Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Discussion Thread

BigStupidGuy

Yeah no worries I'll be there lol.

Now we just need Mad Axes eh? And finally we'll know who's Chang's of Ireland.

Fergus_

Yesssssssssss, Fatal Four Way for Changs of Ireland!

BigStupidGuy

I saw that on his TZ profile lol. Is he and MA in a bit of a scuffle? I couldn't find any flame wars on the Jaycee forums

Fergus_

Not sure if it's genuine or not haha, Anwar isn't too fond of MA spreading all this info on TZ about in game experiences and what stuff shouldn't work vs good players etc. when he hasn't played offline at all vs top players.

BigStupidGuy

That's the crux of it all right.

Macal

Hopefully I can do Wednesday

BigStupidGuy

It'll be worth it.

Fergus_

Ok, the session is gonna be on from 2-3 tomorrow with Iron Lobster, the people that are going, can you come in that early? He's only gonna be around for a hour or 2.

BigStupidGuy

Yeah I like early. I'll grab a bus to get in for a bit before 2 then. I'll go straight to the XGC unless you need me to go get him at the spire?

Macal

sure, no problem. I'll be in for 2.

Ixayek_usurper

I'll make this too.

Fergus_

I don't mind what you want to do @ Eoin, just lemme know before then

BigStupidGuy

Sure I'll leave it to you so. I'll just meet you at the XGC around 2, Although I'll be there a bit before I think.

Good to see you guys coming!

MazManZero

Good sessions today. :V

In like, Stansted airport or something, staying with people in London (CKT group) then Manc tourney on Sat, then HoG overnight session on Sat and finally London kumite on Tekken Tuesday at HoG with myself on stream playing their best in FT3/5s in a row.

Will link streams as they're up !

Just back at the house from the tourney, I came 2nd out of 56, was pretty stacked.

My match vs Menace in brackets was soooooo close, went down to the last round, I realllllly wanted to be the one to put him into losers as he was the favourite to win, but alas I couldn't close the round and messed up BIG time : (

I kinda tore through losers to make it to loser finals vs Aaron (AzyG4lyf), pretty emotional match as we know each other really well and we're on the same team. I went through then played Menace in GF and he won : (

Really fun event, only thing that kinda irked me was how many CKT people got paired up early in the brackets, leading to quite a few getting eliminated within their first few matches, but other than that, sick event overall.

Pffft, 1st or bust tbh.

Congrats FergyChan, that's awesome!

BigStupidGuy

Yeah Fergus, 2nd place is just another word for a loser.

Bahhh! That's great man! You did a lot of people proud, Iron Lobster's words on TZ were not "too kind" after all.

MazManZero

:V

Jokes aside; nice one on getting 2nd place.

Grand Finals at WR3! Those electrics have a truly depressing hitbox and tracking.

That's it, I'm going to EVO.

IRON LOBSTER

Thanking everyone for your hospitality and GGS last Wednesday!!!

Consider yourselves welcome at the pub in Northampton England where we hold our sessions.

Sadly, like so many sell outs, I generally correspond with other gamers on FB, FG groups but I'll still post Tekken related stuff for posterity on TZ so I'll see you there!

Fergus - Well done at WR3, totally earned it bro. Sticking to Kazamas could have won you the whole thing though. That first match with Gabriel was close.


Maybe one day MA will grace us with his/her's hooded and silent presence...Then again...Maybe he was there last week and we didn't know...Proper Assassin's Creed...

BigStupidGuy

I'm still totally convinced that guy who always plays PlayStation Home is Mad Axes.

Fergus_

The way I felt was, if I had to play Jun vs Menace, I would have had to outmove/outpoke him and only inflict chip damage on him because he very very rarely whiffs so I can't land f2s and I can't throw him since his throw breaking is like the best in EU.

So I felt I could experiment with Julia (if I can't outpoke/move, I can at least out mixup him and use her deja vu/iSWs/wardrums etc. to break him down) then Miharu with BT grabs into oki to get momentum going.

Idkkkk, I'll be playing him again tomorrow so I'll have more games to experiment for new teams!

And thanks! Come again soon!

Macal

You and Menace you should do it like this; you have to switch to a different team every time you lose and you cannot use that team and you can only pick mains as your last team. You and Menace play like 10 or 20 teams, so it should be grand.

Ramza

Gus I thought I wrecked you enough times with my gdlk DJ to make you know that matchup (ask DooM, he knows how sick my DJ is )

Joking aside, you're obviously a much better tekken player than me, and it's good to see you do well in a tournament, especially abroad and getting more irish exposure. Big respect for that gus! If I come to the all nighter we'll have to get some games in for sure

Fergus_

Thanks Ramza >
