I can see this being an even matchup honestly. Jin getting IB'd makes it pretty easy to poke out of some things with 5/2A and one of Jin's best pressure moves, his 6B I would guess can be beaten by Valk's 6A(Haven't tested yet but it should at least work on IB) Also Valks' pressure is rock solid himself. Yeah its easy to IB but his moves are generally safe even on IB. 6B and 6C are +8 and +6 respectively which means you can't IB>DP with 623D which hinders Jin a bit. Also worth noting that Valk can bait DPs with his Wolf Dash. EX: Valk can do a basic blockstring of 5B>5C>236A which is +2 on block, -3 on IB. Valk can Wolf Cancel his 236A by going 4/5/7/9D. His 4D and 7D versions have invul frames during his backflip for the purpose of baiting DPs. So if he feels Jin might be getting antsy, he can cancel into 4D and bait a 623A/B and punish for around 5.5k with meter. So you do have to be careful not to spam shit or you will die for it. Also just so its known, his 4/7C dashes while in Wolf Form have the same invul as the Wolf Cancels. One last little thing to keep in mind, Valk's Astral is a legit DP so while its rare, do pay attention to resets when the opportunity he can astral you occurs.

When blocking against Valk, you HAVE to watch when you try and IB>Poke or whatever out of pressure, some of his best stuff is the slowest. For instance, his 6B is +8 on block so on IB, you HAVE to keep blocking! 6C is +6 but easy to read so if you IB just watch for Wolf cancels as he can Kara Cancel it as well for extra shenanigans. Also in case no one knows, it may not LOOK like one, but his best launcher, 236C IS an overhead! If he hit confirms it well, he can cap out at about 5.5k from it so be careful. Low profile is gonna be your best friend for this as it should go under everything except 2B, 2C(point blank), 3C and 236A/B. Also watch how you bait his wolf dashes. If he cancels into wolf form with 4/7D or he just does [w]4/7C, the little back flip he does has invul frames on it so he can actually bait out some moves very well. One other random thing to note, depending on his spacing, some general things won't combo such as 5B>5C>236A won't combo at max 5C range so just something to keep in mind that spacing of his normals can very much vary his combo abilities. Best place to be is somewhere just out of Valk's 5B range so you can make him commit to some slower normals and punish from there.

Hey I'm all in favor of supporting those who help out the community. So the Club is more than welcome to charge me a few bucks for a nice venue space and some cold drinks and snacks. You guys are a long shot from hotel meeting rooms with $100 per hour price tags so I'm in no position to argue Plus the title thing was mainly sarcastic but I'm tired as shit so I can't write sarcasm in my usual witty mind set I seriously have the highest amount of respect for you guys as even though you had recent theft issues in the past, you're STILL willing to put trust in 60 some-odd random strangers to come in and make use of your space for little to no money. You have no idea how awesome it is to have that kind of accessibility to a large space without everyone going broke in an hour. I'm more than willing to pay a bit extra if it goes to helping out. So do me a biggie and throw some A&W root beer in the fridge and you'll probably make $10 off me:yaaay: Also Rin, PLEASE tell me you got at least SOME of my Valk demos recorded! I don't mind if they don't go up right away, but I'd at least like it to be known that I'm the best Valk in CA :3 AND I PLAN TO KEEP IT THAT WAY! I don't even have PS3 and I'm busting out 5-6k combos off of semi strange hit confirms

For the scheduling, consistency is 1000% more effective in this matter as it allows consistent scheduling outside of sad life for those who have school and jobs. But in retrospect, the CS Club IS the final say in the matter so in all honesty, we can't argue over it. Reasoning over it, fair game but if it just can't be done, then it can't be done and we will just need to wait till the next available date. the fact that we get this venue for bottom dollar is fucking GODLIKE. Although I have to say, I'm not in favor of the title of "liability-inducing nerd gathering..." Its FREE money, and the first rule of business is don't piss off the people who are paying you. But again, respect is very much due for those in CS club who let us in and have our fun. So in short, consistency should be prioritized but if the situation presents itself, change the date to something close to it(But ALWAYS at a later date so people can reschedule accordingly) Also Rin, I'm with Scott about you not NEEDING to be at all the ranbats. We appreciate the effort but shit, you're only human, don't be superman and try to balance everything within here and 1000 miles. Remember to pick your battles or you'll lose the whole war :3

Nov. 13th...Ok got it! If Valk isn't out on 360 by then, I'm gonna have to kill a bitch for their PS3 so I can learn him more :3

Nov. 6th would work although check with Rin about him making it if you guys want streaming again as I believe it was mentioned a while back Rin and Dacid were thinking of possibly traveling up to PNW for a Tourney. Don't remember how solid that plan was BUT definitely something to consider since the BBVlog is all run by the one and only RinHara5alty :3

He cancelled his 6C into [w]4C which has invul on startup of the DASH, not the transformation. I've confirmed that Wolf Dash is invul on startup. Its Valks way of baiting DPs and it also lends logic as to why 2 of his challenges start with [w]C>j.B>5B as it means that if you bait the DP with say [w]4C, the DP whiffs while Valk is spinning back and then you dash straight and can go into j.B>5B combos from there. Should only work for the backdashes though(4C and 7C) as his 5C, 9C and 2C all just start without his little spin. So this is good for shenanigans like bait DPs, or if you scare them with it, walk up Command Throw etc...

Ok FROM NOW ON, someone fucking write down the names and the order of the stream matches so we don't have to play "guess the unknowns"

Do you not see the irony in that??? You haven't said one constructive thing yet...and you give HIM shit for it? Wheres the common sense?

In this case, its not so much arguing as some guy just yelling "Come on, let the retards figure out how to stream their shit game and lets go eat!" Had there been a valid point in the statement, MAYBE things would be different...

I love how you "don't care" yet you still are oh so actively involved in planning some of this stuff even though its rather passive :3

If you're ever by SVGL on a Wednesday, go then. Me and Dacidbro are almost ALWAYS there sometime around like 6 or 7 just to mess around in casuals. look for the infamous baby blue Bang and the loud guy mashing Tager :3

The guy that played against Dacid was named Mike...Don't remember if he had a handle or not. Shout outs to Chun for the hype venue! Shout outs to Rin and Tsubasa for hype stream setups! Shout outs to Rod for being one of the best motherfuckers of Earth!! Shout outs to 1000DollaSocks for being so FREE! 5-1 baby! Shout outs to Dacid for the ride and taking all my smack talk in stride! Shout outs to Vineeth and Filip and Kelvin and Willy for improving a shit ton since last time! You guys ain't free no more :3 Shout outs to Salty Juice for hour long combos! Shout outs to Dabbit for beastin the finals! Shout outs to Qwerty for bein a nigga! Shout outs to Nate for randomly leaving! Stay free big man! Good fucking shit NorCal! See you all next time! Hopefully I'll have Valk primed and ready to kick all your fucking asses!!

No no, stream is still going on today. There was a mixup with one of the guys who would've been doing the stream as he was going to be doing ANOTHER stream the same time as ours. So we were gonna split the time, now that that is fixed, GG/BB/MB streams will be going on all day at the same times they normally were.

Assuming all goes well, Me and Dacid should be there around 230. Get ready to be free, bitches :3

Dude...This went from drama scene to fantasy porn flick in about 5 posts...WHAT THE FUCK?!

Yeah I'm like 1000% in agreement with this...What the hell ever happened to cellphones being used for this kind of thing???

150 heat combo?? Lemme guess...BK combo?!?!? I'm mildly hype for this. We should have a hype combo MM! See who can hype up the crowd more

Woah Salty man, creative is almost NEVER going to be practical, its meant to be flashy! Plus thats an extremely retarded combo, you can do silly shit off of normal combos too: CH 5D>dc>6C>dc>5D>dc>6A>SJC>j.C>dj.C>BE>3C>5D(1)>HF>follow up...Practical and it has some flair to it but it doesn't maximize the flashy factor Ragna has. Actually...You could probably cancel the 6C into BK and work a combo from that...Hmmm...Interesting. But tone down the seriousness Scott, Flashy = Fun so make it fucking retarded! It makes the game more fun looking when you can do stupid shit like that

Scott, tag me in for something creative. Its amazing how many stupid things you can do with Ragna. For instance! Midscreen: 5B>2C>C ID>RC>SJ>j.C>j.D>dj.C>C ID>Upper>Axe Kick>RC>C ID>Upper>Punch Not to mention I've got the hottest throw combos on Earth!! DO IT SALTY JUICE :3 Also Rin, if you need a BASIC BnB for Tsubaki and NO ONE else can do it, I know a couple generic combos and I could probably BS together the unblockable combo in like 10 minutes

Actually an odd thing, I haven't gone back to my friend's house to test it more but I believe Wolf form's Dash has invul frames. Particularly doing 4C or 7C as my friend was playing Ragna and he whiffed a 6A as I was in dash start up...Needs to be confirmed though as I never got the chance to look into it further. If it is true then zoners will actually have an insanely hard time keeping him out.

:vbang::vbang::vbang::vbang::vbang::vbang::vbang::vbang: That was TERRIBLE
