That message at the end of the episode is great for one KEY reason. The person who sent that message, their name is XxCiTiZ3N SnIpS. Such an awesome Futurama reference!
I remember playing this guy. He was one of the last videos on my channel for Super then I didn't do anymore until AE. He's legit and Mike is right about the Cody vs Blanka matchup being annoying.
Great vids. But these guys are total a-holes in responding to messages. Might as well not answer their messages instead of making fun of people who's only crime was compliment the show or ask for a sparring match.
and thus we see the only blanka player that 1.doesnt spam blanka balls. 2.doesnt spam electricity. 3.ACTUALLY HAS COMBOS. 4. doesnt do that annoying hop and grab the entire match. 5.has EXCELLENT meter management. 6.and isnt an annoying douche that taunts the whole match. i hope he tears it up at evo!
I'm excited for octopus on fire to bust out his costume and his methods of distraction to give the evo players a run for their money :) Gootecks is right he would be perfect at the Rio for EVO 2011. Where exactly in the Rio is it happening though?
I once played a set against OctopusOnFire offline at a casuals session and he bodied the hell out of me all day haha! I might have taken 1 game maybe. Props, Ben, for not only getting on the show, but showing people some of that midwest prowess! :D
I've said this before and no one replied so I guess i seemed like an idiot, but does someone wanna try and help me out with street fighter. I truly want to be good at this game, and practicing on my own isnt helping. XBL Gamertag is Dys3nt3ry Al3x
@Dirapl0x I would like to get better at this game as well but i literally got it 4 days ago so i cant help u but if u wana play some online let me know and ill add u
I'm in the shower minding my business, washing up and watching crosscounterTV before hitting the gym. And then a message pops up, "I like Mike's curly pubic hair" I looked at my own and couldn't stop LMAO.
@pivotdude7811 Throwyuken is way better than octopus. Throwyuken makes Jwong seems like trash. He could easily make top 3 evo if he cared at all about videogames.
It sucks Honda is crap now. Mike Ross doesnt seem like he'll be really into AE. He's pumped about SF X Tekken and has been playing that. Not sure about Gootecks. I know he's pumped about that new 3rd Strike game coming out. Pretty disappointing, I'd really like to see them get into AE. I want to learn more about the changes in action and as amusing as these vids are, they are also very informative.
They aren't crying about the outfit, they use the outfit themselves. They just like pointing out how ridiculous it is, especially in a game where strict hitboxes are the bible to players.
@TheC0unt5 Them too are no exempted from being lame as hell the only problem is that what is truly a shoto, does the character match that, then finding that number of lame ass characters.
Yep played IOctopusOnFireI many times..found myself saying "Really?" , "What am I doing?" as well. Still enjoy the show. Every match is a learning experience
Mr. Octopus, Mr. " I have not played a better Blanka."
You have the potential to become.. wait, you are American, right? Okay, I checked.. now, you have the potential to become America's Champion. Make my dream come true and bring home the gold.
@0ctopus0nFire You're an excellent player. I'd rather get beaten to death by your Blanka countless times than me beating scrubby Blankas all the time.
@smurfx I don't think that Gootecks wants to play MvC3 anymore now that he competetive level starts to look like it was MvC2. The combos are too crazy.
