youre not the only one - i was like hmmm wheres my fix.

 

[Tweedy]

It took me like 100 matches on the beta vs Hellfires until I stopped running into flame auras lol. Can be an issue if you aren't used to it.

 

[kelevra]

lmao my dude @st9rm vaping in the background a couple times ;D

It's an awesome footsie tool. There's something about that move that causes extreme levels of salt when it works.

Yeh the monitors on stage were 2 frames delayed so i couldnt do my kang pressure. If i do my normal cancels like usual then i get a fireball mess up. I wasnt nervous i was confused and frustrated. No one can adapt on the spot to the delay who mains liu kang, each frame is essential. I struggled with the HoG monitors because they are different to the benq ones that im used to. Nothing i could do on the spot in Esl unfortunately i just got unlucky , if kang cant cancel then wat can i do

 

[IrishMantis]

Really good show I absolutely love St9rm he's so down to earth.

JTB covered really good points on why should the U.S. Guys visit us

Good stuff as usual

 

[MK_Al]

uhhh... can't wait to listen. granted, if @st9rm is bitching about Lao i'll personally scrape ex Kunai off the viennality mkx discs

 

[Phosferrax]

The intro/outro are gdlk.

 

[aieches]

good takeda talk with @st9rm . hit a lot of good points is quick recession that could help a lot of people play as and fight takeda.

 

[STRYKIE]

So um yeah... about everyone who was talkin' shit about Triborg's fatality:

These punk ass 2011'ers and their lack of MK3 homage/appreciation...

It's an awesome footsie tool. There's something about that move that causes extreme levels of salt when it works.

Which is why the move needs buffs so it makes people even more salty. LBSH it should function like Tremors earth shake but set the entire stage on fire.

So um yeah... about everyone who was talkin' shit about Triborg's fatality:

These punk ass 2011'ers and their lack of MK3 homage/appreciation...

Tell me about it man. In time they will learn from this.

I can appreciate it but it doesn't mean that I have to like it.

 

[TackyHaddock]

Good stuff as always lads

 

[NYCj360]

Perfect timing! I needed something new to listen to.

 

[ZigZag]

Uh oh, PC discussion, this should be a good episode.

 

[Yoaks]

Triborgs fatality is the GOAT Fatality.

 

[st9rm]

ty for having me, had a blast!
i take back saying i liked the tremor mu..
@Mijnwop aka RZA proved me wrong

 

[Nuovo_Cabjoy]

Good shit once again lads, great discussions as always. Good to hear @st9rm's thoughts on ESL and the players. Was such a tragic moment for @Pig Of The Hut but I think he'd even agree that it's a small sacrifice for the hype that St9rm brought to the table.
