Wow. This video is epic.

DAVID HEAT! I remember seeing that when I play him back in SJ... ahh... memories.

Magz: "IT'S ONLY ONE FREAKING MATCH STOP YELLING SO MUCH" XDDDDD

Gah. Why must WT always be hosted so far.

Maybe I should get on working on that Melty Tourney: DAVIS.

Christ, watching that Hisui mirror match makes me wonder what the hell I was on to have lost to Numakie. Next time I better have my head screwed on straight. I was really hoping there was going to be a huge improvement given his placing, but that's clearly not the case. There's still like little to no freaking method to his gameplay at all, guy is still doing j.BB at like the worst spots, ugh. Like at 13:05? What were you thinking guy?

And honestly, in my opinion, Tsubasa is the better Hisui amongst the two. There's an actual semblance of a gameplan going on when he plays. Regardless of him having lost, I don't get that nagging feeling of a chicken running around with its head cut off when I watch him play.

:\

Arlieth, stop freaking winning already.

H-F you got hella better too, damn guy.

By the way Chibi, there is the possibility of Numakie having, you know, a strategy too complex for you to comprehend.  :psyduck:
<bellreisa> arly *has* given up 3s
<bellreisa> retired it anyways
<linalys> no he hasn't
<linalys> it lives on in crouch shield

Just doing stuff is a great strategy against people who put figuring out your game over winning.

um, isn't figuring out your opponent's game how you WIN against someone else in the first place?

i mean with that logic you might as well just be smashing your face into the buttons while replacing the the actual stick with one of those little cacti with sunglasses that dance everytime someone nearby makes a sound.

Good, because magikarp helped me get better way back when by constantly pointing things out in past vids / replays over the years.

You guys think I'm being an asshole just to be an asshole, but like watching Numakie play makes my head hurt.

Yeah, that too. Too late in the game to be dropping shit now.

We're just saying :)

While Numakie's overall strategy may be lacking, his ability to capture and maintain momentum is good- you actually feel pressured by it. That pressure is GREAT at up to mid-level play, and let's face it, we're not Japan yet.  Also, it's not like any of your negative comments are going to influence his gameplay- what sparks an evolution of gameplay is necessity, and until he wins a tournament, I think he knows what he needs to work on. I don't recall Hisui having the personality of a nagging housewife.  :toot:

He never creates the momentum to begin with. There's no bento set ups, there's no tech punish set ups, no CH set ups, no mix ups, nothing. You could jump straight up or backdash every attempt at momentum the guy's thrown at you in these vids.

And I wouldn't even say he's mid level, because he doesn't even have her BnB down yet, or perhaps he forgot it, or he doesn't feel like doing it sometimes, or he does it at odd points when he could have gone with something far better. I mean that's BEGINNER shit, especially in MB, you can't get anywhere without your character's BnB.

If he wins a tournament your entire scene out there needs to wake the fuck up. Real talk.

No matter how much I hate on how you play, I don't actually hate you.

But lord allmighty, if you're goint to play, at least try and play it RIGHT, just a little?

A tiny bit?

Or not, whatever, you obviously don't take the game that seriously enough to begin with so I shouldn't even bother.

Actually.. if i think about it... my Hisui is kinda borrowed from Satsuki.  That could explain why I play as I do.

I understand some of my flaws. I luv my tables and random jBB's and i need to set up more bento's/chairs in the field.  I also need to work on some of my ground pressure game. 

and yeah... ugh.. wasting my time again.. need to work @.@

Numakie plays MB serious enough to win. Chibi plays MB serious enough to...well, whatever it is, it doesn't involve beating other Hisui's or winning money matches at EVO. I guess Chibi plays MB serious enough to complain and hell, we all can do that! HI FIVE MC!  :blah: :blah:

Great games from the WC peeps. USE SATSUKI MAGZ! LIKE I ALWAYS FUCKING TELL YOU TO! Arlieth is beastly as usual and Lina really should use random next tourney.

As long as I get to use Nyanyaya against Arly (if the matchup comes up, I like this matchup it's fun!) and I get to rerandom away from Mecha and Nekos I'll do it! 

Edit: Oh yeah Numakie did chairs and bentos vs me now that I rewatch the vid.  It was totally a good call, Shion got pwned by them.  See 22:22.

Hehe. You got me real good the first time you sent me to losers. Gotta keep in mind that Sion's kick beats table.  :psyduck:  That shiz is no fair. lol.

Great matches btw. We both got each other good.
