Nice.

OSHI

One question: Is MB:AC going to be out in time for this tournament? If not, I’ll run the same setup as last time (we just need more heads… somehow).

not too sure, just bring the setup

Fuck your date gavin. Go crack!

Good choice in dates, now people in the area can go to all 3 major events and not have to miss one.

Is anybody ever going to step up and challenge me in ST? Or will I have to keep dominating until ECC next year?

Also, how many tournaments do you think I will mysteriously get “eliminated” from this time around, without losing twice?

Will I listen to Nestor and pick a Sentinel-based team in MvC2, to avoid smashing the cabinet into pieces after it refuses to block basic Magneto rushdown?

The answers to these, and more questions, at the next TGA Ranbat!

Unless the UPS truck loses my delivery between today and nov 4th,I’ll be more than willing to help with the MB:AC tourney.I can bring my console as well as a copy of the game and extra stuff like Tenka and NGBC.

(I didn’t get my copy in time for the last ranbat anyways,so even if i came i’d be MB:AC’less)

this is perfect too,since i have PLENTY of notice to take the weekend off.

So unless something goes horribly wrong,expect me there this time. :tup:

LOL. See yo ass at C3.

DSP if I come to this I’ll challenge you in ST as well.

$10 3s?

“$5”

it’s the return of the beast of fucking HADES? i hope yall be ready for me this time around. i got’s to take nigga’s out so i can take that shit. AND NO ONE’S GOING TO STOP ME!!!

10 dollars in 3S sounds good to me. 2/3, 3/5? Just need to secure a ride down to this ish now.

Can’t wait… fear genijin

I hope to fear your Genei by the time I get there. My bro uses Yun as well so maybe you guys can teach each other stuff if he comes.

wat you should fear is hades?

Question for marvel players attending this ranbat:

I was thinking about running another low tier marvel tourney. Last time it took waay too long, but mainly it’s because it’s the first time we have done this. I think we have learned a couple of things. Master Chibi brought out a good point on the nec7 low tier marvel thread… He asked to bann Doom, Cycke, and Blackheart cause those mid tear characters become top tier when against low. So let’s take a poll, choose a senerio:

senerio A

We play low tier marvel with ratios, but with a few minor changes.

-Cycke is NOT a ratio 1, he’s a ratio 2. (sorry Tony, I guess me and you need a new character in our teams).

-I don’t care what the “top” marvel players say. Glitched juggz is retarded! I’m not going to bann him, but he’s now a ratio 2. (If you want to pick him as a ratio 1 fine, but no glitch, simple as that).

senerio B

-Not only are the ussual suspects banned(cable/sent/storm…etc…) but the 3 main mid tiers aswell. Cycke, Doom, and Blackheart are banned!

-Every other character is is allowed and the only ratio 2’s are Strider, Megaman, Iceman, Omega.

Let me know wich senerio everyone likes… and we’ll try to make the best of it…

~Shankar

Yeah i did notice that. Nestor is psyching you out man.

Gavin good shit on the dates I look forward to actually playing you this time. Fucking Nestor is too beastly

Shankar good debate about the new ratio for some of the low tiers, get some players together n see how it works out

y run the three main games at the same time, run guilty gear at 4—brackets will run smoother-c’mon people-ADAPTATION

So you’re actually going out and buying version B.

I still think it’s a total waste of money, but damn now I got a reason to practice stick.

;p

**NEW JERSEY.

Sup I SUCK, did I play you in anything? :looney:

Shodokant123: I didnt knew Yun had a new super. Are you still practicing during school hours? :rofl:
