DJ_Blactricity Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Henjin I'll play you a little drunk though so I may fall asleep randomly. I've read over the last few pages out of sheer boredom. Errol your full of yourself. I've played you, and I know you claim lag as your excuse for losing(though I disagree). Your not a good rachel in my opinion. You try to thrive off your character's strengths, but lack the fundamentals to do so Blaming losses on lag is stupid. It's disrespectful to your opponent who outplayed you under the same conditions whether you believe it or not. Especially when its a good connection for online. Blaming a loss on execution is dumb as well even if you could've killed the opponent. It simply means you didn't practice/grind enough and you need to work harder. Character difficulty/execution is irrevelant because characters with difficult execution have a tendency to not have to work as hard as a charcter with simple execution(I've seen both sides as a former valk player and jin main.). Players execute well even online. TD always executes. No matter how much I wish for him to drop combos.
Henjin Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Albions room needs a 2bar or greater to enter.... After constant refreshing rooms mashing refresh button i finally hit a 2bar. Success, yo.
Dawn of Musou Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 All that talk about matchups and stuff actually really inspired me for some reason, to the point where I wanna go all-out. Â Anyone wanna play either later today or even now maybe?

Dawn of Musou Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Nah it's cool, thought about it and I realized I'm kinda tired, it wouldn't be "all-out" if I was tired lol. Â Tomorrow I'm down tho.
TD Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Um I'm not sure what went wrong in here and at what point lol, but everyone seemed to have chilled out. That's good. I don't really want to get too much into to this right now because work, but I will say one thing, Errol. Adaptability is a thing. If you lost a match, chances are, it was not just simple execution mistakes more than it would be, it could be a ton of other reasons you lost. Just because rachel has bottom tier defense doesn't mean catching her with her dress down is gg. It's not over until it's over. It may be true that under some conditions Tager and haku can do brutal damage, but they need so much time to execute, time you gave them by doing other things. They may get out of your oki, because they simply guessed right not because you guessed wrong (this is one and the same, but technically you can do a mixup you've never done before and they still block first time, meaning they blocked right more or less) Might just know Errol might jump here in neutral, let me just air grab him real quick. You're playing a game with another human, the supposed alpha species on this planet, they just have to be thinking of ways to beat you, just as you are vs them. Anyway I'm not coming at you, I think you are good considering you started playing rachel not too long ago (has it been a year now?). Do I think you could stand to make less "mistakes"? That's always going to be there, you can't just not make mistakes, they are always around the corner, even when they shouldn't be. It's about identifying them correctly though. I hope that makes sense. Glad you guys like the write up, I loved writing it, so if anyone has any requests...?
DJ_Blactricity Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Do 1 big neutral writeup or jin vs rachel? Play a set with me too.
TD Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 On it. Games wise, I no longer own a PS3, only ps4, and playstation now streams bbcp, which is laggy but I will try one day. My sis has my PS3 so maybe I will hop on after work if she isnt home. Also, howling-_-moon has been deleted because yahoo doesn't want to give me my email back, so there's that...
DJ_Blactricity Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Alright. You know you can make a new email, call sony, and they'll transfer your account to the new email especially if you made purchases from the store.
Dawn of Musou Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 If Blactricity vs TD is happening I wanna be there to see it.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I can't wait to see how I play when I make my inevitable return :V
Nemesis Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Â Errol your full of yourself. I've played you, and I know you claim lag as your excuse for losing(though I disagree). Actually I Think Ima need to disagree with this one - personally speaking that is. Ive never known him to claim lag excuses for any of our games... And Ive always thought of errol as a pretty good rachel~

And Ive always thought of errol as a pretty good rachel~ There is no one who pulls a better lag excuse than xxGARYmfOAKxx. Beasty ass ragna player who call bs on his loss. Man, me pickin up mu showed me how much of a rage matic he really was.(not that much) Oh those were the days
abadlime Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Stayfree, if you're still here, i would've loved to play you but i promised a set with someone before i leave for work.  We can play another time…past midnight.

Man, me pickin up mu showed me how much of a rage matic he really was.(not that much) Oh those were the days I remember that scrub - yea he raged alot and always ALWAYS had an excuse for his losses  remember how he was the self proclaimed "Best Ragna player on Netplay" ?
Henjin Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I remember that scrub - yea he raged alot and always ALWAYS had an excuse for his losses remember how he was the self proclaimed "Best Ragna player on Netplay" ? Yep. All high and mighty when he wins.. but if he lose, his ego gets higher in denial.
Nemesis Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Yep. All high and mighty when he wins.. but if he lose, his ego gets higher in denial. That is a strangely common phenomena I never understood... No matter how you beat someone down they still act and talk like they are so much better... lol  Like I seriously understand becoming competitive from losses and saying/thinking things like "I WILL beat that guy - Ill run him into the dirt! ((someday))" but those other mental gymnastics are just too much for me to conceptualize I guess..
TD Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 It's a defense mechanism. These sorts of people have had traumatic experiences in their lives that reinforces the notion that losing means they somehow are inadequate. These deep feelings of despair is bound to change a persons character. One could say they fear losing, in an unhealthy, irrational sense. They aren't dragging you to their level entirely on purpose, and chances are unless you show empathy and understanding toward them, you will not get anywhere trying to help these sorts of people. No one is home, so I can use the 3. Anyone playing?

Ill be on if you want to hash some games out(granted we can connect) Â But Ive rarely ever come into contact with someone who will listen to any sort of reason (before or after the fact) when they are in the habit of allowing themselves to blow up and lose control of their emotions. Traumatic experiences or not
Dark Ranger88 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Â Glad you guys like the write up, I loved writing it, so if anyone has any requests...? Â Do Neutral in the Makoto vs Rachel matchup. Good Rachels seem to completely shit on me. Â Ya can't run past, slide under, or jump over a winded Lobelia. But respect Lobelias too much and it leads to Pumpkin Get > Unstoppable approach. Â Â Edit: And about this whole bad attitude rage thing. It all depends on the character you use. Playing as Makoto...I NEVER, EVER, EVER get ragemail or any kind of bad attitude at all. Even when I destroy people and astral them etc. Even if I do taunt combos people still don't get mad, they congratulate me. Â Back when I used to play Ragna and Plat though I got it every now and then. Also I messed around with Bullet for a couple of weeks and got tons of hatemail. I think the people that send this kind of stuff like "You are trash etc." Feel like they lost to the character's BS and lag rather than your skill.
Nemesis Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Â Good Rachels seem to completely shit on me. How can you be a makoto main and not "Enjoy Gravity"
