SoCal, Pasadena tournament results and shout outs

shoutouts:


7. Dani_Hungerford - almost lost to you... you were up 2-0 and it was feeling like my match with NDK, then I completely stopped approaching you and tried to out-turtle you. It worked :D but we made it to the final round 2-2, closest set of the day I think. It's funny because I later Okami told me what Idlemind said I should do and did exactly that.
What did you do to win? I want to know my weaknesses!! Please tell me!
 
1. Xeph: I was not expecting to beat you at all. I knew from the start, once you picked atsraoth it was over for me. I have the worst time fighting him, as you saw. And you eyebrows aren't even that big.
2. Krayzie: Boy you know we had to reprsent the low tier, except you make Maxi not low tier at all!
3. NFK: I'm proud for pulling of one win with Talim at the tourny, I did how ever ask for character select after you beat me the forst round both times, but you seemed busy on your phone and you got rushed out, so no worries!
4.NDk new exactly how to beat me with Voldo. That's all I gotta say.
5. Signia: Sorry for no using Ivy on you, but I had more than a blast playing your Sophi with Cassy, I thought we pulled of an Epic match, up 2, than you made a come back! That was the shit, we should definately get offline casuals in, it's more than worth it.
6. Revin: Great freaking Yun, I didn;t know we had good Yun's in So Cal.
8: good shit dude! NM keeps me on my toes, he's a great match up for me. I would've liked to fight your App as well.
9: Jeuce: I had an awesome time against your Raph, he's a challenge for me aswell. I thank Mariah god for not letting you pick Vader, that would've been horrible on my part.

And that's all I gotta say.
 
Man that weekend was good times..

Xeph - You fuckin young noob! I had alot of fun on those drives with those roach juice stories and slideshows. Also good job in the tourny, im still mad about our match but its all good, next time ima kill that weak shit! Btw you left your pillow at my house

Krayzie - Finally got some even games going with you, I can finally say I dont fear your Maxi anymore. I kinda have a feeling your gonna adapt to what I do and start killin me again though. And of course your epic rage was crackin me up as always!

HRD - Big thanks for the housing and food. Good thing you beat me in Maxi mirrors or you would of never heard the end of it. Rising dragon of the zodiac!!!

Signia - GGs over the weekend, I'll give you some more time to figure me out before we do that MM :)

NFK - F UUUUUU, im never listening to your "advice" again lol

GGs to all you online guys Juece, Rid, Dani im glad you could make it, felt so good attacking on - and using lows on you guys! Also Revin really nice Yun, caught me by surprise.

Thanks for housing us and hosting casuals at your pad. Thanks for buying me that pint of Jaiger! And the pizza was bomb as fuck; the bong load was the highlight, though. Haha. Anyways, good games my friend. Practice more for next time, and take some Krayzie strats. Tell your girl I said thanks as well.

NDK;
Thanks for driving us there homie. Good to see you upgrading in skill, that Voldo will be more solid in the future, I'm sure of it. I'll never doubt your judgment again, haha. But yeah, shit was mad fun. good to have some homies in NorCal, wouldn't pick any others.

KrayzieCD;
My nigga! You's a trip, man. Great games, you're always my favorite person to play out of every tournament we've both participated in. We'll have to session up again soon, make sure we got our skills intact. Thanks for driving back, as well. Oh, and for the huge support- I'll text you later for your information.

NFK;
Fuckin' great seeing you again. You're skills have not diminished, and great games. We'll have to session up with norcal and your buddy Signia and Dave again, soon. Room of killers.

Signia;
Good games buddy. Glad you made it out to Dave's after the tournament. Hopefully you won't underestimate the NorCal folks next time ;) I'll be waiting for that MM when you're ready, hopefully at DEV. Keep at it, and I believe you have my number? If not, get it from NFK- or I think I may have it. Anyways, we'll all try and session up again soon.

Revin;
I've never heard of your name, but you were tough to fight; great job on consistently punishing my shit via tournament. You need to join us in the sessions as well. Bring me some Adobo, haha.

RidleyOMEGA;
Like that shit, huh? Finally able to step and punish and shit! haha. You're one person I've tried to prep for offline, so keep at it, and you'll be hanging with us more so than last time via SCIV. I know you'll do well if you keep pushing yourself to compete against high level competition offline.

Juece;
You quiet motha' fucka'. Definitley didn't expect that, we gotta party it up next time buddy. Better practice for next time, homie. haha. Also, lose that 1BA shit, haha. you got ducked the fuck up.

Dani;
You hold your controller hella' weird. Anyways, CD, NDK and I agreed- you'll be a tougher opponent if you keep at the offline practice as well. You have potential to be a lot better than you are now; and you're pretty good as it is. Good games.

Okami;
Thanks for taking the time to stream and record matches. You're cool people, my friend. You should really be playing this game; fuck Melee.


Also, everyone else who showed up; good games. Hopefully this tournament wasn't just a one time thing for y'all. Especially with SCV comin' out and shit. Lookin' forward to more trips to SoCal. Pasadena had some BAD FUCKING BITCHES. Don't bring your controllers next time, so we can mack on some unsuspecting broads. Shi----
 
Xeph likes that dark meat lol, the only reason I was quiet was because everyone was quiet I thought you guys were focusing or something and I didn't want to interrupt

Oh hell man....that was absolutly my pleasure. Im pretty big on being a good host so I was really worried bout making sure everyone had everything they needed. I will no longer listen to you however, when you wanna see 4A+B at the most inconvient times. Either way it was really cool meeting you. Ur uglier than I thought you would be tho!! and its LUNGING dragon of the zodiac....kilik punk!!

I gotta say, I honestly thought you would be a cocky bastard. But I was humbled by how cool you were! It was an honor playing you and giving me some insight that Ive already put into motion, now I gotta rethink my WHOLE way of playing this game. But its coming along. Out of all the guys, my old lady says that you were her favorite, only cuz you read them there weirdo books like she did!

NFK- again, u were uglier than I thought youd be. Even tho you didnt get the pleasure of kicking my ass, it was still an honor to have you in my house! Ill try to get another gathering going soon so you and signia can come back down!

Signia-dont think we played much but it was still fun as hell getting to kick your ass before you got all warmed up and shit!! GGs again man.

Krayzie-Youre my fuckin maxi hero. "66K~GI" Ill never forget that shit!! You taught me quite a bit, There are just things about this game that I never noticed or couldnt implement cuz my brain was so infected by online play. Thanx for making me feel part of the crew. Thank you so much for what you taught me, and it was a dream to actually get to sit next to you and play some fuckin calibur!!

I just realized that Im posting up in the shoutout thread for a tourney I didnt even go to! But I dont give a shit.....blow it out your asses fat kids!!

The nor-cal crew (and Xeph) will always have a place to stay in San Diego!!

HRD
 
Wow I love tourneys! Not just for the competition itself but all the stuff that goes along with it: Traveling to the location. Meeting new players for the first time. Watching all the intense matches during the tourney. Hanging out afterwards and shooting the shit. And of course all the casual matches that follow after.

HRD: Gotta start off with you of course. You are the fucking MAN! Totally took care of Xeph, NDK, and myself with food and drinks. Entire 6 pack of blue moon for myself, Jaeger for Xeph, 4 boxes of pizza for all of us....EXACTLY what we needed after the drive from Pasadena to San Diego. Had a great time at your place man, and I enjoyed our Maxi mirrors. Thanks for hosting for that gathering on Sunday, I remember a time when I used to have cool sessions like that at my place :( Oh well, looking forward to the next time buddy! Anytime you find yourself in NorCal, you got a place to stay at my house.

Xeph: All I got to say is 'I told you so'. I could tell from our session at NDK's a month prior that you had totally leveled up in this game after FSAK. I've pretty much told you all that I thought about your skills and shit like that so no need to post some long story here. You are fucking pro and you, myself, and NDK need to try to meet up at least once a month and play the shit out of this game so we can keep our skills up.

NDK: You have also leveled up a whole bunch from before and I am glad for that. Now when I come up there for sessions it won't just be me beating you and Koomp into the ground but I'll have some great competition. I notice you also finally showing some swag, saying shit during matches now. I must be rubbing off on you, fucking finally you start opening your mouth lol. Pretty soon you'll be ready to 'kill that weak ass Maxi shit' totally lol. Looking forward to making the hour drive to session more often now, so when we playing again?

NFK: Still the solid muthafucka that I remember, ya big pimp! I don't know why you let us off the hook at the tourney by using no Ivy against Xeph and only using her once against me. I think you would've taken 1st if you used Ivy exclusively. Glad you finally figured out the Maxi matchup also, so no one will get away with any BS wins on you like I used to lol. Anyhow, good to see you again and glad you didn't quit like you threatened to after Dev. See you this year's Dev? Or even earlier?

Signia: Nice meeting you dude, like I said in person for some reason I pictured you as being shorter lol. Anyhow good matches, your Sophie is nice but of course there is more you can add to your game, just like I need to add more. And you'll get that from playing more offline matches, sorry to say but those online matches don't really help IMO. Yeah I did beat your Sophie with Maxi but I'm not gonna give you a bunch of shit for it like I originally planned to. I just hope that you see that some matches against an ok Maxi online isn't enough prep to really learn the matchup. I think if we had played for a couple more hours you would have learned 30x more than you did playing Duragon619 online for all those months. Anyhow I hope you're serious about coming out to NorCal for sessions and bringing NoFace and whoever else out here because we need all the offline practice we can get.

Ridley: Nice to finally meet you in person after all those games online lol. You are a lot quieter than I thought you'd be haha. Anyway, thank you for posting the info for this tourney on this site and bringing us all together like this. Hope you continue to try to meet up with people offline for games and good luck planning another SoCal tourney.

Revin: You solid muthafucka you, where you been?? You also impressed the shit out of the NorCal crew, you came out of nowhere. Excellent Yun, reminiscent of King Salmon. Whatever you do to stay solid, keep at it. Try to come up with Signia and Noface if they ever do come to NorCal. I'll be sure to try to get NDK, Xeph and others to show up when you do come.

Juece: Nice to meet you also. The Vader is nice but now I hope you see how 1B,A isn't the greatest move in the world now lol. It's not your fault though, online kinda teaches you bad habits in this game. More offline games buddy!

Dani California: LOL j/k, nice to meet you hungerford. Me, Xeph, and NDK agreed that you were probably the most skilled online player there and you displayed excellent knowledge of frames and character specific matchups. I hope you find someway to get more offline games because you definitely have the skills to be a top player in this game, but online play only won't get you there.

Okami: Thanks for being a lifesaver by bringing the only good TV to the venue, and for taking the time to stream all those matches. You're a cool guy, start playing SC4 with Signia!

All online players: I hope you see how all the complaints that me and Xeph and other offline players made about online being so different (and worse) than offline were verified now. Step G, GI, and reacting to lows, throws, and duckable highs make a huge difference in this game.
