GGA Slips claims another victory at Galloping Ghost Arcade's Ghost Battle Series # 2

[GGA HAN]

Last weeks' champion has retained his crown, but this week using only Cyborg! Deciding to switch it up from his usual Deathstroke that brough GGA Slips victory at Ghost Battle Series # 1, Slips ran through the entire bracket in winners using a very basic, yet effective Cyborg playstyle to frustrate his opponents. Consisting of mainly d1's, grounded nova blasts, sonic disruptors and solid spacing, Slips proves that its not the character, but the player, that makes the difference in the end. There were a total of 16 competitors that faced off this week, showcasing a variety of lesser-used characters.​

Thanks for the post, and to answer Bits question, although I can't speak for everyone, it's hard to wanna spend money to travel for Injustice in it's current form. And it cost alot to get to the good tournys from where I am. Not sure about the Toronto and Montreal guys as they are the east coast of Canada. But I know they are still playing. We have a local here in Calgary on Sunday, will be streamed you can all watch my Arrow get blown up. Probably by a Bane or Black Adam, or Aquaman, or some such shit. lol.

Thanks for posting the Archive Han, I missed watching, and it's been great to have tonight at work.

Everyone just fast forward to about 1:23:00 in the archive (Emperor_Max vs. The Truth) and hear the commentary.

 

[Aris_adapted]

[Barracuda Deathwish]

Awesome job with Cyborg! Sick of seeing people only pick the top tier guys. Any jackass can be good with Superman or Batman......

Again this tournament was very fun. I'm really glad GGA is doing a weekly. And big time props to GGA Slips. I had zero clue what to do about Cyborg, and ground shot keep away game gave me fits. Also GGA pimpimjim and his Hawkgirl were on fire.

It's just been bad luck at having some other obligations the past two Thursdays. I'll try and make it next Thursday.

 

[Relaxedstate]

Cool tournament. I like how GGA show off underused "low tier" characters. Please stick with Cyborg slips, we need supporters bad!!!! It was pretty clear that no one really knew how to fight against Cyborg lol

 

[Slymind]

GGA is always entertaining, another great show.

Congrats to Slips.

 

[Skkra]

1) Someone needs to nerf Slips.
2) That picture of him is fucking hilarious.

 

[Dust]

Great watch guys!

 

[AK Harold]

Grats on another event and to GGA Slips that was an abusive amount of fundamentals applied there. It was truly inspiring and makes me want to play this game more again! Especially since I love watching Cyborg play for some reason. Plus great pic LoL.

 

[RM Truth]

Gonna be showing off a new character for next week. Hopefully, he will be ready by then.

I've been trying the super simple super lame Slips Cyborg technique and its surprisingly effective and fun making ppl mad at the same time.
