Zyphox
What is going on guys, Ya Boi Zyphox here.
hi there i'm Zyphox for those of you who don't know me which is possibly every one..lol anyway i wanted to ask a good question that i always ask myself every since i got this game. is it too late to be good at mk? now for me i got this game for the xbox 360 may of last year and freakin loved it, but i wasn't into the FCG (wish i did 
) i played because i have been playing mk since i can remember, being dominican (obviously were gods at mk and baseball) all my cousin were older and played top mk 2, mk trilogy, umk3, i personally loved mk4 and have been in love with all mk (even 3d ones) since forever. but then around june i moved from brooklyn new york, too shitty Allentown PA (very offensive to anyone who lives here, i hate you all) and left my xbox at my mothers in brooklyn so no mk9 for me. i moved in with my GF and occasionally traveled to visit my mom ( dominican mothers cook the best food, so i had to go back, just ask the CD brothers) and tuned into EVO 2011 and saw what went down. at first back then i was like look at how skilled everyone is there's no way i will be able to catch up to them, and that was last august.
Now i have been a competitive gamer since 2008 playing halo 3, going to mlg events and such. it is my nature to be a highly competitive ( and salty) guy. so i decided to go get my xbox, pick this game up, and see how good i can become. but when i got back to my xbox my mk9 disc was stuck inside the xbox and broke while trying to pull it out. i was crushed, i watched so much gameplay, learned everything really before i had the game back only to have it broken, but i didn't quit. i have seen almost every tournament since evo ( surprise no perfect legend
) and tried to get my hands on a copy but couldn't afford it. not until christmas day when my lovely GF bought me a ps3 and mortal kombat ( i cried) did i finally have the game with the intention to be good and compete. since then i finally join TYM, picked up JC and studied so much film, but my dilemma is that i live in allentown, if i would have stayed in brooklyn vsm is right there i would have been there every thursday. i have been there one time, two weeks ago from today and it opened my eyes as far as how far behind i really was. i played insuperable and he tought me so much, tom brady right off the bat alrady could tell how far behind i was. at vsm i figured out what i must do to catch up, first is to switch from my tv. i have a 42 inch tv with lag and it fucked my up so badly, when i got to vsm i couldn't even finished a combo. second i had to get a better connection to atleast have the timing between offline and online be a bit better. since then i have switch to a room closer to my wireless, and to a standard definition tv until i get a monitor with no display lag. but here is where the problem lies, i psych myself out, always telling myself its too late to catch up, i suck, stick to halo, i live far from good competition ect. my question since reading all this if you have is, is it to late to dedicate yourself to a game your behind in by 9 months?
now i know about some people who will pick this game up that are relevant gamers to other fighters like SSFF and marvel just because of mlg. is it too late for them as well? also i exagerate a lil by saying i suck, i am actually confident that i am good for someone who has played this game for less than 3 months, and recently i hit a break through playing with no display lag, like i always do with competitive video games. if anything when you answer the question of my predicament, could you give me some advice? i have JC frame data tattooed in my brain, i think i have an edge at tournament because i don't get nervous, atleast am consistent, with halo 3 i preformed on feature station for the first time very well, i also played high school basketball for a team that makes it to the playoffs every year and preform well, i adapt well, and my reads are godlike ( will be majoring Psychology this fall if that has anything, and its my passion). let me stop tooting my own horn lol anyway..... please let me know, am 50/50 right now on wether i should keep going and catch up, or should i hang it all up and play halo 4. what do you think?
TL
R got this game on christmas, i feel like its too late to be good at this game and catch up. do you think that its true or is there still time?
also if you can add me on psn Zyphox___ and help a fellow tym member level up ( as much as possible with garbo online) thanks
