so since im new to this…theres only one name in the game that im really familiar with and thats diago…but im wondering if theres anyone else i should watch out for…im not saying im the best( and im not) but i am in the top 20000 in the world in champoinship points (around 16,000 i think) in sf 4, idk if thats really that good, but im also top 30,000 in ranked matches where i usually play, (around 10,000 chapmionship points and like 250 ranked match wins) i’m mostly in this to show you guys what im made of…that i can give an exciting match, im not too sure that ill make it past semis being my first time, but im wondering what its like being an underdog in this series…how people go about new faces, and such…
I’m sorry but I have to say this, lol online points.
eh, i thought so too?
Since you’re in Orange County you can hit up the arcades around SoCal [like Denjin and AI] and start getting your name out there.
This…is my goal. They shall call me…Sam.
Saturday is when I plan to make my move.
Online rank is meaningless. If you want to gain some understanding of where your game stands, travel to some tournaments in your state. Don’t forget that the EVO tournament is not just a local state tournament, anyone in the entire world can enter.
Too long didn’t read version:
/agree
You need to do tournies around SoCal. There are a TON of great players here that will gauge how good you are…
Your a disgrace boss
thousands of people would kill to live were u do
why you may ask. Socal has the highest level of SF4 comp in the world, next to japan
and you waste your time… ONLINE? what a scrub
sorry… what i meant to say was
d00d Ur s0 c000lz 4 h4vingz 5o ManY 0nl1n3 p0ints
i only have 3k and am beeerly g2-c. how do you do it???
maybe its cuz i play on xbox
:yawn:
For a first timer be happy if you get ONE win.
Is this some kind of sick joke? :wonder:
online = SRS BSNS :nunchuck:
This made me laugh. Your first time at a tournament with people from all over the world competing and you think making it to semis will be a given.
anyone here know jason osbourn? im not sure if thats how you spell his last name though, hes been on the scene for a while he was the one that told me about competing and even asked me to be on his team, im experianced but i know im not on most of your guyses level, but still insults i just didn’t expect that…im a kid whos trying his hardest at what he loves, i know you guys are too… jason even said i have skill, just i wasn’t trying hard enough…i’ve been playing at least 8 hours a day and i quit playing wow… that ontop of probally 1 year of all together game time…in basically every game (i just don’t like how xboxes look) but yeah dude ill try to get down to arcade infinity this weekend.

You are going to learn a lot about SF4… probably more than you can imagine. You will have a lot of fun, though! 
yeah man, pretty much exactly what deadfrog said. even if you are good, which i’m not saying you aren’t, you WILL play probably a thousand times shittier in your first tournament than you normally would have. plan on going to learn as much as you can and to have as much fun as possible, but not to win. if you are dead set on winning you will snuff out the fun you should have had on your trip.
you live in orange county and haven’t been to ai at least? you’re missing out dude.
im not into SF4, but welcome and good luck!
im not gonna take off if i lose first round.
im staying for the whole thing, i’m also thinking about entering the 2v2 thirdstrike tourney with a friend…i certainly wount quit either…i’ve come close many times, but i aint a quiter
Just start going to the big arcades around there regularly. You are in a very lucky location. All the practice in the world on your own or online is not taking you very far, even if you don’t know it yet.
Also even if online mattered being in the top 30,000 or whatever at anything is nothing to care about. Don’t be concerned in the least what yours or anyone else’s “rank” is online.
im heading to ai i think this sunday i’m kimnda chubby and have black hair (kinda long ) ill be wearing a transformers wristband
