SoCal Garou MOTW Casual Tourneys

I’m not going to miami thanks to the fucking hurracaine the tourney was canceled for like a week or 2 so thats more time to practice for me. I really want to take th e GAROU tourney but supposedly there is a guy who owns every body in FL going, ha :nunchuck: I think is time for me to show the true form of Jennet.

BTW I’m know using the fire kim guy his cool.

Also I see everybody at svc.com talking about a tourney, I cant post there cause I dont have an account but anyway why go to so much trouble when we can have OD2k4, come on guys we just need to convince uncauzy :tup:

Do you know this guys name, cause I played 2 people from Florida when I went to E3.

Hey I can’t believe you guys are having regular Garou Tourneys I am stuck up here in Oregon with no one to play. I was at Evo, you might remember me my name is Ross, I use Kain and everyone else. I wish I could get there to play all these people. OH and magician that combo with BUTT we were trying to do at evo doesn’t work. I tried for a while when I got home and I can’t get the super to land. I am sure it’s not possible.

What combo is that, I might be able to help you out with it if its a real combo.

Well I thought it was but I am pretty sure it’s not. It’s just C, L. DP break, qcf+lk, Maxed out Ranbu Super. But I am almost 100% sure it doesn’t work they fall to low for anything but the Kick super to catch them. OH and this is corner only obviously.

Master Giby & KabukiMono - nice to see both of you on.

I didn’t give this combo another shot cuz I’ve been concentrating on practicing some new techniques (at least new for ME) and mess’n around w/ characters that were formerly not on my play roster.

Just so that other people get a clear view of what we were try’n to do, this is what itz SUPPOSED to look like:

Corner your opponent,

  1. jump HK
  2. HP
  3. dp HP (break)
  4. qcf LK
  5. qcf x3 HP x10+ = MAX hits (aka Ryuuko Ranbu - secret super)
    (for those of you w/ a turbo controller, I HIGHLY suggest using that for this super :bgrin: )

Here are a few special notes:

  1. You can pretty much do this same combo, but just use his super uppercut on step 5. I suggest use’n his S super because using P supers in this game tends to be a waste (they tend to only take off a little bit more than an S)

  2. Whenever you are do’n any sort of launcher in your combo, most likely your break, do the STRONG ver. It may not LOOK like it makes a diff, but for many peoplez combos, this is the ONLY way to get the combo off. The strong versions tend to pop up your opponent just a bit higher, which becomes integral for more precise and damaging combos. I know this is DEFINITELY the case for Jae and Gato… and prob for most other players as well.

  3. Tho I didn’t get to thoroughly test out this combo, you want to make sure that the max ver of the Ryuuko Ranbu comes out. You will know whether you did the max version or not when he starts off w/ fireballs and ends w/ the 2nd kick of his qcf HK move. To test whether everything from this super will hit, it maybe wise to 1st go to practice mode and set your opponent on jump. If at anytime during the super, your opponent gets “freed” (falls out of a juggle), then you KNOW that this CAN NOT be used to complete a juggle combo (which is what we were trying).

  4. You MIGHT be able to expand on this combo if you mess w/ feint cancel’n chains. This would of course be between steps 2 and 3. You could prob try do’n HP, feint, HP.

Have fun guys… and if you guys try this combo, let me know whether it works for you or not. Keep play’n.

i’m bored… i think i’ll steel a wheel chair from some crippled grandma… :badboy: … then sell it on ebay… :bgrin: … kidding of course…

Hey, good seein’ ya here! Say, were you, by chance, somewhere in the front when Daigo waged his comeback against Justin in the semis? If so, I think you might be in the video footage.

MMM I was sorta towards the front. I don’t think it’s me though.

Hey whats up people, well here after a great day of GAROU at my place my self, nate, magician yesterday showed up to my place for some games. GGs to magician hopefully will see more people on saturday at masatakas place :tup:

Alright peeps, I know this comes a tad late (what else is new), but this is the OFFICIAL word.

The FIRST OFFICIAL Garou CASUAL is:
THIS Sat, 9/11 at 5pm-whenevers
Masatakaz shop: Xaos Cards and Games
5642 E. La Palma Ave.
Anaheim, CA, 92807

(714) 693-5007

So far it looks like we’ll have enough stuff to set up 2 stations.
tvs: 2
controllers: 4
dcs: 2
games: 2

This SHOULD probably be enough, but if anyone else has any other donation items, feel free to drop me a line. I know a lot of you out there have your own custom controllers that need converters. I would suggest that you bring your own controller, but I can’t guaranty have’n a converter for you (at the mome I only have one - that handles both ps and saturn controllers), so if you have a converter, please remember to bring it. Btw, does anyone happen to have an extra S-video cord for the DC?

Oh, and for extra entertainment’s sake, I’ll be showcase’n a little known import saturn exclusive from '97: Groove On Fight. Hopefully some fans will show up for that too heh heh. :bgrin:

Keep play’n!

i might be able to drop by later on that night, after 7-ish, if it’s still on… dam chili cheese fries, why must it be soo good… grub grub grub grub grub grub grub grub grub grub grub grub grub grub… think i ate too much :xeye:

See you there

So much fun last nite :tup: a lot of GAROU training and some rally good alcohol :clap: .

Hey good games to everybody who showed up and much props to those who staid for the after hours.

MOO you are the man for introducing me to that delicious elixir called SPARKS. Playing GAROU with a buzz is an experience that I will never forget. :rock:

MASATAKA thanks for letting us chill in your place and trying to explane some of the shit that was going on in the MAGIC cardgame, even if at the end I was even more clueles :wtf:

MAGICIAN alot of fun last nite cant wait for next meeting.

and everybody who missed it make sure you get your ass there next time.

dam bastards kicked me ass again in the game… and that magician, sooooooo cheap… more cheap than before cheap… bastard… SPARKS!!!

Well, I think we had a fairly decent turn out for our first OFFICIAL Casual. If memory serves me correctly, we had about 10 fairly serious contestants come out. Not bad.

THE ANSWER - good look’n out. You are 1 of like only 3 people that I’ve met so far thatz given me some decent critique on my play. And yeah, I’ve noticed THAT prob before and shall try to correct for that a bit. I still can’t improve your game play all THAT much more which is kind of a good thing, but I SHOULD at least be able to give you pointers on what to look out for from other characters/players.

I’ll be talk’n w/ a few of you guys before we have our next casual to see what we can do better. I will TRY to get more serious about this stuff so that you guys can become more competitive. Something thatz STARTING to become a prob is the lack of adapters that we have. I seem to be the only one bring’n mine, and yet almost everyone seems to need one.

I will probably be taking orders fairly soon for adapters so that we can hopefully get them for between $15-20 depending on how many people order (the more who do, the better our deal). The next meeting SHOULD BE 9/25. To all the players who made it out that day, thanks for stop’n by. These things should only be get’n better. And to those who didn’t make it last time, I hope you can make it to the next one.

Keep play’n yallz. Peace

quickly here, 'case people didn’t know by now, me and magicians are buddies for the past decade… so this is why i talk crap about him… it’s for pure fun :bgrin: …

Hey Magician you forgot to let me borrow the adapter. Man I can really use it this guys if FL are talking a lot of shit man saying that they are own me in GAROU and all this bullshit come on, I really need to show them where is the real GAROU and SNK scene.

Hey GIBY I would love to play with you before I go to FL for some intense training I want to destroy this guys and show them what socal its all about I’m willing to drive to your place and MAGICIAN if you want to tag along you are invited.

I know some of you have seen me play GAROU and I know all of you got my back, and believe me I will honor my mission and bring those titles back home :tup:

represent so cal for us ANSWER… next time we meet, i’ll provide a better challenge… peace out.

THE ANSWER - Hopefully I’m able to pass by you perhaps some time on fri? Man, you’ve come amazingly far for play’n only about a month. I guess that should tell you guys just how far KOF skills can take you.

moo - I SUCK w/ Terry, so I’m gonna need your help w/ him. Crap man, my Grant play is start’n to get kind of diluted cuz I’m mess w/ at least half the cast. Heh heh… :confused:

Btw, I’m still do’n research on the adapters. Does anyone have any special comments, ideas, requests or suggestions for the next meeting?

Keep play’n! Peace
