[Nedel_3773]

Thank you so much for the good time yesterday everyone! I promise my mindset will be more appropriate in the near future, then I can be on top of my game again.

Shoutouts to Kirbster. I can't ever seem to best you, I will need much more training with you for summerjam!

Shoutouts to Brice for awesome (and less awesome) matches. Hype ranbat beginning was hype.

Shoutouts to Bibi for dat peer pressure. It was worth it : D

Shoutouts to Pedro for fraudulent matches. Next time, let's get really warmed up before we play so you can best me!

Big shoutout to Kaeru. Thank you so much for being there for me. It was greatly appreciated. Next time though, we shall press buttons together!

Last shoutout goes to sleep. You shall be missed.

Also this. Brice is probably rank 5.

This is guy is pretty far out in left field, but i think he is also the product of poor sportsmanship amongst fighters. It's one thing i am very proud of in Montreal; we have salt, we have rivalry, but there is always good spirit and a certain level of basic respect towards one another. I am happy to get in the face of anyone who tries to publicly belittle another for not being great at a game. This guy has the wrong idea about the fighting game community, the wrong idea about players who strive to be the best, the wrong idea about tournaments, the wrong idea about the high we get when we fight. It's a damn shame this is what some people think of us.

Edit: i just wanted to take the opportunity while it's more or less on topic with this to mention 2 things that are food for thought.

1. Without your opponent, there is no game to play.

2. Everyone is a product of their community. If players help their community get stronger by sharing and practicing, that community breeds better players as a whole, which makes the community stronger again and the players even stronger.

People who are secretive and don't help their community at all may often bask in the glory of winning in their hometown, but they can be damn sure somewhere there are people who know exactly how to beat them. In the end you're better off teaching other people how to beat your shit so you can learn to better deal with that. You'll be far better prepared for when you fight people who already know.

Hmm... All I can say is "poor guy". He'll never get to experience what we do in top play. Darn shame because that's where all the fun is.

And damn straight, Kaeru! I agree with all you said. If we work as a community it's simply a better overall experience, and maybe that's why we're so gdlk. :D

Btw, what's your cell # if you have one? Or are PMs better? We're planning a bike ride this Sunday and it would be awesome to have you!! :D

[Roldy]

zeero clearly has a thing for balls

Loves balls but hates Venom. Paradox?

[TD]

he contradicted himself numerous times. his rant is nothing more than stupidity gone wild. such an untamed, pitiful creature desperately crying for discipline.

[Zeero]

so when is someone going to teach your community how to tech purple throws?

[Bibiquadium]

Purple throws are legit, online.

[kaeru]

so when is someone going to teach your community how to tech purple throws?

Only you can do this for us, Zeero, come and show us the way !

[kr3wman]

purple throws are in the game, so its a valid tactic, just like 'Destroy' moves.

[BladeOfJustice7]

Wait, tell me you guys have actually figured it out who wrote all those blogs and are just withholding his name to be nice.

^This. This. This.

I wish the North American FGC would be more willing to provide advice to one another to help the weaker players improve. I find we're too concerned with winning tourney money, and it's why it takes us longer to level up. But I have seen exceptions to this with certain players.

[kr3wman]

its been only one day since I found the link and I dont even remember how I did.

but they do. besides, how is winning tourney money not a legit goal to want to reach?

[Rhannmah]

Money fucks up everything.

EVERYTHING.

You know, every problem in the world, yeah, it's because of that.

[BladeOfJustice7]

Not from my view, going from being bodied by people 10-0 by people to bodying people myself. I've never really seen advise being given to weaker players. If I had to sue someone as a template it would have to be kaeru, since I thank him for giving me the proper method making my inputs more accurate.

I'm not against wanting to win tourney money but, sitting there silently as you wreck someone so that you don't help someone break through your tactics? That's what I don't like, maybe things have changed and I'm just ignorant of it but, I don't see it as a common trait among strong players like kaeru.

@rhannmah, money and women fuck everything up. It's been scientifically proven for years.

[TD]

oh yeah, l see what you mean now.

the thing about giving advice is, the other person has to want it. also, there can be multiple reasons why a person doesn't give it: they could have have had bad experience with giving it like not saying it right, or not knowing what to say at all that conveys what they're thinking. going off of my first point, they could have given it, and the other person may view it as 'charity' or something similar (and not like it: l had this personally happen to me after giving unasked-for, legit advice), or just letting it go in one ear and out the other. they could just be a dick, i'm not ruling that out.

tl;dr where l grew up, if people want something, they have to ask. there is no shame or harm in it if you want and need help. from what l usually see, pro players usually do give advice and alot of the time it gets ignored, and then it's like deja vu when the player has the SAME problem down the line (see:psn ggs thread).

[sinder]

^ you cant bring netplay into discussion, its all herp

anyway, advice does go through the NA fighting game community, and there are A LOT more nice players willing to give it than tthere are assholes who want to hold the advice from the other player for some screwed up sadistic reason

honestly, it's the new player mentality that is the problem. most noobs are afraid of a challenge, and by that i mean they alway avoid everything except for winning when it comes to playing, and they dont want to learn new tech because "its too hard"

most new players or "bad" players do not focus on their own mistakes, and get angry when that mistake causes them to lose, and then they dont ask for help because they feel as if their opponent thinks they're a joke so why should they bother

again, i just think people who have the most trouble with fighting games just want to rush and get better, instead of taking the time to learn from others

if this made no sense to you whatsoever, just know that im tired but i wanted to post something about this topic
