Yeah I’m thinking the timing might be way too strict for the time being. I’ll probably switch it to Jam Session then. Seems to fit the synergy a lot better now that I think of it. Gonna be toying around with two setups then: Chun (Hyaku)/Dante (Jam)/Zero (Hadan) and Trish (not sure yet)/Ammy (Meter builder)/Dante (Jam or Crystal)
I’d do Ammy A2 if you are doing Ammy. With Chun having the badass meterless combo (that builds a ton of meter), a meter gaining assist wouldn’t be that good imo.
I’m using Ammy for my Trish/Dante setup, which I’m making my main team for now. Trish’s combos are sick and I love her style. She can rushdown and keep away as needed. I’m using Bloom assist because Round Harvest hyper is a good part of her game. Dante on Crystal extends well for ground combos into RH as well. If I see that I’m building meter during matches I might switch it up with Cold Star and put Dante on Jam Session.
Edit: Are we still having our Marvel party on Saturday at Rod’s?
I would personally avoid using Trish as rushdown; her tool set and low hp seems to suggest she’s better off as a zoner. But by all means, experiment.
Yeah so this weekend schedule:
Friday/Saturday at Rod’s (correct Rod?)
If you all want to get some casuals in after work, swing by. On Saturday afternoon, I’ll be bringing a second PS3 setup. I’m going to see if some of the Chinese crew want to check it out too. Someone bring an extra stick please! One of Rod’s is not in one piece at the moment.
I’ll have to experiment with matches. So far people are saying she’s pretty effective with both. Her zoning is amazing indeed. I’ll be bringing a stick then.
hell yes, come on down - party goes all night. (or until my 80 year old jet lagged ass collapses in a veritable heap) lets get some matches yanni I’ve heard good things.
well ive been a teir whore in every game ive played (cept ssf4).
dont see why this will be any different.
SENTINEL.
fuckin’ sentinel. Why does everyone and they’re mother like the robot. Vibrators not good enough? OoooooooooooooooOOOooooooooooooooooooooo
ever since I picked makoto in 4 everyone seems like a tier whore now. OMG STANDING ROUNDHOUSE
Brother, I really wish I could make it for today but I gotta make dinner. You can bank on me being there Saturday, though! Can’t wait to duke it out with you again!
I don’t mind people “tier whoring” and such. It’s a legit way of getting the most out of the games you like. We all want to be able to win as well as have fun. But I seriously do not get what’s so appealing about Sentinel (aside from his godlike status in MvC2). He’s the blandest character ever placed in a fighting game. He’s got no personality being that Sentinels were cannon-fodder type characters in the X-men universe. Alas, Capcom wanted to place fan service so there you go. I say bring it on! Trish will zap your Sentinel-asses to kingdom come!
Sent is very beatable. There should be three people playing with a splash of Sent tonight/tomorrow, so there is ample opportunity to figure it out.
But yes, Friday/Saturday is one long crackout session. New guys! You should really try to get up with us this weekend. Most everyone should be out.
Won’t be making it up tonight, but will be up early-ish tomorrow (1:30ish or so).
lol.
Also phone died. so i have nobodys numbers… PM’s PLZ
First post on the blog is up finally! Check it out, gents. I’d appreciate some feedback. Is there too much exposure? Not enough? How’s my writing? Any ideas for the layout? Maybe some post ideas? I was thinking we could do a “player spotlight” series of posts, like mini interviews with members of our community. Any thoughts, ideas, complaints and death threats are welcome so bring it on!
Edit: About nicknames, I just ran with what you guys had here on SRK. If you are using a different game handle just let me know and I’ll update the post.
It looks good Yannis. Use Trouble Brewing or Jason G for me please. But less blogging more practice mode imo!
So, anyone for Japan for my birthday?
Shoryuken - EVO Presents: Evolution vs. GodsGarden - May 6-7, 2011
Doing the best with the time I got in my hands, bro. I believe I got a much better understanding of MvC 3 now, especially blocking. Working on some combos now to get more damage in.
Man if only I could make it for that trip…if only…
If I got my money situo worked out by then I’d def be down.
I’m seeing round trip tickets for less than $500 US. We ought to do this.
A good plan, tho my money situo being that I don’t have any, definitely falls into the we’ll see category =/
For me it’s a couple of things. Work is in the way of course because I don’t think we’ll be going for just the weekend. More importantly though it’s Kim. Traveling to Japan is something we want to do together and although she would definitely be down to go to such an event, she’s got work too. A gigantic maybe from me. But I do hear ya, Jason. It quite possibly might be the opportunity of a lifetime.
Would definitely be interested, FWIW. Also, those who are interested my 22nd birthday/Shanghai Slamsterdam booze cruise, keep your eyes on your PM box, we’re gonna try and get this shit sorted ASAP.
