Toronto BB and GG: FIENDS ONLY Part II

[Seifuuku]

you should learn jin

[Roldy]

Seriously? Jin is the 2nd most used character in Toronto? There's poiyo and me, as Jin mains. Then there's Linear and K2 who sub Jin (Linear is arguable).

4 people...now that I think about it, yeah, Jin is the 2nd most used character...

Most used is obviously the Tager Rangers. Next most used character after Jin is...Lambda? Akuun, Ryan, and Tim.

Edit: Linear, do you even have a main?

[Linear04]

ya its jin lol

just trying out new chars atm, i can't play other people as nearly as well as i can with jin just because of time spent with him, and because hes the most basic character in the game

[archling]

Jin is now my main.

[Linear04]

yessss

everyone go the ez tier that isnt tager

[poiyo]

Still it's not like Jin is used by 1/3rd of the T11 participants...

Need a sub though =.=

Just wanted to something to this critique of how to appeal to an audience. So far, everyone has been spot on, encouraging interaction of new players with high level players IRL will most definitely be a good way to spread the scene. BUT one thing people NEED to keep in mind is that not only does the level of play matter, the variety of play matters!! You can't have people hyped up over something like BB when a ranbat has 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Tagers and 1 Bang, 1 Ragna, 1 Litchi and 1 Jin. We need players to be willing in more casual play to show some of the newer players the mechanics of not just the games, but the characters themselves! The Clocktower Tourney last Saturday is a prime example. It was a good tourney but there were about 20 people who entered and literally 10 of them were Tager players! Even in casuals there were nothing but Tagers! I purposely played other characters for the sake of showing other characters. I actually had a few of the SF guys talking to me about the game and they liked the variety of characters in the game as I was showing them and they actually got more interested in it as opposed to when it started when everyone was just sitting there going "Why the fuck are there so many TAGERS?!?!?!?"

So one thing we need to encourage in the casual settings are a wide variety of characters being showcased to those who are new to it so we can actually let them see how it works before they dive in.

Just my 2 cents, felt like throwing it out there.

From this post

lolol, so relevant to our community.

[archling]

dunno, I think our community has a pretty good representation. All the players worth playing are playing different chars =).. That's right. I'm looking at you, Tager scrubs. Not worth it. Go get some self respect.

[Roldy]

Just have Pui do a one man showcase. He can play anyone decently.

Edit: Do we really need representation for Bang and Litchi?

[Fiedrik]

lol I need to learn some hakumen for a new sub. Even though he`s top tier, hardly anyone uses him lol.

[mr.mortified]

I just finished halo reach.

Man what an epic game.

fuck yeah we're in reach hype now

although i only got the fkn game like 4 hours ago

[poiyo]

Caruru!

Two characters to control on screen *brain explodes*

who else do you know how to play on a basic level poiyo

How basic is basic XD? I know some CT Taokaka (not a fan of taunt loop however) and picked up some Rachel from Julien (lol). Getting bored of playing just one character lately.

[Tofu Warrior]

Someone tell the boss that SSF4: Arcade Edition will be released in December. Oh yeah and tell him it'll cost $23 000 USD for a set of 4, kthx. Apparently Capcom only sold their SF4 cabs in sets of 4, but I'm sure the boss will be able to get one board from Hong Kong like he did with vanilla back in the day. Hopefully that'll convince him to keep the doors open.

lol I need to learn some hakumen for a new sub. Even though he`s top tier, hardly anyone uses him lol.

I picked him up recently and got all of his combos down fairly consistently, including a few death combos off that 8 mag super lol. He's my new main, Tager's officially been demoted to sub status; I've only been playing him since before CT console release, so we'll see if I actually know how to play this game lol.

[unsanctifier]

I main makoto, sadly she isn't at the arcade. So I play Rachael at the arcades, not so much play, but give free wins with. Though I actually got my 360 from my friend this week and played a lot of online!

Anyone going on Thursday?

[Freezerburn]

I main Bang but I'm still stuck in CT. I miss my easy 3/4 seal into FRKZ. Now I just play a mediocre scammer.

Thursdays? Maybe at 10pm but no one is ever there then.

[Luckee]

... moyashimon needs more love @___@

You said 10pm last time and didn't show! :P

I'm going to be there for sure this Thursday, (GF is busy with school, that's why it is guaranteed xD)

[Tofu Warrior]

Girlfriends have a nasty habit of cutting into LG time. :razz: I might reach on Thursday, but I have an 8 am class the next day, so we'll see.

[Zeero]

NOT EVEN K2 CAN USE JIN, U ALL GONNA FAIL!

K2 is the only one who can't use Jin really...

[Leo7]

Anyone watch the D-1 SBO GGAC vids yesterday?

LOL @ Shounen double perfecting MINT. That is all.

[Zeero]

MINT is garbage when compared to SHOUNEN
