The "GGs" Thread! (AKA The Enormous Matchmaking and Rational Beef Resolution Thread)

Lol, gratzi. But to tell you the truth I really wasn’t planning on pulling her out - I was looking forward to taking my Jago for a spin. It says a lot that you made me bring the ghost girl out :thumbsup:

GG goin’ out this time to @Lecter2005 for our double, back-to-back, 1st-to-10 set(s) - he’d been waiting over a week to get the chance to fight me. The 1st set was my Aganos vs. his Arbiter - while not bad, his Arby seemed to miss numerous grenade/carbine opportunities that ultimately cost him; 10-0. The 2nd set, he switched to Fulgore, and showed his true skill by beating me 3 straight matches in a row right out of the gate - his zoning with heavy eye laser and teleport mixups were superb. Unfortunately for him, I still took that set as well, but he certainly gave me a hard time of it; 10-8.

Good job, buddy. :slight_smile:

Thanx for the fights.

It was my very first time against Aganos, except a few ranking fights that I have no memory of.

I was very bad with Arbiter 'cuz I had no idea what to do and arbiter is also a slow character, which doesn’t help.

I did better with fulgore 'cuz he has much more mobility and speed.

My weakness is I don’t know a lot of match up. I have just started to play seriously with you guys since a week.

I hope I’ll get better soon, I don’t want you guys to feel like I’m waisting your time.

I will be the 1st to reassure you, because you most certainly are not. :wink:

I don’t think it was a case of us two being bad, it was just a case of pure confusion with who was who regardlessof colours etc.

GG to both @V8Killa38, a good friend of mine, and @duhgerman1.

The former was a great set that, unfortunately, soured towards the end (I won, 20-something to 6). I’m not sure what happened to be honest, but it seemed like half way through, V8 either gave up, started to let me win, got bored, didn’t care, or maybe even a combination of these (for example, he had an excellent air-game with his Sadira, but then started focusing solely on her ground game, which is basically suicide for her). It kind of tarnished the experience by making it somewhat less enjoyable… :expressionless:

The latter showcased his Arbiter, which was a matchup that I thought I knew, thanks to many sets with @RGLOfficial, but it was quickly made apparent that I was mistaken. What kills me is that he didn’t do anything new or unexpected. I was on the verge of saltiness too because a lot went wrong that, IMO, shouldn’t have, regarding my own play: Lag, random HKs after instinct, wrong moves where another move was intended, no move at all where 1 should’ve been, failed jumps vs. command grab, blocks that didn’t register, dropped combos, wrong enders, failed counter-breakers where it should’ve worked, etc. - the list goes on… That, however, is to say nothing less of good ol’ Duhg - his grenades, carbine shots, command throws, sweeps, parries, flip-outs, pokes, and more were all on point and absolutely lethal. He won, 10-3. I genuinely think he’d give the “official” a run for his money and, I for 1, would like to see that. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I can’t play KI anymore due to broken controllers. Otherwise I would take the challenge!

Thanks, dude. It was an exceedingly informative set. I was gauging his parry with Aganos since some of his normals have awkward startup.
Yeah, the second lag spike hit at a pretty tense moment. I’m connected via Ethernet so maybe it’s cause you’re on the other side of the country? I’m in Southern California.
Hope to catch some sets again soon, I’m tryin to relearn wulf.

Same here, using my older worn controller since my Elite decided to take a dirt nap.
I guess this a lesson to the both of us on buying warranty. :disappointed_relieved:

Yep, that certainly could do it… SIGH

I’m in the process of crowd funding a fightstick lol. I’m so sick of my controllers dying on me.

Ahahaha nice. I’ll contribute one DuhGerman dollar.
What stick are you interested in?

I’ve contemplated on trying one out, but I’ve always been an analog player, so stick feels so foreign and awkward.
