Actually, just look into the whole soundtrack for that show. Most of it is amazing and should cover your musical needs nicely methinks.

This one worked pretty good. I will go with that. Just looped some parts of it to make it last:p Not a great fit probably, but I am trying to convey info in this vid, more than anything else, so I won't dwell any more on it! Thanks!
I am sure it will be great with whatever you choose, your content is the important part. Glad I could help.

People adapt. They learn how to block. Several times I have had my jump in, slash, f2 xx trait grab blocked by good players, which was kind of "unblockable" for the longest time. I therefor tried to find a solid jump in->high-low to go with that mix up:

j2,slash~12 (to cover the high) xx closes ground blast charge-slash~MB (to make 12->mb laser combo/be a tight blockstring)

The combo if this hits will be: j2, 4~12 xx laser-4~MB, b3, j3, f213 xx ender

Landing 21 MB laser b.3 is so satisfying but it's so hard :(

I actually got worse at IAKR. I wish there were shortcuts like in MK, lol

Yea it's 100% doable if you take a few steps forward, but the timing is very hard depending on the character you are doing to combo on. Most people don't get tricked by it though, since 213 isn't used often enough from zod players to be familiar with.

There is a shortcut for instant air zod balls? jump, d, db 1

It's the only way I can open people up so I abuse that whenever I can

Oh really? Damn I've been getting mad for nothing, thanks!

This is similar in 'epicness' as far as feel as the one posted by GentlePersuation. It has some pretty good builds/drops/impacts to sync up with video events.
Wait what????

What album from cell dweller is this from? I thought I had all his stuff

It's the third of the "Soundtrack for the voices in my head" volumes. Came out just this year. The whole thing is kind of in line with his "First person shooter" track. He is one of my favorite producers right now, epic stuff.
yea his previous album (name escaping right now) is my go to tourney music album

unshakeable
Black star
Lucky One

Oh yea its called something about Wish upon a black star

Apprentice
Wish upon a black star

Yeah that's one of his great albums.

My tourney music preferences haven't changed much over time, back in the day they were things like NINs Broken, today it's things like Celldwellers albums, and some hard dub like excision/figure.

Is there a tournament soundtrack thread around here? If not someone should post one, might be a fun topic for discussion.

Here's some matches from ranked game play. Even with 100/100 mbit/s connection online is far from perfect: Every time I jump in to ground rifle it was supposed to be an air rifle shot close to the ground. Anyway you guys can get a feel of how I am playing, as we all have a different take on Zod.

Good stuff Sim. Your zoning against that rage quitting batman towards the end was simply magnificent.

Things I liked from Sim:

Use of Zod Balls and Air control.
Willingness to go for Overhead bite trick
Ground Laser in zoning game(Great for mixups with trait later)

Things I don't like:
ONLY using Overhead Bite trick when up close.
Too much MB Zod balls, though that's my opinion

Things I'd like to see:
Use of not fully charged Ground Laser in zoning
Better mixups up close(The Trick isn't really a mixup, just a lesser know hard to blockable.)
More empty jumps
