A F0xy Grampa

Problem X Promotions
Ok. I have finally been baited to reply to explain the method behind my jumping 'madness'. And no, its not ONLY because I'm a frog. Though that does make it even more tempting.

A heart-felt thanks to those that had nice things to say about me/my gameplay - I really appreciate it. I've mained Ermac since the day the game came out, and as you all know he suffers in alot of matchups, but I love Ermac and I will main him forever. I hope I was able to provide some entertainment :)

Oh...and Pig of the Cunt...this is just an introductory FUCK YOU for you always shitting on me and everyone else, regardless of the context. But first, 2 points for those in the community that have not already made up their mind about me and my play style.

1. Do I jump alot? Yes. Would I jump that much if I was being properly anti aired? No. That's on Han, and on any player in this community that loses to me and allows me to jump in on them to take damage. Even so, jumping and landing 1 jip gives me 51%. That's the main reason why I do it so much, and I do it more in some matches than others...sometimes alot more. I mentioned this in my Ermac guide over on MKU, but I take it not many have seen that. After all, who am I right? Oh he knocked Master D out of Evo? He took out Han at NEC? Reo voted him best Ermac in the world after he took more matches off his kabal at T-13 than Ermac ever has? There must be some explanation for why k-frog won. Could it possibly be that he's...gasp...a good player?

"Get the fuck out of here" ~m2dave

2.Real Talk. The risk of someone catching an anti air when i jump in is balanced by the massive damage I get to take if they miss it - which people do. ALOT. Both commentators were surprised at how much damage I took with that kombo when I landed it on Han, and yes...it started with a jump in punch. Also, if you watch the match, if I HADN'T jumped after i cancelled that last B2 when I had Han in the corner in the last round of the last match, I would have eaten that ex rag doll he threw out and lost the match, and then fgts like Pig would have run to the forums/streams/podcasts and been like SEEE SEE SEEEEEE he jumps too much and that's why he lost SEEE SEEE SEEEE!!!!!!...oh wait. He did that anyways even though I won. Also, much of the damage I took from Han in that last round was a result of jumping at clutch times and escaping things that would have hit me or taken damage were I on the ground. Also, jumping fucks up kombos if you read a string is about to begin and do it as the kombo is starting. You can see that happen multiple times in my match with Han, and is one of the reasons I was able to avoid/he dropped some of his high damaging kombos.

Zaf, you told me Han didn't anti air properly so fuck outta here with your post. seriously. I love you too, but you're ridiculous sometimes with these posts that you never say to me. cut it out. That one time I jumped back again after I landed the jip was a mistake. I make those sometimes. Brothers in souls and country. fucking remember that, and thanks for the advice at NEC, it helped alot. Just be real man, it suits you better. Gossip is for women.

16 Bit - You deserved that pop off. Never done that in my life or ever felt the need to, and if there was ever anyone that deserved it or a situation that called for it...its you and that situation...and you damn well know it.

And finally... Pig - seriously, all I have to say to you is a big FUCK YOU. I have lost all respect for you, regardless of your skill level at this game. You have a shitty elitist attitude, and that attitude is one of the biggest reasons this community is so fragmented. You never give me any respect for anything when I deserve it, and you always talk down to other people in this community, not just me. I've heard it from ALOT of people, and I've had it with you and your nonsense. I beat an amazing player who was using a broken 1 touch and you're dead character...with Ermac...in one of the biggest comebacks of my life...on stream at one of the most stacked majors there has ever been with his team mate talking shit to me during my whole match. Suck my FUCKING balls with your misplaced and salty negativity about me, and why don't you run your mouth to my face instead of whining on forums about how I jump too much and trying to constantly downplay me, and others. Putting your ass on blast tonight for SURE. You think Bit got it bad...Grow the fuck up you deceptive, manipulating, passive aggressive, ego maniacal, insecure COWARD. *UNFRIENDED*

HOLD THAT.

HUGE Shout outs to 9.95 Dark Rob, Storms, Shock, SwiftTomHanks, Pherleece, Arez, and anyone else that helped run the event this weekend that I missed - your efforts are appreciated by those in the community that have actually grown up/are mature, please don't let a few whining bad apples spoil the party for the rest of us with tales of bracket rigging, and other things of that nature. Thanks for all you guys do for the community, and for giving me such a warm welcome in Philly.

PREPARE TO BE BLOWN UP

METZOS > YOU

 
Seriously, I think only you and Blackula are the only good Kenshi's out there.

The problem with the characters in this game, I think some of them only gel so well with a players play style. Only a very small handful of people in this community can play multiple characters at a high level (MIT, Forever King, Detroit).

Most people are specialists.

For example players like you, Dizzy, 16 Bit, Slips, m2Dave, Tyrant, Brady, Waffles are character specialists. You know your character/s inside out, which is why you get more out of them than most, regardless of "tier placing".

What makes me laugh is I remember a time when a few top guys were all making threads about how they are picking up Kabal, like we should all be shitting out pants, and to be serious, only REO's Kabal is the Kabal everyone is threatened by.

It's for reasons like this, that im glad Curbo and Tom are dropping the "im maining a top character" BS and going back to what they are comfortable with.

Haha, I just realised I probably inadvertently gave out props with that rant.
solid post, also you can add DJT and Daddydab to that list of being able to play multiple characters at a high lvl :), and yeah i will NOT go to kabal and i'm hope all others do the same bcuz seriously speaking, REO's kabal is the only won doing ALOT of work.
 
You're just so cool and laid back, that people don't think of you as a kid. It's ok though -- you don't need to be a prodigy when you have swag. You can tell the other prodigies to hold that.
haha on me though, i got dat swagger. I really am cool and laid back, i talk heck of trash, but in person i'm completely different, i'm like muhammad ali kind of mk9, talk trash to build hype then back it up come tournament time haha.
