I was planning to go but apparently I have work on Easter Monday. :v I'll see if I can get someone else to take my shift, but I kinda doubt it when it's tomorrow.

6PM. I'd get there around 7:30, which isn't too late, I suppose. I'd be traveling pretty much as long as I'd be playing, though.

Oh. Well I'll be at A&C on Wednesday also if that would be better (I think Jermaine may be able to come in on that day). As long as you can get at least 2-3 hours of solid offline gameplay, that's not bad.

GGs to Hunter, Harry and Brandon (@Puño de Leyenda ) this evening! Very fun fights. I didn't actually get to play Brandon tonight (since I can't play Kokopuffs properly) but the Kokoro mirrors I saw were amazing LOL. If Monday is good for everyone next week, let's do it again!! I'll still come in on Wednesday this week (and am looking to get back into SCV, Nightmare is too damn fun!!! xD).

I'm heading out to Toronto tomorrow so I'll see you folks out there Wednesday and for Toryuken. :)

Sounds cool, it's always great to have SoCal players randomly hopping into Canada to randomly come to our events lol. Hope you enjoy our currently shitty exchange rate ;).

Edit: @Puño de Leyenda actually comes from New York state to contribute to our scene. How's that for support? :)

Don't worry Hajin-senpai we haven't forgotten about you, but my Ayane already causes enough rage in the Toronto scene :cool:

It would be pretty hype if you were here though actually!

Alright, Jermaine (ShiningNegro) is going to be at A&C World tomorrow and I'm going to go over DOA5U's gameplay mechanics and metagame with him tomorrow. If anyone would like some help with those elements of 5U or would like to engage in the discussion (or just chill and have some kick ass matches!), feel free to join us. I also like the video that @Puño de Leyenda produced in the Media Section! Very nicely done!

@Yurlungur, Glad to hear that you've been studying up Luca! Enjoy your stay in the Top 4 ;)! Remember NO TROLLING on the stream! O_O

I feel like there must be some hidden tech I don't know about, 'cause no one sidesteps Leifang. She literally has no answers unless someone sidesteps 3P or something. Maybe it's the threat of throws, but she has below average throws and she's so negative after blocked strikes that free cancel throw actually loses against sidestep attacks. Maybe it's the threat of top player Helena mind games. :v ElenaBathory makes really great reads at clutch moments.

I'm actually surprised people don't mash from my block strings. I know I can use parries to keep abare in check, but I almost never do that. People just really like respecting her.

EDIT: By the way, I've been experimenting with guaranteed options versus mixups. What is more threatening to you guys? I tend to do stuff like 3H 9K into 3P/64P/delay 214T more than 3H 9KK 3KP+K nowadays.
