TENNESSEE THREAD : HOME of THE ANGRY OLD MEN and PO' FOLKS

Joker - Man I haven’t gotten any of our matches on vid yet… but I’ll definitely get some next time… I have such a hard time vs Guile… If you get a chance hit up dragonplex on xbl… he’s got a pretty sick guile…

Dragonplex - do you ever get on here anymore?

Japan suddenly popped a rubbery one for Vega. I don’t know where they all came from, but they’re really getting a bead on him.

Yeah when I get back to TN we’ll get some matches in right now I’m on winter break back in NJ.

Plex has a pretty good Guile, I’ve played him a few times, even got a Championship match against him since I finally got to G1 a few weeks ago.

Vega has always been popular in Japan. There’s one Japanese level Vega player in America named Tatsu who regularly puts a beating on most of the Cali players, and gives the likes of Valle and Combofiend a run for their money. Vega is dangerous in Japan, but isn’t winning SBO or anything like that anytime soon.

[media=youtube]VJsCFnzyZk8[/media] - Pretty much the best Vega in Japan taking out one of the best Akuma and Sagat players in Japan. SBO 2009 first round OCV. Too bad Makoto and Dan lost the very next match.

I’ve talked to dozens of people about Vega, and from playing him, I’ve realized something. He’s only literally one moderate buff from being high tier. There’s a dozen things they could give him, all including fixing something about the mask and claw thing, which could make him mid to high tier easily. He’s already super annoying in the right hands, and he could be a beast with just one or two tiny tweaks. I think the same could be said for every character in the game, though.

Interesting predictions, Jason. My predictions are as follows:

  1. Dylon
  2. Dylon
  3. Dylon
  4. Dylon

… Because I spit fire…

ggs to jason and eugene at hickory hollow today. wish I could make it out tomorrow, but i’ll be ready to get some games in next friday and at kit for sure.

Well yeah thats pretty much what I meant. And I only played like maybe 4 or 5 matches in that whole hour because apparently after one guy paid for an hour then I did, EVERYONE wanted to play lol. And the only friend of mine that played that day was the Akuma player (who I think picked Ryu against your Dhalsim for one match, Shawn).

The only reason I brought it up is because if I lose, (which happens a lot) Id like to know what the other player was thinking. I was worried after I posted that because I thought someone might take it as me gloating about a few random matches but that was not my intention. And it wasnt meant to be a “Oh, you did this wrong or you should have done this” but more of a “This is what I did, maybe you can take this info and beat me next time, so I’ll have to up MY game”

Christ, I had no idea. I’d never seen a Japanese Vega before a few days ago, and now they’re all over the place.

Yea, dude. I just thought it was funny that the match was remembed out of nowhere so i HAD to say something about it.

What are the all day prices today?

Whats good guys I’m new to the site and stay in Nashville now…just looking for peeps to play with…Gamertag is Hoodieboi

Ran into Becky (Pat’s roommate) at a NYE party in Murf…

Jowin: Game Galaxy is where most of the peeps play and meet up. We have a tournament today.

GRam; All day Tekken and SF4 is $3 total.

Krazeejl: what happened today? You wanted a tournament on the 2nd and did not show…boo.

Yeah it figures… the ONE time I could make it for sure… :sad:

Been sick since Thursday and haven’t been able to shake it… I didnt think it would’ve been very cool to drive 3hrs, infect everyone, and then drive another 3 back…

I know its a lame excuse, but it is what it is… I hope the ranbat went well… did it end up as you predicted? In the future I won’t request dates… b/c unforseen crap comes up all the time… sorry again…
