double post cuz no one likes posting here anymore.
so today i was playing at suck zone. and i was raping this f00l with K-dan/ryo/yuriR2.
the sucker didn’t even know what hit him, i was like 'COMBO INTO FIREBALL SUPER’
and he was like “OMFG my name is DENTRON AND I GOTTA SAY THIS OUT LOUD SO WHEN ALLEN POSTS THIS MESSAGE ON SRK he CAN QUOTE ME DIRECTLY, THEN we’d ALL KNOW THAT I LOST TO ALLEN’s K-dan/ryo/YUriR2 TEAM LIKE 6 TIMES IN A ROW, BEFORE I BARELY BEAT HIM WITH MY CHEAP A GROOVE TEAM, THEN I’d BORROWED MONEY FROM ALLEN SO I COULD PLAY HIM AND LOSE SOME MORE. I OWE ALLEN MONEY!!”
and so, whoever this random f00l i was playing. man…his breath stank; smelled like pepsi with a mix of orangechiken/teriyaki with chowmein. GROSS :tup:
CvS2 has convex buttons, and you’re still calinng it “suck zone”??? =(
Anyway, your Dan team will never beat me. NEVER! If anyone uses Blanka or Dan against me, I’m gonna put R2 Blanka first…no way am I gonna fall for that dumb team…K-groove or A-groove, you will not succeed…
BTW maybe i should play R2 Blanka as first more often. A lot of the regulars at ZZ don’t seem to know how to fight him; thus, many OCVs today…
bitch PLEASE!! like running through my akuma/rolento with maki was challenging… if i knew you would get all uppity about you beating me 2 times with dan/kyo/yuri i woulda chosen a better team so just CALM DOWN before you lose to wakeup super xN in a tourney.
Elliot, do you still make sticks? I would like to purchase one since EBGames keeps pushing back the date of the SF Anniversary stick that i want to get my friend for x-mas. fuck them.
anybody got some power and RCA cables for the ps2 that they are not using? i want to borrow them during winter break…or ps1 power/RCA cables would work too
HAH i beat a real japanese on his own turf!!! They are very smart over here, no stupid bs that they mess around with. They caught on to my tricks in like 3 matches and then i had some trouble (not to mention the execution problems i was having on the japanese controls). short short super is virtually impossible for me with these sticks, i think c.remy would have stopped playing 3s long ago if he lived in japan, lol. alright, im off to see some temples n such and hopefully ill get to go to the a-cho tourney on saturday if time permits. PEACE
i repped that shit soo hard. I beat a guy’s zeig heil with p-dan, jump taunt and all.
Japan:
was sweet. im only gonna talk about the gaming part here, but if you want other stories ill be happy to tell a few.
Kyoto a-cho: this pissed me off… APPARENTLY somewhere in Kyoto there was supposed to be this huuuge a-cho tourney. so i went out looking for it based on the map on their website. well after maybe 2.5 hours i finally gave up the search after being up and down all the streets in the general area, including the street that it was on and i honest to god couldnt find it for the life of me. There must have been something i was missing, some integral part of the location (this is probably the case because the entire website is in japanese) even though i got several japanese people to take a look at the website. after that my friend and I went to the OTHER a-cho amusement arcade only to tell us that it WAS in fact ON the street where we were looking. That was one of the not so good days on the trip.
OTHER THAN THAT: the games were pretty off the hook however there were many more skilled 3s players than cvs2 players. I ran into a few good cvs2 players at this arcade near my hotel as well as a few at MORE in tokyo when i visited there…(will continue this soon)
Of the good players i played against, i had to deal with this one n-iori/(cant remember)/blanka r-2. I was kicking his ass straight up until his blanka landed like 5 mixups/tricks and he beat my bison straight… He even did that one where you bite, ball over, whiff elec, bite again etc. He liked to roll through jump ins and uppercut his opponent from the other side (jab version) while they wernt blocking, crossup roll uppercut is alot more annoying than i thought, i havent really had to deal with it all that much here in the states thus my ability to punish was pretty poor (not like i ended up blocking it all that much).
note: sorry if you guys know most of the garbage im talking about but no one i play against here uses some of the stuff they do, norcal or socal, so it seems like its new to me.
shoto c.hp is a crazy anti crossup, this dude in kyoto was hitting my sakura clean out of the air hella late while crossing him up, i never realized how good it was.
I DID A FREE JUMP IN!!! maybe ive been trying to do it forever, but i was k/c-sagat and i did j.rh while he did wake up super and i blocked it no problem. I practically cheered because it was soo cool, its a really neat tactic if you can do it consistently.
TODO IS A BEAST!!! OMG, buktooth was right when he said hes the best character that no one uses. I playd this one faggot who used a-ryo,todo,bison r-2 and i was SOOO angry by the time i left. if you keep your game tight then there is nothing they can do. sure his anti-air sucks (that elbow), but his ground game is alot stronger than i thought. I think the custom he was using was like, [fierce x2 (or 1), jab fireball] xn, super. The fierce moves you forward a bit but i think one or 2 times something didnt connect somewhere and he lost the combo. That d/f+mk is sick because it knocks them down and keeps them foos out. Id like to compare this particular fellow’s todo to guile, lots of keep out stuff, normals plus fireballs == easy keep out, unless ur character has a crazy ass roll (iori). once he got in hes pretty dangerous as well with that command grab or chipping/gaurd crush, a combo, or random activate into command grab into death. He does that thing similar to allen’s hibiki where hell activate and immediately command grab you so unless you jump away you get pwnd (whenever i saw him acrivate i was able to just jump away with bison so this wasnt much of a problem so most of the time when he customed me hed grab me first then activate). maybe more on why todo owns hard later, i seriously dont know why no one uses him, maybe because he has retarded ending animations?
Thank you, Dentron. You’d better not be lying to just so you can get me to lose a couple more games against sakuras at zz
I agree about ryo’s uppercut. At least the shotos start low with theirs, but ryo’s fist is at least four feet off the ground when it starts and it looks silly everytime I get launched because I did a low forward.
Hehe…rolling for the crossup DP doesn’t work as well if you keep moving back. Sounds kinda lame, but I guess the complicated answer is play footsies and know ranges. Hmm…my bad, that’s lame advice haha…
I learned how to do a free jump in with Ken, too. Those things are neat, aren’t they? I gotta go now, have fun at SVGL and if you ever run into ohayo1234, tell him I said wazzap…
