[ComboFest]

Mango completely ***** M2K

 

[iRTuan]

Holy cow Armada beat Mango. I am so disappointed right now.

 

[-Rei-]

today was just not the usa's day

 

[ComboFest]

Armada beat Mango. Japan beat USA. Sad day indeed.

 

[iRTuan]

And M2K takes the win in Brawls Singles GF!

 

[JDM]

What's brawl?

 

[AntoPark]

Genesis was mad fun/hype. I tried my best, didn't make it out of first round pools. I'm not too disappointed anymore even though I was pretty salty right after I lost(mostly because I made some choksie mistakes). I'm just going to try my best to get better since I know that samus is actually a pretty good character. I met a bunch of people and saw a bunch of amazing sets. I don't think I'm going to **** around with secondaries besides warming up and sheik, so I apologize for any future overly annoying/defensive matches.

 

[Fly_Amanita]

Hey guys. Since Strong Bad is going to be here for the next 10 or so days, it'd be cool if smash stuff near UCI happens a decent amount in the upcoming week. I'm down to play more or less whenever.

 

[AntoPark]

Also, I want to mm everyone(except paul) in 949.
Get at meeeeeeee.

 

[stabbedbyanipple]

$1000 MM anto

Connor and I are stuck at the airport for 4 hours cuz we missed our original flight lknsvsdfnbjkdfnvdkjfbnsdf

 

[JDM]

I'll MM you Sheik vs Samus if you MM me in SF4.

 

[chiZZLeSD]

dont do it anto lol

 

[AntoPark]

Hey, anyone can smash with me at my house as long as you give me like an hourish warning tomorrow and most of the week. Just facebook/pm me for my number/address.

JDM: :[

 

[-Rei-]

i can host whenever

i also want to get ready for west toast

 

[Strong Badam]

u ready to uhh i guess... **** me in smash 949!?

 

[JDM]

I'll host a smashfest at my place on Friday.

Anto: Get Good.

 

[iRTuan]

I'll MM you Sheik vs Samus if you MM me in SF4.

I'll MM you in SF4. ;D

I'm down to play whenever as well. I'll just assume Matt will call me as usual unless a time/place is finalized here.

 

[DJMirror]

Hey Anthony and Ryan

Michael was playing, I only play like a few matches.

 

[Signia]

I was so salty in the one match I played against michael (I guess)

SSFIV is really frustrating. Mainly because you will probably get hurt bad if you miss a link. Since they''l be mashing DP since there's reason not to. **** like that never happens in 3D fighters... you drop your juggle, it's ok, they're knocked down.

Other stuff that's difficult is no biggie, I just gotta get some experience. Makoto is really hard. Her combos aren't that difficult, but the rest of her is. Instant aerial axe kick feels like a necessity and half the time I'll do an unsafe rising jump kick. I can't hit confirm for **** either... I feel like I have to guess whether my poke will hit, and if I guess wrong they just blocked an unsafe move. Also it seems like every normal I throw out should either be canceled into the dash punch or the dash punch cancel, which is really taxing.
..
I've never raged so much about an online game either. I get punished sooo hard for my own technical errors... and I still tear up whenever I think about my loss to some Juri masher. IF I CANT BEAT THAT WHO CAN I BEAT D:

 

[chiZZLeSD]

^ smash is your first game too right? i've had similar problems coming up. or the absolute hardest thing i had to adjust to is the "approach" .. since i was so used to falcon's cracked out *** running around twice as fast as everyone else. buuuuuut i realized you dont have to go straight into a whole block string when you get in. if your execution in long links isnt all that then you can go for easier punishes and work your way up.

like i play oni and all i really try to do when i have the opportunity to punish is that 2-hit target combo into tatsu or dp. yeah its not super long or flashy but it works for me for now til i can pull some crazy wildcat ****

if youre just coming up then i would suggest working your way up too. go with whats easy for now until your execution is hella good. then go nuts. and im not amazing at all... im C ranked LOL. anthony knows me as "freeSD"


.. ps: add me on psn. "chizzlesd"

 

[DJMirror]

TBH one of those matches was me when I played against you Ryan, I'm sure you can tell who was who by looking at the tech skills.

 

[Thundercloud]

Freaking this. I can't play fighting games to save my life (including melee).

 

[OkamiBW]

I need to learn the Peach matchup. I had 3 peaches in my pool (Light, DarkAtma, and H3***). I did lose to trahh, but I actually had more game wins than he did. :/ At any rate, I choked, but meh, my tech skill was fairly on point in friendlies. I can't wait for the next tournament, be it local or regional.

 

[ComboFest]

Well, Oni is banned Charles.

 

[Fly_Amanita]

Is anybody down to play tonight?

Also, Strong Bad would like to go to the beach eventually, so we should arrange a seaside get-together.

 

[iRTuan]

I'm pretty much free after 5 o clock.

 

[Signia]

.. ps: add me on psn. "chizzlesd"

will do. btw SCIV was my first FG but that's a 3D fighter so the experience doesn't count for much

 

[-Rei-]

i can host but i'm going to take a nap

call me if you guys decide to come here lol

 

[stabbedbyanipple]

I probably want to come

 

[-Rei-]
