Fighting Games Weekly | September 17-23

West Coast should just send CJ over there as an insult. Don't send anyone else over to play any games at all; no friendlies, no mission mode, not even a game of checkers. CJ is the only one allowed to play.

East coast will just return the favor and send OMG Itz Andre or Unknown.

Moral of the story? Everyone LOSES!

Magus is the goddamn shit on the mic. My favorite commentator hands down. Dude knows his shit, is genuinely funny, is quick witted, and works really well with every other commentator I've seen him paired with. IMO all the whining is just meaningless noise from squares. I just wish Keystone II was still poppin so I could get my UNCENSORED TOO REAL FOR TV Magus fix.

I don't know he say some stupid shit from time to time (well everyone does but still he says it on air!)

Random shit...: I know this is extremely random but Magus' tie piss me off so much at After Shock. I haven't been that piss off seeing a tie since Jack Tretton’s Tie at E3 2011 press conference. (Yes I know random.. now leave me alone).

Sentinel comes in:

"sentinel can't win this, he has no chance in this match up" .... Sentinel wins.

Sentinel comes in again:

"sentinel can't win this, the match up is impossible" .... Sentinel wins.

Next tournament:

Sentinel comes in ....

Repeat for pretty much every character. It isn't something that can't be fixed, but for now man is it annoying.

I just don't see the big deal. Every commentator has their own idiosyncrasies and views about character strength. James Chen thinks Cammy is Hakan tier and loses every matchup in SF and he mentions it all the time. So what? What kind of weenie gets annoyed by this shit?

This weenie does. James Chen annoys me too. Actually lots of things do. I sometimes comment about them.
 
I agree Magus is awesome, and one thing is he actually listens to the other commentators and says relevant stuff. Its scary how many commentators still talk over each other and don't even try to have chemistry. But anyways Magus knows his shit even if he doesn't predict every match.
 
Who is UNIB and why is he hitting arcades?

Disagree. If Bayonetta had stayed dead they had a good chance of making something actually good.
UNiB is godlike , so fuckin importing if it gets a port to PS3. And there's not much information on Bayonetta 2 other than the staff. It's too early for skepticism imo. Control scheme is definitely worrisome. The director's had plenty of experience in Kamiya games though so , there's alot of potential.
Wait so Viper is overrated with a ton of potential to be the best?

Is that like being a fraud who backs it up and is respected?

lmfao this reminds during Aftershock with the interview on Infrit and Magus and Ultradavid made fun of how CJ said Infrit is a fraud but can back his words.
 
The Team St1ckbug monthly is happening this week.

They'll be running GGXXAC, BBCSEX, VF5FS, SG, P4A, and Vampire Savior has been added to the lineup as well.
Persona 4 Arena is gonna be a 2 vs 2 format this time.

In other news, while it's still a ways off, DaiAndOh (of TSB) will be holding Guilty Madness at Next Level on November 17.
It's a high stakes Guilty Gear XX Accent Core event, similar to Curleh Mustache.
Min'll be streaming it when it does happen.
Pretty stacked roster.
 
SFII' Rainbow Edition tournament:

This is so great... words cannot describe it...

Lol at blanka switching to guile to throw a sonic boom and then switching back to blanka mid match!

EDIT: BONUS STAGE!!!

EDIT 2: Guile is so OP in this version... block a single sonic boom anywhere, die a sonic boom chipping death.

EDIT 3: LMAO @guile counterpicking... with guile! no charge sonic boom wars!

EDIT 4: Wait, where's zangief yoga flame while doing lariat? is this a patchless version?
 
I cant get enough Magus1234 ... moar Magus1234 less Skisonic pls
 
This Saturday I'm doing the 2nd UCI SWISS Style tournament. Last month's was pretty good with Valle coming out to slap some kids in AE and Infrit & Dickwin trolling in UMVC3 finals. Stream should be up around 12pm PST Saturday on twitch.tv/offcast. I got some new stream gear too 8|
 
So I figured out that SF4 player Season Beatings was teasing and I think it's Valle and not a International player. Valle never attended a SB event, he is well known in SF4 and he was in the new trailer.
 
was anyone able to get a playlist from haunts, or are familiar with what he was playing on aftershock? some of those tracks were sick.

Some of the DnB tracks he played:

Prolix & MC Coppa - On Like That
Logistics - Jungle Music
Enei & MC DRS - Count to Ten
Mefjus - Distantia
 
I would be very excited to see an East Coast vs West Coast battle in the aftershock format.

I just wonder what they'd do, 5v5? Would it be on the west coast? What east coast guys could make it?

Who should be on the team vs who will most likely be on the team...

I just really wanna root for some east coast, I am pre-hype hype
 
No no. That's either papa Tecks or Goo from the future.

As for the magus debate, while I didn't watch him this weekend for the tournament at all, I think he's fucking brilliant. One of the better commentators the FGC has to offer.

How did TTT2 do for hype, entrants, and how did it feel as a spectator/stream monster? Fun to watch?
 
People who disagree with you are weenies and squares? Compelling argument, sir. I am convinced.
Brilliant deduction, genius.

While it is usually the case that those who disagree with me are weenies and squares, in this instance I find the complainers weenie-like and square not simply because they disagree with me, rather due to the content of their complaints and the tone of them.

Seriously, when I read the whiny hater posts, I hear Jaha's nerd voice saying them. It just fits like a glove.

I mean what, are we to believe Sentinel is *not* a great character? Boy, I really hope Magus got fired for that blunder.
 
Some people just don't like Magus on the mic. It's all good. People are entitled to their opinions, and they are not right or wrong with their tastes on subjective things like this.

I like Jeff Van Gundy on the mic. My buddy hates him. It's all good either way. I don't think less of him, and he doesn't of me. He likes Reggie Miller for god's sake!

Some for music tastes.

IDK, who cares. Get Ski on da mic, man!!!!
