Looking forward to this, like all the players, I just really hope we don't get Ricky vs Jwong again.

Loving these old matches they're showing during the breaks. Someone should do a retro showcase show, weekly or something.

I walked away for like a minute and the audience is going nuts and the announcers are talking about Justin figuring out some counter to Infiltration's Akuma. What did I miss?

Akuma U2 has always been thought to beat all of rufus's followups to EX messiah, but justin delayed the MK followup and beat the ultra which no one has seen before.

It's pretty well accepted that Akuma's ultra 2 basically 100% punishes a blocked messiah kick from Rufus, but apparently the sweep followup to messiah will get under it and knock Akuma out of it.

vvvv Man, Infiltration really needs a better haircut.

Every time someone tries something against Infiltration you can bet he'll add it to his data, dude's a machine.

edit: This particular instance will help him against the rest of the EG team since Ricky and Floe also use Rufus.

People always want to see an American take out the japanese. Too bad he's still an rear end in a top hat (and personally I want Infiltration or Xian to take it over him).

That's how it's always been. People would always root against Justin in MVC2 but that was all put aside when he played a Japanese player.

HoneyBoy posted:

He actually does use a lot of derogatory terms. I don't know if it's conditioning or what but it seems like people don't hold him against it because they've come to expect this from such a polarizing personality of the FGC who's known for being an offensive rear end in a top hat. I've even see him on his own stream use the word "human being," but when Ricky is over he refrains from using it despite it still entering his mind.

I think it's just the train of continual gently caress-ups ChrisG's been riding lately that highlight anything he does wrong. Someone needs to give these guys some sensitivity training or something.

FChamp does say some really messed up stuff, but he's also in California. When he was growing up, it was a pretty regular thing to use gay and human being as general insults. My female cousins still do it today. He called his entire stream "dumb fucks" because of the chat. For some reason, none of this bothers me as much as ChrisG's behavior.

It's not exactly an excuse. I used to use those words as insults for a few years, too, but then I grew up and realized how wrong it is.

For some reason, ChrisG bothers me and Champ doesn't.

My parents and extended family still throw around racial slurs to describe black people and it still isn't right. Just because "that's the way it is" doesn't make it right.

Sure, but F Champ doesn't seem as bad because it's so absurd.

It's not all black and white.


Also go Xian! He's got a 2nd wind.

Edit: 3-0! Just like that!

Edit 2: and I'm not talking about their use of their slur only. That poo poo doesn't fly. I'm talking about their insufferable personalities in general.

Also trying to watch this so sorry I might seem to be going back and fourth in the conversation.
