Was meant to be 15+ but only 10 of us could make it.

Thanks for the thread, I'm sure Solid in particular will find it interesting ;)

They told him to not jump too much, and i think he told them, one of my Skarlet's strongest points besides Sensing and Anticipation is Anti-Air.
When he returned , he was jumping a lot less, which i found it nice, we haven't played again since then, because we're preparing ourselves for Flawless Victory 2013 official tournament day 31.
I'm sure he will place top 3 since he is been working more lately on his Kabal execution.
He learned good stuffs from them, as gaining life lead and turtle to win every time he has a good life lead ^^

go balls deep and dominate, all ima say about that.

yeah, zoning-heavy characters almost always benefit from a good lifelead, i see lots of kabals playing like all they main the char for is flashy dash cancels and rush in all day long. It's important to also play other people and see exactly why you lose, every person learns differently, some can lvl up by playing ppl on their lvl and some need to get thrashed to learn.

one thing that needs to be said is that execution only gets you that extra 4-5% in a combo, it doesn't help you land it or space your string well.

Hey bro
He got better as he played on, and we could see him improve from day1 to day2. it could also be that he doesnt have enough matchup experience vs some of our characters.
the jumping part was important, coz he was getting AAd everytime. also knowing when to turtle, and let the other player come to you instead of being impatient is key.
we would like to test our 'might' against you too Eddy Wang, so better book a ticket with Solid next time he is in Dubai :)

our plan is to go to the Greek Dojo this summer, and we already started the process. will be towards end of July - early August.

Damn, Metzos made me very nervous. I was very unlucky to be fighting him first.... :)

Anyway my Skarlet is pretty in her infant stages atm but I was* planning to lvl her up. I've dropped all my other characters for her and I know she won't let me down :)


*Unfortunately, I will be away for quite some time because of compulsory enlisting on the greek army (every male in our country has to serve for 9 months). I hope I won't be starting again from scratch when I return and I also hope the guys won't have dropped MK for Injustice :)

edit: Come to think of it, Metzos would have to join the army by the time I return so Ermac won't be a problem for a while :cool:

Eddy, Rhapsody is aroulis I believe in TYM.

NickDaGreek1983 was also there with his Liu Kang

Metzos can't afford himself of stay close to skarlet, so everytime you tried to slide him in to start your game, he knew it, and was simply jumping out.

though TKP is -17 i believe, he kinda knew you would try to hit him as soon as possible, so build your strategies around of what they think you should do (place yourself into their seat as you play) visualize, and counter.

That was the main problem. U didn't iaD as well, which made him more easy to trade with your daggers.

note: When you dagger cancel, and they trade, always cancel the useless frames with a D3, so their projectile may go over ^^

Other than that, i'm pretty sure if you touched him only once and the game was over ^^

iAD passes over Ermac when he does his projectile though, doesn't it? One mistimed iAD and he can teleport punish me on a read, which he has done many times during our Casuals...

Anyway, the main problem was that I couln't keep my calm and made a few bad choices that cost me both matches. I should have been more confident in using d1~US to AA crossups...
