The Return of 'Kombat Tomb Podcast'

Its about time you guys came back even if its just to say hi:)

Questions for each of you:

#1. Say you go to MLG Dallas and go 0-2 because of the invincibility glitch after spending $400-$500 on the trip. What would your reaction be and what could we expect to see you say. do, etc.

#2. If the invincibility glitch were allowed and all matches contained it at MLG how would this effect the sales of Injustice/mk10. Sure we have 60-100 dedicated tourney players but 4.7 million people watch MLG events and it could blow up in a larger scale. In continuation do you feel players like reo help the scene or destroy the scene?

#3. What have been your favorite mk podcasts /shows that came after KTP shut it down? Any that you find completely dumb or award winning?
Quick question, why argue so passionate about just this glitch and not everything else in the game? I think this glitch is retarded, but I also think the same about reflect gltiches, 100% combos/resets, and block infinities. And all these are accepted with some kind of twisted logic behind it by almost everyone in the community.

All game breaking glitches are banned. This rule has been in the FGC for a long time, and before MK9 came out. We already knew to follow suit.

100% combos/resets,
You cant go to a tournament and tell someone to stop a combo at a certain number of chains, specially when there are countless combos that lead into a reset. You can even uppercut after a reset, and by your standards, its a DQ worthy offense. And if it really wasn't that hard to ban, or even obvious to any TO, like a clear glitch in the game, you are telling me that all TO's for every tourament that is held have to be held responsible to watch over each variation of said reset, with multiple characters.

This is the reason. I've explained this to you many times before, so I don't know whats so hard to get.

and block infinities.
I don't think there are anymore block infinites in the game. I'm sure these were patched out for a reason, and quite honestly, I don't think the game would of survived a month if there was multiple characters in the game with them.

Quan is a different story. He needs to use meter for his dumb shit. I don't personally like the idea of a character that takes your life for you doing the right thing... block... But thats another story.

And all these are accepted with some kind of twisted logic behind it by almost everyone in the community.
There is no twisted logic here, you just cant ban certain aspects of the game.

The rule, "All game breaking glitches are banned," has its meaning for a reason. When a glitch, such as the grab invincibility glitch comes out, it goes beyond the boundary of playability. If this glitch is activated by accidentally pressing back once(Example) then this game would die in a heartbeat.

Other than what I said above. Injustice will come out next year, and as far as this game goes, just play it for what it is, if you love the game. You cant fix the issues it has, just be patient and wait for the next one.

Well of course you're gonna defend resets! ;_;



CSZ has the invincibility glitch so he goes like 9-1 against everyone now

What about setups that are technically escapable if done at specific frame counts? Does this mean we must record all matches at 60fps and review them to count when exactly certain moves were done, and whether or not they were unblockable/inescapable to determine if the reset was legal or not?

What if I'm doing reps of Smoke's reset and somebody decides to let go of block when I throw my EX bomb? Does that mean that repetition doesn't count towards the 100% combo rule because the opponent let themselves get hit by it? Where do you draw the line? There is a distinct difference in animation when the reset is inescapable and when the opponent didn't block it... however having to react to that is ridiculous.

It's not that we don't think resets are broken, it's just that they are idiotic to enforce by any set of rules.

Lol no I'm just messing around with Krayzie.

I'm OK with resets and shenanigans because CSZ has them and CSZ without shenanigans is...well no fun.

Serious questions:
-Top 8 predictions (obvious question, i know)
-@K7, how well do you expect to do at MLG?
-@Slips, are you going to MLG Dallas? If so, Do you still plan on using Scorpion
-@16bit, honest opinion pls, Do you think Injustice will be a better game than MK9? If not, Why?
-Will TT2 Have a good tourny scene, and is it worth learning even if i have never played Tekken seriously before
-Best Character in MK9? Does everyone still unanimously agree that kabal is better than Sonya, Kenshi, Lao and Freddy
-Honest opinion on Kitana by all of you guys, Is she really tournament viable at this point? Do you think She will ever win another major event?

As a longtime Tekken veteran, I'll give you some early advice - if you're not planning to invest an insane amount of time into the game, don't bother. There is so much to learn in Tekken, aside from the fact that there are like 60 characters, each with 100+ moves to memorize. Hell, I could spend a week just teaching you how to properly get up off the ground after a knockdown.

Say you are outside in a snowstorm wearing a snowsuit. Your friend calls you up and asks you to come over. Your friend happens to be watching porn when you arrive. Would take off your pants and jacket? Or is that kind of rude?

What do you guys think of the current MK Live Shows/Podcasts? Are you happy there has been life after KTP?

Will you guys continue this after injustice is released?

see you at the top.
What are you guy's thoughts on the recent MLG Online Tournament Controversy? Who is more to blame? Do you think the outcry is justified?
