Ahh yes. I am sure Nike is just chomping at the bit to associate themselves with a porn company. Sorry that's not the way the world works. Mainstream sponsors hate controversy. If Brazzers sponsored a NASCAR team all of the other sponsors would immediately pull out.
NASCAR and FGC are leagues different. Terrible comparison.

Your missing the point though. This could be the start of companies who don't have any association with gaming sponsoring players. I also wouldn't compare the FGC to NASCAR, I would say it's more MMA\UFC seeing as how both communities seem to of had very controversial up bringings. I say bring it on, this has people talking!
So I was watching toryuken, Hoping that this very own Bill307 is the same guy commentating, because I have questions for Skullgirls :D
Honestly, I don't have a ps3, but I've been doing really well just zoning with Peacock/Parasoul forever, and there's something I've noticed about peacock players that maybe you guys could shed more light on (since you may be playing this more often than I do)
1. No one likes the bomb super to control space? 2. I don't really know how the item drop is homing, Maybe i just don't notice it based on the strength of the item drop stuff. 3. Are slow bomb -> teleport to otherside worth it as a setup?
anyway, outside the lack of combos (anyone can suggest for me as well :D) feel free to critique two videos of mine (I'm TXO-Promil kid)
so far, I didn't know back then that you can super after peacock's grab. Any more help? I'm really liking SkullGirls as I come from a very competitive MvC2 background :D
Anyway, about the tournament series. Lots of players looking to train hard for it but also lot of criticism (notably. Why HDR over ST and why HDR instead of UMvC3 just because UMvC3 doesn't have "Street fighter")
What do you mean how the item drop is homing? It's the heavy version that homes as long as you hold it, however if you let go while in blockstun it won't fall until you're out of blockstun.
I don't like the super bomb just because it blocks my own projectiles. I've used it a couple times in goofy situations where someone would die to chip and just stood in it so they couldn't come combo me but... I don't know of any real uses so far lol
watching those videos, I'm sure you've leveled up a good bit in the last few weeks, but random notes on peacock (im ass with parasoul so I wont comment there lol):
When you're doing j.fp to make space, I like to cancel it into airdash back & possibly another j.fp to push back even further. Works well against a lot of characters, though filia can blow up a jump back fp with her iad j.fp, so watch out against her =(
using things like the st.fp gun but not cancelling seems like a waste. put a bomb on the screen or start an item drop. Common thing I do once I have a little space is st.fp + assist (I use double) xx heavy item drop. then throw the lk bomb and save the hk bomb for if they jump is my most basic pattern when I've gotten away fully.
another big thing is just to have a heavy item drop charged as often as possible. at full charge its an overhead, hits wherever, very few things can outrun the homing. it basically makes your zoning trap a ton scarier because you can instantly cover a gap if they break through and confirm it into a super or worse
when you're confirming off qcf + fp guns into super, use 2 shots instead of 3, tends to juggle a lot more consistently that way (3rd hit often pops em up too high)
I wish I had a match of my own to show what I mean but the one tournament I've attended with a stream decided not to stream any skullgirls T_T
If you haven't learned your bnb's yet go do that! If you can play Iron Man, nothing can be too hard for you My basic bnb is:
with parasoul assist you could probably do something like lp, mp, mk, j.lp, j.lk, j.mp adf (pause) j.lp, j.mp, st.lp, st.mp + assist, cr.mk xx heavy item drop, super, item drop hits, super
and for meterless damage, just do lp, mp, hk xx heavy item drop (don't charge it), lp, mk, j.lp, j.rh, air dash j.fp you can do better meterless stuff but I've been lazy on optimizing that one lol
I haven't played since then I've barely played the game since I don't own a console. The bomb does block my projectiles, but I can use it to push people into the corner. Sometimes I even burn my projectile super to push the bomb towards them as well for more pressure.
Lots of things like the j.fp thing, two shots to confirm to super I didn't know as well as the BnB's, I'll take note of that. Thanks! :D I figured about the homing drop as someone told me. I still fnd lp drop a bit useful sometimes.
Going to take this into the lab. I haven't played Ironman (MvC2) in a loooong time, but I'll take your word for it hahaha.
