    EVO 2013: DoA5 has a shot! But there's a catch...

    Skullgirls is closing in on MLP. It looks like Brony's may be supporting ever since Mike_Z showed Mane 6 some respect and the latter also mentioned that they liked Skullgirls. That said, I'd like to at least see DOA5 threaten Melee in the standings.

    That's because, unlike here, they've got no one like <redacted> and <redacted> telling people not to donate.

    Okay, DOA5 is currently second, just $500 short of Melee. Come one people, keep that money coming.

    EVO 2013: DoA5 has a shot! But there's a catch...

    DOA5 is currently ranked at 6th (MLP is no longer in the running since SRK and Mane6 agreed that it will have a separate exhibition instead.). This is not counting Matt's $600 donation which would bring it up to 3rd behind SG. That's still a ways off behind Smash, but if we can get people to...

    Darkstalkers: Resurrection

    Only reason Japan is getting a disc release is because downloadable releases don't sell well in Japan, which is where Darkstalkers has always been more popular in.

    Tiers vs Favorites (Fighting)

    AE2012 is simply: Top - Anyone who can vortex. Bottom- Everyone else. Off course, it has always been like this ever since, we've only just really picked up on the tech now.

    What would you change about DOA?

    Two way street, while more pushback makes punishing harder, it also makes piling on pressure harder. The thing is however, the defensive player doesn't need to punish to turn the game in his favor. Simply being able to stop pressure and return things to neutral can be enough.

    Should unblocking during active frames cause damage?

    Not sure how a "hold from block stun" (red hold?) mechanic would go over with the players. Especially considering that you can hold out of critical stun in DOA (unlike 3rd Strike where you cannot parry out of hit stun). EDIT: That said, I would be willing to trade holds out of block in place...

    Should unblocking during active frames cause damage?

    For most fighting games, letting go of block (either a button or back) after getting hit doesn't put you out of a blocking state due to how blockstun works (something referred to as absolute guard). As far as I know, the only exception to this is 3rd Strike where letting go of block does put you...

    Tiers vs Favorites (Fighting)

    Except it's too early to call tiers for DOA5 and signs seem to point that Helena is high tier. Also, that person you're "calling weak" minded is Viscant, aka the EVO2011 MvC3 champ.

    EVO 2013: DoA5 has a shot! But there's a catch...

    The point is this - do whatever it is that you legally can do to get the game in. Got some money? Donate it. Know someone who has money that they'ld like to give to charity? Then point them towards this. Think that TN might be interested in pumping money into this? Then go ahead and tell them to...

    EVO 2013: DoA5 has a shot! But there's a catch...

    I'm going to be frank. The other communities are likely already doing whatever it takes to get their games at EVO. Bronies are most likely already abusing their parents credit cards and calling support from 4chan trolls to get the game in (just as a joke even). Meanwhile, I've heard some players...

    EVO 2013: DoA5 has a shot! But there's a catch...

    And at the end of the day, this doesn't do anything for the intended goal, which is getting the game into EVO. EDIT: And if this is simply being pessimistic about the game's chances to get in, then lemme' quote the same thing I said to Havik. And if that's not enough, three words: MELTY...

    EVO 2013: DoA5 has a shot! But there's a catch...

    You do realize that Wiz and the Cannon's chose the charity that they did for a reason right? Besides, all this complaining about them not giving to so-and-so charity just sounds like a childish tantrum because something you support isn't the one the money is going to. All it's doing is shitting...
