Petition for 3/5 for injustice

[Zyphox]

no majors for injustice, but ive been to plenty of locals and we had a tournament with players like playing to win, forever king, m2dave, master d, etc... i cant really comment on tourney times from that because it was super small and all matches were being played on stream, plus i had to leave early. But I have been to 3 majors for MK and many regionals. I have also run a single tournament so I'm not 100% clueless about it... only like 90%... but i'm not trying to say i'm opposed to 3/5. Everyone wants it to be 3/5 if it reasonably can be. TOs are just not sure if the game can be reasonably played 3/5 yet.

The problem with this discussion isn't that you want 3/5... it's how you are going about it. You shouldn't be arguing we need 3/5 because it's better for the players, you should be instead working with TOs and trying to figure out how we can make 3/5 happen logistically. imo

it doesn't matter how much players demand it if TOs aren't able to provide it lol

thats why i made this "petition" to see if the players want it and show TO's that we do and that its possible.

 

[Jeffreys]

Agree with 3/5 next time.

whatever, nerf the fuking braindead Superman!!!

Just his f23.

 

[DanableLector]

No, because its true.

I laugh at people still trying to backdash interactables.

If you seriously believe that "nrs players are slow learners" you are a fool. P.S. Zoidberg is the Meg of the Futurama universe. Have a nice day, make good choices. Hold dat.

Just his f23.

his laser is so retard!!! even a guy like DJT, who beat RE0's Kabal struggled to fight.
Srsly, Chris G's GA vs DJT's GL matches made me rethink about the game's footsie, spacing, zoning,... (i thought Injustice's footsie is ass), those matches were so awesome, it made me love the game so much, but too bad Superetard ruined it. That char also destroyed the hype.

 

[DanableLector]

Nice avatar bro. okc thunder for the win

I see you've got good taste in both games and pro hoops. You live in or near Oklahoma? Or just a fan of the most exciting team in the league?

I mean its not that bad if you can get in on him without getting combo'd and chipped to shit. If his f23 was nerfed then he would be decent in hand to hand combat and great at zoning rather then amazing at both.

fine, sorry :-( 3/5 after pools at a minimum. The event I attended really would have benefitted from that format. Really a great idea from Zyphox

Wait what happened.

Oh right that. Forgot about it. DanableLector we are cool, really and truly no FG community learns their game fully until after the first year.

I disagree with 3/5 RIGHT NOW because like Frothy said, it could be too long for TOs to accomodate.

then when will they, if ever have the opportunity to try a 3/5 tournament? most tourney's are for the entire weekend, so why not have to different halves of pools for injustice to accommodate for a 3/5 tournament? don't tell me it can't be done. why not try you know?

Because if you try and you fail you have a lot of players that wasted their money.

If you want to experiment with tourney rules it is always best to do it at locals first, as those are not nearly as big of a deal.

am sorry, but i don't see the risk, i was at ect5 where we had soooooooooooooooooo much downtime that could have been used in a 3/5 tournament, but instead it was casuals city. both people dis agreeing hasn't been to a US major this year, if you were at ect5 you would be agreeing with me. (btw i know your not from US, am just saying)

1. I am from Plano, Texas. We have not seceded yet thank god

2. I have been to a major for MK9 when the same argument was made for a 3/5. The only time there was downtime was toward the end when they had to wait for stream matches.

3. I remember ECT5 having a lot more downtime than usual because it was running ahead. Most tournaments do not run ahead like that, more often they run behind. 3/5 is a dangerous game, because if you have any sort of delay it can be a disaster.

oh sorry i was mistaken to were you are from . Mk9 matches last longer than injustice matches however. also whats wrong with having sunday pools for injustice? i know some majors do that for SSF4. look at evo, am sure they would have had not trouble doing 3/5 for injustice, and from what i saw at CEO it was the same thing, and you know keitz had that DQ just waiting at UFGT, just that injustice rand on 4 stations, if they had 8 maybe 12 stations am sure they could have pulled it off. but again its just two different opinions and am always open to take risks that may benefit the the community.

I am just saying why not try it at a local first before trying it at a Major? Better safe than sorry.

so you assume that no's game is "tight" and that everyone whines about 2/3? were not talking about scorpion, and i am definitely not complaining, am trying to make our scene grow, more players come to tournaments when there chances of winning are greater, that means that 3/5 gives the ability to comeback, and to get more tournament at the same time, i don't see how this is bad, especially when games in injustice go fast, and will continue to go fast as people "level up"

When people are struggling to even deal with Batman crossing you up with less than 3 bats, people still aren't punishing Supes dive punch, Doomsday is still considered a gimmick, yeah, people need to tighten up their game. After that point, 3/5 won't do shit other than make tournaments run longer.

i don't see the tournament running longer a problem at all, it makes it more fun if anything. you can say the same thing to other fighting games so your point is moot tbh, this game is new, you act like this games a year old, its gonna turn 3 months tomorrow...... so why not make a switch to 3/5? regardless on how scrubby we are right now, it will only level us up more IMO.

 

[G4S Claude VonStroke]

First to none please.

 

[RunwayMafia]

Absolutely. All games should be 3/5...it takes me a hot minute to figure out your BS.

How will 3/5 level us up more anyway? Less games to lose = more reason to play solid. This 3/5 for tournament consistency just makes people play lazy as fuck. 2/3 forces you to play solid more constantly, as well as adapt faster.

3/5 is only really better than 2/3 if you use MLG rules.

 

[ColdBoreMK23]

Bring back actual rounds so people have a chance to run it back in a game.

 

[Killphil]

The negativity in this thread is making me want to derail it. Fuck the discussion on 3/5, lets just talk about how the entire community is special olympic retardo and can't play a fucking video game. Call me when you guys making these comments actually go to a fucking tournament. #holdthat

continuation rules? and the argument can be said for both sides. more tourney exp when you play matches at 3/5 no matter how you look at it, even if its a few games under the spot light it helps. also the opportunity to download your opponent, look at what j wong did to chris g, now imagine if it were 2/3? i don't see the problem with a 3/5 NRS game that doesn't have rounds. tekken is 3/5 and its 3/5 rounds so whats the big freakin deal here really.

Tekken is 2/3, like everything else.

When one format forces you to play better from the get go and adapt faster, I don't see how the other format is better for the community overall. You still have a huge room to play lazy as shit at the start, rather than going in and actually playing while adjusting on the fly. Injustice's health system forces you to play solid from the start as it is. With this in mind, you will want to build up your ability to consistently, and learn as much about the game as you can before you play in tournaments.
