QUACK QUACK QUACK— you guys heard that, eh XD? Good stuff! It was interesting to watch different scenes play match ups against others. Filia was catching alot of people off guard. I WARNED YOU! I WARNED YOU ALL ABOUT FILIA! I got blown up by Double/Peacock. As much as people talked about it I didn’t really have great experience against that composition… but I do now. We don’t really have any of that in our SoCal sessions D: . Note to self: Be less stubborn and use Item Drop assist. Was a ton of fun though :D. Almost as fun as fighting Filia.
Also, Double resets. That bird is like a coal mine canary. When it goes down, you know shit’s about to get really foul (I fought every urge in my body to type fowl).
ALSO also, http://yfrog.com/kgrqvrbj now belongs to me! Mwuhahahaaha! Thanks again so much SG team :D, and an extra big thanks to Alex for signing it too!
One of the guys from our scene got 7th. There was another guy from here who could’ve easily got top 3 this year, but he was sleep deprived from our drive there (no more 8 hour drives!), still finished top 16 though I think. I’m coming back next year for one of those envelopes. This is going to be my game. I’m gunna be a contenda, dammit!
Yeah, I’ve been on the recieving end of some Filia/Val and I respect the character, but the hairball changes seem like they’ll add quite a bit to her game. Opening up airball loobs midscreen alone should up her damage significantly compared to the cast with the new IPS.
Filia was is amazing right now and I can’t wait for the patch to drop so I can enjoy her new swagneto combos. I wonder what new messed up resets I can find ^_^.
I just started picking Filia up and now I see she’s pretty much the only character where practically every change was positive. This is going to be interesting.
Shew I’ve been returning to playing around with Skullgirls for the first time in a while (since a month after it released). Mainly I’ve been trying to find a character to be second to peacock. Hopefully I can find someone after the updates and start playing more seriously after the patch. I was using Double’s shoryuken+HK attack for a get-off-me assist and and push back assist but it looks like thats gonna get nerfed like hell (honestly for good reason its OP as hell) so I’m shit out of luck there
persona had a really busy booth all day, and it was next to skull girls. I was playing milkcow (or cowmilk? apologies) and had the advantage, had all three characters and just killed his filia and was setting up my incoming mixup which would have resulted in me winning.
but then some ass hats backpack hovered in, covering the entire half of my screen leaving me blind for 5 seconds until i let go of my stick and push him out of the way. by the time he was out, I was done a character and a half.
second game, similar situation, only this time some guy almost knocked over the monitor. like, that shit was falling. milkcow seemed to be pretty sorry over the whole matter, and told me he didn’t really feel great about his win, which i appreciated (although he is a really good player, on of the best filia’s i have ever been up against), and i kind of lost it on the persona booth.
it was my first ‘GAMES ARE SERIOUS BUSINESS’ moment of my life, which i felt bad about.
Ah. Harsh, man. That’s happened to me once before too so I can understand the rage. There wasn’t much of a pot going in my situation though so I can only partially relate
