SFA3- Ok, I admit! I suck at the Alpha series, with alpha3 being no
exception! Todd Dwyer wiped me out with an XRolento on crack! Killed my X
Ryu in seconds. He then proceeded to kill my X Rolento. My first loss. I
played atleast 2 more opponents, where I ended up on top. I then had to
fight Omni. I thought I'd be dead. But I beat him just using simple X Ryu
tactics...he shoulda won though. I know he's better than me in A3. What was
really funny was the amount of people that fell for my fake! It's the old
skool fake at the beginning of the round....short hurricane kick into
X-super!! So simple, yet soooo many people fell for it! So, if it aint
broke, don't breakdance! Right?! I finally lost to an Dhalsim player(The
guy was black, and wore glasses). He was a great all around Dhalsim player
on all games. The rest of the Texas team was wiped out early on that game.
I was amazed on that V-Akuma combo(not Daigo's)! The one with that back
splash thingamajiggie! Then that V Rolento cornercombo! That was sick
shit! I liked it tho! Very unique.
ST Tourney- To be honest, I had more fun in practice than playin in the
actual tourney! I played two guys(don't know who, tho) and then I had to
play Seth Killian. He should change his name to Seth Killa-man! He and I go
back and forth in practice, with him winning the majoriity of the time. He
beat me with his crazy Chun Li and gave me ny first loss. After that I had
to face Omar Deloney! They called my name and they said I was facing Omar.
I was like "Oh shit!" I figured since he and Big Daddy Chris play Ken vs
Fei all the time, it would be a really tuff match! He won a round with a
weird ass straight up jump kick through the tip of my flame kick! WEIRD!!
But, my Fei managed to beat him. An awesome game indeed!
I think I had to fight John Choi next, I don't really remember. His MACHINE
GUN OG Sagat killed me!! I only got a round off of him. Maybe next time, eh
John? Watching John comeback and win all his matches from the losers bracket
was a sight to see! Gary was good, but John got him! In fact, Gary and the
rest of the East Coasters were all excellent ST players! Even that guy who
had long hair and a goatee was awesome with a mean Honda! I did my best
with Fei, having 4-8-even 12 game winning streaks. Seth also had great win
streaks. Impressive for anyone to do considering the amount of competition
there! My God, I dragon kicked through so many projectiles that weekend, it
was insane! Especially that crazy comeback on that Dee Jay player! I had a
hair of energy, he had 90+% energy. A few rekkas, a throw, and one awesome
dragon kick through his MaxOut in the corner for a dramatic finish! I had to
slam my fist on the machine scream like Michael Jackson(WooooHooo!) But ya
know what? The whole time I could hear my fellow ST players talkin
sarcastically behind me quoting Jason Wilson's words "Oh Jesse's Fei Long is
WAY TOO OVERRATED!" That had to be the quote of the weekend for me. I never
heard Jason Wilson actually tell me that, and certainly something I wouldn't
expect from him at all. I do remember him posting a reply to an Xband
question on the newsgroup...comparing my Fei to some guy named
Rekka-Ken...anyways Jason said "I played both of them. Jesse's Fei is good,
but on arcade? Forget it!" Hmmmmm.....lemme see, at the SHGL ST Tourney
held on E3 weekend I won all the games straight in a row...only losing one
round to you. I beat your Guile, Bison, and Sagat. I don't think my Fei
is overrated.....I'm no different than Seth and his ChunLi/Balrog or Choi
and his OG Sagat. Regardless, I still think everyone will continue to use
that funny quote so long as I continue to play SF!!
SF3 Second Impact- I BEAT HENRY CEN!!!!!!!! THE CHINA TOWN SELF PROCLAIMED
MASTAH!!!! I BEAT HIM!!!!!!!!! KILLED BOTH HIS YANG AND HUGO!!!! WITH MY
BASIC BOOTY SKILLS DENJIN RYU!!!!!! Ok, sorry I had to say that......I just
had to do it.....HAAAA!!!!! I BEAT YOU HENRY!!!!! BROKE YOUR EXCALIBUR!!!!
ok das enuff!
Eddie Lee's Ibuki is sick!!!! Very annoying, very effective!! Props to
him.
That John B. guy(chubby Yang player who was kickin everyones ass in
ChinaTown with 26+wins) that guy was good, with trix we all kept falling
for! Good nonetheless.
Just glad to see my boys place in the top 5 (Mike Zavar, Juan Gonzales, and
Alex Valle) Great job fellas!
Alpha 2- I suck at this game....Rob whipped my ass with booty-ass alpha
counters with Ken. Fuck you Eminem!! =) Then I almost beat Wes
Truelson's Sakura with my Runaway rolento, but he ended up gettin me with
crossup super combos!! Then came the torture!! Watching Thao and David
Sirlin go at it......damn fellas!!! How patient can ya'll be??? A really
great series. Sirlin has that shit down to a patented art form! And Thao,
you're just straight up OG! It was awesome how u wiped out both Valle and
Choi without giving them a round!!
Hyper Fighting- Was it me, or was that shit TOOO SLLOOW!!!?? Playin in
that tourney was plain fun, tourney or not! Brought back insane memories!
LOW SHORTSHORTSHORTSHORT-BLAMSTANDING FIERCE!!! Crazy shit!! Choi was doin
that stuff..so was Apoc with his Balrog. Seth, Valle, Apoc, Choi, and me
were havin a blast on that game while the MvsC Tourney was goin on. I got
5th in that tourney.
MvsCapcom-Ok......can you say DOUBLE WAR MACHINE???? I hate that damn
game!! Can u imagine playin that game on acid??? Looks cool, but I cant tell
what the hell is goin on!!! I just watched the energy meters the whole
time!! Ocasionally I'd watch the missles launch, but I stuck to the energy
meters. I stopped watchin after Valle lost, and continued to play Hyper
Fighting.
What the hell happened after the tourney??!!! No one had a ride to go
anywhere!!!! I rode with cole on the front seat back to the hotel! My boy
Adrian and Chris had to take 8-10 people to the airport, taking the scenic
route in NYC the whole time!! I bet you guys looked like the GRIZWALDS!!
We slept all day Monday...and left that night.
