Zaido Report post Posted January 29, 2008 Rtl42: j.k dj.k j.D j.2k etc might have worked, and is what I shouldve gone for as a tensionless combo. But I think j.k dj.k DHD wouldve connected, and probably finished the match right then. My only defense is that I didn't have that much exp. vs Jam and her very small hitbox then. Thanks for the input though, Slayer requires alot more thougth concerning spacing in his combos now and his game becomes so much better when you learn to deal with it. you probalby dont even need the 2nd djK to do DHD, you probably can do it after jK ->j2K ->DHD-> the rest Jam is one of those characters that have those floaty hit boxes, that are also vertically big, yet horizontally thin ><... and Slayer is one of those character where you have to be at any time change ur combo and know how much tension you need to do what so its tough...

kekken3 Report post Posted March 13, 2008 Hey, everyone! Obviously mindless Champion notified me about it only now, though I've told him about this months in advance and he's the one following the international scene much more than me. Anyway, the dates seem to be good and the scale of the tournament seems epic, so it'd be a big waste not to try and be there. Right now Ryanair arrival on friday late evening seems like the best option we have and looking at http://www.bitterharmony.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=2300&start=0 I was relieved to see that the GGXX tourneys have been moved to saturday (which makes a lot of sense, as friday is usually the "arrival" day for everyone and people can get late). So yeah, in short, if everything goes well, Champ and I will try our best to be there. Don't know yet about a third player but considering I've only found out about it half an hour ago, plans seem to be going well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shinjin Report post Posted March 15, 2008 A heartwarming quotes from the SVB'08-thread at the brittish-forum: More like everybody that has a name in Euro is going there (showdown) or nowhere lol. Cant blame them. That event is a GG players dream. People not only go there to see who is the best, but to learn. 3 days of casuals and tournament is a rich experience. I think every character will be present. As they say, you have (had) to be there! We will do our best to make it the most awesome tournament ever! I hope you all will help us by taking part of the hype during matches And another quote, just because seems like someone knows shit: Seriously SLS, europeans are NOTHING special on GG. The only good players are in sweden and they're not coming (to SVB08). See you all at Showdown3!!! Edit: SVB'08 is a event held during the same weekend as S3IS and has one gg-tournament (1on1).

chun_li1 Report post Posted March 15, 2008 oi oi, go easy on the hype. starting to sound fachist:kitty: And you know what happens to fachist. They rise fast and fall hard. and its not like players from outside of EU will join (this) year, if you make more noise. instead you should be preparing animal sacrifices, pray that maybe Ruu or 0 will show up. Might help PS Why is my quote travelling all around the world? Is it gonna be like Euros equivalent to the infamous Joe Higashi quote at SBO or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
