there to incite shit, so don’t go saying let’s let the past be the past. You are such a fucking miserable hunk of flesh.

INB4 incorrect use of the phrase “white knight”

white knight here, sup

I don’t get why SFXT wouldn’t have fei in it’s roster considering they have law. They already established a theme with the inclusion of rufus/bob and christie/elena so why not just throw in fei to up against law?

The game is still a day 1 buy for me but it’s unlikely Ill take the game that seriously since my main is gone. I would hate the idea of having to play catch up by learning a completely new character while other good players already have their mains included from previous games.

Play nice, or I will send you packing from this site.

Have a great day.

Sim plays like shite in SFxT, he was cut off my team before I had even finished his trials . . . there’s enough rush down / pressure characters with good pokes to replace Fei. Law just doesn’t really seem to fit that bill.
