I suppose you’re right about the f.H OS. Usually if I want to be agressive I jump with a j.MS or go in for IAD/airthrow option select… sometimes though if I get grabbed and not tech somehow, their throw animation will crush the lariat assist and then i get combo’d/reset etc.
j.H isn’t a great option for Tron, since it’s throwable hitbox is big, and it’s active the whole time. If the opponent just jumps a few frames after you, they’ll throw you out of j.H’s startup, or even active frames (can’t tech that).
j.M is very good as long as you’re not in the opponent’s throw range. This doesn’t tend to happen in my experience, most players will either engage or completely back up. Instant overhead j.M is great vs. the brave soul who puts Sentinel or Nemesis on point, though, lol.
If you’re feeling yourself, or just have a really good read on your opponent, Gustaff flame will AA a lot of stuff for free - although if you’ve got a true AA assist like Haggar or Hulk, you shouldn’t ever need to go for this.
Also, this is off-topic, but I’m like, 95% sure that that “combo” is actually just another instance of the combo-counter glitch - the combo resets when the drones hit, but the combo counter does not. Normally, you can block the drones after the bolo.
A few more match vids from last weekend:
Here you go guys - Tron was the real star of this tournament, but X-23 gets in there a few times.
vs. Brootal (Dorm/Doom/Ammy). Dorm wasn’t as much of a problem as usual, brootal really hadn’t practiced much with him yet.
[media=youtube]TCxbcIP5slA[/media]
vs. Young Chow, aka guy who owns my soul (Task/Trish/Hawkeye). Illustrates really well how unassisted X-23 has trouble getting in on well-assisted zoning characters… I don’t even bother with Tron vs. Peekaboo, but maybe I should give it another shot.
[media=youtube]t6xJx6BVi-E[/media]
vs. Nashfan (Mags/Doom/Ammy, Mags/Doom/Phoenix). Some tournament-proven anti-phoenix tech inside… pretty hype, I guess… sigh. This is the match I would have won if I had practiced setups and combos more (spoiler, I lose)

3rd place finish is pretty good for not having a console at home, but I’m still pretty salty about that last match.
I really need to get a new adapter… The one I have is screwing up big time but anyway! I’m not sure if it’s already been said but any new vs. hawkeye techniques or strategys because I went to TRB and besides everything dropping/going wrong hawkeye vs tron is still pretty hopeless so I lost to him 3-0 any ideas guys?
Try this adapter:
I’ve got one, and it’s been working well for PS3 controller -> Xbox360, so I’d assume it’s just as reliable the other way around.
As for the Tron vs. Hawkeye matchup, you can get some ideas from my matches vs. Young, but yeah, that matchup is really bad if Hawkeye is backed up by good assists. If you’re somehow playing 1v1 Tron vs. Hawkeye, it’s not so bad - do the standard inch forward, block, repeat, until they run out of meter and/or hit the corner. You will have to eat quite a bit of chip, though.
ok… i’ve been trying to connect the ps3 controller to the xbox 360 and it’s not currently working the adapter itself will flash but it does not actually convert my ps3 controller to the xbox do u know how to solve this issue? I assume it has to do with the buttons on the back and i’ve been messing with them but im stuck
sorry to ask but can u help me out lol
Nah, the switches on the back are for PC only. The mayflash adapter needs a wired Xbox360 controller to sync the adapter itself before you can plug in a ps3 controller. So plug in the adapter, then plug in a wired x360 controller (any one will work - madcatz, gamestop, fightstick, but it has to be actually wired, not the charge n’ play cable). When the controller syncs to the xbox, you can unplug the wired controller, then plug in the PS3 controller.
The only caveat is that you can’t use the same controller you used to sync the adapter at the same time. At tournament, you might be able to get away with getting someone from a different setup to sync it for you, but it’d be best to just bring your own. If you don’t have one, check your local gamestop, they’ve been selling the WWE brawlpads for $13 lately.

And heres me vs Joker. They made me use the Tron alt against my will D:
48:00: is my match against RayRay, I think I did really well.
15:00: This one however… this is what happens when you send Jesus to losers (on a Sunday no less), he comes back and smites you. Can anyone figured out what happened here? He figured me out to the point where I dont even realize it.
Those were some REALLY nice sets against RayRay, I’ll have to steal some of that King Kobun safe-DHC tech. Also, you DO realize that the stream chat was calling you Baby Marlinpie, right? :rolleyes:
Yeah ive gotten a bunch of funny nick names, last time it was Marlin Cupcake, lol. And im also Canadian Winrich to most of the American East Coast.
Starting at 26:00 is my matches against Fonzo, then Justin, both Dallas locals - sucks that we were in the same pool. All of us were previously sent to losers by Stone, lol. I was probably at the top of my game that day.
Then on finals day, my train wreck of a match shows up at 1:45:00. I’d prefer if you didn’t watch it, because it’s probably the worst I’ve played in a very long time.
Took 8th in the end. Objectively, I know I did well, but the manner in which I was eliminated just makes me salty about the whole thing… just have to hold that L til Absolute Battle, probably.
Obligatory video dump time:
Me vs RDK:
[media=youtube]I_nit4xBgtI[/media]
Me vs Joke
[media=youtube]6ggL9aCGrQU[/media]
I dont think I played particularly well in either video, too much Persona lol.
Oh and if Magnetic Blast has already started, dont bother trying to use beacon bomb, never works.
wat do vs spencer w/ a beam assist or drones etc? grapples own instant air dash and i don’t like sitting on the ground vs a spencer in my neutral game, makes it too easy to get opened up by downforward zips
I’d say fM AA + call assist, but that could potentially get stuffed in it’s startup if mistimed…god I hate when they start frametrapping…
Played on the DomDotNineOne stream quite a bit a couple of nights ago mainly with my Tron/Rocket Raccoon/She-Hulk team. I also used my Firebrand/Tron/Haggar for a match and it didn’t go so well. My Raccoon is pretty much just an assist so don’t judge too harshly. I didn’t get to show off all my tricks with the team, but I did get to pull off my special Tron/Rocket Raccoon/She Hulk beacon bomb reset loop for large characters(Hulk, Nemesis, Ammy, more?), which you can see at the very beginning of the second link.
35:00, 53:50

25:00 Jing vs Me, I do well her.
[media=youtube]-7l2i7V_Pyo[/media]
Joker vs Me, I get bodied too hard. Missed too many Beacon Bomb confirms.
Oh my gawd I’m so bad. Georgia player here, just gonna post some of my matches
2:32:00 was my match. I was choking in the beginning, but I got my stuff down.

Generic Tourney Match

I get nervous whenever I fight Roachking

Input error at the end cost me the match. This also made me ditch Dante for good.

Wanna learn how to fight Morridoom? YOU DON’T. After rewatching some stuff, theres so many things I should have done, such as X-Factoring after the DHC from Morrigan’s Shadow Servant Super. Also that one part where I lunch rush Doom, I meant to King Servbot so I could get a meter into Lunch Rush…
Casual sets with my bro… I’m a little sloppy at first and sometimes I get her level 3 when trying to do King Servbot… It only happens on my TE stick Akuma is my supposed best character, but I was counterpicked with Vergil. Akuma’s limbs are too short to push block punish him. Sentinel goes 1 and 9 with him.
Any ideas on how Tron can hit Vergil? He anti-airs Tron for free with ANY button, can’t really punish swords and it’s rare to see any Vergils whiff buttons nowadays . My only solution seems to be using Vergil myself.
