Can you confirm you're still coming, Rigel? 8:45 fine to leave? I can't really tell if Dustloop is sending my PM's, and you were saying your phone situation was iffy.

Ok, I'll watch my phone.

Oh and... can you bring along TE screws? :)

Got them right on my desk here, so I shouldn't forget this time.

6428C - That means all's green. I'm off to a wedding. See you guys tomorrow morning.

My bad, didn't realize you couldn't check PMs. I'm definitely still in. I've been sick for the past few days, that's why I disappeared. I'm feeling much better today, though. The times from your PM are fine, too.

Man that was a blast. MTL is free at Guilty Gear random-select Team Vs. Now to celebrate Canada Day by sleeping in past noon.

Practicing combos on A.b.a. makes me sad. A.b.a. is just too... strange. Any plans for GG casuals this week?

Yeah, she's a pretty heavy homunculus for how skinny her hurtbox is. I at least don't feel so bad sacrificing some damage for a knockdown when I touch her out of the hope of getting that damage back should her meter run out. I can understand it boiling down to your May having to land more hits than some other matches though.

No word yet about casuals. You willing to host again, @Rigel, if we can't get our fix at HQ?

EDIT: We might be able to even get a third setup to Rigel's place, courtesy of Matt. The setups would outnumber the seats!

I vote Saturday afternoon, which will let me bring in Matt's Xbox in addition to mine. We'll just have to make sure we have enough controllers (and chairs).

Rigel you sly dog. So I guess I should pick up GG. Who annoys you the most? Know any good beginner engine tutorials?

Klaige is actually just starting to put out some great content for beginners. In the last few weeks he's recorded a GG Basics 101 video and a Character Play Styles video.

Check out all the Guilty Bits episodes too. They're about half-way done summarizing the cast, with a new episode coming out each week or so.

You might like Testament for a few superficial similarities to Arakune (curse state, quick overhead starter, crazy ground projectile), but he's getting changed a lot in the next patch. I'm probably just suggesting him because I want experience in that matchup though. He's been top-tier for years, but no one plays him.

Cool. Hey Devin, do you have a MB setup for your place? I actually don't really have one here and it would be cool to get some MB in again. Also looking forward to potentially some BB!

Posted

My desktop has MB. I'll consider moving it for Saturday to somewhere that there'd be room for two people to sit and play a game. There's definitely not space in my room.

i can do a quick-and-dirty testament strings tutorial. the only technical things you want to start out are tk badlands and the FRC on EXE beast, both of which are pretty easy.

his defence sucks but once you learn his zoning he's the most obnoxious character in the game

Speaking of, I've been grinding characters I can't play so I can master the Random Team Vs. format

holy shit scott how do you do anything with i-no ever

Practice, research, and meticulous record-keeping to keep track of all the character-specific stuff. I'll show you my maze of notes some day. :eng101:

Hmm, Testament would a great choice but I still say you should play Baiken. I believe she got nerfed in +R, though.

Seriously, he made me notes on how to do Millia's BnB on every character. I was super impressed, never actually learned any of it and just get mad whenever it doesn't land.

Squiggly IS neat. Gotta rework my BnB on her though. Thankfully I wasn't using Fortune's s.HK as a launcher because that got flat-out replaced by a new move when she has her head! She freaking breakdances now!

EDIT: Ooo, and that new s.HK makes it easier to extend my combo! Not that it matters because the IPS change now means that the Cerebella-portion of the combo doesn't get to go very far.

You'll be happy to hear, Johnny, that I also have to jump higher if I want my triple overhead. Means it'll start up slower, and she'll take more execution with her head-on. (Head-off, it's just as easy as mashing up+LP+MP > LK > MK.)

Did a snapback on Fortune knock her head off before? Because that seems to be a thing now.

Haven't actually tried anything much (didn't even plug a stick in) but Squigly may be the most hilarious assist ever so far.

Nope, it's a new feature.

Which one? The screen-centring move? Maybe I'm wrong but it just seems like a ghetto version of magneto's attraction that only works when the opponent is full-screen.

Peacock + Mic assist = Havoc

It would be ghetto if Mags had attraction as an assist, instead it's a revolution! =p
