Fighting Games Weekly | July 14-20 | Bracket Resets Full of Tears (of Joy?)

Anyone who is even remotely interested in playing UNIEL should go watch the video that's been linked about six times, it's super useful. I was thinking about doing a system tutorial for the game once I got my copy, but that seems a little redundant now (or not -- an abridged version would still be useful, I can't imagine that most people are going to watch the full hour).


He did give me a death glare (or eight) when I was asking about some UNIEL stuff late on Sunday, but at that point I can't blame him. :p I do want to thank Magna_Mixalis for giving us a bunch of stuff to give away with the AH3:LM side tournament (even if nothing was like the borderline illegal t-shirt Examu sent us... yikes).

It wouldn't be an AH3 tournament if you weren't worried about the law.

A good video on some of some of the system mechanics and basics of Under Night In-Birth, which is releasing in 10 days. I haven't watched the entire thing yet, but it seems really helpful for people who are interested in the game but aren't sure how the mechanics differentiate UNIEL from other fighting games. There's been plenty I learned even in the first 5-10 minutes since there aren't a lot of resources explaining the system mechanics of the game.

Edit: Finished watching it. What an awesome video! Thanks so very much to Sourenga! It's a great resource for introducing the game to people.

Very informative video. Wish the image quality was better though lol. I didn't even realize it was coming out so soon.
 
Incredibly easy. Bit pricey though unless you know somebody who's in Japan getting them for you.

This reminds me that I saw someone post an offer to get PSN cards for people on Twitter.

Circuitous Xrd ‏@Circuitous
Future UNIEL players: I have a contact in Japan who buys JP PSN cards for people. Only charges 10%. If you're interested let me know.

I'm just getting it from Play-Asia since I'm lazy, but there's that offer. People in this thread have offered to get PSN cards when BBCP was coming out, so maybe you might be able to get it from them too.

I need to buy Kokonoe eventually... :<
 
For the record, Circ is a good friend of mine and his buddy has gotten cards for us in the past, so I can say he is legit.
 
rhapsody, what you think of SAO II as of yet?

EVO kept me from watching the latest episode. I've read the books though, but I'll watch the latest one maybe tonight.

Edit: I'm glad I have a friend in JP to get me PSN cards. No mark ups for me. But he has a budget though so I can't ask him for a lot.

Thank you for all the support. This was my last EVO. I did it for Remix more than anyone else. He told me I'd make top 8 at EVO this year.

But it's definitely time to move on, so all the haters, all of r/kappa can rest easy. Marn is gone from all FGC events ^_^

I was speeding towards the front stage, people like to fucking sit in the side ilses that are there to move about, normally people got out of my way, eventually one dude just starting shouting "CLEAR THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY" when I had to go through. Though one dude was fucking oblivious as fuck to everything. Guy shouted like 5 times, he wasn't even that far away. Eventually he came up said YO JUST GO, I ended up running over the dudes hand. Then I heard the guy say after I was riding off "AND THAT'S WHY I SAID TO GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY WHITE BOY"

lololol

are you in like a wheelchair or something?
they should have made accommodations for you.
 
I can get you guys jp PSN cards if you'd like. Just ask for equivalent to be paypal'd to me in US $. Hit me up with a PM if you want. I'm about to go to work so may not be able to answer right away.

Lolol


Were you wearing a pink shirt on day one? I think i saw you.
 
The way Triforce holds on to these inconsequential accolades really reminds me of the School Spirit skits on The College Dropouts.

"Cause when I die buddy
You know what's gonna keep me warm?
That's right, those degrees"

Also RIP Marn my favorite player even when everybody was hating :(
 
Got all of my recorded games uploaded. The last two games I played and the last half of my winner's final's match unfortunately weren't properly recorded due to a lack of space on my girlfriend's phone.

First round of my pool. Me against a decapre player named Ian Jobe
Second round of my pool. me against a ryu player named Sd Atax1s
Winner's semi-finals of my pool. Me against a blanka player named Rickdawg
Winner's finals of my pool. Me against a blanka player named Tuboware. Unfortunately only the first game was recorded, cut off just as I was closing out the first game.

I won't post these again so I don't pester anyone, but I'm just happy to have some of my success at getting out of pools documented. Looking back, I played really sloppy at times. Dem tournament nerves :(
