TTF Casuals

Less TTF and more TTS, and even more TTW. But whatever, it’s another ranbat weekend here at the TTF dojo with the introduction of King of Fighters XIII into the lineup. Will the KoF scene suffer the same fate as the other attempts to bring in another wheel? Who knows, but the answer is probably. In terms of games that people are actually playing, it’ll be Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition 2012 in it’s second battle of the fifth season in the SF ranbat series. Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is on its 3rd in the 2nd season. Confusing? A little bit. But again, this season is barely even at the halfway mark so grab a warm jacket and freeze your ass over here at TTF and get some points.

Tourney set ups will be inside and casuals will be outside.

Chrocket has won the tournament!

Like everything that works in seasons, this round of ranbats is coming to its close. But don’t worry, I don’t think we’re getting cancelled anytime soon. A lockout maybe? Oh yeah, MK was sadly cancelled before its time. Kind of like Arrested Development. But yeah, its been another crazy ranbat season that proves that yes, 2 games can coexist together. We saw rising stars in Matt and Skoot for MvC3 and many players proved that they weren’t just good at one game. Its not quite over yet with DiosX and Cody only holding a small lead in their respective games. Will newcomer Matt spoil DiosX’s party? Will Mr. Satisfied fuck over unprotectedSEX? Find out on Friday for the season finale of TTF ranbats.

The last ranbats will take place the Wednesday after Evo. ( 8/ 3). I know people tend to take a “ break” from fighting games after Evo., but T.T.F. will stay on schedule. We will be taking a break from the ranbat system and focus more on level up sessions with the stations. What will the schedule of the month look like? The first 3 or 4 weeks T.T.F. Wednesday nights will be level up sessions or if we don’t get enough people just regular casuals. The level up sessions mostly focus on AE due to that is the most popular game played inSan Diego. And yes I have been thinking of having level up sessions for Marvel but would not want to run it the same day as AE, but back to the schedule. So first 3 or 4 weeks will be strictly level up sessions/ casuals. The last Wednesday will be a tournament for Marvel and AE, to see if the sessions helped you become a better player.

Also when Tekken Tag 2 hits the street you know we’ll have it at T.T.F.

You’ve been checking other players out and you think you’ve found the one. The one you want to ask to be your partner in the first AE team tournament. All your friends are already paired up and you don’t want to be a loner do you? Of course not. But what if they don’t want to partner with you? What if you aren’t good enough? What do you have to offer this player they can’t find elsewhere? Will you win your share of matches? Of course you can, you’ve been owning kids in casuals all night. So you finally muster up the courage to ask this person to play with you and they agree. Sure, you aren’t that bad. You both come up with a name you feel is funny and go to http://shoryuken.com/forum/threads/jul-1-2011-t-t-f-ssfiv-ae-2v2-team-tourney-mvc3-mk-singles-tourney-san-diego-t-t-f.138881/ and sign up. Cool. Now you’re set to play in another one of TTF’s thrilling 2v2 team battles. You also see Marvel and MK is there so fuck it why not and sign up.

Probably based on a true story.

Its that time again San Diego! Time to level up your shit. Also time for delicious boba shakes at Frubble! But anyways its the second season of The Box Arena’s The League and hopefully the recent arrival of AE brings people back out from the Marvel woodwork. Will AlexMan be able to bring up another team to take the championship? Will Viscant have the purest team yet again? Or will one of the new captains take the throne? Anything can happen and you, yes you, can be a part of it.

We’ve heard people say that TTF should be streamed and for a while we’ve stood by the belief that you need to be here to see it. But not anymore! The crew at TTF will be saving up for equipment to start up a modest little stream for future TTF events. But we also need your help! We’ll be taking donations for said equipment and any help would be much much appreciated. Maybe you’ll get like, producer status on the credits or something. So if you’re down to help us kids out, we’ll be taking donations via PayPal and during every TTF. I’ll get a little more in-depth with what we’re trying to achieve later so you know we’re serious about this. To donate click on the banner above.

We here at T.T.F. bring you a fresh new look to ranbats. This will be season 1 for MvC3 and Mk and season 4 for Street Fighter. This new season of ranbats you will need to play with all your heart. The points will count for this one in the end and the 4 players with the most points in the end will get the money. The ranbats will only be $2.00 and will be single elimination until top 8, where the brackets will be reseted and become double elimination. The $2.00 goes to the ranbat pot and in the top 4 will split it (1st- 50%, 2nd- 25%, 3rd- 15%, and 4th 10%). Don’t worry because if you dont make it to top 8 there will be still plenty of casuals and hype. And I will still be throwing Friday tournys, these ones will be double elimination the whole time and the entry fee is a little more for a bigger pot after the May 20th, this coming Friday, the entry fee will be raised to $10.00 that will be going to the pot and an extra $1.00 to the house.
