  • Thought went in my head: Since Rig's Donovan's "Son", it could be possible that Donovan takes up Taekwondo also....

    I always wondered if Rig's real name is Hugo. With his father's first name being Victor, It would be a combined play on Victor Hugo, an iconic French writer/poet.

    He could have any fighting style, just saying. It depends on TN.
    When searching for a pocket, Does one A) look for a clone character B) look for similar style C) look for easier D) look for fundamental/...
    I heard Final Round will no longer be a tournament. This would be a huge blow. Then there'd only be TFC.
    I really think 3d fighters are starting to emerge in regards to entertainment and tournament scene.

    I’m shocked SonicFox didn’t do it. He played it seriously, though I guess he takes Injustice & DBFZ more serious. But is there Korean DOA players?

    Sonic Fox wasn't the type to explain the game pretty deep for one to really understand it (at the time, now might be different since Fox knows meta talk now). Back when Sonic Fox slept over my house at Defend The North for MKX with Kwiggles, he was trying to show Duane on how to play MKX and his explanation was more towards on how Fox feels when he played the game rather than explaining meta etc.

    Soy is from Korea. Probably the only consistent DOA player in Korea when it comes to DOA and he still plays it almost all the time. If it came down to it, Soy would of been perfect to help explain it to him. Saint should of approached people years back if that's the case since Soy has been in almost every NEC. Now it might be difficult if there's even interest for Soy to even travel to NEC this year due to money.
    Man, the more I play offline, the more I’m just like: unless its PC, online FG’s on console’s trash for training.

    @Tenro not whining, just coming to think of how people always trash console gaming for training or even tournament play. Before I would defend console gaming but having played on PC for real and seeing how efficient it is, I'm thinking damn why aren't we playing on that instead of PS4?

    @Camel with 2 thumbs Sorta. Not big on PC gaming until recently in regards to offline play. Console for me was efficient for casual play and that was my first goal. But having competed, and hearing from most cats regarding PC gaming, I've developed second thoughts. Playing a few buds at FR on PC was the final blow.

    When commentating for an audience, focus on communicating to the demographic watching while also promoting the game, and increasing interest in the match & players (while getting "hype" when appropriate).
    Well 0-2 crushed any positive thing I can go for in FR. And then SF gonna be another 0-2.

    One annoying thing with these brackets is that they keep switching it. Let me be able to prep for my MU's. I was content with playing JDCR.

    That should be easy.... I hear he's a cheerful person whenever he isn't talkin smack about someone...

    A better tactic would be to steal that measuring tape of his. He can't beat you if he can't see.
    Looking at the amount of killers in FR this year. I just hope I can go 2-2. Anything better than that's humbling for me.

    You know what this game needs.... a Full on league with matches every weekend.

    Because in tournament its inevitable that someone has to get knocked out early... no body wants to be that person but it has to happen.
    Lulu
    Lulu
    A league structure would shift the focus off trying to avoid going home early to trying to maintain long term consistency.

    Ofcourse using a League Structure would be a monumental pain in the ass to organise which is why they are so rare and alil small.
    Well for the 1st time in all my tekken tourneys, I went 1-2. Idk how I can play a game that requires so much but I have other things that...

    If Hwoarang isn't working, just play Dragunov, Leo, King or Kazumi for example. If you're playing to win, you're just making life harder for your self by playing Hwoarang in comparison.

    I mean at this point I'm in a huge dilemma. Especially cause school, church, and sports are taking up so much of my time. I see why speedkick experiments left and right for new characters sorta. But at the same time, Hwo the only dude I feel natural with. Idk. I just hope to find answers by FR.

    Well... knowledge and matchup is something thats required in many Fighting Games....

    As for Practice... that depends on what you're practicing.
    I'm starting to think gaming as a whole is just not a big objective for me. School plays a huge role in this. Can't practice at all as much.

    Games have been pretty dissapointing lately anyways and we may not see DoA6 for a while so if you decided to take a break from gaming I'm sure you wouldn't be missing anything important.
    Gotta love low level tekken. Where adjusting and using Junkyard if one doesn't parry isn't legit but backing up and running across the map..

    I meant backing up and running across the screen, that’s something I tend to do.
    T..J. Bernard
    T..J. Bernard
    Yeah that can happen if the purpose is to cause a whiff. Not to try and abuse the same move over and over and get pissed cause I adjusted. It's silly.
    T..J. Bernard
    T..J. Bernard
    Same way dude felt Superman & Hopkick are "Pro" level moves but because he couldn't adjust to junkyard in the end of a game, it's a "low" level move.
    I wonder if this would be intriguing for me to do: Since I don’t play DOA seriously anymore, this can give me the opportunity....
    T..J. Bernard
    T..J. Bernard
    To learn Kasumi, Ryu, Ayane, Helena, Jann (more) and Akira since these characters won their respected story tourneys. I’ll have to research VF more to see who else won.
    T..J. Bernard
    T..J. Bernard
    And after, learn characters with the UFC type of martial arts. That way by DOA 6, though Akira, Sarah, & Jacky won’t be in it, I’d have a roster to start out with. Same for Tekken, SF, and other fighters I’d pick up.
    T..J. Bernard
    T..J. Bernard
    I’d have to do this in secret though. If people see I’m on DOA and shii, then they’ll have me play all over again and I’ll never be able to work on my other games.
    Idk how you can make a rushdown character not a rushdown character? I really feel this way about Juri.

    It's my biggest struggle right now. I don't know where I can find that kind of archetype in SF (If they even have that in SFV). I feel the closest I get to with that's maybe Chun Li but I stink with the charge stuff.

    Chun Li's Charge moves aren't too bad.... her Projectile is the one you want to Master... her Spinning Bird Kick is useless outside of Combos.

    That being said... if you can't do her Instant Air Legs then theres no point in using her.

    TBH i'm getting wary, because the trailers are all cutscene attacks. Like its been 13 years waiting for this game, i'm not really "excited" anymore, but I'm still getting it, but the gameplay looks way too automated and on rails.

    Stay Strong!!!! Don't give in to the darkness. I know it's a struggle. But the payoff will be so good. Remember: "Kingdom Hearts is LIGHT".
