Canada Cup: EG.JustinWong Part 2 [FINAL]

It was interesting to talk to Justin Wong during Canada Cup. He was telling me that I could have made Top 3 in Marvel and that if I played Floe it would have been a good match.

Justin also said that I had potential, but that I lacked the ability to attend every event. I explained to him that it's pretty hard since I don't have a sponsor. I continued saying that the only support I have is my job and that it is very hard to travel with your own support.

It's always in the back of my head that traveling on my own money means I have to break even. Sometimes I don't want to think about that and would just like to compete. It also stresses results since breaking even means getting top 3 or top 8.

However, there was something Justin and I had talked about that really brought controversy to what I believed. After I had lost to Mago, I sat down and gave Justin his stick back.

Canada Cup: EG.JustinWong Part 1

It was the day before Canada Cup and the venue had just opened. Players were handed their dog tags and VIP passes were given. There were setups where money matches were held for both AE and MVC3.

As soon as I got there I saw who I wanted to play for quite some time. That person was Justin Wong himself. I've always wanted to play him in both AE and Marvel.

The last time I had played him was during ReveLAtions and I lost 0-2 quite quickly. I finally got to sit down with him and play a first to three.

The first set was like a shock to me. My idea was to play the match-up the way I had played against Ricky Ortiz. However, I was in for a quite surprise.

Thanks Giving Present!

Happy Thanks Giving to all! I had a great holiday with the family! We had great foods and stories to share with each other. I hope you guys enjoyed your holidays so far.

On this note, I have a special treat for you guys!

Canada Cup: eLive.Pro|Kazunoko

I was watching Kazunoko play from the side while studying him. He played so calculated. On top of that, he did not give respect to his opponent. He knew when to mash on his three frame jab and up-kick his way out of pressure. With that in mind, I tried to use that to my advantage when I played him during casuals.

Canada Cup: MCZ.Tokido

As I saw my pools early in the morning I recognized two names. They were Tokido and Starnab. I was confident in seeing their names since I felt comfortable in those match-ups.

Let me set the scenario. I met up with Air before AE singles started. He asked me who was in my pool. I told him that Tokido and Starnab were in my pool. However, Air had told me that Starnab did not attend and that they replaced Starnab with another European Sagat player (who I beat to face off against Tokido in my pool finals).
