They lucked into it or stumbled into it with the second/third batch of Neo Geo station games, but that was honestly a fluke. SNK giving good netcode? Sounds Greek to me brother.
Kind of surprising to hear that, especially I figured where was a potentially decent-size scene out there (Cali?). I thought Laban wasn't that into XIII anyway, the way he talked about it on SRK compared to the older games. But for the grassroots community building, have you got any suggestions? Lately the best example I keep seeing is the CafeID/SoCal (BALA, Romance, Reynald, Mr. KOF, etc.) way which is a group of guys leveling up from each other, and pushing more tournament efforts themsevels (CafeID). Has worked well for the guys out in Chicago, and other places.
Speaking of CafeID and SoCal, after watching the SB 2012 videos, it's sort of looking like SoCal players are mostly looking for that one great combo opportunity, and Lacid and MAD were assertively picking their moments, like they were playing closer to 98. Anyone else seeing that, or am I reading it differently than most?
