Kombat Tomb Podcast - Ep. 18 with IKizzLE

Really good shit, as always guys.

This is the best thread for me to post this thought:

Remember when Dink was on and he said he was pissed that JWong beat him in finals at some canadian tournament and then said "NRS makes shitty games." before walking off? I do.
I wonder how Wong feels now that someone did the same exact shit to him and one of "his" games? Looks like capcom makes shitty games too.
Still listening but curious to know the backstory, who blew up JWong and in what game?

Random japanese guy in a group called "shitty games club" (in japanese of course) comes to america, and sweeps final round with a joke team (rocket raccoon, viewtiful joe, and frank west). Then says pretty much, I'm never coming back, peace bitches.

He trolled the mvc community hard core.

Also, I watched the full vid on shoryuken, and that game has a fucking infinite (at least one) and the commentators called it out "oh got him in the infinite...HEY HEY HEY HEY"

And this is the same game with followers who do nothing but bitch about the "block infinite" that is JC and Kabal pressure.

I love this game, and I want to love the fgc, but seriously mvc... get the fuck outta here with this rediculous amount of double standards and hypocricy.
 
Oh ok, I actually watched the Marvel and SF4 streams as I enjoy those games as well. I wonder if he was the one who eliminated Wong before top 32.

As for the infinite, are you talking about X-factor Felicia with the pouncing bullshit in the corner during grand finals? When I saw that I was like WTF?? ...at least infinites in MK require execution, lol; seemed like all Rog had to do was mash.

I think there are a couple block infinites in the game. One I remember being discussed was something with Arthur's spears, but you can break it with activating x factor.
 

Gesture Required Ahead

Get on that hook
Don't worry guys, all the block inf in MK will be fixed in *ahem*

Super Komplete Ultimate Mortal Kombat 9 Tournament Arcade Online Super Turbo HD EX Edition 2012 X.

But I heard it had on-disc DLC's and the new fad which is intentionally releasing the game broken and it has on-disc patches that could only be downloaded if you purchase the new *ahem*

Alien life is almost certainly out there. Intelligent life besides us probably isn't that close though. I think we'll find the first alien life within our lifetimes though. My guess is microbes on a moon in our solar system but it'll happen.

Really interested to see if the $200 STH vs Ikizzle match is going to happen. My money is on Ikizzle winning it though.
 
I think most JC players will agree with me on this and this is why hes not top 10.
He has way too many bad match ups to be top 10: Kenshi, reptile, kabal, sonya, sektor, freddy, subzero, maybe noob. How can a character be top 10 with 7 bad mu?

@ Slips

Who ever talked out alien HAD NO IDEA about biology or evolution when you talked about alien LOL. Osu 16 Bit was right about alien would not look like human at all. Do you know how many animals out there with different number of hands and feet? Your argument of having 2 hands, 2 feet for aliens is a stupid idea. THERES NO SINGLE PATH EVOLUTION, biggest misconception of Evolution

Slips, stick with Scorpion for those zoners and start working on another character with a better footsie game. Then turn in into a podcast feature and discuss weekly which character you've sampled! (Skarlet ;))

I disagree that its your fault the 5v5 was lost. If team 16 bit was as strong as vsm your teammates would have seen the two babies as a fluke and would have devised a new strategy on the spot. The reason the babies were heavy is because you had underestimated vsm and at that moment realization came crashing down that they were actually on another level. THAT's the reason you all lost, nothing to do with babies and everything to do with just being straight up outplayed. They would have won babies or not, no question.

The reason we listen to the podcast is because you guys have a very entertaining back and forth on all topics, you are great players, and you discuss the game we all love. The fact that you lost to the best doesnt change any of that. Your contribution to the community via the podcast has grown larger that your performances as individual players.

My opinion on the podcast or you as players has not changed whatsoever because of the 5v5, and I know I'm not the only one that feels this way.

Peace

they're great man, keep it up!
I especially love the off topic discussions like the "energy just wants to be remembered" idea from the last episode to the aliens this week.
<3 slips (no homo). It's funny how these things go down, wish i was on the podcast to back you up!

Shoot them. Shoot them all.
I may have been the mk player you guys were talking about in regards to the NAS or NOS drinks at FR...I had like 4 of them all day before my pool (pool D), on an empty stomach, and it fucked my blood sugar up so bad I nearly fainted...I had to leave and thus got DQ'ed...

I found your alien talk interesting. Food for thought:
The age of the universe is 13.75 +/- 0.11 Billion years old.
Our civilization has been around for 250,000 years (give or take)

Now this is a time function, meaning the 4th dimension in space-time. Everyone that says "Well, the universe is so vast, there has to be life out there!" is only taking into account the 3 dimension, and neglecting all the others, namely time. The amount of time, percentage wise, that we have existed relative to the universe is 1.92307692 × 10-5 That is an insanely small number. So what are the odds that alien life exists AT THIS MOMENT? Basically zero. So there may have been life before, but their civilization may have come and gone in the blink of the universe's eye.

Now run these numbers using nth dimension (M-Theory accounts for 11 I believe).

I've never tried NOS. I've never really tried any energy drinks outside Redbull and Monster. Using those as a bench mark, how much worse/effective is NOS? I'm not even sure we get it here in Canada, will take a look next time.

That NOS was the weirdest shit. It never seemed to get either too warm or too cold. And it tasted like orange medicine. It did wire me up though.

I will continue to listen and download for as long as you guys continue to want to do the show. I'd love for you guys to find a way to get two guests... a well known guy and an up an comer at the same time. To kind of get both sides of the tourney and scene.

RunwayMafia dude My heart goes out to you. I've had the same thing happen to me, those damn energy drinks are the devil in disguise. You and Slips learned valuable lessons about those fucking drinks man!!! LOL.

I'd honestly love for Slips to use a different character... because I think he hasn't tapped what he can truly do in the game. Character loyalty is one thing when the character can compete.
