What's new

We have an online mode that's better than MK9. When are we actually going to use it right?

i never said that.

you have ZERO bars with me. As PL said, online can be very VERY hard when it comes to stopping certain things. I dont want to stick it out in an ok connection. Just because "other players do it" doesnt mean I want to. If something is very good then I'll play in it, I will not play in a connection thats just ok. Doing that gives you terrible habits.


@DarthArma LOL bro.. I have DD down pretty well. Went 5-4 vs Noobe at FR. I played Qwark at least 50 or more games once. I have no problem playing him, but not when im working on other things atm. if im in practice working on finding new tech vs other characters then i'm not joining any session. If im in a session working on a mu then im not going to leave to play another session. Everyone seems to want to play all at once all of a sudden. I'm one man, cant play 20 ppl at once.
The King of Atlantis cares not for the disruption of one tiny ocean compared to the vast land that is his kingdom! His online execution will never lose to even those as powerful as superman! SUBMIT!

I got games with Tom Brady for the first time a couple days ago, and I'm just an online warrior. However, @DarthArma promised he wouldn't forget me.... but I'm still just sitting here, Waiting. Maybe one day he'll come...
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo :( my bad dude, but right now im in the middle of the ocean somewhere so my connection isnt going to be good enough. I'll just have to do what qwark does and use one of my many other options to get in games with top players......


In all seriousness I'll have time to play with you tomorrow. Just send me a PM here and I'll get back to you

What is going on guys, Ya Boi Zyphox here.
With all due respect, I sometimes think this whole notion of, "Ugh, the top/popular players wont give me any games!!", is sometimes just in their heads.

-Theo has given me several sets both pre and post Evo.
-M2Dave has played me a lot, always nice and up for sets.
-Tom has given me a long set, after he invited me first.
-Noobe added me on PSN wanting to run the DD vs KF mu, and has consistently offered more
-Pig has always sent those stealth invites, lol ;)

I just think if you are new or inexperienced and truly wanting online sets with these gentleman, just try to arrange or plan a time with them. I have YET to run into a top player diva who has said no or hasn't already asked me for sets.
you know except when we first tried to play each other we added each other then never played XD :DOGE

Also, I think a lot of offline exclusive players tend to ~~confuse~~ some of us tournament-goers who have no scene and truly use online for MU exp/ practice, with LEGIT online warriors who are OBSESSED with the leader boards and shit.

I have a wired connection and when I play other members from this site with a wired connection, it's crisp and sometimes there isn't a hint of lag. I have a set standard for which I judge a connection:
1.) If I can land three consecutive U3's with KF with ease.
2.) If I can punish a blocked air gun shot from Harley at sweep distance.
3.)If I can back dash a blocked J2 from CW.
4.) If I can parry after GL's B1.

If I can do any of these 4 criteria, I will be satisfied. Plus no one really wins using these alleged "online tactics", lol.
HOLD UP I CAN PUNISH HARLEYS AIR GUN SHOT?!!!!

I got spoiled by playing with someone offline. I tried online for a month and got Hate Messages for Winning with Shazam. Apparently people dont know how to block Torpedo online. I also Realized i was never able to do my Bnb so i just stopped Playing online entirely.

also u wouldnt even test it man just cause it says zero bars doesnt mean its laggy nrs servers are shit. i live across the ocean of course its going to say zero. it only has 2 3 bars when your in same country u play foxy right???he has the slowest connection out of the uk players according to a few players but like i said when i played m2dave i said how is the connection he said better than foxys which is good for when i play him its fine. why not just try it u didnt even give me a chance to see what it was like and then because of this u removed me well.....

But yeah I get it, lag often makes you adopt bad habits that won't really work offline. And it makes everything harder to react to and harder to block.

But even then, even with lag I think both players can still learn a lot. They just can't react to things and execute as well but they still learn the MU and what to look out for imo.

Plus how many top Jokers are there in the world? lol. If I was practicing for EVO I would definitely hit up Qwark to get that Joker exp.

I agree with your post. There already ARE groups of players who band together online to learn and level up. To gain match up experience and really grind out problem match ups in long sets, giving feedback and advice. They are called clans/teams and I recommend that anyone who wants to "use online right" join one.

Btw Tom, Team NRF is still accepting members. I'm positive that we could help each other out ;)

Top players should play whoever they want to. No one should be forced to play anyone they do not want to play.

There are a ton of top level representatives for most common tournament characters. If one is busy, try to contact the others. No point wasting your time on one person if that person is busy/ignoring you
