Cyrax may only have 2-3 losing matchups, the more I play certain ones. I feel Kabal (lol), Sonya, and Smoke may be his only bad MU's, with Kabal being 3-7 and the other 2 being 4-6.Cyrax only loses to characters with quick instant air projectiles. He probably only loses to Kabal Kang Kitana.
And Kang/Kitana might actually be 5-5's. Whoever said this has no idea what they are talking about
EDIT: And Cyblax can be used to take care of characters that give Cyrax a hard time. Cyrax is beast man lol
I know people want to blow me up for having bad tourney nerves, and that may be partially what caused my losses on saturday. I simply could not adapt to the stream monitor's delay better than my opponent, and therefore allowed him (kfrog) to jump in for free. Since we both have to play with the same delay, I cannot fault him for this and I accepted my loss graciously. I am glad that the PS3 was reset and tested afterwards because many people before me that played on it Saturday said the same thing but no on mentioned it until my teammate soonk got every top player to come talk to Phil about it to improve the condition for everyone else. I just didn't want to be "that guy" that gets labeled as salty and an excuse maker, so I couldn't say anything. Hopefully everyone understands me here, I am not making up excuses, I am just saying I couldn't adapt to the conditions I had to play in. I did go on to lose to another Kabal player (ermac...somthing was his tag) who beat me and props are due to him as well.
ok PL, lemme get playing to win over here to feel the setup with his raiden too
What?
Wait, so if you don't do anything you lose? How about doing something then... Sub Zero's corner game is anything but an infinite. I'm not saying this to be a dick but what are you talking about? And comparing Sub's tools to Kitana? What you're neglecting is how hard it is to get someone in the corner in certain match-ups. This is what Brady always talks about. He makes some things look easy so people overestimate Sub. Obviously, Sub's corner game is tremendous, but LBSH....
check his bradycast videos. he waits for the other guy either to commit to something or fo it to be too late and get the chip and another clone. it's really smart because that takes the guesswork out (because if someone acts too early they'll get caught, if they standblock they stay in jail plus chip, and if they crouchblock he can bigleg, freeze for a combo and keep you in jail) it's brilliant.
Don't get me wrong, it is not the actual statement that I disagreed with, but the fact that you said it in a way that makes it sound as if it's easy to actually do. If Brady does that, it's because he's that good, not Sub.
oh, that's addressed in a different post. i dont think sub's tools are easy to use, but i'm simply stating that he has extremely strong tools that can be used at the highest level very effectively.
And this is why I love the GGA guys. No bullshit. Keeping it real. They should rename themselves to Team LBSH.
Hahahaha I actually get that a lot =P
No way im getting into the kitana ermac mu discussion in here because it will derail this thread...but
Can't wait to read this!! Crum write ups and interviews own all. Give me a shoutout in there LOL!
Someone said in Injustcast that SonicFox was going to get blowned up, he made an awesome tourney.
- SonicFox5000 is the real deal: I ALREADY KNEW THIS but this certified it in stone. Proud and happy for him
- Big D Noob looks Soooooooooooo good and he needs to trust him more as well as his Lao. His ermac was very sharp but the #pig/foxtrixx got him
Wanted to see both players advance, hard to watch
What I learned from NEC. Having watched and rewatched my match videos over and over vs Wafflez, I learned that standing 2 AA isn't what cost me that match against Wafflez. My biggest problem was dropping combos in the corner. I dropped a hell of a lot of corner combos that could have won me games and instead cost me. Also, I could have won against Wafflez if I didn't do what I did at the end of the first game of the loser's finals for my pool. I ended up pulling a "Pig" and didn't convert my EN Spirit Charge in the corner for a full combo and instead just followed up with another Spirit Charge. I know I've gotten on your case about that in the past, but I can honestly I'm sorry that I did because it happens. In the heat of a battle, sometimes you know to do something and you don't do it and do something else. So now I can say it's happened to the both of us. If I had done d+1 or d+4 into RK, Wafflez wouldn't have been able to break and that combo would have killed him that round putting me up 1-0. And having won the second game in that set, I could have advanced, but that wasn't case. What is done is done. I can only learn from this and make sure next time I don't do it again, or rather try not to let it happen again. Wafflez adapted in that second match, played differently than he did in the first match, and came out the victor. So I say, a very good games to Wafflez.
one of my favorite people to play against.. a fun rivalry. i will play a ft5 for sure!
