UIUC Thread Part IV: BBBBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRR

what up, all? i finally got my pass word changed, so now i can log in. anyway, stephane is right; they adapt sooooooo freakin’ well. yesterday i went back to tachikawa again, and had a very off day. don’t get me wrong, i am not making excuses – they had me pegged from the moment i sat down. i am having an absolute BLAST playing these guys! there is so much to learn from them. i have already become a much more defensive player because of it. my execution is alot better now, as well; it has to be to even stand a chance! lol but seriously, i am doing pretty well, considering. i am definitely losing more than winning, but i getting things out of it, so to me it’s like winning. by the way, here’s the game list that i am bringing back with me:

  1. svc chaos: snk vs capcom
  2. kof: orochi collection
  3. kof: nests collection
  4. king of fighters neowave
  5. power instinct matrimelee
  6. samurai spirits tenkaichi kenkakuten
  7. vampire: darkstalkers chronicles
    & 8. namco x capcom (it’s an rpg; doubt you’ll all have much use for that)

that’s pretty much all i got for now, but i will keep you updated. i am very, very sorry i can’t be with you guys at evo. i will be pulling for all of you, of course. anyway, take care, and i will talk to you later. the neglector has spoken…

p.s. - james, i have played some sick dudley’s over here – don’t worry, you’re doing shit right. show ‘em who’s runnin’ shit in chicago this month. :wink:

yay, least im doing somethin right with him haha

Im really lookin to play Neowave, matrimelee, sam shodown, and darkstalkers!

Jerry, i saw you IM’d me but you signed off, but anyway, 5K mappa DOES work its just that its not a cancel anymore. You gotta superjump cancel it. Its tricky but thats how it goes.

either tiger knee it or 5K -> 9236+p or k

i like the second way better.

It’s actually just a just cancel, not superjump cancel, but yeah, it’s the same thing Dizzy does to get 2D, icespike.

Andy-
I guess it’s me and James then. Woo?

speaking of dizzy 2d… that move stinks now. it’s shorter than what it was in original xx, apparently. whiffing it from a hit-confirmed 2k is the worst feeling ever. the shitty part is, they removed the frc point also so you’re totally boned if you whiff it. :crybaby:

i’ve also found couple of strange glitches already with dizzy in the console port.

Online Evo reg still isn’t up yet. wtf.

hm intriguing … thanks james.

yah, i wuz wondering bout what i could actually do with 2K if it didn’t cancel into anything.

2k connects into 2h. it’s a 2-frame gatling window.

also, 5k x 5~6 into mappa looks funny.

more funny is 5S x 4 -> 5K -> 2K -> 2D

yeah its not a superjump cancel but kinda like a ground jump cancel thingy

‘cheap’ is more like it. nothing to lol about there. D:<

scott, i’m pretty much confirmed about coming down to champaign this weekend. let’s game saturday afternoon or sunday afternoon.

sounds fine. when you guys come down, we can prolly meet up at nickel city. the AC tourney is that evening anyways.

yeah, i probably runnin a 3s team tourny friday as well

you are running 3s team tourney for evo north?

wow, james is such a valuable member of the community.

due to some minor mashap, i will not be going to champaign this weekend. sorry scott, see you at evo north.

WTF? Why not?

…played the baddest -ass Necro that I’ve ever played today. Also, an insane, INSANE Gouki. Seriously, he was pulling kara - Raging Demons out like crazy (FWD+SP, Raging Demon). These guys were just, geesh…scary. Cool as all hell, though. One of them was actually helping give me pointers to extend my Urien combos. He told me that he was really impressed with my play though, which is pretty cool. It really is true; playing these guys with any kind of regularity drastically changes the way you play if you just let go of the proverbial steering wheel and let them drive for a while. I am starting to do things that I NEVER would have thought of stateside. Plus, I have been standing back and just watching their matches with each other a lot as well. I guess this wasn’t really a true update, but that’s what went down today. Good times, all around. Toodles, all…

I got Mike over James first to 5 when he gets back. I bet Mike’s thinking right now “I cannot wait to pwn James when I get back!”

hey, c’mon now. it’s not even like that, chris. what i can’t wait to do is share what i’ve learned with james – i mean, he’s my teammate, you know? however, you have to remember that for the longest time it was me that was trying to catch up with james’ level of play. if this is anything it’s just me getting back up to where i need to be to be competition for him again. let’s not discredit how he’s done at the last, like, 3 tourney’s that he’s been to – top 4 in every single one, as i recall. one of which was against george.

but, uh…between you and me: yeah, i can’t wait to pwn him! lol

rawr

Chris, I went ahead and payed the 30 dollars for out GG team. We just need one more person. You can just give me 10 bucks at the tourny.
