Finally got around to getting back to the game.

Joseph, your Balrog left me salty, but my Chun has your Bison swimming in sea! Bwahhaa!
(Except at the end of our last match. Fuck me :lol )

Nah, ggs. Sudden annoying lag spikes but what can you do. I got my rust off finally. =P

Isn't he the same, plus a good number of characters were nerfed a bit? He should be in S or A tier. Surprised more people don't win in tourneys with him.

yeah.. Rog IS good. It seems like all of the Rog army vanished shortly after super came out. either boredom or people found a new character that they felt suited them better. that was basically the case for me and my former mains

Been playing randoms in ranked lately for C to Shining C, and my PP is still going up :lol. Got Akuma last night, and kept failing at his ultra (I always hit lk before back). Flailing at it for 2 matches when I have the life lead, and I finally did it after like 15 tries and it connects :lol Mindgames, man.

Can we make call time at 4:45??

that we we can get started exactly at 5....

Judging from how the last one went, we won't start on time regardless.
It just comes with getting online and ready 8 or 16 households at the same time.

well, i think we should run the 4:45 call time, it gives everyone 15 min. to get online and get ready.....it should be a lot easier this time since there is only 8 people...

last time everyone was on time, with the exception of like 3 people...

The only issue is that we can't assume that all 8 will be here reading this update.
If we set to start at 5 without exception and we're missing one of them, it's going to be really unfair to that person with the change being made some 2 hours before the Tourney start.

Save this one for Tourney Round 3?

GGs everyone!

Team battle is a nice change of pace from endless and doing GAF vs. randoms was pretty fun. Though it was still fun when it became GAF vs. GAF. :lol

why don't more people use Balrog? was he nerfed from vanilla?

He wasn't nerfed, other characters got better and therefore he went from being elite tier with Ryu and Sagat to being good tier with...Ryu and Sagat (and many others).

Popularity largely comes from ease of victory. A lot of the Balrog players switched to Bison (U2) and Guile (anecdotal evidence).

Do you miss any of your old characters now that your focus has been on Makoto (and Ken)?

I still play Viper quite a bit. Cammy, not so much. But I haven't ever really put in a ton of time with Cammy anyway.

None of us saw it coming. Last time, everything played out much smoother, with double the player count. It boggles the mind.
Trying to get everyone together at a set time adds another layer of difficulty in running the Tourney. The upshot though, we do start and finish in one sitting.

hahahahahaha I know exactly what you mean! I could only muster enough time to finish single player, MP just doesnt cut it compared to ssf4 :D
 
Well good matches to those in that endless room with me earlier *yes I forgot the names already, my memory is special just gonna put it that way*. Also good games to DBJ and I think Greg last night I believe it was.
 
AZ Greg said:
GGs everyone!

Oh, and Sim > DBJ ;)

Also, that 5000pp/15000bp Bison player was garbage.
Bah. I blame the lag for making me drop my MOE~ combos when you were in the corner. >_>

And mashdatDP is actually an amazing Bipson (he's my mirror training buddy), but you just have to keep in mind that you are some sort of robot.
Now his Chun is garbage, but that's because he's in the works with her.

And holy crap. I just started messing around in training mode, and just came up with a new, godlike reset with Sakura. =O

I'm surprised the steam held up so well, I expected it to crap out after like 5 viewers :lol

Gotta say its rare to find a decent Sakura. You really threw me for a loop but I will adjust sooner or later, then your soul is mine :p

Well especially now that I am at my own house again on a less laggy lcd anyways lol, I almost never miss the bnb with Bison but I was missing it repeatedly that night. Oh well I failed to adjust correctly.

Player skill = PP/1000 x PP/main character BP rounded up to nearest 1.

That Bison Is a level 2, AZ Greg is level 3(~3000/3000), I'm level 1(~1000/1000) :-(


OOOH OOH, can we use this system to calculate the NeoGAF Dan rankings?

God's Beard - Dudley 1st Dan

:D

If your score is Sub 1, you get kyu rankings.

  • 0 = 10th Kyu
  • 0.1 = 9th Kyu
  • 0.2 = 8th Kyu
  • 0.3 = 7th Kyu
  • 0.4 = 6th Kyu
  • 0.5 = 5th Kyu
  • 0.6 = 4th Kyu
  • 0.7 = 3rd Kyu
  • 0.8 = 2nd Kyu
  • 0.9 = 1st Kyu
  • 1 = 1st Dan
  • 2 = 2nd Dan
  • 3 = 3rd Dan
  • 4 = 4th Dan
  • 5 = 5th Dan
  • 6 = 6th Dan
  • 7 = 7th Dan
  • 8 = 8th Dan
  • 9 = 9th Dan
  • 10 = 10th Dan
  • 11+ = Grandmaster

Plus, ranbat points can be used to calculate modifiers, etc!

for instance:

Threi - Lightning Deejay 2nd Dan

I wasn't really referring to his Bison since we only played 1 match, though he did throw out a lot of random ex PCs. I was just a little salty from the Chun matches. Because the lag, every time I went for df.HK -> throw, with the right spacing, he would get a free cr.lk combo. And then the rest of his damage was coming from throws that were obvious but I barely could tech any of em. :(

I kind of figured there was some salt. Before he fought you, I was about to tell him to pick Bison on you since you're no joke. But he picked Chun and I was baffled that he beat you. I knew something had to be up.
I throw out a lot of random EX PC. :(

Decent? You sir, are mistaken. As a matter of fact, Sasa and I fought over which one of us is the best Sakura in the world, and I won. :mad:

And my Sakura specializes in Bison match-up, since I kind of play him on the side.

lol didn't know that but I blame sasa for that, keeping me out of the loop like that :p Though come to think of it sasa and I haven't gone at it in a while.

As for the last bit well yeah I noticed lol. You knew exactly how to frustrate me with AA and anti-crossups.
