--- Quote from: Kajoq on June 29, 2008, 09:47:30 pm ---It was a Fighter tourney in Atlanta.  Had basically everything that is played:

Marvel vs Capcom 2
Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo
Third Strike
Tekken 5 DR
Smash Bros Brawl
Alpha 3
KOF XI
CVS2
Vampire Savior

And Marvel is definitely unbalanced, but its also a LOT more fun that SvC chaos lol.  Theres a lot of execution and yomi layering that goes into Marvel.  Im a decent Marvel player, but ATL has some really sick players.  Magneto/Storm are just absurd in that game, one touch death from basically any hit, and the ability to force high/low mixups all over the place.
 If you want to play a good old school style crossover game... get on Capcom vs Snk 2, its about a 1000x better than Chaos.

Looks like I need to go to the ATL and get in on KoF XI. I play EVERY old school fighter and between the X Box Ps2 Arcade, MAME and what have you I have every mainstream fighter and while CvsSNK 2 is better than SvC Chaos, Pokes and other traps make it annoying as hell. Now that I really think about it, there aren't many BALANCED 2d fighters around. 3rd strike is one, and I'll go on a limb and say KoFXI is (arcade version not the PS2 one with the extra characters) 

  BTW  what the hell is Yomi layering?
Kajoq:
Lol, 3rd Strike is FARRRRR from balanced.  Theres basically 3 chars worth playing: Yun, Ken, Chun-Li.

Unfortunately, KOFXI was actually one of the games with the smallest turnout.  They almost didn't run it at all

Super Turbo is pretty well balanced, with the exception of Cammy and N.Hawk.

If you want to play a really balanced and under appreciated game you should really check out Vampire Savior.  Silky smooth engine, every character is completely viable (but Sasquatch is definitely top tier), awesome character design, great pace to it... I could go on and on.  haha.

Yomi layers is basically taking mindgames to a whole new level.  Risk/Reward trees and such.
Its a whole lot of if I do this he could do this or that
If he does this I could do Y
If he does that I could do X

and deeper and deeper...

That Yomi layering is pretty interesting. Do you play any fighters online?
Kajoq:
I sure do,  Mostly on GGPO.  I need to get around to checking out 2df sometime soon as well.  I play a lot of Super Turbo and Vampire Savior online... probably going to start being on Alpha 2 a lot more because i'm getting a board and want to get better.  Hit me up on AIM or something sometime and we can try to get some matches in.  my sn is the same as here: Kajoq
