Man I'm feeling myself today in Ranked(waiting for BV to quote this with Choco face). Went 22-4 in the 26 matches I played. Started bad at 1-2 and finished 21-2 losing only to a Cammy that I beat 3-1 overall and a extremely laggy Blanka that went down to the wire when I teleported out of his Ultra and waited too long to punish.

To continue on with what I was saying about Cammy the other day. Went 5-1 overall against 3 different Cammy's who were all around my skill level. She may have gotten worse but she's still as terrifying as she was before minus the unblockables off back throw. I felt completely helpless trying to anti-air her or play footsies. Anytime you get anywhere near her, their is a good chance she's going to jump and do EX strike if she has meter. Simply knowing this isn't good enough to stop it as we all know. I tried to reaction DP and got hit before it could come out. Other times I tried to walk in low forward and the other guy jumped at the right time to hit me before I recovered from my cr. MK.

I know I'm not saying anything new, just want to vent my frustrations a bit. But I manage to beat her by playing lame as fuck in neutral and when I scored a hard knockdown I would run my ghetto vortex on her which actually is pretty effective as long as I time my jumps to stuff her DP(which I did successfully a few times) which scared them into not going for it. Aside from that I spent most rounds kind of terrified that I would get hit by mid screen drills or EX strike and die in a few combos. Thank goodness for this shitty teleport Evil Ryu has. It got me out of trouble several times. I guess they don't expect me to use it lol.

You still dodging me? Just kidding haha.

I dread the cammy matchup so much. EX strike isn't too bad but I get so frustrated when I get hit by a mid screen drill and lose from there.

I really hope to see Mango vs. Armada again this weekend.

If it happens it'll be 5 years almost to the day when they first played each other

Pretty sure Nintendo employee can't participate in the Melee tournament. Just like any employee cannot participate in a contest/competition that involves their employer.

That's why Combofiend can't play Marvel no more in majors...

This varies by employer. MikeZ enters Skullgirls tournaments.

 

[SloaneRisette]

This varies by employer. MikeZ enters Skullgirls tournaments.

And I believe FilthieRich could enter Tekken tournaments

Nah, we just haven't caught each other on at the same time. I can't play as much as I want to. But I actually deleted that post because I thought I left Neogaf in the USF4 thread when it was really this one. I went and posted it in the other one though.

 

[SloaneRisette]

Just about to reach Vegas. If you're at the hotel and see some kid with a Rocket Raccoon BT shirt, a blue backpack and MadCatz fightstick bag and his dad, that's me.

Evo registration swag. Gonna go eat BBQ and temper this buzz then come back and drink some more. Hope everyone has a great EVO weekend

 

[IntelliHeath]

I miss Combo. Best Nova, best Spencer, best Hawkeye.

And She-Hulk too

Edited: I wish that Capcom didn't mess up She-Hulk's balance in UMVC3.

 

[Eternal Flame]

Woot! I'm ready. Off from work this whole weekend, so gonna monster/warrior it up. SF is the game I'm mostly looking forward too, but I'm ready for the other games.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

And She-Hulk too

Edited: I wish that Capcom didn't mess up She-Hulk's balance in UMVC3.

the only She-Hulk

 

[Dahbomb]

Even if Capcom hadn't messed with She Hulk's balance you wouldn't see her much in tournaments any way.

 

[IntelliHeath]

the only She-Hulk

You got me there. lol

Even if Capcom hadn't messed with She Hulk's balance you wouldn't see her much in tournaments any way.

Yeah, true. I could see Combo not giving up with her but I could be wrong.

 

[Dahbomb]

Combo still hasn't given up on She Hulk, he still plays her in casuals on the team She Hulk/Spencer/Strange. He just can't play the game any more in tournaments because of his job. There have been many casuals where he played with She Hulk (and then had to switch to Nova to win).
