Lol he has.

i dont know how it is in other countrys, but in europe professional gameing isnt considered a job so :/, more like a hobby.

**Krandor** · 2014-07-07 18:21

Considering how few US fighting game players can actually call this a job, I dunno how valid of an argument that is.

And at last check Europe does pretty well in most of other competitive gaming genres.

Depends on the country no? Countries with stable social safety nets and an above-average high standard of living for everybody can support a healthy mix of pro video game players at least in the short term. This leaves out both Americas and most of Europe. Only 1-2 Scandanavian countries and South Korea seem to fit this mold.

Don't forget guys that aren't actually at EVO, we can use the BG Chat on Twitch during EVO. Works better for me that way than the BG Chat here, so :D

I love you niggas but fuck that i'm goin to a pubstomp

Methinks Evo is around the corner, online play is tier whore central right now. Yun as far as the eyes can see.

**Vandole** · 2014-07-07 19:58

i have yet to play against a yun online and i play him >.>

edit: wtf do i do against bison? i feel like i cant footsie because he'll just bicycle kick.

**Chun Liroy** · 2014-07-07 20:14

Get better footsies.

**Krandor** · 2014-07-07 20:33

Learn the range where Lk scissors whiffs and MK will be two hits (and thus unsafe on block). Bison literally can't do shit at that range.

He also has issues with dive kicks since he requires different moves to AA the various versions, and he if guesses wrong he'll take more damage then if he guessed right (a heavy normal vs a full combo)

**Deejay** · 2014-07-07 20:36

Yeah I sucked at the bison matchup until I sat down with flash and he showed me where to stand. It's retarded boring to play because all you can do is whiff punish and anti air in that MU, and neutral jump when you feel a scissor coming

**Xno Kappa** · 2014-07-07 21:55

Just pick Guile.

**Krandor** · 2014-07-07 22:43

I was doing some training room practice against a CPU Guile, and even the fucking computer can body the shit out of me in that matchup.

It's still easily one of the worst matchups in the entire game, though I think Guile/Hugo might be crossing the barrier into worst overall, probably even past Blanka/Hawk.

**Deejay** · 2014-07-07 22:53

God I wish you guys knew how bad Dudley/Gief is.

I play dudley, and i'll avoid this match like the fucking plague.

**Chun Liroy** · 2014-07-08 00:05

Just watch smug vs snakeeyes and realize the amount of risks smug had to do just to get a single win.

**Chun Liroy** · 2014-07-08 00:32

So upon further examination of the evo schedule, the only thingn for KoF being streamed is finals. And it's going to be on friday, not sunday.

Wow.

**Vandole** · 2014-07-08 00:35

i'm pretty sure kof is saturday. you're thinking tekken.

**Chun Liroy** · 2014-07-08 00:41

I meant to say saturday, yeah. I was just looking at the schedule and my brain just done goofed.

**octopus** · 2014-07-08 08:41
