Our set was amazing.I also had a REALLY close set with D-Torr in pools. He took a game off me and everything. Too good. He was 3-stocking Ikon too before he got gimped.
But I lose to King DDD which is like a cardinal sin for an IC main O_OI think DeLux should be top 5 ICs also. I don't think anyone knows ICs more intimately than he does, and he's also really good (made it to APEX bracket).
if seagull was wolf losing to ICs is nothing special. if seagull used his mk props to luxHe actually beat Seagull Man in losers
Naw son, im still coming back and putting the world in my hands.Like, if the world was going to explode and to stop it we had to beat this random snake, I would pick Gnes over anyone to defend the world, and I'm pretty sure most others would back me up on it.
It blows my mind people can have this scrub mentality and cry over losing to simple tactics like chain grabbing.I agree with u both...but like Kryst said, I don't respect them as a player for doing it and definitely don't think they are good. I'm not trying to get standing inf. banned or anything.
I'm not salty. I know lucas is not a singles viable character for it. I enter singles just for fun and to see what I will get. I focus on doubles. I am a doubles player.
The only thing that pisses me off sometimes is when people like NOid and PLayer-1 who say results is everything say a player that does an easy standing infinite against me and wins, is better than me. That just blows my mind how someone can think that lol. But eh everyone has their own opinion.
*likes post* don't forget the awesome feeling you feel after you beat someone that was using cgs.It blows my mind people can have this scrub mentality and cry over losing to simple tactics like chain grabbing.
The decision to main Lucas was your choice. To put down DK/Marth/Snake/insert CG character mains for their ability to get past you in bracket because of a standing infinite is insulting and rude. Man up. Saying "a player that does an easy standing infinite against me and wins, isn't better than me" makes you look like a scrub.
To belittle their victory against you is to belittle their skill and mentality. They are doing whatever it takes to succeed, whereas you exhibit hubris in your character. Sounds more like a personal problem, which shouldn't affect how those players are to be gauged in skill.
Again, I think player skill does affect results, but results reflect everything. Your seeding or placement in bracket doesn't matter in the long run as your performance will eventually normalize over several tournaments.
If it comes to a point where you are consistently running into a CG character that is directly inhibiting your performance, that's a good indication that it's time to either learn to become better than the CG tactic or pick up another character. Not cry and complain about infinites.
How you choose to analyze those results, from local to national, is another thing.
And if I'm not mistaken, no Lucas got into bracket but all of you got into r2 pools, correct? I haven't seen you outplace PF in singles once in your career, Mekos.
She gets nervous hardcore, she needs someone to keep her calm, not so much BIG tourney experienceIf fyre is a top 5 pit main, then there must not be good pit mains out there....I think I double 2 stocked her pit in pools.....i dont remember much but she didnt really seem that hard at all....maybe she was nervous..idk
LMAO NO I DIDNTmikeray you almost lost to her game 2. i have the video on my lap top cam. unfortunately i can't upload it because the file is weird. game 1 she suicided as well below 30%. nerves brah
So you're Admiral Pit?me? im just a lowly pit main brah. nothing more nothing less
Lmao, bro, this is probably one of your most ******** post I've seen.The only thing that pisses me off sometimes is when people like NOid and PLayer-1 who say results is everything say a player that does an easy standing infinite against me and wins, is better than me. That just blows my mind how someone can think that lol. But eh everyone has their own opinion.
100% no. im not even close to being admiral pit. i just troll people. he's....... on a different levelSo you're Admiral Pit?
I was specifically looking at the disrespect vs lack of respect thing. Whether Mekos thinks he's better than someone or not is his own business. But even then I guess I'd disagree, especially when you say "their proficiency"... What proficiency? You either grab again or you don't. That's how simple those grab infinites specific to ness and lucas ARE. I will never understand someone who thinks that that specific part of knowing the matchup means they are "better" in skill.Until it gets to the point that it affects how he views that player's skill level.
And from there, how he tries to convince others of his opinion.
It's unfair to belittle the players who win due to these tactics simply because he can't handle them.
This wasn't a matter of respect. It's a judgment of their skill level. He's trying to say these players aren't better than him skill wise, when quite frankly, with the way the ruleset is right now and their proficiency in chain grabs, they are.
being able to CP an opponent's character correctly is a skill.@Player-1 - To me Outplaying = more skill = better than your opponent
Yes, choosing a character is part of playing the game but 1. Some people chose their characters way before these infinite shenanigans were discovered and 2. Some of these characters have actually a lot of potential if it weren't for the GR's and infinites. If, for instance, a new infinite was discovered tomorrow with X character and someone who has never used X character uses it and infinites me for the win I wouldn't consider that as them outplaying me.Now going off what you probably meant to say, that is it blows your mind that someone can think someone who standing infinited you the whole game and won outplayed you. That's NOT AN OPINION IT'S A FACT. Choosing a character is part of playing the game, by choosing a bad character then you're choosing a bad option.
Nairo got destroyed by Nietono worst than me on their 2nd encounter. Placing doesn't = consistancy. But at this point idc. I just play and do my thang.Honestly, as of right now, I think Nairo is the best or second best MK in the country. M2K hasn't been putting in a lot of practice into the game and he isn't anywhere close to as quick and precise as he has been in the past. The same applies to Ally- he's a brilliant player, but his style is kind of sloppy. Anti is incredible. Tyrant recently started working and is playing a lot less- although I've felt Nairo should have been above him for awhile.
Given recent decreases in M2K and Ally's skill levels (no offence to either or them- they're both amazing players and were they to put any effort back into their game again aI have no doubt they'd reclaim their former positions), I'd honestly put the list with Nairo, Anti, and M2K as tied for first. Since you don't want ties though, I put the list at Anti, Nairo, M2K, Ally, Tyrant.
Yes, it's kind of radical. Yes, it seems ridiculous to see M2K at anything but first, but both him and Ally aren't putting in the necessary work. However, I honestly feel as if it's the case. Nairo now looks like M2K in the past- he's quick, aggressive, perfect spacing, a solid defense game when needed, and almost most importantly, has a near untouchable follow-up game.
I recognize that very few- if any- people will agree with this, but, oh well.
