Summer Jam Results [August 14th & 15th] (BB/GG/MB)
mAc Chaos replied to St1ckBuG's topic in Tournament Results
It was a lot of fun. I thought it was weird how the PS3 would choke up every time someone landed a 720. I need to start using a stick full time one of these days so I can play seriously at these. Just playing was good though. -
Nothing beats Ragna's j.C if spaced properly, at least by Haku, and given how much range he has I don't think anyone else is better off. I mean sure, if they do it dumb and get in close then you can hit him all day, but good Ragnas hit you with the very tip of the j.C, which places Ragna so far away that you could do Haku's 6A right through it in CT and Ragna would just land unharmed and CH you for the whiff. The only way to "beat" it is to just back off and give yourself some room, or just block it and wait out the pressure. You could Hotaru it, I suppose, but that beats everything so it doesn't really say anything about Ragna's j.C being worse for it. In CS you can also use Haku's new j.C to keep him out in the air, but you'd have to already have it coming out since Ragna is faster. If you wait until he's already doing it and try to react you won't get it out in time. Haku's 2C won't beat out anything unless they're right on top of you or you throw it out way beforehand and they just run into it.

There's always the possibility they'd bring the current arc to a close then start writing a new one.

Did we play at SummerJam? I noticed your name in the signups and I fought a pink Noel. I was the gold Hakumen.

Does that long range C move people follow 6C up with a lot of the time count as a projectile? 63214C? That might work. Otherwise, you're probably going to have to back off or wait it out. Ah, I see it's -10, so scratch that, unless you want to fish for a CH.

wtf, Shervin said that too. "He sounds like a rapist." I like the things he says. :p Why are you gonna leave the state? Luckily Summer Jam was in Philly which is like 30 minutes from my house.

As much as Hakumen has improved, this matchup hasn't. lool At least, until you can establish control. That's the hard part though. :P Well, let me revise that. If you fight scrubby Lambdas, it'll be much easier. But when you find the ones who know what they're doing, it's back to the old routine.

I found even the PS3 controller kind of weird. Like, I'd input A or D, and half the time, it wouldn't come out! I know it wasn't just me, because Shervin was playing on his own stick, and the same thing was happening to him. Also, the game would literally choke and lag up when he'd land a 720. Yeah, it was pretty fun. Those things are pretty much like all day road trips. You round up some friends and go drive around, find some places to eat, (we ate at a Pizza Hut) and play games. You also get to meet the other good players and there's usually some funny people there. It was hard for me to concentrate sometimes when someone would say something funny every time I'd smack someone with Hakumen's sword. "STAY SAD!"

We got matched up against each other in like the first round. Considering you go to these events to play people you DON'T play every day for free, we were like
, lool. I couldn't do much except jump around and j.C and 4C and randomly counter. He astral'ed me. But I perfected him when we got home and I plugged in my pad. 
Also fought a Hazama, a Noel, and a Makoto. They were pretty good but had no idea how to handle my zoning. My last match was against that Makoto player, NinjaCW. It was very close, so I think I would have won it if I was able to play on a 360. -
Shervin's match with this Bang towards the end was amazing. He was getting wrecked. That Bang was practically trolling him the entire set. But then Shervin made a last second comeback, so the Bang went for timeout in match deciding round. They were both at like 1% life with the Bang a bit ahead, but out of nails. There were 2 seconds left with the Bang full screen and in the air. Shervin threw an almost full screen 720. It looked like the Bang player would easily avoid it. Then he fell into it. It was amazing.

I went back home and went to a major East Coast tournament called Summer Jam that they have every year. They have to use PS3s so I can't really play, so I just tagged along to see my brother play and check out the CS tournaments. I ended up signing up for the CS one along with my brother since, they told us to come around noon for SF4 signups but always take hours to actually start. Meanwhile the BB stuff was going on earlier in the day. It was a good thing we did it too since they didn't actually start the SF4 singles 'til like 10 PM, wtf. We ended up just playing BB and leaving around 6. Shervin got top 4 I think, somehow, and I got 13th, mainly since I wasn't using my 360 pad and had to alternate between PS3 pad and stick.

:0 Thanks for the heads up. I'll probably be at Summer Jam in philly this weekend though. Darn! I'll definitely play with you guys soon though.

What negative comments? You mean people rooting against Hazama? That's because he's Hazama :P
