Question GL Tourney Players??

Fred Marvel

It's actually Freddy Marvel
I play the best Superman players in the world and I have beaten them multiple times with many characters, but I can tell you that matchup is NOT a 5-5.

Sure you can somewhat equal him in the footsie game, but Superman can zone way more safely with more reward. Also he has WAAAAAAAAAAAAY better mobility.

Superman also benefits WAY more from interactables.
yup and somehow people havent realized important mobility is yet :confused:

did it ever occur to you that maybe they have a book of wonder chef and they read the only chapter in it before the match?

I have beaten them in tournament with multiple characters, including Black Adam, Aquaman, Zod, Raven, MMH, Sinestro, and even Shazam, but I've used GL more than almost any of those characters.

I guarantee it is a bad matchup. Out of curiosity what Superman players do you practice against?

I've played against Kyle Rayner both off and online. I've played Dab as well and quite a few other randoms. But as of late offline mostly just Kyle. Sure he's not a theo but then again I don't have access to your whole scene. Looking forward to djt playing your best supermen in Cali. Hopefully he will represent what me and him both now agree on.

I seem to recall the last time that DJT came to WNF he lost to a Superman.

I'll be going to Final Round with my alt GL. @GGA Wafflez taught me everything I know about full screen turbine into B1 mixups.

Things change and nothing stays the same forever.
Basically you're saying that despite what we've seen in tournaments and my tons of personal experience against the top superman players offline, you are right because you played some random Superman online?

Okay that makes sense.

Just because you play top Superman players doesn't mean much. Maybe with your character crisis you're not as good with GL as players who only play him.
I have played him consistently since Evo (where I got 17th as the 2nd highest placing GL next to DJT where I coincidentally lost to... Superman...)

I can tell you that GL is still definitely one of my best characters.

Ok you lost to pre-patch Superman...so what? And being known as THE character crisis player, I wouldn't really imagine you main anyone. Or play anyone consistently. Don't you play Shazam now?

I have played GL for at least one match at WNF for at least the past 3 weeks.

And out of curiosity for you too, which Superman players do you practice against that make you feel like the matchup isn't bad?

Anyone I say other than Theo I'm sure will be followed up by something about I'm not playing top Superman players or something along those lines.

However, I play @xQUANTUMx and @NRF Everlast mostly. I won't bother naming some of the really good "randoms" because that's all they are to some people no matter their skill level.

And sorry, but I don't consider a main, or even a character being played "consistently", if you play them at least one match. But hey, that's just my scrub, unknown, mediocre, random opinion.
