seems tatsu was knocked out by evans, a feilong player
People say Vega vs Fei is a bad match up for Fei but IMHO itās 5-5
this is Joz
Yep made it out of my pool on winners then went 0-2 against Leslie froms ingapore who palys sagat and then Jayce the Ace
Next year
Iām about to play marvel at pool 35. if anyone reads this come say hi, iām gonna have headphones and red canada cup shirt.
makoto out too?
seems like a bad year for claw playersā¦
Just wait until the patch later this year.
Good times have been had but I am going to sucker punch the next fucking guy who loses to me and the first thing they say is "I donāt know the Vega matchup."
Excuses. Fucking.Excuses. Oh and the twat who was stood behind me in my first game trash talking me needs to dead.
Did you find any other Vega players from SRK at EVO BTW?
Who did you beat and who did you lose to? Yun / Fei ?
Ugh I hate that my only match on stream I got counterpicked with yun by a makoto player with a makoto stick, he might as well have punched me in the nuts -_-
Lost to Yun and Gouki in pools. Beat a variety of people in casuals.
āSeichusan Godanzuki !!!ā
A no-name Yun or a ākillerā? Cause Iād assume youād have the Yun matchup pretty much on lock* by now
(*- as āon lockā as Vegaās defense will allow)
It just felt like the whole online bullshit of dive, jab jab jab dive jab jab jab. No matter how hard I tried to get out of that shit, it just wouldnāt work. Iād knock him away from me and within seconds the fucker would get back in >.<
I had that and Iām not used to lagless monitors (Due to previously being unable to afford one) so it felt like I was even being thrown from like, half a screen away.
I got used to it like, by the end of Evo, but I think I wouldāve done so much better had I had the experience on one beforehand. I just flat-out refused to do any BnBs just because I knew in my head that Iād fuck them up due to being out of timing.
Threw away your BnBs⦠really? I understand the chance of eating a dp if you drop them, but I wouldāve at least went for it.
Ive never beaten a Yun with normal pokes alone :
(Genās pokes being -54 on block having NOTHING to do with it)
Iām starting an evo fund now so I wont get roflstomped by bad karma next year.
Its time evo pools saw some random gennanigans
Blaze, you gonna swing by and pick me up?
My horrible mindset of āI canāt do thisā¦ā just crept back up on me before my pools started, so I just played half-assed and just couldnāt get it going.
I know Iāll get it right next time, Iām going to just practice my ass off and do it. KOF13 for me next year too, that game is just too fun.
I thought you were going to quit SF
i only got to meet joz and cuban ace⦠the rest of you were hidden.
Is it sad ive never played a kof?
Im so sheltered
The only Claw players I ran into were Tatsu, German Luger and Cuban Ace (awesome to meet you in person, mang!) I played Poongko on the stage and got sent to losers. I almost had him the second match, but I choked and ended up just taking a round from him.
I went 7-2 overall, beating iPeruās Yun and Fuerte 2-1 off stream along the way before losing to a decent Fei Long from Mexico. I think his name was Kira, but Iām not 100% sure. If I had won, I wouldāve had to face Kindevu so yeahā¦
Hope to meet some of you next year if possible!
@gaf and elcuban
I saw your matches on stream, too bad you guys lost when the showlights where on you
Good fights!
I was sad not to see any vega later in the brackets, but its such a tough competition and AE does not favor defensive āsolid playā characters if your not Fei Long.
You could see that with nearly no charge characters AT ALL in top 64 and 32. (were there any?)
@francys
Sounds like tournament jitters coupled with a tough Yun draw to me⦠bad luck happens.
Having lagless ways to play at home will help im sure.
Hope to see you at SVB if your going!
I actually said āIām going to see if Evo changes my perspective.ā Though if people rather that I disappear from here thenā¦
Also, Vegaman, nice question in the SF x T panel, Iām sad that I didnāt get the chance to come up and say hi to you after.
@Emersion Work wonāt let me have it off =( sad panda
