The New Tennessee Thread - We have Acrade Edition and tournaments out the anus

Nigguhhhhhh

NO. Mike and I are already teaming. “BlackJackPirtles”

Team Black and Mild

I’d say it is a fair assumption to say that any team with cage on it is just team johnny cage and other guy

Team Ninja Mime starring Johnny Cage

GGs to everyone I played at Abe’s place. Really fun night.

i am best phoenix in memphis. just ask flymike.

thats not saying much…

lmfao

bwahhaha lovin this. also, dude on the right rocking the derpface.

Shoutouts to Phil and Patrick from yesterday at GG.

Phil - Glad you came up for a little while. I died laughing after we played a few matches in Marvel and you said, “Yeah, your team is definitely different.” Dorm’s flame carpet shuts a lot down, and it’s a free mixup on characters first coming in (if they don’t have airdashes, double jumps, or air supers).

Patrick - I knew it would be us in grand finals. It was a lot of fun, especially when it came all the way down to the final match. Your “Team Tier-Whore” is good when Hulk doesn’t hit them once. :rofl:

GG’s to everyone at my place last night. Now I’m at work, fuming because half my shift didn’t show up to work. Fuck this shit.

Shoutouts:

Squabb: gg’s man, it looks like I was on the frying pan and pork chop diet last night. Kept eating them left and right. How can I still suck so bad against that character? I’m gonna run that shit back Wednesday night. Codeine games ftw.

Eraser: Random X-rays on wakeup. Got to respect that. Stryker win pose is awesome. Stick with Mk, lol, it seems matginally less broken than MvC. Also Godlike Phoenix. What you know about crouching A?

FlyMike: As always, a scholar and gentleman. Make that ShangTsung looking fucker look good. Frame traps? yes we can, don’t hit buttons. Very nice Sektor play, makes me want to play him again. Also, 214 combos that don’t…combo? /shrug. Oh yeah almost forgot that 4-armed bitch. Low tier what? Don’t jump!

Bishop: as always making me look free with all characters in the cast. That Noob is nasty, vs Nightwolf. I have no idea what to do with that. It’s like vs oldschool Sim or Guile again. Maybe I need to play Kung Lao vs Noob and see how that matchup is. Thanks for coming over man, see you weds.

Orel: you are free! Fuck yo Ermac, fuck your ezmode Mags combos lol. Wish we weren’t so busy and actually had time to break down the fucking Ermac BS. Oh well, it is what it is. GG’s.

Jas: Tier whore for life. Thanks for coming over and helping break some shit down. Mileena is a dirty dirty whore. From Whore Island. Talk about a butterface.

Everyone else. thanks again for coming out, sorry the place is so cramped, hopefully I’ll be moving into a bigger spot in a few months and it won’t be so bad. Shoutouts to the unusual suspects, Woot, don’t for get yo wallet and yo 20$ MM fund. Blasian, glad you finally found the place, your Chun is actually quite decent. Dax, Johnny, Justin, Marcus, Chris. Hope you guys had a good time. We need to cut shit off at 2:00AM or something next time, Imma bout to fall asleep in here. Good times.

LOL :rofl: good shit man… fuck off, I’m on meds right now!!

Why is there no major site for MK strats? I’m looking on TYM, which has a very good guide, but very little general discussion. I still don’t understand a whole lot about MK, and having some sort of strat forums for the characters would help a lot, but there’s nothing on SRK, either.

Edit: Also, LOL at Squabb’s new sig.

MK Stratergy

  1. push buttons
  2. block mids low
  3. projectiles full screen
  4. play top tier characters
  5. Deal with it

Prima needs to pay me now, I just wrote the new revised guide.

If anybody hasn’t picked up MK yet, Toys R Us has an in-store coupon (check the flyer) for $10 off both 360/PS3 versions. I’ve read that the sale price is $39.99 but have yet to confirm it for myself. If so, $29.99 for MK!

I said it wasn’t directed at anybody… not even you. I know you didn’t ask us to change systems, some others have. If Josh doesn’t want to compete on PS3, I respect his decision and it doesn’t have anything to do with what I mentioned before. It was a general statement, as you can usually see in the first page or two of ANY tournament thread.

Yeah… I want this.

LOL WUT Pear Plushie

Too true, dude. And zoning is a new beast for me. Putting Mags on point was a total dice roll, and for a minute there, I really thought I was losing it. But between dat 7 frame lazers and southside swipe, I figured he’d have better spacial control than just Wesker with the gun.

Also, fuck some jump D hitbox.

Mags wipes the floor with Hulk, and with my assists, they only help lockdown. If I can corner Mags, control the air with Hulk, AND use Dorm’s assist to control the ground, it gives me mixup opportunity. And we know that one hit kills him instantly.

Mmmmm, that j.S hitbox is delicious. Ambiguous crossups and amazing reach.

Lol putting Magneto into a corner, that’s funny. Magnetic shockwave super jump fly dash dash dash, what corner? Magneto has the best damn zoning tools in this damn game.

A few things:

  1. If you have a 360, you’ll probably want to sign up for the XBox Rewards program. You get points back on purchases, points for taking quick surveys, renewing Gold, purchasing featured titles, etc etc… free points are always a good thing.

  2. MK9 and Portal 2 are on sale at Amazon for $40 and $35, respectively. Portal 2 on PC is $30, but if you own a PS3 it includes a free PC copy (at least it will when PSN comes back online), so that’s still the better deal.

  3. Outland is REALLY damn good. It’s like somebody got their Ikaruga in my Limbo. With a sword. I definitely need to pick this up.

  4. And because people just don’t seem to pay attention to gaming news, PSN is coming back up sometime this week, and the Playstation Store later this month.

  5. Happy birthday, Glasscock!
