SaltyBet's Dream Cast Casino Thread 2 - Always bet on DBZ

Ronald's habit of not doing anything after his dodge/counter move(besides another dodge/counter) bit him in the ass right there.
Yeah, once he starts doing that against someone aggressive, he can get stuck.

Also Patchouli's super was perfectly sized to hit him immediately whenever he did it.

I saw Remilia "almost lose" to Ninja Megazord earlier, probably the match you're talking about. He just hits really goddamn hard. He could have actually won it if he hadn't knocked Remilia out of her first card, thus refilling her health.

Random information follows: Immaterial and Missing Power Remilia and Patchouli both operate on that game's story mode system, as opposed to normal rounds. They're generally incredibly easy to beat for the first round and then become impossible for 90% of characters after that.

However, I've noticed that sometimes they seem to get hit so hard at the end of the first round that they lose multiple of their rounds and can bug out a bit at the start of round two and lose that as well.

Also, if someone almost kills them but never makes the last hit, they can lose on time as they retain their health through rounds. However, this requires some significant dodging skills, because the other guy has to survive to the time out :p

I see, just the typical Remilia trolling hard. After watching a few videos of those games I'm tempted to buy them at some point, too bad they are a little bit expensive to justify such expense.

Damn. Thought my Mahou Shoujou girl would just spam soujirou to death.

Soujirou ALWAYS makes me lose money.



AND HOLY CRAP, Patchouli defeated Ronald 3:2 on a fantastic match! With upset included, too bad my bet wasn't processed.

Man, I hope someone uploads the video.

Ahh, wish I hadn't missed the betting for this. I know how to differentiate between good and bad Slayer :p

Bad one wears white/red for 2p colors, good one wears red/black for 2p colors. Reverse for 1p.

Insane Hiryu isn't very insane. For that matter, Chaos Hiryu isn't all that chaotic other than his absurdly high damage.

Best Strider is just Strider Hiryu who occasionally pops up.

Edit: Motochika vs Motonari exhibition tomorrow for best Sengoku Basara character.

Edit 2: Salty, please remove Spider Girl. I was eating and I just threw up all over myself.

Although this color palette isn't as offensive as the other. Still terrible.

That super he loves so much looks pretty insane, even if it does about as much damage as a normal attack.

If, by some miracle, he gets enough meter to use it, he has a sort of transformation super that makes him really good. But since he spams that one super I've only seen him do it once.

I swear, every time I leave the room today, a fight with a really bad fake character comes up.
Same exact thing keeps happening to me. :/

If I ever end up playing FF8 again, I'm renaming Squall to be Well. Well >>>>>>>> Squall.

Edit: God dammit, my bet didn't change from Juggs to Roll. :/

Speaking of fakes, I figured out how to identify the good Roll a while back :p

The worst Roll does a bunch of kicks in her intro animation, and the one that just fought has twitchy hair in her idle animation.

The third one (also good) presumably does neither?

Edit: Well, here's the third one. She wears black. Easy enough.

I come back to see Devil Daigo up 2-1 against Blaster. I actually say 'what the fuck' out loud.

And then he proceeds to lose. BBB stays failing.

Edit: Does Ojisama have some form of AI now? I mean, he's not great by any means, but he seems to be attacking more than I remember.

Several of those old clones got an AI upgrade, not sure how. So, careful with those bets!

Figured as much. I was actually going to bet on Ojisama in that Ojisama vs Red Ranger fight, but chickened out at the last second. Now I'm gonna consider betting on him when he's up against a shitty character. Before he was a 'never bet on' character since he sucked a lot.

Burst meter Johnny is seriously the single most legit Guilty Gear character free. Mother of God that match vs. Blade was so stylish.

I think Shin Scrub Sol is probably better in salty bets. Dat uppercut.

But Johnny is stylish. Sol has his jump loop, and then that's it.

No lies, the AI Johnny made me want to pick up Johnny as a third in Guilty Gear for real. Shin Umeshoryu Sol is pretty damn good though.

He was somewhat decent whenever I've seen him. Ojisama Chaos, on the other hand, is pure potato tier material.

Yukari vs Doruge.

MY BODY ISN'T READY

TOUHOU NO MATCH FOR STILL JPGS

I got burned really hard on a real Flash vs Ant Man action figure, and haven't bet against those kinds of characters ever since.

The giant monkey head that eats and spits out a yellow... thing, the bird cookie, the guy that starts as a still JPG but then becomes a sprite and spams permanent assits (including bulldozers), that flying black thing, the knife-headed lizard, the schoolgirl with yo-yos, ant man... they're all ridiculously powerful and quite hilarious. The only one I've seen lose was a very large thing called Daijin or something along those lines, and even then he'd always win whenever I bet against him.

We should have a match between some of them and various Mugen gods, as a way to determine just how broken they really are.

Zeroko will OHKO with anything, but she prefers jumping.

Edit: Neyufeulle vs CCI Shingo to One Winged Angel. The ultimate battle.

Edit2: Even though I bet on her, I'm glad Kira lost. Those odds were moronic.

I'm surprised it was heavily in her favor. To be fair I think her and Chaos are equal and it could've gone either way, but I didn't expect them to be *that* lopsided.

Not that I'm complaining, it turned my $65 into $8000, lol

I have to assume a lot of people were going off of nothing but stats, which are wrong because there's also the tiny Sonic Chaos.

It's going to be a tough decision to decide in which one bet.
Salty ran an exhibition of those two a while back, which is why I find the matchup kinda weird.
Alter Amiba won 5-2, iirc. It probably will go the same here.

Both Blackheart and Mephisto in this, huh? They're practically the same :p
Yeah, it's kinda weird. Would be better to replace one of them with a different character... *shrug*

Looking at that bracket and remembering last week's horrid streak, I don't think I'll be doing bet tallies this week again. :lol

Some of those characters are obscure enough that I can't even place bets. Meanwhile, holy shit @ Amiba vs GWM in first rounds...
 
Apparently I'm permanently banned from the chat despite not having been on Salty Bet for like a week and never breaking any rules. Huh.

edit: checked the forums, this has happened to other people as well

I don't know what Ryu, Ken, Carnage, Goku, and Vega mean. There's only two Carnages, but the others there's tons :p

I assume Nero is DMC, since Tsukihime Nero was in it weeks ago.

Edit: Presumably Vega is "Dictator", as I don't think there's actually a good "Claw" named Vega.

Oh man I think thats the REAL goku.

Oh shiettt!

We really need to do a real Goku listing. The realest Gokus I know are Super Goku (the tall sprite Goku that goes Super Saiyan before the match starts), Z2 Goku (animation out of the ass, kinda chunky looking in a fun way and has ZWAAAAANG appear when he finishes a round with a super) and then there's this stupidly real/well animated one that comes in on Nimbus and abuses some cinematic Kaioken combo.
