This was a cool event. I kinda expected more ppl to show up though but it was worth the trip to sit down with two new (to me) mb players who actually knew wtf they were doing.
Roado Naito:You stepped that sexy-akiha up a lot since we last battled (nec7?). Pirate a copy of ps2 mbac so you can practice up for the next web2zone event. Also, after reviewing the round robin vids: you should try to go for the "elbow loop"(623B)
anytime you can. That damage is too fierce to pass up. There were times you just copped out and went for 2c>5c>iad or 2c>5b>5b :'(. And play on stick, dammit! Should the community ever get blessed with a cabinet or sbo qualifier I would hate to have to hear: "I didnt do so well cus I cant play on stick". Oh, and bring some cotton balls with you the next time to stop the bleeding
.
Quill: ...Len?
wtf you were getting mopped in casuals then the cat turned into a lion once the tourney started. stop sandbagging, man! lol
You knew all of your "stuff" with len and that made me very happy. Now EC has a len player!
After reviewing the matches, I think you could have lived longer if you chose to regen life a bit more. Good defense and aerial movement though.
Chibi: still getting frustrated over dumb shit. this will continue to hurt your game until you learn how to convert bitching into skill. I bitch....but its on the inside. Then it gets processed into pure
owningage (this is the only term i could use to describe this state of mind). Oh well, eventually you'll get it..........or not.
Zaelar: No more blitzkampf for 5hrs before concluding any mb tournaments ever again! In fact, no more blitzkampf, period. Making that transition really hurt my game and almost created an upset. GG's and lol at 22c>214c. I'll show you why that sucks at the next event
. Name's spelled S-a-i-y-d btw
.
Quill & LK: Please.....get a stick. And you two should definitely hold more sparring sessions together. Spooky and I got started the same way and we've both improved drastically since then. (And no homo for the ppl thinking "homo".)
Note to self/Kouma bloopers:After reviewing the footage, I'd have to say that Zar is still in the "noob stages" with kouma. Some notable mistakes were:
-214A>236C for a
round one finisher when 214A[4] could just deplete the last bit of life?! (lol...noob) (Zar vs Quill)
-2C>iabd>land>activate: meh, this is so-so but there are much more effective ways to sneak in a free activation:
2c>236b>236b(launches)>activate or
2c>6c>j.C>j.236b>land>activate. (Zar vs Zaelar)
-End the round w/ j.C>j.236B x2 instead of uhhhh....airthrow(?). (Zar vs LK)
-Ummm
activation w/ 90% health? *cough*. Watch your life bar please
.
GG's to y'all.
LK, try to set up another gathering for sometime in Aug.
