A Look Inside Pig's "Injustice NoteBook"

[Pig Of The Hut]

Many of you may have heard of this legendary huge notebook I made for every player and match up in MK9. In the end it consisted of over 350 pages of notes, statistics of every situation for every player I needed to plan for per MU, results, reviews of all footage recorded, what I need to adjust, what not to do, to do, etc etc etc x10.

Anyway, I thought I'd share 2 pages of my current Injustice notebook. It will look hella intelligible, however maybe some players can get something out of it in terms of going forward for MKX or maybe now till other majors in Injustice. This notebook for MK9 was extremely responsible for many victories I had that were close or blow outs and interestingly enough I did NOT start an Injustice Notebook like I did w MK9 until March after Final Round, I knew then I was missing something or many things. (Quite honestly because I was really f*@!ing tired of typing of all this stuff or writing it down in pencil. It was a mix depending on where i was when I had time to study).

Current Injustice notebook is only about 80 pages but here's an example of what it looks like.

I will not show the MK9 one at all because may notes are personal (lol) and have lines like "This guy has no f*%$ing idea whats going when I do XYZ....pees his pants" etc, etc.

The following was from prep I was making for EVO preparation while observing every path possible I would encounter.

If you have questions about anything I have wrote like, "What does that mean?", "Why would you include this?" "Etc" then ask so maybe for the future those who are serious about competing can maybe use this tool and study rather than worry why they are free.

Don't ask to "Can I see notes you had vs me".







I'll add couple more

Most of this is a from a statistic section i had on a player from a 4 hour series to learn

upon following these notes i won next series or two and helped tremendously

Youd be surprised how much you culd learn and become a better player if you just study and do tons of work


ALSO MY SCANNER SUCKS lol did not do whole page

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Holy sh*t

using this i create a statistical adv for myself in every possible MU sitution - also you truly learn a mu this way because you are analyzing every possible situation within every other situation

the #s speak for themslves

You can learn an assload of tendencies and how one thinks while doing this making your next series a dream

This worked wonders for me at ceo mlg evo

 

[Konqrr]

That's awesome. I used to do the same thing for UMK3 for player habits and options. Never got this detailed though.

There is no knowledge that is not power...
Nice work Pig

Pig's notes for me: Mostly harmless.

Someone will get this joke.

I used to think zod was the biggest d-head, then relaxed came over and spent countless hours playing it over and over and that helped tremendously, never thought to do all this though...

i'm super curious how you handle players like Forever King who may, at any moment, counter pick you with someone one time, and someone else the next.

Pretty interesting stuff.

The best stats i found were "if he does this... then his options are this and he is prone to do this and this is what is your best route to do."

I love it.

@AK Pig Of The Hut what really sucks is your handwriting lol but I agree this method helps tremendously. Notes I have written have helped in many ways and thats without even being as detailed as yours.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Oh also where you see me say something like

**LAB 2:47*** Thats me referring to watching a recording of me playing someone and im getting blown up by something or a setup repeatedly so im ordering myself to go to the lab immediately and find every possible hole and solution for this situation removing this issue that taking 50-80% of my life lol

detailed as possible matters

writing something like Zone more is not the answer lol

I have musicians hand writing, as long as i can read it im cool

Also im usually writing these at odd places i go to throughout the week

1. sitting waiting at a doctors office
2 toilet
3. at work meetings about to fall asleep cause nothing they are saying matters or is helping my job
4. ...................................red lights

You can begin learning tendencies and playstyles before you've even played someone by watching their attitude and the way they talk, personality in general.

 

[Groove Heaven]

This is fucking sick. This is true dedication.

I think I will do something like this for MKX.

 

[coolwhip]

You should have just bought the Injustice guide instead...

 

[16 Bit]

This is why we love you.

 

[EMPEROR PRYCE]

Reason why u got 2nd at EVO buddy. Hopefully we will still kno each other for MKX.

lol case n point

dave is calm and quite and says fool a lot and presents himself as a thinking man = plays the zod who dresses like a monk
pig is known as nuts ,potentially crazy, angry a lot and very agressive = plays the zod who looks/dressed like he is ready for a war on the mountains of mordor

By 10 Thousands mlies the angriest (notes that would be found hilarious by community) were those vs WoundCowboy's Shang and Sinestro

They are so bad that at 3-4 points through the notes on his SECTION you see me break a pencil and then go to red pen then scratch like nuts because it stops working and then back to pencil

 

[StevoSuprem0]

I think this is what the inside of my brain looks like... but with better penmanship...
Cool stuff Pig!

...I wonder what an Aquaman player's notebook would look like. Situation A: D1 trident rush. Situation B: D1 trident rush.
