Where's Leo???

From my understanding the smash community started it up eh? They must have a bigger scene than the sf/capcom community. And yeah same here. Really tired of sticking to only netplay, if not only Shahied and Ken for offline play. When I come, I'm bringing my ps3 to record them offline matches xD

SO what's this new place that's better than Foonzo that Scott from Ottawa was telling em about?

Matches between me and iBeK3n: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb1pcXHgnQM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLzqwkyv99A (Sin's rainbow of sadness breaks my heart) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUWuNzjs03Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yrqEbCUzx4 (I don't know when this video will be adjusted because my hand was shaking while recording it)

Elphelt: Yes agreed, her normals, at their effective range, beats Ky's. The matchups still feels like vs I-no for the most part for me, Whoever gets knocked down and/or put into the corner loses the round, rather quickly. Except both Elphelt and Ky have very strong overdrive reversals that allow them to get out of the corner and turn the tides. I would also like to say that Elphelt's divorce super (632146D) can be beat with a j.d> dc. stun edge setup, or with a properly spaced 5d, her super clashes with it. Based off watching Roz play against Dei's Elphelt, it seems you have to bob and weave in and out of her range in order to avoid getting knocked down due to her normals, (when traded) yield more for her than Ky. Going in out of of midrange without getting in close is the most effective way to play against her. Once you known her down and/or get her into the corner, it's usually over. As for Sol, I noticed his pokes seem to be better in Xrd. I have a harder time keeping him out, YRC gunflame and fafnir aside. What changed with Sol's normals into xrd that's different from AC/ACR?

I just realized I just spent night on valentine's watching replays from my offline sessions... #SadLife I can only play during the day as it stands, I'm still spending nights at the hospital. So no meetups or true socializing of any kind for the time being

Awesome, interesting use of 3hs>RTL in the corner.

The highlighted matchups are the ones that I'm surprised you'd rank them there honestly. I suppose I need to play against stronger Elphelts to learn about this matchup a lot better. As for Sol, I found Ky's strong damage and stronger screen control tools keep the matchup even against Sol, and I'm surprised that you would say Zato vs Ky is the same as Sin vs Ky. Though I haven't played a strong Zato yet, I thought the matchup would still be along the lines of 6-4/7-3 in Zato's favor. The rest, from what I've seen, or played I agree with. My sparring partner, who uses Sol, plays exactly like this. He also sits just outside your characters preferred range constantly as he lights up the screen. How do you handle such players eh-sama? Keep talking this is actually quite interesting, my sparring partner in GG since HS, plays very chaotic honestly. But as he realized characters with very high damage output like Johnny, Sin, and Potemkin this play style doesn't work so well against them as they capitalize off mistakes better than most characters, provided the opponent is competent enough to optimally punish mistakes.

If I may ask, why don't you own the game anymore (if you owned it at all)?

@Poch, you main Ky now? I thought Ky was still your sub as you mained Random like in AC/ACR.

Wow, so rusty at this game now. Lost to a random sin player online that's not even as good as ken. What are combos? What are hit confirms? Also looking forward to talking about fighting games with Omar as old GG players do. Hoping rhanmmah will join us in bashing anything and everything that is new that these young kids enjoy playing.

Eh-sama, do you think you could give your inputs on some of the new matchups in Xrd, or is it still too early for you to do that? Also could you give a break down of the robo-ky matchup as well? Thank you for all that you've done so far

Why doesn't Leo call or reply to my texts, did he find someone else to replace me with now that I'm not in Toronto????

First post updated Pedro, sorry for the delay My dad has been approved of for rehab, so perhaps you guys will be seeing me soon. I'll probably hop online to shake off rust tomorrow, God I miss this game immensely...

This matchup feels like a mixture of Faust and Johnny. Longer range and better pokes than Ky that he can hit confirm, and he essentially kills you in two combos with proper resources like Johnny. Thoughts?

GGs to everyone i played tonight.

Hey, that's me )))) From what I've seen or heard about SIn and the other new characters people are jumping to conclusions too quickly. From what I've seen so far, Sin is well balanced. His damage is REALLY high, especially with 50 meter or in the corner if he had heavy mixups he'd be too strong. I have to agree with Ken's posts, we play a lot and he shows how strong Sin can be. He's only been out for like what, a month and a half? Still a lot to learn about this character.

Looking forward to see who has the nicest sin though.

Sytha/eh-sama/anyone, how do you guys deal with this matchup. I'm not sure of how my screen positioning should be against him. And dealing with them rekkas once he's in is tough for me, even wen IB'd. Thanks.

It's almost a sin, not to have puns for this character lol.

Your sin is only as bad as you say and think he is. Think positive and do positive things, positive outcomes will come to you eventually. I could tell you were afraid and scared when we started playing, don't think that way. I'm only that much stronger than you as a player as you think I am. Think positive my brother

This matchup plays the same as when you're against I-no. Getting knocked down is terrible and probably the best time to burst, especially if she's using her grenade oki. Whoever gets knocked down first will most likely lose the round.

GGs to everyone in the sankishin room. Ken said the same thing. Looking forward to when i can come back to meet ups, my dad is still in the ICU at the jewish general, so maybe in february when he's more stable you guys can start seeing me KHM, switch to wired internet connection, wireless is shit for netplay, it's why you couldn't stay in the room most likely, your connection fluctuates. Whn you fix it, feel free to ask for some advice on how to play sin and etc. Also everyone plays sin in montreal. Montreal's new name is Sin City, the home of all Sin players lol.

Just wanted to let you guys know my dad had a third stroke on the 31st, so I'll be quite busy for a bit. Sorry for all of this.
