BLAZBLUE CS:EX @ ZERO PING

SATURDAY 4/21 @ 7PM

FEATURING:

DC: The eighth wonder space hunter. This Noel enthusiast that will rush your shit down faster than than you could possibly shit your pants. Will not hesitate to zone you with Optic Barrel.

Juggernaut: The king of shotos and all things main character. Ragna player who've brief stints with Jin have resulted in many of his combos turning ice cold blue.

Wilde: The blackest man on earth. Let's just say he Bangs bitches hard both in and out of Blazblue.

Mystic: The stone wall Negrodamus. A discombobulatingly devastating Valkenhayn player with a nearly impeccable defense and the look on his face of the angriest black man on Earth.

Skane: The poor man's Bang. South Florida's other Bang player with a curiously worn out D button and an empty wallet.

2Link: The young gun. The newest player on the scene, when 2Link is not dropping combos with Tsubaki, he enjoys long walks on the beach and pictures of Rosalina.

WITH POSSIBLE GUEST APPEARANCES BY:

Flash: That other tall black guy! Sporting half of FlashMetroid's name and about 1/40th of his skill level, this washed up CT Nu and CS2 Makoto doesn't quite know what to do without the best character in the game.

Sylvano?!: The ostentatiously fashionable Asian persuasion. Though his appearances are few and far between, his young and upcoming Hazama is often seen sleeping on one of ZP's chairs.

ALSO... ONE DOLLAR TOURNAMENT! GET HYPE.

Well DC, I have to say that I'm touched.

Not really; Mixup is there (marvel), but the GG scene in FL is all but dead. Trying to revive it a bit here in Tampa, but everyone is playing crapcom/BB atm. It won't matter b/c come summer, AC will be on PSN/Xbox Live ^^

So Miami is for sure gonna be at CEO de Mayo?

that is unfortunate that pensacola is so far away from everyone posting here (especially me... i love to have another person to play in gg :<)

[qwerty]

I'll find my way to a gathering/tournament at some point, I'm sure. Just a matter of finding out where and when.

[DC]

Bet money GG is still dead after this summer.

[2link121]

Eh, I'll still buy it.

[Lord Cruxis]

Man todays meet up was fucking great. Lots of salt too lol

[DC]

As expected, SFL is a bunch of bad players.

I suppose wilde is technically the best player but that's not really saying much. alain + tony + skane + me all the same skill level, which is average at best. we all just take turns beating each other.

I was considering buying the game/practicing but I figure it'll be dead after CEO. On to P4U!

I don't know man. I didn't get off the whole match thing until I had to leave. Still it was a lot of fun lol. And DC have a little more faith in your skill, we are way above average. Not pro like the japs, but we would be in top 8 kind of junk. As long as we keep practicing ofcourse.

Remember how hyped up people were about 3rd Strike Online Edition ... who plays it anymore today ? :p

Depending on when in the summer it comes out I think will determine its life span I think Persona 4 Arena will definitely be the game players will be on when it comes out, I can see GG replacing BB until its direct sequel comes out but there's also the possibility of veteran players overwhelming those new to the game and discouraging them to even try.

Just my thoughts, I'm going to shut up now.

I'm worried about that too... GG has been around forever, and it seems like everyone but me knows how to play it. I'm worried I'm gonna get my ass kicked when I get on the first day.

[DC]

Some people will play it. The game is neither accessible nor particularly fun for new players, there will be no "revival." There might be a setup or two at casuals until someone says "hey, let's play P4U now"

People will play it over the summer, then they'll stop. It will fall into obscurity again.

Calling it.

Your always gonna get your ass kicked, that's how you get better. I was playing Adonis yesterday with my day one Testament and lost 30 rounds in a row, but I learned so much and kept on making adjustments. I feel like people are gonna play GG like BB and its not like that at all.

Last night was fun! and those Miami clowns better come so they can get glittered =3

Sorry dude, but I disagree. I didn't start /really/ improving until I took my hundreds of losses against good players to fights against players closer to my level and worked out better play methods there. Fighting against great players is a good way to discover errors in your playstyle, but it's not a good place to fix them. Good habit is best formed in a place where it won't be interrupted by someone blowing you up constantly.

#OLDMANSWAG@100%:

This is the problem with everyone getting into games post SF4. Nearly everything that came out before SF4 had actual execution requirements, and minimal to non-existant comeback factors. You couldn't just pick up a character and be good with them in a week. You actually had to guess, learn match ups, and not require crutches to win. If you got your ass beat, YOU GOT YOUR ASS BEAT. But that's how you learned the game. That's how you got better. That's how execution shot through the roof. Jwong, clockwork, daigo, and every other top player you can think of did not become that way overnight. They sustained over 100,000 ass beatings, and kept right on moving, getting better.

Today's competitive gamer has been spoiled rotten. GGAC won't get the proper revival it deserves here because 1)Americans are fucking lazy, 2)There is no comeback mechanic in the game. You have to THINK to win, 3)Like DC said, newbs will get pissed on the first month of the game's release, then instead of trying to learn match ups and characters properly, they'll just run to another game that allows them to mash buttons and win, and 4) AMERICANS ARE FUCKING LAZY. The games that come out nowadays all too often give rewards that the lesser player doesn't deserve.

DC: GGAC is very accessible; DL is an excellent library of information related to that game, and Japan plays that game hardcore to this very day. It's training mode is arguably the best to date, and with online play people will get all the match up experience they need. If someone sucks at GG, it's most likely b/c they can't execute properly to play it, or they totally new to it.

It's really a shame that more people won't play older, more execution intensive games (FUC, GGAC, 3s, MvC2, etc); playing those games will cause your execution in other games to shoot through the roof. If you can block Millia/Magneto, then you can block anything that has come out to date.
