Tallahassee Thread: 3 times the Marvel, 3 times the Capcom, 3 times the butt kickings

Yeah sure, I can do that. I can only stomach about 15-20 games of Super using the King of Down-back, though. Shit is so… boring as fuck, lol. Everybody else on my roster you could pretty much maul with Rufus/Abel. I could probably play relatively well against Ryu with my other chars, though, since its a match up I’m more accustomed to dealing with.

If you folks can stomach it, I’d like to play everyone else in Super at some point before heading to FR. Don’t really need too much time: a FT5 if nothing else.

Drew- If we can get a SSF4 tourney in there too I can probably bring my setup (not sure if I’m gonna go if it’s just MvC3).

-Felipe

I got 3rd place in CVS2 at FR3 mainly cause they screwed up the bracketts, lol. I think one year I tied for 5th in MVC2. Did pretty good in GG reload one year.

we’re on a pretty tight schedule and spacewise Felipe, so im not sure how possible a tournament would be. Still a couple free play stations couldn’t hurt for dem MMs

Chris
don’t tell me super is getting boring son, ur the only one i got to play it with.

defenitely want to play as much super/marvel as I can before final round, so if you want to play just let me know! Hit me up 386-847-2728

logan didnt u place tied for 5th in t5 with that hot ff2-1 with paul. lol people were so salty.

Drew:

Just wanted to quote that for emphasis.

All of my other chars are fun to play with and I can hold my own with them, but would get mauled by air-to-ground and gimmick style rush down because I don’t know how to deal with it outside of using Balrog or Guile, so that’d be a waste of time to play.

Marvel question:

I’m having a problem with air-to-air matchups. Chun/Akuma are my best air-to-air combatants, but Ryu is typically on the screen the longest and (what I perceive to be) the weakest of the three at air mobility and move priority. Light tatsu is completely unsafe if I do from a height higher than a normal jump and its pretty easy to get on top of him because of his lacking mobility. Any ideas?

GGs Steve

Lol i cant believe you brought the box of teddy grahams to my door. Shit had me DIEING! lol! :lol:

Hit me up sometime and well go over fundamentals and basic game mechanics. For right now just hit up pmode and work on what we discussed.

Ryu might be a character where he has slower normals but good priority if the move is already out. which means air to air you might have to do one of his moves preemptively which might not be the best thing in the world to do. I know TK tatsu can be decent, and i remember crespo saying that shotos crouching jab (albeit ground to air) were beating alot of things out in the game as anti air. Which also if it lands from a certain height can lead into normal bnbs. Also mobility wise try adding some good back-wavedashing to your regular wave dashing to get different mobility out of him. I havent really tested ryu out but i hope this helps somewhat. Ill hit up some training mode tomorrow or friday to see what i can find with him. Just shooting some ideas out.

Well, as I initially thought, I found a death combo that works on half the cast (anyone with 1mil or less life) w/o x-factor, but it uses 4 meters.

Ron will never boo my Dante combos ever again. I can get 1mill off of 2a now :bgrin:

GGs Matt… holy crap I just found out that they are making changes to the Walmart weekly ad, apparently I just got hit with a RollBack. Hahaha.

I will definitely use this weekend as a 72-hour Pmode camp for myself. And also the next 51. Then - THE REMATCH!

Your the only person i really have yet to play in Marvel. Let me know if you ever have some free time. Or you could come out tomorrow to the slc at 7pm?

lol! Yea man anytime.

Holy shit, Trish is… kinda fun. And good. Might put her in to replace Chun for now. Maybe. Chun with X-factor (any level) is a force to be reckoned with and Ive barely scratched the surface with her movement options and DMG potential. And Haggar is… kinda effin slow, but hell, I could make that work. I’ll need to learn some better BnBs, but I could make this work.

This Akuma shit is a kinda hard (at the moment), but I’ve gotten a couple of Tatsu loops. Got some new relaunch goodness, too, as well as some new corner combos and assists setups.

Also to note, finally got a legit 1 mil w/ 3 meters and no xfactor, If I can get these Akuma loops down in real matches, I can cut that down to 2 meters. I know they are going to patch that infinite shit out so I don’t even intend to waste time learning how to replicate it.

I’ll boo your Dante combos every time I see that prerelease easy mode crap! I know you’re better than that, and that’s some junk Logan would (and does) do!

I would not be surprised if they don’t patch it at all honestly.

I like the way you are analyzing the game and your play even in particular though chris. It’s good stuff. I honestly think a lot of questions you have been asking, at least for me ( maybe because I’m not good enough at just figuring crap out) come from straight matchup experience. Like in marvel 2 I can pretty much tell you what any of the god tier characters can/should do in most situations, but I honestly just know that from over time stockpiling scenario specific knowledge. Again, could just be my specific learning style ( I have lots of things I need/ intend to work on myself), but if we get the chance to play some, I would definitely like to try to answer some questions as they come up, and discuss ways to get around problems etc.

I’m not sure why, maybe cuz of quitting wow, but I have the desire to actually learn and be very good at this game kinda like I did back when I learned marvel 2 , before wow took over and halted my progression somewhat!

Even without wow though, I don’t have quite as much free time as I would like to for training etc., but every time I get the chance for online sessions with any of you guys, please do hit me up.

Will do. Back-wavedashing is something I need to get better at anyways to create more space. I can see where you are coming from. There are probably things I’m trying to beat out that Ryu just… isn’t meant to beat out. His jumping A is the best air-to-air maneuver I’ve seen in his repertoire (similar to Chun) so far, and by God, if I have to spam it, then so be it. I’ll work on comboing from that too, so that I can maximize my damage output and meter building with him. Anything you could come up with would be appreciated.

BTW, I need to see some of these Chun combos you’ve been busting out. Her DMG output is just a bit too low without X-factor and at some point, people will start blowing up Legs assist. (which obviously means I should work on how to maximize assist usage, but… that probably will take a lot of time)

Logan:

We learn the same way, methinks. I know my main priority in any fighting game I play is to figure out why exactly I got hit and how to work my way around that, and from there I can devise training regimens, strategies, etc etc. Definitely looking forward to our sessions. I would have played you yesterday but that Wolverine was looking a little too hot for Week 1 Marvel play and Im not at the skill level to properly deal with Sent yet…

REALLY Digging Tron and Magneto… I’m thinking one of these two will be my Third

Sweet quote from the guy who only plays one of his characters…lol. 5 bar Zero is a beast! That good battery battery main team

<3 Tron. Just as a heads up, don’t copy those combos you saw me doing, using the drill in her BnBs is way lower damage than the real combos into super and such. Next time we meet up I can show you some of that hotness, or whatever the kids are saying these days.

On a side note to everyone, anyone have a good idea what might be a good third for Chris and Tron? I’ve been messing around with Arthur, Dormammu, Morrigan, and Haggar, to some decent effect, but I feel like I am missing something. I’m not even sure how much Chris and Tron really compliment each other, but I can’t bring myself to not play them a ton.

GGs. Tonight to James/Terrence.

in Marvel and in that TIGHT bullet-ho game.

Ill see you guys after work at the SLC tomorrow(today).

Everyone:

I need help picking a third. currently using Zero with Uppercut assist and doom with rocks assist. any ideas that would be a good third for some synergy?

also trying to learn the doom buktooth loop and i’ve gotten most of the combo down c.M -> c.H -> S -> sj -> sj,m -> sj.fh 0> addf -> c.M -> c.H x2 but i can’t seem to get the last c.M -> c.H can anyone tell me what im doing wrong here? thanks in advance!

I would really like to sit down with logan or andy or someone who really knows the system sometime soon. Could one of you guys help me with the fundamentals of this game, i would really like to get good at this game to keep up with you guys, but i feel like im running against and escalator an not going anywhere. I would really appreciate it!

So AT&T is on that bullshit again. My touch screen stopped working AGAIN, which means I can only pretty much take calls, and make calls to people who’s # I remember. No texts, and no calls. Ironically though, I can call Ron, b/c his number is one of the few numbers that comes up when I type 850 :-/

All this to say, if you need me call me. No pun intended.
