Mystic d

yup. along with all the other tournaments. i'm wondering what the turnout will be

Should've pumped the Initial D music and outran the cop

Likewise. Edit: I would bring my full setup.

i plan to change that in the next few months as for japanese players to watch, i would watch only tsujikawa and kazu. i'm not saying keita and denpa are bad, but i think that tsuji and kazu play a lot smarter and understand tao better. just my opinion though. and like everyone has been saying, don't get down on yourself. it took me about 3 months to get the taunt loop and i'm still not even close to understanding all of the character specific combos (F mu's hitbox). the best thing is to just keep playing, enjoy yourself, and learn from your matches. do you play in tournaments?

Shoutouts to: OrionXElite for the ride there and back, for letting me borrow the fightstick for the tournament, and for completely mind fucking me with tager and making me rethink the matchup Keeblerbro for winning AGAIN... and once again for the tips for my gameplay. also for the entertaining hnk 15 loss streak on the way back Whiteboywilly for owning my unlimited tao and winning the unlimited tournament with a ridiculous character. Coopa for inviting us over and giving me a lot of much needed tager matchup experience. Aginor for all the casuals at Coopa's place. It was also very helpful, but dam mu's 6b Natearistata for the casuals and for not throwing me out the window after i pimp slapped you PhaethonH for the casuals and for showing us the most hype unlimited carl matches ever! Start coming out to more tournaments! Everyone else I played, thanks for the games and see you all in two weeks.

^this

i don't want platinum to come out since that means i will also lose my taunt loop which i worked so hard to learn

<--- still waiting for valkenhayn...

anyone free to go to svgl tomorrow for some bb casuals?

do you know how much damage those will do? the combo i listed is basically challenges 8-10 and it works for most setups. and, it probably would do more damage, but i can't cat2 loop

Yes. It's easier to do and does more damage. Why would you want to try to do a more difficult combo that ends the same way (no oki), but does less damage?

Off of 6C this one combo works better, and its easier to pull off 6C -> 214D -> j.2D~B -> 5C -> 2D~9 -> j.2D~C -> j.2D~A -> 9D~5 -> 6D~6 -> j.C -> 9D~9 -> 3D~3 -> j.236Bx5 [4863]

@Final_Round Not sure if this will help or not, but I would say, practice in the corner first. You can somewhat rush inputs in the corner. Try to control their height in the corner. Play on the training stage and try to keep them bouncing a little above the third line from the bottom of the screen. This will really help your timing. After you get the timing in the corner down, work on taunt looping midscreen, again, controlling the height around the third line. Also, the first two loops are the toughest. I notice that when I loop, the first loop is relatively high, the second slightly lower, then the rest of the loop is a consistent height (around the third line). Practice with the standard 5B -> 6A -> JC -> j.2D~B -> TL -> etc. You can even substitute j.5D~B for j.2D~B in the corner, but don't make it a habit. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Hope this helps

How's it going Hawaii crew? Just went to a tournament this past weekend and got my ass handed to me. Did well in the casuals, then it came down to the tournament and I started scrubbing it up How are the casuals going?

I would like to help out as well.

Shoutouts to: CopperDabbit, thanks for being supportive and for your advice. I'll continue practicing and hopefully someday make it into top 8. Congrats on the win. Dacidbro, thank you also for the matches and the advice. Also shoutout for the top-tier commentary. You're as cool as everyone says you are. Keep doing what you do and "Be a Bang!" TaoFTW, for showing up in your free time and giving me a lot of helpful advice for Tao. I'll keep at it, especially those hit confirms. OrionXElite, for the casuals and the hilarious comments at Dacidbro during grand finals. Rin and Tsubasa, for always keeping the hype going with the streaming/recording. Looking forward to seeing the matches on the BBVlog. Coopa, for amazing defense and reset gimmicks. It's always awesome watching you play. Chun, for setting all of this up and making it happen. Thanks everyone for the games and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone next month

can i have admin priveleges please?

yup

if anyone is having trouble with the back dash after 4B+C, it is possible to simply do: 4B+C -> .. -> 214D -> .. -> j.2D~B -> etc. i believe this works on all characters, but i'm not 100% on that.
