Welcome to Test Your Salt 2

Welcome back to the Test Your Salt online Xbox One tournament hosted by yours truely ZigZag.
If you're unfamiliar with my tournaments they're friendly online tournaments created for competitive but friendly combat for those who don't have an offline scene or would like to play in a competitive atmosphere in preparation for offlines.

We all strive to compete one way or another and this is just an outlet for people who find enjoyment in competing just to prove to themselves how good they match up against other high level players!

Congratulations to our Test Your Salt #1 winner @Blakexton and our second place KillaDilla444 (who should really sign up to TYM)

Date/Time

Thursday 11th of June
8PM BST (UK)

Sign up

When you sign up please leave your Gamertag and region in this thread, therefore players can easily match their opponents on Challonge to the tags during the tournament.

Players will report their own scores on Challonge, please do not report falsely, if their is a dispute please go into your match history and record your matches through the DVR, DO NOT use Game DVR during matches as this adds input lagg, don't so will qualify in being DQ'd, to prove your replay is from the match history their will be HuD exclusive to the match replay system.

Stage = Random as hell, chose what you like.

Winners lock is on, players must replay the same character and variation upon winning, losers may change variation or character.

I had a feeling you'd pull out, just remember it is all for fun at the end of the day :)
But it's cool if you don't feel up for it.
The tournament is usually very late at night for me and takes a minimum of 2 hours, I don't want to spend that much time to enter top 3 and play someone I can't connect to.

That's fair enough, I swear it was always you who had Con problems to someone else :joker:

You need to stop playing by the book, even offline playing by the book doesn't always work players aren't robots they wont do everything to the frame on reaction, try cheesing shit yourself with things that may be considered unsafe to you sometimes people don't punish correctly.
Ryan and Jake made a great point yesterday something might be a bad idea unless someone doesn't punish correctly then just keep abusing it.

The connection problems were on your side tbh, out of everyone I can gurantee there's something funky with your net i'm afraid, not to sound insulting but players were a bit thrown off about the connection to you.
Not sure if I seeded you all wrong or if something was up with your net, you don't watch streams or youtube videos while you play right?

I'll sign up if there isn't a region clusterfuck. I'm only playing against other EU players.
