Dink vs KevoDaMan $250 Money Match at Combo Breaker?

[Tanno]

Thats not a good argument though. Kevo's characters could get completely obliterated in the next patch and Quan would probably be buffed if anything. Why would Kevo pick a character now (Like 6 months from the event) when he has no idea who he would even play in a new patch?

This whole thread is dumb. I agree with @Rude that they should do it on RHS before the patch to limit excuses.

Edit: Disclaimer, I haven't payed attention to any patch hints so if they've already said they are nerfing Quan that's a bit different.

Quan is not the only one nerfed. Mileena's nerfed, too. Both have their own share of nerfs. So they're good to go.

Character loyalist asking a non character loyalist to tell you in advanced who they'll pick is not an even playing field. The character loyalist will have to adjust to the patch changes whereas the non-loyalist may have to learn a new character altogether because the changes no longer fit his playstyle. Again, if everyone is as good as they think they are, there's no need for special stipulations. Just play.

If the non loyalist would pick a character based on playstyle then it would make sense, but Kevo picks based on tiers.

Besides, part of Dink's "accusation" was that, by jumping to tier to tier, Kevo never developed his fondamentals, and Kevo of course disagreed. He wants to prove he is the better player? He wants to prove that he has fondamentals and is not carried by his character? Then play on an even field. Simple as that.

Again, it's too easy to claim to be the faster pilot while driving a Ferrari.

In my opinion the one who talked shit first should also be the one to adapt to the other's request in a situation like this.

Besides, Dink even proposed to go right then and there against Mileena, witch was already in a disadvantage. Kevo refused even that, witch I don't understand why.

You hate money or sthg

People used to say the same to Cowboy for his money match with ForeverKing and for the same reasons. Then he won.

Your lack of punctuation is dreadful.

Who are you again? Was my punctuation better this time? Ps....Hold this L last time we will ever talk

 

[Darth-Nero]

last time we will ever talk

Thank God.

 

[Gofer_MK]

Hmmm. This whole "Hold this L" is sooo childish. How can an adult say/write something like this with a straight face.

 

[Tweedy]

Let's say you and your friend want to race each other in a few months. You both have cars now but they will be gone pretty soon, replaced by brand new cars. You're okay with that, you think you're that much of a better driver to where it doesn't matter Your buddy doesn't want to since you guys don't really know wether you're gonna be driving a Corvette or a Honda Prelude and he wants to be sure he ends up in the Corvette.

I like you Dankster but this post is nonsense.

Dink is allowed to use whatever he wants. Dink is not sponsored, Dink is not a threat to win NEC and other majors.

Why would Kevo practice a character that he may not use, to face Dink IN MAY AFTER THE GAME MIGHT BE DEAD, when he's got upcoming majors where his best chance is using top tier?

This is why top players don't post on TYM. Beta male mindsets. Oh my god top tier *cries*. Yeah, easy to say when you're sitting at home, not pressured to beat players like Sonic, Scar, Dragon, who use top tiers as well.

If everyone on TYM put themselves in Kevo's shoes, this would be a tomato throwing festival at Dink. Kevo vs Dink under normal tournament rules is not interesting, so lets shake things up. Who cares if Kevo practicing a potential low tier would hurt his chances at winning NEC? I want that popcorn enjoyment breh.

Take spornsors out of it, it is between two dudes, it is about blood and honour. xD

I thought it was weird that you'd refuse such advantage. However I've heard something, I'll watch the video again.

I'm really having an hard time understanding this, you really should use commas here and there.

Thank God.

Gofer actually has a point there Tweedy, if he doesn't want to prove he is better for whatever reason then he shouldn't talk shit to other players. Simple as that, that's why I said that whoever talked shit first should accept the other's terms (as long as they make sense).

 

[DanableLector]

I don't think there is any reeeeal beef here. @STB Shujinkydink feels he has been disrespected, and is calling @KevoDaMaN out under terms he believes are fair. Are they fair? Not for me to say, but he's willing to put 250$ on the line and bring the hype so who gives a shit? (To be clear, if this were to happen if want it in 2016)

I hope Kevo and Dink can come to terms in some way, because I really enjoy watching them both play, and there has already been some super juicy shit in this thread.

Let's make this happen doods! Btw, what's up with Kevo attracting all this hate? Last Sunday I saw @Destroy_Scvm drop the most gnarly tea bags on that Mileena. It was so awesome. Kevo seems like a nice dude though, people just hate tier whoring that much I guess??

 

[Versa Jay]

I honestly don't see the point of this thread. Kevo said that he picks whoever he wants and Dink picks whoever he wants. If that isn't fair then tournament rules aren't either. On another note if you get offended by Kevos trash talk then your just being sensitive.

For once i actually agree with tweedy.

 

[EMPEROR_KNICKS]

Honestly imo, i think that if dink wants to play kevo, he should. But he shouldn't be adding any of these conditions, if dink really feels like he is better than kevo than he should just play him with no bullshit.

 

[Rude]

I've been a Shujinkydink fan for a long time.

BUT...

Why wait so long to settle this Grudge? Why not just play tonight on someone's stream? Why all this wishy-washy "pick before the patch" talk?

If Dink thinks he's better, it shouldn't matter who Kevo picks. They should just play and resolve it.

This back and forth is a lot of drama over nothing.

I love some good shit talk, but not if it doesn't go anywhere.

Just play and let the best man win.

 

[JDM]

thing is if you actually think someone sucks and you're not getting carried by your character why not accept the challenge to actually shut him up


seems funky.

Personally I'm not a fan of tier whoring, but I belive that the shit talking is mostly the reason for all the hate.

I don't know if you know he started with me watch the video

well I have to be honest, rewatching the video, even though you started being completely aggressive first at 3:56:45, Dink did say some passive aggressive shit even before that.

you ain't completely in the wrong man, I gotta be honest. you should still use them commas though.

my point about beating him on an even field still makes sense though, I agree with @Tweedy that it would be inconvenient for a sponsored player, but that's how you prove that you are not getting carried by top tiers.

 

[FrostiBarrel]

This thread is dumb as fuck. Tweedy nailed it right on the head when he said why this is so appealing to tym people lol.

 

[CompleteMadness]

Reminds me of when grown men continuously say bruh/breh.

 

[SylverRye]

What does his grammar, slang or punctuation have to do with anything in this thread? Some of you people man... Anyway, i dont like the rule. Dink pick who you want, Kevo pick who you want and play.

Its much easier for a character loyalist to adapt to changes than someone who jumps characters, i would know since i main liu kang. If a top player (eg scar, foxy dragon etc) calls someone trash would you then tell them to use a random character against your main? Because lets face it, every top player mains a top tier. That rule sounds silly man. Just play under standard rules.
