how good was eli??? i heard at one time he was like best ibuki on EC?? maybe behind eddie lee??
holy crap, and I thought I was late to the party. lol
party…when…lol…we need a 3s party…
how about some info on eli…
or how about some of the top players come in her and post up some memories…stories…great comebacks…clutch performances…playing big names, something…
haunts tell us about getting 2nd at fr7, or what it’s like playing og’s like watson in a tourney environment…
how about you go practice combos in training mode? lol
I’ll tell you about ELI! Prolly had the most raw talent in 3S in georgia, but got bored with 3S. I think he pulled an ORO and became a 3S hurmet. I hope him and adam come. It won’t be the same without them. Even if they don’t bring they’re cabinet I would like to atleast see them again. It’s been almost a full year since i’ve seen those cats.
I’ll tell you about haunts getting 2nd at FR7.:rolleyes: My side wasn’t working.:annoy: Just kidding, he beat me fair and square. That was the greatest improvement in a player in 1 year i’ve ever seen. From getting last place at FR6. Trainning hard as hell all year to come back at FR7 and get 2nd place at your 2nd big tournament is big IMO. Some moments you remember for along time and maybe that was one for him. I can’t speak for neidel, but I will remember it for along time. I watch him level up while I was playing him. Just to see him pull off shit I didn’t think he could do under pressure was fun to play against. That was one of the few times i’ve lost in a tournament and I wasn’t mad that I lost.:wonder:
My .02 on getting 3rd at FR7.
cool thanks larry…haven’t you been to ffa…how was that…come on all OG stories welcome…this is why i made that thread awhile back about who was the best…i want to have something for everyone to be able to discuss…to be proud for our region…GO AS GO!!!
my most memorable moment had to be at that one augusta tourney with the whole jae incident. haha.
um…most memorable playing moment?..it was really fun playing those cali guys and flashg.
Well I ended up playing Eli for a long ass time and thats how I got a lot better. We ended up travelling around the SE to play tournaments and got to play a bit more igher level comp before FR8…
Eli is way good and so is his brother. I think yeah he just got bored with it and was more interested in school and stuff which I think is awesome too. actually i think its bullshit and he probably practies everyday just waiting to come whip up on us out of no where. LOL… just kidding, my makoto is too strong. haha.
I aslo went out and found June and played him a lot too. Once I got in some real practice against him and Eric Williams it really helped. but o know playing eveyone aorund here helps too, Eric J and eveyon else.
but I dont thinkif Larry would have come down and beat my ass at the game store I would have never really got so into in the first place. damnit old man. damn that hugo and oro. :arazz: i dont care if your stick is broken. just like you to be cranky about it.
I also really had a passion to beat Jae. I thinke veryone does. He brings it out in people which is a good thing also a bad thing I think. I think of the most intense most fun matches were against Jae Purvis, but he also used to really piss me the hell off.
I def. had my fun and I think I’ll always keep playing, but I just dont know how much longer 3s can stick aorund. Maybe Jay can level up and roast some fools at FR9. It just seem slike its getting more difficult to play people in that game. GA and th SE is so spread out and w/o arcades and everything its pretty rough.
fuck xbox live man. i cant stan dthat shit. theres something about just hanging out iwth people and playing that xbox live dosent really convey imo.
alright im done, u happy Scott? hah.
Yeah, I haven’t seen Adam or Eli since last FR now that you mention it. I remeber Eli was really frustrated with the tournament scene and the lack of originality. Too many people spamming on Chun and Ken. Eli was a great all around player and his Ibuki was really good…better than Eddie Lee?!?..I dunno, Eddie Lee hasn’t really been a big part of 3S since the 1st Japan vs. USA event a few years back.
Eli did take a few wins away from Jae’s Ken back at the Athen’s regionals with Ibuki which is freakin awesome considering how much Ibuki sucks in 3S (compared to NG and 2I)
My greatest 3S moment hasn’t happened yet…but man there are some crazy ass stories!
I’ve heard about this…but never the whole story…
Ted
jae would beast on dakota fanning…he doesn’t care about age…i like that…he is brutally honest everytime i’ve asked for advice he has told me…i have respect for him as a player…he is best ken in south…maybe East coast…wong’s ken was solid in those texas 4 vids though…but jae is good at lot’s of games and with lots of characters…
yeah haunts i’m happy…almost…TELL me what it was like at fr7…the pressure etc…if you don’t mind…
I’ve played DreamTR wilson…he beasted me with his necro and elena i only took a few rounds…Seeing that in person was fun…he is just fast…really fast…really good execution too…b/c he lives in cali where amazing comp is not far away and theres lots of it in every game…if only we where closer… we can still make it happen…i’m gonna do my damndest…getting my ass handed to me excites me…everytime i play you guys i get more pumped…i can’t wait till fr…and when i get my car…i’m gonna travel more than ryu dammit…KEEP IT GOING…
if only sf4 could happen…meh…keep it coming guys!!!
Change the title too the OLD MAN THREAD ted lol!!!
Scott…you denjin now?!?
The best of the 3S in AS…
Charlotte Mindboggle Tournaments (sporadic but always HUGE)…too bad MB is DOA
ATL Arario Monthlies! Too good and Ararios manager was the GREATEST
Athens Monthlies! really good but short lived…gotta love the basement!
OL Summer Series…yeah, I think our little series was awesome…hopefully it will return!
Final Round!..can’t help but appreciate the FR series…I’m glad it’s out of the Gym and into the worl of Air Conditioning!
Hey Larry, whatever happened to all that footage from last years FR? Might I obtain a copy of all that was recorded?
Ted
yeah i play denjin ryu, dudley, akuma, and urien…some twelve hehe…
man fr footage…hook it up…someone should put into files and upload it somewhere that would be tight…
yeah the summer series was really fun…esp the last one when cajun strike came and him and jae played a great set
scott, FR7 was kinda anti climatic. The right side cab was having issues all day and i was having issues with the left diagonal down so blocking was rough and so was getting off supers. I played Crow and he had a solid ken bu tI ha him a couple times and just no supers came out… i also got supered a lot because i thought i was blocking and just didnt happen.
man that sucks if you coulda took that home that woulda been dope…
so have out of towners always won final round or did any home town boys take down 3s at the earlier ones…was it alled final round then…wasn’t it something else??? or something like that…
keep it coming guys…but hey haunts you made it that far on those sticks so…you still did good!!! but it sucks to get there and lose i know…
LET GO OF THE PAST
FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE.
this is street fighter three, dog! i live by that motto!
PICK YOUR BEST ONE 5,4,3,2,1
don’t dl the new RanBat at ComboVideos. It’s corrupt or just plain broken…whatever you prefer to call it it doesn’t play past the 3rd set of matches…wait for the upgrade.
On a happier note…anyone up for 3S and A3 this Sat night!?!
Ted
