GGAC grand finals was probably the best Grand finals yet for Accent Core SBO tournies. I hope they release videos of the other matches on nico or something though I want to see who beat Woshige and Koichi's teams.

IMO, with the way the brackets were set from the very beginning, Tsujikawa's only real problem would have been one of the Bang players (either Nezu, Dora or Satoshi) or Shounen. Tsuji only really got to fight Satoshi though lol. But yea, apparently the JBBS's have been saying that Tao is actually stronger in Japan with regards to recent tier lists for a while now.

Yea, pretty sure that Tsujikawa is the beastly acho Slayer player.

That's assuming they IB barrier on the ground right? I'm talking in the air which should give them 5 more frames of frame advantage (edit: lol this sentence is wrong. read below). Edit: Level 4 attacks have 18 frames of blockstun, so yea. That's correct. Edit2: ok after bothering to check the dustloop system guide, air + ib + barrier = 11 frames of blockstun for a level 4 attack. So yea, still a small window. The late chaining thing is definitely the problem though, since my reactions aren't great, so it takes a while for me to confirm that they're blocking.

Yea, his name is Thomas, but I call him faggot.

XBL General is a fucking horrible thread.

great now cc is bored, good job sei. honestly this thread isn't very entertaining. it's more fun reading the other match finder threads.

How is that a flame when it's the truth?

You can check the frame data, but I've had my 2C IB + Barriered and then I've been counter hit out of my 4D afterwards before.

I just plain don't use 2C a lot as an anti-air BECAUSE it can be easily baited (not just by making it whiff; IB Barrier can screw you over if you don't confirm properly). It's a lot harder to bait a 2A or an air throw. Also AXIS, I say you should try doing more meaty 2B's on oki when you knock them down in the corner (also do it to possibly punish techrolls/quick get-ups).

First round of this video by Akira gives a better example of how Tager's 5B can be used in footsies vs Ragna: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkW3ntkxFHA @ 16 seconds, Tager's 5B stuffs a dash in 5B from Ragna. You can buffer a A-Sledge during your 5B, like Akira does, and it won't come out on whiff, but it'll come out if you hit the opponent. First round also shows Akira IB 360B-ing Ragna's 2B as well, so you can see that in action as well. Rather not show that vid of me since I'm literally just spamming 5B and I only land it like twice. Speaking from experience though, this only works if the Ragna likes to dash in before an attack. If the Ragna player just spaces himself by standing at max range and pressing buttons, it's basically impossible to react to. If you're going to use 5B in footsies, you're basically reacting to the dash rather than the poke itself, because the idea is to have your 5B out before Ragna's attack.

yea i just want to echo eda and say you missed a lot of possible confirms off various j.Ds. j.D leads to big damage, you should always try to confirm those (even blackbeat non-ch ones, because mac wasn't teching right away). i notice you like mixing between 6b > asledge and 6b > 6c. why not try out 6b > 5d at some point. 5d is safer on block. also, imo, you needed more anti-air 2a's and anti-air colliders. there were a lot of times where mac was in the air magnetized (collider) and a bunch of times where he was right above your head starting an air attack which is perfect for a CH 2a. i personally use anti-air 2A a lot in this match-up if the haku-men likes being up close for whatever reason. also j.b combos edit: oh and bait bursts more (there should probably be a proper discussion of this somewhere later). mac isn't as tick throw happy as i remember him.

yes.

No real reason as to why there are so many Faust players in SBO. He's just a popular character.

You can watch N-Otoko's team in the recent D-1 SBO qualifier vids that I mentioned: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=1C39CE89A366C23F Look for the team "Ghastly Dream" and you'll probably see some N-Otoko Venom action. Woshige's doing most of the beasting though tbh. lol Millia oki. Edit: Though I'd say just watch all those vids. I think those vids are probably the best representation of current top level GGAC play. Plus Samitto plays really well in those vids, and I haven't seen good AC Chipp ownage in a long time.

Why do you write Shounen's name in all caps? I mean I know you like boys Pui, but calm down.

Anyone watch the D-1 SBO GGAC vids yesterday? LOL @ Shounen double perfecting MINT. That is all.

From this post lolol, so relevant to our community.

i bet you only watched that show for the trap faggot. and guys, jin's the 2nd most used character in toronto. at this rate, you'll pass tager in terms of character usage. brb learning jin.

great linear's watching moyashimon now.

i don't actually know why we call him boss. boss is pretty cool, but he doesn't speak a lot of english, so i have to converse with him using my poor cantonese skills. edit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTD_t-3Ix3k lol third round. lol accent core. limekey

Are we forced to get the whole NESCA system?

Mind testing the wiki combos for heat gain as well Edalborez? Wee, my combo has awesome heat gain.

Boss was pretty enthusiastic last time we talked about BBCS2 though.
