What's new

San Antonio, TX: Subway $5 footlong!

MK is kinda dope
From everybody who doesn't know Funkpanda, he is a SC4 player who was never, ever able to beat me and is apparantely bitter about it. I have no doubt he's just as bad at this game as he is SC4. Funkypanda, I apologize for traumatizing you in that game. I'll go easier on you in SC5, I pwomise

Bassman: Game died a while ago, nobody plays it anymore. TX has better SC4 players than MK players though lol. We had quite a few guys that qualified for Nationals

I think he was dressed like that because Nori wore the same exact outfit at nationals. too lazy to find the vid. he was the modern day jerry back then. going to tournaments with cut off and muscle shirts. lol old times.

What's funny is that the guy in the vid (he's a houston player that goes by BBOY Tekken, really cool guy) found the EXACT bandanna I have been using for tournaments since 2002. I only retired it a year ago because it is now some weird black color and it's pretty gross.

Mario by and far wins most improved award. He did very well in this tournament and is getting harder and harder to beat. And after the patch, Jade is getting a lot better, which is awesome

New patch rumors from NRS:

Freddy Krueger

- damage output has been toned down dramatically; staple combos involving EX ground spikes do 40% damage

- the gloss toss has more recovery frames (not 100% confirmed)

- projectile immunity glitch is still in the game but will be fixed

Johnny Cage

- f+3,2 is no longer special cancelable but f+3,3 still is

- damage reduction on nut punch (not 100% confirmed)

Kung Lao

- the spin (d,f+1) has no pushback on block any more

- the low hat (d,b+2) has a couple more recovery frames

Reptile

+ EX slide has armor

- slight damage reduction in some combos

- elbow dash is -21 on block; it is -15 on block in the current version of the game

Skarlet

- 17% of damage reduced to 11% of damage on throw

Sub Zero

+ EX slide has armor






Which means, my F3, 2 nutpunch no longer works. Now I have to do F3, 3. What suck is F3, 2 advances me so far, but it's fine. I'm glad Reptiles elbow is easier to punish, even though it didn't need to be.

What's entirely stupid IMO is that they didn't touch Kabal, who I still feel is the best in the game. And SZ's dash in EX Freeze is stupid too, I can't believe they aren't going to address that. NRS must want good ole Tom to win some tournaments. JC's nerf is very minor (unless there is going to be more nerfs I'm not aware of). He can still jab into nut punch, F33 into nut punch also.

Thank you, I have to work really hard with jade, its not easy using her....I have to work on anti airs more with all characters....picking up skarlet , sonya and kung lao, still working on noob and kitana.

Lets have a gauntlet night

Did anyone talk to the subzero player about coming again?

WOW people are SO MAD in the JC forums about F3, 2 nutpunch! I had to close the thread, they are acting like Cage got raped. If anybody should be complaining, its that Cyrax still does 58% damage w/1 meter, and the hilarious part is that they haven't even mentioned anything about Cyrax yet. I'm gonna laugh if they nerf Cage and leave all of Cyrax's BS in the game lol

GGs at Gameworx guys let's see how long we can keep this going. Gauntlet night next week sounds like it can be fun

6 extra frames on recovery for elbow dash does seem kind of fair seeing as how it was pretty free on some characters. Armor on slide makes me pretty happy so it sounds fair to me. The slight damage nerf doesn't seem too bad when it might only be for those corner combos, but still kinda BS on how they haven't said anything yet for Cyrax.

Well these patches are just from looking at the game play from what it said on the front page. But its not the final ver. I am certain the resets of sz and rax are gonna be gone except for his bnb which still can do up to 58% with a bar.

But I dont think JC will be as strong with out his f 3+2. That move along from what i read made him to top Tier. It puts you more at a advantage than his other strings on block. Not to mention the ground it covers. His van damn kicks are easier to get out of plus his flash kick got a lil nerfed as well.

explain the gauntlet to me?

Mario said that in gauntlet one guy plays against everybody else and critiques are given to that one player over their match or something like that

F3, 2 does not put me on adv on block, it's neutral. What happens is that JC has a great D1 which is 6 frames. His F3, 3 is the one w/adv. And he's not top tier, he's just very solid and happens to do great against KL. He dies to Noob, SZ, Kabal and some others. JC up close is nothing but guessing. If you jump, I can 11 you and start a combo but if you duck my 11, I'm dead. If you move towards me, D1 will start a floater so i can combo. If you jump over my D1 and cross me up, I just lost my adv. It's just about understanding the character, he's all mixups. F3, 2 still hits and puts me at adv and I can see F33 to nutpunch if I need to. He's still upper mid, just a little harder to play that's all

And for gauntlet, should this person play everybody first to 3 (best of 5)? 1 match really isn't enough to critique IMO
 
gauntlet night will probably take a really long time depending on the players and sets, so we have to plan accordingly....lets level up before the sept 22nd tourney!

Im probably gonna head out to subway fight night....what time does it start?

Goes from 5-9. He's trying to make it extend till midnight so let's hope that happens. Also they're having potential sponsors coming out tonight to check the place out.
Come down even if it's for a hour to jam some MK to help the SFN
