I guess this introduction is a bit late, but hey, I'm Takeda. I also go by Inferno. I haven't been on the DOA competitive scene at all yet, infact I wanted to but by the time I found out there was a scene, It was too late.
My first run in with DOA was the DOA2 demo on dreamcast. I spent a few hours playing 3 sets as Ein over and over, and me and my dad even picked up DOA3, and soon after DOA2U. I guess that's where things started to escalate. After I let my friend borrow DOA2U he made me have to start improving because he was easily getting ahead of me, then when we got wind that DOA4 was out, we picked that up and ever since I've been watching people play, trying to learn all I can.
That's why I'm here now, to learn, and compete, and also to pick up the skills to maybe really become better than my friend at this. I might ask a lot of questions, and say things about the game that may sound wrong so I will ask that you do correct me if I say something incorrect, heh.
My mains have been Hayate, Ein, Zack, Eliot, and Jann Lee. In Doa5 I plan on adding Hitomi, Lei Fang, and Kokoro to that list. Unfortunately I don't own DOA4 or an Xbox anymore so I'll only be studying frame data for now but If you're looking for some casual SC5 and Tekken play on Ps3 my PSN is InfernoZX5.
Nice meeting all of you.
