H-F Blade

A "major" here in AZ? That's news to me. Though I can't remember the last time I saw a major that had such few titles. Also lol @99 cent store. That's what I thought when I first saw it.

I'd expect nothing less. Unfortunately I did miss it, and it sounds really exciting. I'm a little curious as to the switch back though.

Susumu was nuts. But was that really Machaboo playing Ky vs him? He hasn't used him since like Xrd 1.0 release. lol Macahboo is the air throw king when he plays Ky. I was having flashbacks of GGAC at SBO 2007 and literally lost count of his air throws.

There is no such thing as Tekken. Only MBHDR. jeez it's been a while. :|

I might actually be there tonight. What time does TGZ normally close? Midnight? @Kevin: If you're there I can give you that 5 minute tutorial I mentioned earlier. Also just a heads up, if you're entering UNIEL and haven't pre-registered yet, be sure to do so because there's going to be an entry cap if it hasn't been reached already. tinyurl.com/animevo

GGs to everyone and congrats to the winners of their respective games! A special thanks to everyone who made this possible. @Kevin: We should play AH3LM sometime! There's a few others who would be willing to play it as well. And if you need a character to play for AnimEvo, I can show you how to play Heart in 5 mins. :X The power of fisticuffs Johhny Cage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imtTNFhLZgk@ 0:25:25 & 2:14:40 lol In the off-chance anyone wants to mash in the game to try it out whenever the next meetup is, myself and maybe Tempered can supply the PS4. Due to a recent patch the game works well with PS3 sticks now. With all that said, I'll see you guys in another desert in the following week.

GGs to everyone! And a special thanks to Kevin and all who made this event possible. As always I can only imagine how much time and work goes into running an event like this and it'll probably be even more hectic if additional games will be added to the lineup. Maybe we'll have the bigger room next time hopefully? dippy and Luke: You guys are OFFICIALLY the Salty Bros. lol Why must you obsess over MK8 when MKX is the standard? Come and see me in that game and then we'll talk. Preferably before I change your guys' addresses to The Corner. I'm not sure who started the "H-F wins everything" meme but I must say that they did a good job of riling you up and it makes me smile. Ruben: Happy Birthday again. I hope you enjoyed the birthday gift at the start of the UNIEL tourney, but sadly there was a recall on the said gift and it wasn't my decision to make.

And it feels like only yesterday everyone was discussing Xrd 1.1

Time to drop every game for all these updates even if we may not get them for the next 1-2 years. :| shrug

Sorry about last weekend guys. I'll be sure not to forget my PS3 the next time there's a session at UAT. And GGs in the ranbat Luke. I'm still surprised we ended up playing Smash 4 as long as we did but it was fun albeit frustrating at times due to having played Melee religiously for a number of years. Makes me happy to not be grinding in a giant RNG-fest to unlock custom moves. I'm glad to hear that there will be some events leading up to Evo. While I do like the idea of potentially adding games that are in the Animevo lineup, I feel the biggest concern will be time constraints especially since the Animevo lineup is pretty huge. At the last monthly, Melty didn't happen so take note of potential time constraints. http://www.twitch.tv/gamingzoneaz/b/662109407 Will, do you know who was commentating with you during this set? I didn't quite catch his name at the beginning but I thought it was kinda funny that he plays the same characters I do. I'm not exactly a good source for learning but I'm always happy to share best practices of sorts with other players.

I'll head over after the ranbat.

In regard's to Eltnum changes, the change list on this forum says that her 214C lost invincibility whereas other tweets I've seen list it as 421C so I'm going to guess there's a typo here because 214C has no invincibility that I'm aware of. It seems like a significant nerf but I can understand why. The payout was absurdly high with chain shift available. The 623C nerf sounds kinda eh but who knows how much its damage was nerfed. If it gets to the point where you're throwing pebbles at them at the end of a combo, then yeah, it's significant. But again, I can understand the change. The move had WAY too much minimum damage when tacked onto the end of longer combos. Speaking of high damage reversals, I'm surprised that Linne's 63214C is untouched at the moment because there's a slew of changes that could be made to normalize the move but I won't list them again because I've already expressed my thoughts in great detail. Not really seeing the usefulness of being able to dash cancel her 214 series because it will probably just make the move punishable at that point. Overall I won't concern myself too much with a change list unless it's indicative of the final release. As for tomorrow, I'm ok for UAT after the ranbat if that's where the action will be.

Once again a special thanks to Will for generously covering everyone's entry fee for last weekend's ranbat. I had a blast and there were a lot of good matches that went down. GGs to Luke as well. The entire grand finals went back and forth and I'm glad we were able to put on a good show for the viewers.

I know where you live, so this won't be a problem. Not sure if I'll be at TGZ tomorrow night bit it'll all depend on how late I get out from work. oh right UNIEL character balls Aaaand that'll be the first and last time I ever use them. *shrug*

Instead of hoping for someone to run tournaments for games people don't really care about, you need to focus on how you're going to repay me that $7 from a month ago, preferably before this happens to you.
