You heard of the Wong factor, now jump to 7m40s to see "The Beast" factor.
Watch what happens when Alex Meyers is about to win a FT3 MM vs Daigo.

We had a funny meeting earlier. We're supposed to take ownership of some

While the developers were giving us an overview of the system I stopped
them and asked "what happens when things go wrong?"

Hilarity ensued.

Apparently their support structure is non-existent. The users added all
the developers onto a WhatsApp group and they send them messages any time
of the day. "I don't have stock" "My tasks are not appearing" "What does
the fox say" "How do I shot web". That's the equivalent of Pick n Pay
phoning the people who installed their shelves to ask why no stock was
delivered.

We have quite a few months to prepare so we're good for time. We've had
our initial meeting so what we can do is start doing some dry runs at Kami
to test our theories. I'm relieved that we didn't have too many hiccups
with PS4 streaming. The controller issues will require some attention, but
other than that, things are looking good. I'd also like to give your
whatsapp idea a shot to see how it works in practice.

I think we can start registrations a month prior to the actual event.
I'll ask Kami to assist with advertising and the like.

HAHA I am glad you enjoyed it LB :p

As a scholar you really shouldn't need mage's ballad (because you
have aetherflow and energy drain) BUT if she is spamming aldo like she
says
she is then I am pretty sure she will run low on mp :)

The lyrics "My resurrection keeps the dragoons off the ground" is
also quite funny because the community have come to term dragoon's as
"floor inspectors" because they have such bad defense and always dying
(some raid groups refused to party with dragoon's before they received
several buffs). I think they did buff their defense in one of the patches
but I still think that their magic defense is quite bad.

Wow that just seems so broken. The brokenness aside, is Kitana any
good in this game - she use to be one of my favourite MK characters (I
know
that mournful is suppose to be her worst variation?). I have kind of been
holding off getting the game, tbh I don't really like the animations of
the
newer MK games - they don't seem to be as smooth as other games. Is it
just
me or does Mileena and Kitana's heads look a little big in proportion to
the rest of their body? It might be some thing else, like Mileena's hair
making her head look bigger than it actually is.

From a none bias point of view does MKX have any longevity/ staying
power - or will it fade out in a couple of months time?


On a side note, I found this youtube video earlier hours of this
morning:

For anyone that played Final Fantasy A Realm Reborn, it's
definitely worth a listen - it is basically a parody "aetherflow" based
on
the Disney's frozen "let it go" The lyrics are really awesome and
JessPlays
shows off a lot of talent signing it (so it might be worth a listen even
if
you never played the game).

It's basically about the struggles of DPS with long duty finder
queues (in this case a Black Mage) and then she changes to a healer
(Scholar) and experiences the benefits of insta-queues. I think if you
ever
player scholar you would really appreciate/ understand the lyrics -- the
highlight for me is "I'm never going back, except to get swiftcast" :p

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4akl6AUj_JM


She also sings "Do you want to Kill a Titan" but lyrically its not
as good.

You will see Kenshi in tournaments because there are

Erron Blacks command grab is fully duckable at all

Goros command grab is definitely not duckable...
however
ducking
greatly reduces the grabs effective range. If the
opponent
is
ducking then
goro can grab you at roughly normal command range

its slightly(very slightly) less than the distance

And this refers to ducking without block. If you
