The forums are back!

The MTL Airdashers gang always do solid work with setting up tournaments like UMAD, every single time I've been there it's been a great experience and the venue is excellent. People come from all over to run brackets for their game for a good reason.   Looking forward to showing up for another year!

It depends on the matchup. For a character like Bedman or Leo that can have trouble getting close to you, zoning is viable. For the majority of the roster though, either they have varied enough movement (May has a ton of options to approach at variable timings, Chipp is Chipp), strong counterpoking options (Johnny can get a guaranteed K Mist Finer upon blocking ice spike if he is in range, Happy Chaos is Happy Chaos), or simply have such high reward when they do get in that it's a gamble to try and keep them out. You would be better off taking advantage of your knockdown just because of how massive the reward is if the opponent guesses wrong. If you do feel like you want to zone, the most important use of meter for you to learn is arguably 214S 66FRRC 23[6S/H]. Any poke, including normal hit 6P, can send the opponent fullscreen into a freeze off of this. With microdash 214H after, this oftentimes even leads to a wallbreak to let you loop resources. Super super super strong, definitely worth incorporating and can also lead into the aforementioned IAD j.H lc 2K > 2D stuff.   Dizzy's post-stage shift options are actually quite strong in this scenario, but even if they weren't, her mixups are fully meterless. Sucessfully performing them will generate enough meter to always super wallbreak, and in many cases will also let you close out the round with Gamma Ray.

it is so wonderful and exciting. it would be so dope if they did smth similar for the switch version of cf ngl but it seems like cool ports like that were left in the early/mid aughts; wiimote inputs are a different kind and so its theoretically possible to do things with eddie iirc in that game u cant do on normal inputs but we did not lab enough to find out if it was practical or even feasible

I have also been made aware that hood college out in frederick runs locals on sundays during the semester under the name "blazer bash" on startgg but they don't seem to have a slug
