SoCal Melee PR 12/29/2013 Update

[joeplicate]

yeah it's me before connor
I've beaten him every time we played except at mango juice, we both lose to oscar/dave afaik
I beat dave at scsa and sfsu
since I moved back I beat him twice at the 1st connors, he beat me twice at the last one

The last 2 are the most important, but I'd still put him above me. I feel like results-wise we're very close, but honestly I think he's just better than me right now

and I forgot joey, whatever, everyone knows

yall *****es better watch out
I'm movin on up in those rankings
(or at least in tourney results because the rankings won't get done ever)

 

[Deleted member]

I'll get rank 10 in 10 months

 

[Atlus8]

Kira hasn't beaten me in tourny since 2006!

 

[joeplicate]

yeah johnny I think you'll be ranked really soon too

depending on stabbed by hipple does

 

[ConnorTheKid]

the day an arcadian gets ranked is the day I request to be taken off the PR. LOL

 

[joeplicate]

no johns *****
the whole point is to inspire players like johnny to get better and represent socal in the future
plus, that's no arcadian
he's a spartan in training

 

[Lovage]

johnny was born a spartan

 

[ConnorTheKid]

I didn't say that in reference to Johnny. I think Johnny's good wtf.

I mean, if SoCal loses enough good players to the point where someone terrible is on the PR, I'll be sad.

 

[bbb]

I'm on the pr

now quit

 

[Deleted member]

im not in arcadia

 

[bbb]

ya arent you like china man or something?

 

[Kira-]

no real point in making an official PR, but if you guys bug us enough we might do it

1. mango
2. lucky
3. larry
4. lovage
5. kira
6. replicate
7. connor
8. fly amanita

of course you should do it, there's no real point in having an inaccurate PR lying around. you make it sound like it would be hard to decide who goes where, much less change the image in the first post.

your list is perfect, i doubt anyone would disagree (except fly and connor may be interchangeable? i think fly beat connor the last two times) but romeo goes to enough tournaments to at least be ranked, and he always performs well so he should be 9th.

The last 2 are the most important, but I'd still put him above me. I feel like results-wise we're very close, but honestly I think he's just better than me right now

im surprised you'd say that
results wise we are very close

i'd rather leave it at 9 cuz i cant think of anyone who deserves 10 (then again i didnt think i deserved 7 back when i was first ranked) but i dont think it's fair to other contenders to just throw atlus on there even though he could be there if he wanted to. but if he was on i wouldnt hate

has joe played fly recently?

 

[joeplicate]

I played fly at the last circuit and beat him 2-1

it's basically a toss-up between us, but you beat me the latest time, so there ya go

 

[Kouryuu]

Futile doesn't really play anymore nor care... at least not at the moment.

Romeo should be ranked above Fly mainly because of his notable wins over Falcomist at MJ, Lucky at the SCSA and Linguni at Genesis. I'd actually place him above Joe as well just because I think he deserves it. But then again he is pretty inactive and lost to Joe at SCSA so I don't know.

I'm mad inconsistent so I don't know if I should even be ranked lol.

I really think Connor and Joe are interchangeable.
Romeo should either be above or under the two. He's really good but a bit inactive.
Fly should be lower than all three.

Just what I think anyway.

 

[joeplicate]

mmm get a better opinion

I think that romeo (current romeo) could come back and tap me, connor, and dave if he wanted to, and beat or get close to beating oscar

I'm pretty sure romeo was sandbagging against me at scsa, but w/e
you also have to consider why you're putting him under kira as well

you'd be ranked if you came with it to every tournament like you did at the 1st connor biweekly you showed up to
you'd probably be after fly

I think me and dave are more interchangeable than me and connor, honestly

 

[MacD]

really, here's what you guys should do, you obviously have 9 you can think of, put zhu on

i doubt nor cal is going to claim him on their PR, he's been to more then enough so cal tournies in the period since april 2nd (i'm sure genesis counts) and he'll be going to one next weekend too, at the rate this thing gets updated (3 1/2 months since last one), he'll be back in irvine before the next one is up

but that's just my opinion

 

[pockyD]

keep joe in norcal and zhu in socal

they'll be back before the next period anyway

 

[DJMirror]

the day an arcadian gets ranked is the day I request to be taken off the PR. LOL

**** you destroy my reason to get better now T__T

 

[Noble-]

Can the Arcadian King be ranked?

 

[Lovage]

heeeeeeeeeeeelllllll nooooooooooo pat

if u all care about the rankings, i think genesis mattered a lot. kira, romeo, fly and me are the only ones who held it down son

where u at

 

[Kouryuu]

Romeo and Kira are the ones who really held it down. Especially Romeo.

But let's get real. Is an update ever gonna happen? Who's in charge of the panel at the moment? We really need to get organized. I'm glad Genesis motivated people to get better.

 

[ConnorTheKid]

btw, are we counting my last tournament?

I think it's a toss up between me and Fly but I don't really know cuz I'm a little kid.

My last tournament, Fly lost to Porc and Doraki who aren't ranked whereas I beat Doraki and only lost to Joe and Mango. But then Fly has beaten me the last 2 times we played. Who's higher?

I don't really mind being lower than Fly cuz I respect him but I'm just curious.

 

[Kira-]

yeah oscar didnt hold it down he only beat hax and azn lep (who beat tofu, armada's brother, and KFC, what a noob).

connor they would have to look at more than just the last tournament

 

[Kouryuu]

Didn't say he didn't.

 

[Rosedemon]

Get Kouryuu'd.

Edit: You're so sexy when you do that Mikey.

 

[Kira-]

Romeo and Kira are the ones who really held it down.

That means Oscar didn't really hold it down. He just kinda held it down. Don't pull that **** on me!

 

[MacD]

also, i know genesis was THE tourny of the summer/so far this year, but you've gotta take into account that it's just one tourny

i know i personally got ***** this tourny, getting beaten by iori and alan on sunday, i know myself along with others played horrible thier first match because we weren't ready (having to make multiple trips to the hotel) and alan had just had a lot of ditto practic

had i been ready to play i feel i could have beaten iori, not saying i would have, but at least i would have felt ready to play, idk about alan, but my head was not really into that match either, at least the way it's suppposed to be played

/my johns i guess, i don't mean them to come of that way but i know they will, sunday of genesis was just not my day to do well

basically my point is, you should take genesis into account, but don't make it the deciding factor for final rankings of people, everyone has their bad tournies, and for some it just ended up being genesis (silent wolf, jman, xelic and rey come to mind) you've had 3+ months worth of tournies to take into account, and this thing needs to be updated officially

EDIT: hell, i heard brandon didn't even make it out of pools, and i'm sure i could find others, like julian from nor cal (at least i rmeember him getting pissed during pools)

 

[pockyD]

johns factory

iori *****

 

[MacD]

lol, don't get me wrong, i know he's good, i just know i could have done better, i got impatient the first match though and took 40% at like 30 seconds, so when time ran out i lost, and i got impatient against his zelda/could manuever out of shield correctly at all

i guess lession learned from playing him is i need to be more patient, so in reality, it's good i lost because i learned something to improve my game

 

[Kouryuu]

The bigger the tourney, the more weight is put on performance. Not to mention, it was a three day tourney. You should have prepped yourself for it.

That means Oscar didn't really hold it down. He just kinda held it down. Don't pull that **** on me!

<3 Dave

 

[Kira-]

things i learned from genesis

-how to play teams much much better
-everyone camps hard
-gotta get frame perfect timing + spacing

my spacing is terrible

 

[Kouryuu]

What I learned from Genesis is...

Never let Joe (or anyone else) borrow my controller! Neither my L or R buttons function anymore! Leave it to a Fox main to **** a Peach players controller.

 

[MacD]

lol, i let zhu use it for RoM and joe use it for friendlies on sunday, my L and R still work... i think, well R does cause i can still shield, lol

 

[AzN_Lep]

what i learned from genesis. oos is not as good at fighting ICs as socal

 

[TheLifeRuiner]

What I learned from Genesis is...

Never let Joe (or anyone else) borrow my controller! Neither my L or R buttons function anymore! Leave it to a Fox main to **** a Peach players controller.

I can maaaaaaybe fix it for you

 

[stabbedbyanipple]

What I learned form Genesis:

No other region wastes their second jump by jumping into my lazer then proceed to get edge guarded by my Dsmash. Meaning I have to learn how to properly edgeguard. >_<

 

[ConnorTheKid]

what i learned from genesis. oos is not as good at fighting ICs as socal

nah Pat, you're just too good lol

 

[MacD]

i think one of the funniest moments is when i was wondering around and happened upon jr vs pat in pools

pat is wobbling him and they are having a pleasent conversation on the side

idk how many people could be smiling while being wobbled but pat seems to know the trick

 

[Rickety]

MacD is my hero! He's my em-cee to the cain! <3

Um, also, MacD made me. . . h-h-hom. . . happy! <3

 

[ConnorTheKid]

I wouldn't mind being wobbled by Pat.
