    Napalm decided he'd had enough of my shit-talk (understandable), and challenged me to a West Side Story-esque dance battle. I politely refused, instead suggesting Street Fighter IV, which is a videogame and more suited to my disdain for physical activity. I present to you the following discoveries about our friend Napalm: 
     

    • Napalm loves Guile's sweep, because it totally hits twice.
    • Napalm thinks air throws are "the ballingest."
    • Napalm thinks a crossup is a word puzzle that smart people do in pen.
    • Napalm's favorite movie is "Missing in Action 2," featuring roundhouse kick enthusiast and folk hero Chuck Norris.
     
    In all seriousness, good job for sticking until the end, man. Unlike most internet tough guys, Napalm didn't hesitate to put up. Final score, 10 games to 1.

    This thread gets bonus points for the inclusion of the word "ballingest".

    I basically knew by about the end of the second round that I was basically fucked, haha. Reading the talk of reaching G1 made me a little nervous to go against him, but I was ready for whatever was happening, so I went with it. I won match 5 I believe, but by the end of the 6th it was over and we kept going. I was intent on continuing, but he disconnected the room after match 11. Tech throws are hard to do with Abel. The problem was, I went on the defensive too early and instead of making him play to me I was waiting to see what he was doing but wasn't reacting accordingly.
     
    Abel is difficult to defend against because his defense quickly becomes an offense if you're not looking, and Guile's whole philosophy of playing close to the opponent but never letting them grab you kind of goes out the window against Abel.
     
    I eagerly await the rematch, however. You can't get better by playing people who are worse than you.

    Sorry, I prefer to connect to people who can kick my ass so I can get better rather than playing "scrubs," :p.
     
    Kidding, of course, haha.

    I thought you and Hedgehog were off to play MvC2 when you left the party. I'd rather get choked out then play that.

    Keep in mind....  command grabs cannot be tech'd.
     
    Regardless, hope they were good games for all!
     
    edit:  he doesn't just think it, air grab is indeed "the ballingest"

    Why not settle dispute on other forums with real fights then? I'm sure that would work out just swell.
