SCV UK Launch Event By Namco Bandai & Gamespot
- Thread starter Malice
- Start date
My stick broke halfway through the day, so I had to use the new SCV TE, which didn't agree with me, execution went down the toilet, I wasn't happy, lol.
On a happy side note though: Duncan, Talon, myself, Joel and Shawn have been offered potential sponsorship! ^^

Now, my very brief first impressions on the Alpha Pat X O Pyrrah matchup from playing Talon and getting back to training mode:
O Pyrrah has her flaws, I've had a chance to train against her in practice after playing Talon and I feel this matchup is actually in Alpha's favour - he wins on throws, pressure and punishment. The best part is, its a lot safer to lame it out and turtle with A than it is for O from what I can tell, if your execution is good enough, you can easily keep up on damage and I would argue take advantage in all close to neutral frametraps that O can dish out. Because of this, O has to use her collossal damage potential to force an answer and that means the TAS B throw mixup has to stay for this game, but A can punish it for 80ish dmg a go. With meter, I feel O wins as her 44B+K?BE can set up some sick mixups and her CE is basically A's, but a LOT more damage. I feel she also has the upper hand on RO potential and really takes advantage of A's weak guard crush game, to the point where I think A suffering 1 in a 3 round match is almost unavoidable. O has a lot of staple moves that are umbrella punishable which she must use to try and find an opening, so this matchup rarely for her revolves around high risk (for once)/high reward.
In summary of my chaotic collection of impressions:
Alpha Patroklos should turtle up in this fight, punish consistently and save meter for the CE, only using BE's if meter will stay above 1 as it is such a game changer. Three umbrella punishes will kill, so patience I feel is the key in this matchup.
Omega Pyrrah should answer this with positional rushdown, using her wicked close range pokes and try to bait umbrellas for TAS B into okizeme to keep up on damage. Much of her staple setups and attacks are ferociously high rish for her in this matchup so you have to bait into high garunteed damage, which again is risky in this matchup. She does however build meter quickly and has a vastly superior version of Alpha Patroklos' CE and so takes an advantage in later stages of the game, assuming you are willing to save up early on. She completely dominates him in guard crush, so dish out those 66Bs where possible and take half bar for your troubles when it breaks - Alpha has a lot of difficulty avoiding a state of guard crush here I feel.
This matchup, I am certain is close and in a high level match I feel it will largely come down to who has the superior throw game on the day, but nevertheless I currently see this matchup as a 6:4 in Alpha Patroklos' favour, though it is only early impressions, so take it with a grain of salt.
