NEC Results and Shout-Outs

Yo someone should get them brackets posted. I still have no idea where I placed in singles.

First and foremost, special thanks to Malice and Khent for making the tournament possible for me in the first place. I'll post my props in sets since I don't have a whole lot of time at the moment. But here goes.

RTD - Congrats on the win and the Apprentice gear. Seems the force was with you that day. You were the first person I played, but hopefully we'll get more games in next time (Winter Brawl?) on a non-laggy TV. You made me a believer in your skills that's for sure.

Lolo - I expected you to be good, but not that good, heh. Talim can be tricky to deal with even if you do know how to fight her. You didn't, so it was probably that much harder. You figured it out though and came back on me in our casual sets. I may to go back to the lab and figure out more anti-Yoshi for myself.

Ramon - I still see you as a better player than me, but that gap is getting progressively smaller. Even though I won out in teams, you definitely got your revenge in our MM. I'll keep figuring stuff out though and hopefully be up there with the best one day soon. Way to prove your Sophitia dominance by beating Dina.

Malek - It seems I can't shake you when there's no ring edge. Haha, our first FT5 went down to the wire (damn that super long range CS) but the second one was clearly in your favor with the walls. I consider Ivy to be the worst matchup for her, (besides Algol), but they were entertaining matches regardless.


Shadow G - I never knew you were SolidATLien until I saw the shirt you wore. I do remember playing you online a while ago. After playing you offline, you have a lot of talent. Your ability to adapt is impressive, even though you were probably blown away at first with how to approach a Talim. We did alright as a team, and may have gone farther had I not gotten DQed. Our match in the singles tournament was nerve-racking, especially once you picked Amy.

IMT Dragon - Tira! Tira! Tira! More Tira next time. You were impressive in both tournaments, and showed me a bunch of things I'd never thought of with Tira. I play her a bit myself, but wasn't sure how you were going to play her. Too much aggression to adapt to in a single game. You definitely represented though, and made Tira to look like a legit contender.

Jian - Road trip to Tony Luke's was far more involved than it should've been, but good times. Once again our tournament match was one sided, but this time in my favor. Perhaps a close, down-to-the-wire match just isn't meant to be between us.

That's all for now. To be continued later.
 
Btw ZeroEffect, I saw you play on stream and I have to say you've leveled up immensely since the last time I've seen vids of you play. Which admittedly is a long ass time. Good shit doing as well as you did with Talim. I still don't believe she's any worse than low-mid tier.
 
I'd like to thank Eric and everyone else for such a fun tournament. I was going for a little style this tournament and luckily surpassed even my own expectations.

Oof: mission complete. what is thy next bidding master?

Frenchies: thank you for coming. it really takes courage to come into unknown territory to compete and you all did really well.

props to Malek for that killer look! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyXPyaYkbCw lol keep that shit up. You are indeed a man of no fear.
props to Dina for trying to win teams with forfeits. You are indeed a man of fear.
props to Kira for being a beast! See if you just picked Siegfried, you would've won the tournament :)


Woahhzz: you have natural talent, reflexes and a strong clutch game. these are characteristics that make a true champion. btw, you were quite fascinated with the lightsaber. don't miss it too much and finish your school work!

DreamKiller: you met me in every final in every tournament and you're the first Amy to beat Malek. that says it all.

Roman: you were so purple and hungry to win that i almost caved in. that shit was so intimidating that i was missing my JFs. Damn. Nobody else was going to fuck with that much swagger.

Mick: you're a good player and even a better coach. X is a good character and i'm sure that you'll find a way to consistently perform at the level you're capable of.

Immortal: nice to meet you and very good Tira! our matches were fun and i hope that you continue to be original.

Seung Mina player: don't know your name but we had a fun time kicking it. it was good to meet you.

Jaxel: excellent SC2 play. we are all thankful for your high quality streams, commentary and video archiving. i loved the close ups on this match: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyXPyaYkbCw

Serge: good to see you again man. you always bring the hype to any party.

Sporko: you performed when you had to to keep you pants. that's all that matters in the end.

KIT and brother: nice to kick it with you guys.

Tom Brady: walking around with that mortal combat plaque was priceless. you made me want to bust out my trophy.

Greatone: your hospitality to handle the rooms was much appreciated. anytime you want to play or talk, hit me up.

Kent: it's fun to piss you off. grrrrr.

Malice: keeping it hype as always. good to kick it with you.

Bibulus: top notch commentary. keep up the good work.

Thugish: too bad you didn't show. we missed you. but did you see how quick Dream Killer came in and picked up the Amy slack?

IceColdEdge: bumping heads and kicking it just like old times. i'll hit you up man.

zeroeffect: i knew that i had to play you when i saw how you held your pad on your lap with the the 2 finger grip.

SU: Thanks bro. I know that you would've been awesome on the team. we would've been beasting no doubt.

Lolo: you were one of those people who i struggled with. it was a humbling experience and it got me excited to learn some anti-yoshi strats. it was a pleasure to have you on the team. hasta luego amigo.
Belial: Why thank you. HIlde was a double edge sword for me because she got me easy wins but she got me away from what I do best - defense. Playing a low tier character zones me out better because I come in with the expectation that I have to rely on myself rather than the character to win.

BlackMamba: good to see you again. hop online so we can play every once in a while. maybe you can show me some DOA stuff.

WolfKrone: the original Hilde. Malek and i were watching you play SF4 and we were very impressed to see you holding your own when playing Justin Wong in the finals for SF4. way to rep the SC players! that Viper is sick. can you show me how to play this game?

I know that I missed a few people but you'll already now what's up.

Also, I would like to represent the U.S. in the world tournament again in Cannes and there is a discussion related to unbanning the Star Wars characters.

Good to see that the SC community is still alive and well.

I was also in Tekken singles so I didn't hang around the SC side of the room for long, but good games to the two people I played in tournament (Malek and somebody else).

Was RTD the cat in the costume? Dude scared the shit out of me when I saw him the first time. I actually thought it was someone who brought their blanket from their room because they were cold or something, then I saw the lightsaber and I knew to steer clear, because he probably meant serious business.

Don't think I forgot a soul (tee-hee I said soul.) But if I did, then clearly you weren't beautiful or important.
Love DK.
<3
 
RTD super solid, i will be the first to admit i had doubt in you but it was to bring the best of you out in this tourney.

Malek good job on cleaning me up in the end. I knew it was time to break the tie(3-3) and you finished with flying colors. We will have our time again in SC5 when i return from Afghanistan.

French players, you guys were pretty solid and I cant take that away from you guys. I really wanted to play kira at my best and casuals are not it for me. Dina you are pretty good, I do not know what your outlook is on my after playing me in teams, tourneys, and two MM but i hope you have a better understanding now. I look forward to playing you guys in SC5 also.

Doc you're a cool as guy and I enjoyed my time talking to you. I will we could have played more and we had an xbox to play on. SC5, see you there brotha.

lolo, good job on taking me out. We will play again and I will have the cure to my problem in SC5, I will make a trip to Mexico when I get out the army for one of your tourneys.

To my america friends, i enjoyed seeing you all again and good shit Ramon/DK. Very impressive showing.

DK, you have soooo much untapped potential and I will make sure I bring it out. We need to talk strats because I know you would be the best in the states if you knew a few things I knew about the game. If RTD wasnt my boy, I would have taken you to victory. You was on the right track, but I know amy so well which came to bite you in the ass against him. Next tourney will you dominate no matter who shows up after we talk. You remind me of STD's amy, with better defense.

I hope you all as a community become stronger and run the b*t#c)ers off who try to destroy the community. See you all again in 2012 after I return from Afghanistan.
 
Match Shoutouts:

Triple Jesus - Dammit, I should've used Mi-na. I know her 9K would've friggin worked. But that doesn't necessarily mean I would've won since I was already down two rounds. Good shit.

Woahhzz - I would've been able to pull that team tournament match out of my ass if it wasn't so tight. I can't believe I'm still getting counter hit with 9B. Good shit.

ShadowG - A damn strong player and a pleasure to play against. That FT5 we had was great. I almost can't believe I won that shit. But you raped me hard in SC2 as payback, so good shit.

Docvizzo - Your Setsuka is a nightmare to deal with, and that's with the crappy pad you were using. I have never seen anyone use her close range tools so well. Easily the best Sets I have ever seen or faced. A fine player, and a class act.

Jian - We didn't play, but you would've bent me over if we had. Good shit.

Zack - You gotta break those grabs, man. But at least you don't choke like I do.

Kira - I will be honest here and say I should've put up a much better fight. My mental stability fell apart early on after I got surprised by a few things Cervy had that I didn't know about. I have no excuse other than that I crashed and burned, hard. I dunno, maybe next time. I really wanted to sit down with you and learn Cervy setups and tricks, but it was late and we didn't have the time.

Saion - This is kinda pointless since you don't read the boards, but anyway, I think you know what you've gotta do. It's just a matter of doing it.

Malek - The way I'm fighting now, there's just no possibility of me winning against you. That's why I wasn't upset or frustrated. Because I knew and accepted that I didn't have the skill level to deal with it. When you tell me things like "change character", you have to understand that it is something I flat out refused to do two and half years ago, and I still won't do it now. I just have to get better, period. All that aside, you're one of my most favorite and respected players in this community. Consider me a fan of yours.

Bubs - We got to play offline, finally! I agree that our matches should've been archived. And again, I maintain my innocence - someone said GreatOne won your match. I apologize for not being able to take you back to the train station. I'll make sure to show you better hospitality next time you're in the area.

Dreamkiller - SCRUBBAYS! Dude, I WISH I had come around for the SCIII era. I think both of us were dying of laughter after I peaced out when Taki was about to blow the fucking ship up. And yeah, that bitch with the instruments can go fuck herself, seriosuly. Jokes aside, you played brilliantly in your match against Malek. I don't care if it was Amy, because that was some inspiring shit. Please grab that bastard Ramon and come visit us at Sporko's soon.

Lolo - It was a pleasure to play against what I consider to be one of the best Yoshimitsus in the world. People told us you were gonna be a beast, and you did not disappoint. Luckily for me, I had range that allowed me to contend. I don't think she's strong enough to force an advantage over him, but I will conceed to the fact that he has to work to get in. And I will agree with Ramon on this; STOP JUMPING, because I can't spam throws when you do that!

Regular Shoutouts:

Serge - You are still the man. Were was Klizza this time, though? You should've got me before the No-pants championship match, I would've coached you!

Hubbs - Rob, thanks yet again for another great event. I think a lot of the work you put in to this community is underappreciated. I only wish you and your family the best for all the hospitality you've soon us. Also, I think you have more faith in my ability as a player than I do.

Anthony - Dude, I am not gonna lie; watching you play against Dragon was utterly hilarious. I know the kid is a very sharp player, but seeing you beast with "fuck it, I don't care. 236236B:4!" had me cracking up. Your advice of "That's your girl, you know what to do" should stay with me at all times.

Jaxel - You better put that $10 I gave you to good use for the stream! I love your Talim the most because of the shit that you get away with.

RTD - In addition to being a great player, you are hilarious as shit. The jokes in-between matches during the FT5 with Kira had me in stitches. However, you are banned from using my "14 TV next time since you hurt its feelings. Good shit.

Ramon - Still one of my favorite players to watch after all this time, because I am not a racist. People are scared shitless of your Sophita. Drop by Sporko's sometime.

Juan - The next time I hear you say you suck, I am challenging you to a wrestling match. You are much more competent in this game than you give yourself credit for. Keep your focus and you WILL see success. I always enjoy the little discussions we have about life in general, which is likely because we're of an older generation than most of the folks in the community.

Jrwr7 - Dammit old man, where were you!? Your presence was sorely missed!

350z - Dammit old man that is not as old as Jrwr7, where were you!? Your presence was sorely missed!

Rigel - Don't worry, I didn't feel screwed over or anything. Hopefully I don't see another Philly Sheraton event go by without you there. Next time, tell work to eat dicks.

InsaneKhent - You're a no good choke-artist. It makes me vomit to watch you play in tournament. Drop Mi-na, you fucking dumbass.

I'll probably never give shoutouts again, so forget this shit.
 
I would like to thank my University and the state of New Jersey for shamelessly robbing me blind so that I couldn't afford to come to this .
 
Sean - Thanks man! It means alot to hear that! hopefully JR goes to Sporko's and i'll tag along

Belial - im honored your learning sophie from me :) need any help? ask me anything if you do!

LP - <3 i wanted to beast on everyone! im glad you noticed
 
khent I don't mind the tourney mess up no harm no fowl, it's not like I would ever win a major in my life, plus we caught it and corrected it

also baddass new hans gruber avatar
 
That's Wat I get for tryin to look good =\

AF - How could I forget u. Lol. I love bothering u. And u know about Wat. *kicks leg* ;-)
 
The app outfit was purely epic, and then winning the singles tourney! That was just amazing that a Star Wars character takes the tournament. Nice work RTD.
