I hope so anything is possible

Plus I have 5 months to practice so we'll see

Probably very bad but I'm going to give it a shot. I'd say I'm just above average right now so maybe I can become Pro level in the next 5 months

would it be worse to get perfected off rip, or to get reverse classic'd and perfected in the process?

What's the worst kind of player to get triple perfected by?
Drunk guy mashing buttons? Fat guy who talks like an Organisation XIII member? Something worse?

No I'm a slightly above average player that worked my way up from being a terrible player in the beginning of Tekken 7. Im normally used to playing Dragon Ball fighting games

I see the areas of improvement that I can make to become competitive though

I also was able to beat a Pro player and break his 56 game win streak online one time in Tekken 7 (caught him slipping a bit)

So with the idea that maybe I can pull off a miracle I'm going to take a chance at Evo this year

Perfected off rip because then I'll feel like I wasted a trip just to get slaughtered in game 1 and I didn't even get to get any play time at least

Drunk guy mashing buttons would be embarrassing but at least I'd have a funny story to tell and I like to laugh.

The fat guy would be annoying. I think the worst option would be an extreme s*** talker who talks crap before, during and after the match and backs it up by getting a perfect on me all the rounds. They would be demoralizing

I got to living legend last summer and thats where I'll leave it. My team was usually Bardock, Super Brolly Yamcha

I think the game is on its final balance patch and Aohan and Bluegeta are super strong right now fwiw, but I know tekken is the hotness at the moment

That's cool because Bluegeta was bottom tier for a long time if I remember correctly. That's cool he's top tier now

On the one hand, describing yourself as "slightly above average" makes me think you'll get demolished early. But you managed to beat a player that was in the top 100 for a while. Will be interesting

Maybe I'm underestimating myself, I just remember being so bad that it's hard for me to describe myself as good.

Currently my rank in T8 is Tenryu, and I think if I do another ranked session and stay focused I can maybe rank up to the Ruler ranks

That's cool. I'm gonna take this opportunity to rank up some more in FighterZ as well. Even though I'm satisfied with my rank. I used to be a dark blue square player in FighterZ when it came out. 2D fighting games weren't my strong suit. But I love Dragon Ball so I played the game heavy regardless

I actually never thought I could make even living legend back in the day, but they added more ranks on top of living legend so making living legend back when it came out is probably not the same as it is today

Yeah I think Red Ranks are about average to slightly above average in Tekken 8. I think in Tekken 7 it was the beginning of being really good though

right right, I was stuck at supreme kai for a while, and todays living legend probably isn't much different. I usually do fine at yellow square, get murdered by reds, then become yellow again

I don't know. I think they should bring it back to Evo though along with bring back FighterZ again

Also Soul Calibur 6

Thanks I appreciate it. I really am going to go in with the intention of pulling off an upset.

But I'm also going to keep the carefree mentality. That is what might give me an edge

Do my boy Law proud. The only fighting game I feel like I probably had a shot at tournaments is MKX. All other fighting games, I rank "great" at the casual level. Which is say, I'm miles above my friends, but absolute could not hang with pros.
