What's new

So What's Next TYM?

So with all the hullabaloo and howdy doo about on TYM about the wave of positivity coursing through the veins of the forum. How long will it last and how long will it flourish. We've seen the song and dance a thousand times over, but this time will it blend? Lets not just talk about the change like our politicians, let's be about it. Its about time.

Slow clap.
 
I noticed TYM is going through eras
From the
Testers amoung us
Scorpion scare
MK > Injustice
EVO
Injustice is Dead
The patch
NEC
Sinestro and Batgirl
Final round
Yeah. But we see similar cycles within EACH of these "eras". But the Injustice is Dead to... the patch was like a "Night and Day change" which it was due to the game being flipped upside down. This new thing could be a big change, or it could be as bland a lateral move as MK > Injustice to EVO. However its nice to see the optimism. I like the spirit. It can only help the community grow/prosper

Honestly I think the community doesn't know what the hell to make of itself right now.

Be very very very interesting to see how Final Round through Evo plays out.

This has always been a debate in every community since the strategy was developed.

Not really an era
....But.. both those threads were made before this one... so how can they be next?
Even though these threads have already been made and every community has debate about this strategy(refereeing to the Counter-Picking). I can guarantee you that both will be discuss even MORE in the next Major or EVO.They might not have they own "Era", but they will be part of one.........or two in the near future.

Yeah but in Injustice, counter-picking isn't really as easy as it sounds. Especially with intractable and such. You'd actually have to have spent time PLAYING that character or you will be scrubbed up like the the lunch trays in public schools. Not sure too many Hard Counters exist. I mean most good Zod players would body a pocket Sinestro. So I don't think that will come into play too much. However 3/5 is a must due to aforementioned variables... (interactables) and the sheer force of some characters. Also Injustice games seem to go pretty quickly so I don't think time restraints will be too much an issue. Personally. I mean if they can do final round pools all night.. ect. ect.
 
SonicFox wins with Joker, everyone will complain about the block infinite and another hotfix will ensue.
2 Joker Nerfs... Never thought I'd see that as a possibility. However if that happens. People will then demand a hotfix for any character to ever win a major... then Injustice can be like Yugioh where after every Major, a couple of balance tweaks are made. Nothing major but it'll have Formats. Certain cards banned this format will be allowed in the next. Can't wait for level 4 venom implementation. The cost you ask? Once you go debuff.... you NEVER come out of it.... good luck!

Thinking about more and more Injustice is a rare case where Counter-Picking might not be in your best interest.Forever King and MITDJT could definitely speak on this subject.

The amount of damage a normal BnB can do in Injustice,the fact there is no real reset to the round ending and a amount of other things, yes 3/5 would help out a lot.Help out the players understand the situation there in,with 2 out of 3 you really can't do that.

Well, I for one would be happy to see people in the FGC in general be more open to helping new players level up and fostered into the tournament scene. I feel that would open up a huge array of possibilities for outcomes as well as bring more money to events like Final Round and EVO. Another side benefit might be the possibility of games like Injustice making it into shows like "Fight Night" and showing the world that the FGC IS worthy of MLG status as a major E-Sport.

I am willing to help out a new person learning the game as long as it is live. It is just hard to get in contact with new people trying to get into it unfortunately not everyone knows to come here to network.

2 people making a thread or video is hardly a site-wide wave. I think a lot of people will just continue to operate as they always have.

However, as far as what's going to happen next: our community is going to start organizing itself, and that will be the next big thing.

Well if we are starting to organize. If its not a wave I will take this ripple with a cheesy smile
