Any of you guys go to tournaments and stuff? I just got back from one...they really help you analyze what you're doing wrong...
Anyways, ggs @ specialbuddy, but I really thought you would make it to finals. Because of how the bracket worked I guess we tied for third. It'll be interesting to see how you get placed in the ranbat standings.

" @Thrawn: What tourney was this? "not anything big, just a local tournament. there some good players there though.
ranbats is basically the points system that ranked matches use in sfiv online. you get/lose points based on the skill level of people you fight as compared to how many points you have
I'm getting sick of people randomly saying, "U USE KEN LOOLOOZ"" @Thrawn: I see, thanks for the explanation. But wait, stop the damn presses. Even if it was indirectly, did we witness Napalm actually defend me/Mr. Masters? Forget curing cancer, what we just witnessed here was huge! I expected more from you Jakob. Tsk tsk. "
EDIT: I don't know if you're just playing dumb (lol) or if you're serious, but RanBat just stands for Ranked Battles.
@fRAWRst: Awesome, so it is live, Live. That I can get into. Maybe I could win a new stick, god damn piece of junk SE.
I was looking for Arcade Infinity RanBat Tournaments and I typed "RanBat" into YouTube search and it came back a bunch from all over the place and I saw a couple were Ranked Battles." @Napalm: Yeah man, I kind of understand what you are saying seeing as I have been getting shit from everybody since day 1 for using Ken! And no, I am just that dumb, I did not know ranbat was cool guy talk for ranked battles. That is to expected though, after all I play Ken.

They probably have a different system, im no pro.
Stang, if your having trouble with a SE, mod it. I spent 24 dollars on a 4/8 way sanwa stick, and 2 bucks on 6 buttons a piece, and now my SE is probably as good as an actual arcade cabinet. Now to mention light and easily fits on your lap (unlike that HUGE te).
Its really not hard at all to mod your SE, the stick comes out with a phillips and a flathead screwdriver, and the buttons are all click ins. It took me about half an hour to take apart it all, switch all the stuff around, plug in the connectors exactly where they were before, and have a sweet modded stick.
Theres also all kinds of vid tutorials on youtube, i really recommend modding one. The SE stick is mad of shoddy parts which are prone to breaking, not to mention a 4 way is in my opinion hard to use with command characters. My 8 way feels much smother, and my new main Abel loves it.
I feel good in the Gen vs Balrog match it's just I wasn't playing very well in that match. I start getting frustrated when I cant cross someone up cause it cuts out 75% of my offense. I think if I just played better and didnt go into auto pilot it would have been at least a better match up.
Saying that I did think about picking Akuma next time if I didn't feel good using Gen. So that might happen in the future if I lose the first match.
" @Thrawn said:Was it recorded? Also what character you play?" I would be happy with getting to play gootecks "Yeah. I was quite excited :D But the first match ended with two perfects on gootecks part. Second match I got his health down to about 50% one round and.. just 90% the second :P "
" @Lilja said:Yeah I actually recorded it myself with my cam. Acceptable quality.Yeah. I was quite excited :D But the first match ended with two perfects on gootecks part. Second match I got his health down to about 50% one round and.. just 90% the second :P "Was it recorded? Also what character you play? "
I main as Rose and I played like shit that match :P But I can upload it to youtube if anyone is interested in seeing it :3

Might be gearing up for MI Ranbats in the near future, so I'll be cracking down on match-ups here soon, so expect me to be online cursing the day I was born a lot, unless I win. Then it was a good and fair match.
