Pikachu Tournament Results (UPDATED!: 4/24/11)

[Stealth Raptor]

bigman, come to columbus, i will be there :D

 

[KayLo!]

I'm definitely gonna be at APEX. Probably gonna be at Columbus too, but my crew is the last-minute type. Knowing them, we'll somehow not get tickets or something.

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

Ugh I thought we got 200$ to go to columbus if I place top 16 at this one. We don't...so if I don't make some big money I can't go to another one. Lame!!!

 

[Stealth Raptor]

wait what happened to that top 16 200$ stipend?

 

[bigman40]

Ugh I thought we got 200$ to go to columbus if I place top 16 at this one. We don't...so if I don't make some big money I can't go to another one. Lame!!!

Starting on the 3rd event. Orlando is the second one. You have to do good in Orlando and Columbus to get money for Raleigh (that's the 3rd event). Besides, place top 16 and you get paid for your trip to the next event. So top 16 or stay home ESAM =]

[Kenrawr]

I'm trying to go to Columbus! I'd pay $50 to help get ESAM OoS

 

[KayLo!]

I wouldn't, but I'd support your effort.

C'mon, ESAM, no pre-johns for not getting top 16. =P Paid or not, you better rep.

I predict Kyoshi's gonna pull some sick wins.

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

>_> I don't wanna pay 200$ out of money I don't have to go to another one lol. I mean, if I get money I'll pay my bro gas money and our partners will go with us and we will ****ing drive like men. But yeah, that won't happen unless we got 8th or better.

 

[Kenrawr]

I only say that because I'm sure ESAM will get top 16 obv.

I mean, the guy said he'd beat ADHD.. TWICE!

No but really I hope you get the chance to go OoS.

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

Me too. If I break even this tournament I will have enough to go to columbus. I have a few hundred stored in my droor lol. I got this ****

IM GONNA BE...THE VERY BEST, LIKE NO PIKA EVER WAS *dun dun dun* TO BEAT ALLY IS MY REAL TEST, MEW2KING's REIGN WILL FALL. I WILL TRAVEL TO OOS, PLAYING ALL THE TIME. EACH TOURNAMENT WILL HAVE RESULTS, ESAM IS IN TOP FIIIIIIIIIVE

Anyway...I'ma stop now lol.

 

[KayLo!]

I changed my mind, I'll donate $20 to the Get ESAM OOS Fund.

EDIT: AWWWW YEAH.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

oh jeez COME ON kaylo ;-;

 

[KayLo!]

Lol! I had to, I'm sorry.

If it really bugs people, I'll take it down, but it'll only play for this one page.

EDIT: Oh ****, that kinda sucks for people with 40ppp. I'll take it down by tomorrow, then. XD

 

[altairian]

I kinda like music playing when I click in to threads...especially songs as epic as this one.

 

[Kenrawr]

Jesus Christ ESAM.

You lost me $13.

$3 for losing to ADHD. $10 for beating Candy. Although I didn't really expect you to lose that. Just gotta support my buddy. I'm his only pika practice and I'm not up to par/we don't play enough

btw gj on 4th. didn't see that coming. you better go to columbus now!

 

[KayLo!]

4th?! Seriously?!

That's awesome.

 

[Syko_Lemming]

ESAM deserves more than an internet cookie for that. Great job man.

 

[Sasha]

ESAM > Anther. Done.

 

[Kenrawr]

Oh God no ESAM vs. Anther debate please. kthx.

We don't wanna turn into the marths.

 

[KayLo!]

You act like it's not inevitable, lol.

Just keep it clean, people.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

we shall see kayloz we shall see cant wait for columbus <3

 

[Dark 3nergy]

ya'll gonna come visit me at mlg Columbus and tell me how to play pika

 

[Pikabunz]

Anther will always be the best Pika.

 

[KayLo!]

Dark, I'll teach you in-between bustin Stealth and Kenny's ***es.

& yeah, Anther's still the best. ESAM did do really well, though, and I'm definitely impressed by how far he's come.

 

[Kenrawr]

You act like it's not inevitable, lol.

Just keep it clean, people.

no, but when we turn into the marths I wanna be able to say I told you so. ;3

/teamthrzyfornow

 

[Stealth Raptor]

imho from what i have seen currently from the other pikas, no other one could have ranked that high. we shall see though come next mlg

 

[KayLo!]

@Kenny: I never said we wouldn't, tho. You can't told-you-so somebody who doesn't necessarily disagree with you. >=(

+point for me!

 

[Kenrawr]

Stop hoggin all the "you". It was plural... gawd.

-point for you

+point for me

 

[KayLo!]

I say we calls it a draw. And you get your *** to Asylum on May 1.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

alright guys take this to the pgd before i start reporting people for having a topic that is not related to the topic of MY thread >=/

 

[KayLo!]

Asylum is a tournament. =P

 

[Stealth Raptor]

its was more aimed at the previous statement silly

 

[Gadiel_VaStar]

I always felt that Pika was up there w/ the other high A tiers. I think I may switch to pika for MK. Tips?

& phenomenal performance ESAM!!!

 

[KayLo!]

Ohhh my god, here it goes. Everybody and their grandma's gonna pick up Pika just because ESAM did well with him at MLG...... then in a month or two, they'll all be on to the next fad character.

No offense, Gadiel, I'm not saying you're like that. =P And I'm always happy to see new people. Just sayin. If you're only picking up Pika because Player XYZ did good with him, you might as well drop him before you even start.

 

[Kenrawr]

Dunno about Asylum. I'm trying to go to that thing in Philly on the 15th tho.

Also ~_~ @ the PIKA HAS POTENTIAL! thing. There are like 5~ people in my region that are trying to pick him up now. (before ESAM's accomplishment) They always act like they'll commit but then they break mah hart.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

yeah i dont trust anyone who says they are gonna pick up pikachu. his learning curve is just too high for most people.

 

[KayLo!]

Oh yeah, the one on the 15th is gonna be huge. And it's right in the city, so you guys could swing by and chill with us for a while before or after if you want.

Most of my crew has tried to pick up Pika at one point or another, lol...... and every single last one of them quit using him. People just don't realize how high his learning curve is. He looks so easy at first.

EDIT: Stealth ninja'd.

EDIT #2: Kenny, I'll mm your Snake with Pika at whichever one you come to. =X $5, best of 3?

 

[Leaf.]

Ohhh my god, here it goes. Everybody and their grandma's gonna pick up Pika just because ESAM did well with him at MLG...... then in a month or two, they'll all be on to the next fad character.

INORITE? Jeez...but when that happens we can sit back and say we were the originals(despite me being late as **** to the party. But I'm legit!)

And, in order to make this post legit as well, prepare to add some points for me! I have a tournament coming up on the 24th.

It's not even like that, lol! I've been thinking about picking up Pika for a while. ESAM just confirmed the fact of how good he is. I've already asked most of the top pikas about MK, so all is good. My control w/ him just sucks.

Can QAC be canceled w/out using a jump?

 

[KayLo!]

You can cancel QA on the ledge too, either by QA'ing from underneath it ("QA Scarring") or QA'ing down onto a specific point on the ledge. Or you can QAC horizontally to the edge for faster edgehogs.

There's a video of QA Scarring in the Volt Tackle Videos thread..... and a vid of the second example in PGD, which I'll get Prime to add a bit later.

Those are pretty situational, though. Usually you'll be canceling QA with a jump (or dair, but dairing straight out of QAC isn't really that useful).

Any other questions should go in the Q&A thread. =X
