It was a loaded shakedown today with some great action, our champion is Denkai. Thanks to everyone who participated and made it a great experience, and thank you XZY for helping me out to organize The Shakedown.

DivisibleDuke: Don't join the shakedown and leave half-way through, if you think you can't finish the whole thing don't bother coming, thanks.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Sorry guys i didnt' know what i was getting myself into that was a beatdown, i thought i was gonna have some fun but u guys almost killede my buzz... not cool guys not cool... party on me, party on u. Holla fo adolla

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

let see:

Denkai: Dang man tiers are fucked up! Sarah sucks. That's all I gotta say.

Tony: I think of Tony as a train. If he gets choo-chooing its all over, so I gotta cut the juice. Locomotives can't accelerate rapidly anywho, so in a mirrored competitive environment, by the time your hitting 30mph and ready to wreck, its too late. I see your solidifying your defense, but its your offense that makes you broken. Take more initiative imo and exploit the system more. You're the only person that makes me feel 50/50 constantly when I'm on D. ALSO I noticed I couldn't run too many gimmicks, cuz I noticed you know Blaze.

Zyx: I think you should isolate yourself to playing higher tier players (the ones that still play) like Slide, Denkai, GT, and Dennis. These dudes will bypass gimmicks and solidify your game.

GT: Man, i was about to rob you. Goodshit. My blaze is random as hell man that was some nonsense. I might be rocking blaze for awhile. I never seen 1k into sabaki from pai before (weird). It kinda surprised me. I couldn't immediately find all the answers but we'll get back soon.

Siamak: Jeffry can really dish pain if he hits you right . Blaze has some of the shortest limbs on the planet, and Jeff has a natural edge over him in that department. I noticed when I'm fighting you that I tend to get into your head. Which is okay because it shows that you have conscious and want to avoid gettting hit. See if you can throw break when you get elbow staggered.

Jay: I remember playing you but I forgot you used Brad. I see you have competitve fuego... stay on the lookout for the gimmicks each character has, try to learn the answers to them.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Like I was sayin in the shoutbox just now, my bad for not joining this one.

Night of Champions was on, and I decided to work on my homework while it was on, now I'm back to finishing up too.

I'm free pts anyway.

EDIT: Yo Coz, I don't think I'm on the same level as Dennis, Lucky, and Denkai anymore man.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Man so much talent this time around! I may be losing my sweat for missing this one. Glad people got on, and got competitive. I had a meeting that went down last minute but as always KO or Numbers has my back so that's cool. (Hats off KO)

Next week same time. I also get to debut my new stick acumen.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Hey, I didn't think this was happening because no one posted after I did. Thanks for nothin'!!! JK Would've been awesome to play such a strong group of players.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Aye, the best way to find out if it's happen is look in the Shoutbox. In the past it was called the shoutbox shakedown because that's how we organized it. Generally, if I post up it IS going to happen even if I'm not the one running it. For future knowledge the three trustees are:

I WorstPlayer I
Kamais Ookin
VFNumbers

So come shakedown time hit one of the three!

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

I know this is a really late response, but I'm only just now seeing this. Look, I think you must have a really bad impression of how I fight because of the lag we have. I have good, close, back and forth sets of matches with all the players you listed above. Well, except Dennis, who doesn't like to play me online due to the lag (and our connection is at least twice as good as my connection to you). Also, with Denkai it really depends on who he picks. With some characters we have even matches, but others he just runs over me like a steamroller. He almost has me convinced I need to learn more characters to take my game to the top. If FS comes out on consoles I definitely will.

At any rate, my entire game depends on my ability to quickly react to what you're doing. With Eileen, you can't just throw out stuff that launches on counter-hit all day, and rely on the fact there is too much lag for people to block, let alone punish. She doesn't have any abusable low to high strings either. And some of her best damage requires strict timing or needs to be hit checked in order to avoid screwing yourself. But none of that even matters because in our matches the lag was so bad, I was literally incapable of defending against anything you were doing. Bottom line: Fix your connection before you decide to give me advice.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

I swear everytime someone talks about playing you, you blame everything on lag

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

There's really no such thing as abusable low-high strings. Your issue is that you never crouch so you find yourself getting 0f thrown or eating lows. You also dont bother varying stuff like 6p+kpp p3pk, or 6ppk. I can depend on you to throw out the whole string and punish it. Also you dont use 46k, so I dont have to worry about it. The only thing I have to look out for is DMPK. But im not really worried about that either.

EDIT: Assassin CP is also really good. My bad for missing him the first time

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

And feaucha. Dude is akira magic

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Yes, he is. I also play him and have good matches.

There are if I can neither react to and block the low, or push the high.

Lag! How many times do I need to tell you? The lag does not allow me to do these things when I'm playing you.

Yes I do. But when I play you the lag is so damn bad I'd have to buffer the whole mix-up in before I could even read how you reacted the the first move. Hence, I just gave up on trying.

Yes I do! I was trying to use it! The lag made it so your punches won before the move had even activated!

The DMPK was just a desperation thing because your attacks kept beating me after I pressed evade. The only reason I normally use that move is because it's Eileen's only circular mid.

Look, I don't know what I have to say to get this through to you. You lag. You lag worse that a lot of players I've played from Europe and Japan. Worse yet, the lag is uneven, and randomly changes, so I can't adapt. Not only that, but it seems to affect you less that the person you are playing (maybe because you are so used to it?), so you are apparently completely oblivious to the handicap the people you play online have to deal with. I even recorded a video to demonstrate the lag that I had to deal with, and you didn't want to watch it! So I said to myself, fine, I'm just not going to play you online anymore unless I have to. But then after telling you about how lag makes it impossible for me to play you at least hundred times, you still have the nerve to try to tell me things I already know about how to play? Unbelievable.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

You do understand you can beat any high/low "mixup" by simply crouching and blocking, right?

Just sayin'

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Lol, I have less lag with him than almost any other player online. Why don't you ask him what he thinks of your advice for me?

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

fixexexed!!

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

hmmm I must say there are some low-highs strings that are very hard to deal with when there is lag like Pai/lau's 1k,k. I see that move thrown out soooo much online and most of the time I can't duck the high or sabaki it online. It can be very frustrating. Also Jacky’s k+g, 2k+g. stupid easy move to spot but lag makes it hard to block. Just sayin....
Although i don't remember playing xyz, I must admit I've had more then usual lag issues with cozby when he use to play me. I don't know if that's still the case with his connection but it sounds like xyz has some merit to what he is saying.

Oh and when is the next shakedown? I can finally join one if they are any the next few weds.

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

I wish those players who abuse low-high string could actually realize how risky it is

 

Re: Shakedown Online Beatdown: Post fight discussi

Low highs dont combo on normal hit.

Someone please write this somewhere.

Tee is mad cuz I body him. Just like zyx.
