Yo Shin Blade i was saying since they patched his Infinite his is pretty worthless now.
Preach the truth. I have barely been getting to play in Knoxville despite all the talent we got there. Early 2011, I was hosting every other week. Middle of February hit and all I do now is grind in school, drive every other week to Memphis to make money and help family, get grants and internships at UT, and deal with the fiancee. When I get some free time, I do play fighters a bit, but I’m indulging in different games now like Chrono Cross, Darksiders, Streets of Rage Remake (I highly recommend), Hard Corps, teaching my fiancee to play Mass Effect (easily the hardest thing in my gaming resume next to beating NG:Black on Master Ninja). When I finally do fighters again, it’s fun but I can not practice and practice and practice like before. The only reason I have not jumped hardcore into Tekken is because I have told myself it will be incredibly time consuming. Is it true? To be as good as the players in TN, yes. I aspire to do well in these games so it’s coming, but after MK and before TTT2. I’m too late for the T6 ship.
Oddly enough, I feel like a better player than before. Part of it is going to a few tournaments in the early part of this year (although I missed FR because fiancee went into the Emergency room that Wednesday. she’s fine now; also, big ups to the Nashville crew for coming out and again to Memphis for doing a tourney). Jason has been really instrumental as well by reminding to play to win (I’m so new to this, I goof off too much and now try to consistently be more solid). Playing about 20 percent as much as I used to and playing better makes me feel like I’m really leveling up.
Also, you are getting a 360 or I am getting a PS3. Every time you mention certain games I’m like “yeah I’m playing it and destroying it too” and then we can’t play together because you have the other console. I was a Hard Corps genius a month ago. I’m thinking about attempting arcade mode completion in May. Now that’s some dedication for your ass :lol:
Have you tried using Cap? If someone taps you and has one combo down they can do over 50 % on any character (air combo, two shield slashes and charging star)… The infinite is far from a big deal. Now if they nerf him and take out charging star, he would be ass
Memphis, whats the update?
I mean we have a Mahvel tourney with a buncha scrubs waiting for woot to take their money, but Dax is going to be hosting for the first time today. Plus it’s just not going to be Marvel at Dax’s.
Anyway, my vote is to go to Dax’s. It would be fucked up imo to leave him in the lurch just because some last-minute tourney shows up. Maybe woot can tell the smash guys to keep us posted with shit like this so scheduling conflicts don’t arise. Personally I’m almost sure it’s Cyner throwing that tourney and it will be 98% scrubs, no real challenge for the strong players here.
Of course that’s just my 2 cents, please post up or let me know what the call is going to be for the day. Because I was already planning to be at Dax’s around 2:00PM.
i’m going to dax’s. probably around 4ish.
Nope. Not me. I don’t even know how to play Marvel…In fact, I’ve never even played MvC3. I’ve only ever watched. It’s fun watching though.
Me and squabb will also be at dax’s sometime before 3 probably.
Btw,gg’s to Lycan last night. that was a very satisfying training session.
Except Im much nicer , and post Random Videos… [media=youtube]CAth9xAhDO4[/media]
Just landed in the great city of Bowling Green, KY. Gonna do some shopping with the missus. I left my camera bag and tripod in the trunk of my car and we drove my wife’s car so I’ve got to buy a tripod and microphone to get the interviews done.
Hooray for spending money you weren’t planning on.
Did you keep the reciept?
SSF4 AE details on balance, version select & Spring Fighter stream : News : EventHubs.com
“Also, you can select between Super Street Fighter 4 or Arcade Edition when starting the game.”
So no Super vs. AE offline. Just AE or Super.
Good.
owned.
You know>>>>>>>>
After years of playing Marvel vs Capcom 2, I just realize today that the only character in the game that has a TRUE Infinite…is Anakaris…
EvERYone Else has to use supers to kill you with some type of INfInite…
Anakaris is the ONLY Chacter in the Game that does not !!!
:amazed: :amazed: :amazed:
VERY INTERESTING…:china:
Damnit!!! I’m always late to the new topics…
Anyways to reply to the discussion a few pages back, I agree that TN has got to have one of the best fighting game scenes out there. Granted I can only speak mainly for the Mid TN area, I haven’t met many of the memphis folk either. But from stories I’ve heard of my buddy who moved to Washington… If the majority of fighting gamers are like the ones he’s dealing with, you guys are a shit load better than that. You guys were more than welcoming to me when I first popped up at the arcade trying to get into some tourneys and stuff, you guys are all extremely helpful when it comes down to it, and you guys can talk shit without anyone getting bent out of shape about it, and in all good fun. Plus almost all of you guys are funny as hell and just cool people to chill with
My friend in WA says he can barely even get shit started, he’s found like one or two people to play with him out of at least 20 something people, and they’re all shit talking nerds who don’t seem to give a fuck about welcoming new people to their group.
This is why I’m convinced you guys are the best, and have been so far… PLUS TN KNOWS HOW TO PARRRTTTAAAYYY
Does anyone want to join me tomorrow at gg? I’ll be there from noon to 4.
I didn’t play MvC2 much, but I ALWAYS thought Anakaris was a bit underrated… even after 10 years. The stuff I’ve seen him do in videos is unreal. Unblockables, infinites, and resets galore. It’s extremely entertaining to watch.
Unless weather is really crappy again, I will be @ GG somewhere in that time frame. I’m driving back to Knoxville from Memphis again
People using google maps to get to eternal gaming. The map that shows state street as a neighboring road is incorrect. Use a search for Shenanigans wine and spirits for a more accurate location. They’re in the same lot.
True, I’m just saying he’s the guy that’s hard to understand for outsiders.
How close is he to Seattle? Those guys are super strong so if he is looking for some comp in that area that is where I would go.
