Riot 396

[Justin Raze]

Personally, I think this was a great episode of riot but I felt my match being main ever was all wrong. The match felt boring to play and watch, but that's just my opinion.

I'm curious to see the fallout of setting the boondocks ablaze, it's like most of the active roster now have a finger in the Family's pie, it's all coming together nicely for a final showdown, maybe.

The way it looks to me - KD, Mugen, RK and Minio vs Trance, Suda, Crowe and Cobra.

Which is good, if it wasn't the entirety of our roster outside of Cobra, Raze and Lee

When looking at Raze and Lee being engulfed with The Family there's not really a sensible way for that to work right now.

The only thing that would work is if Raze and Trance wanted to end the war between them. Raze vows to finish this once and for all and Raze comes in bringing backup, which would be Austin Lee.

Other than that scenario, I don't really see a way for that to be a good idea right now...Unless The Family came in and kicked us in the face.

You really need to read things properly. I said you guys are all roster wise that would be left over, not that I'm looking to involve you.

No I understood we would be but the point that I was making was that even if me and Austin were going to get involved there's not really a good way for us to get involved right now.

You need not worry about what isn't going to happen...

[Pugh]

Active roster you say?

[Justin Raze]

You need not worry about what isn't going to happen...

Frankly I'm fine with that.

I'm more curious to see where me and Austin working together will take us and what it will become. It's still so new of a partnership I'm not sure what will come of it.

And I more want to continue to develop my character and get into some solid feuds before I start worrying about you again.

You gave my guy hell leading up to Lution. Still have the boot print from Eli's foot...

I dunno if this is a thing here but in the NHL scene, the game, including the competitive leagues, normally dies a death around July/August.

It's mostly because by that point, Hockey season is done for the summer, and because the upcoming game comes out in September, so everyone gets burned out, takes a break, then the leagues break records with new signups leading into the next season a few months later.

I really believe that 2K15, barring any horrific revelations about CAW modes sucking or the reveal that there is no online CAW play or something, will bring in a new major boom period for OCW.

We just have to hit the ground running on 2K15. We have to put together some good videos in a hurry. Good attires, good characters, and most importantly, and I'm looking at you Brennan, Dan, Kent, Gerald, Tobin, you guys have go to put on a fucking highlight reel of great matches right out of the gate.

People are going to be looking for something JUST LIKE THIS. I know because I spent a number of years looking for something JUST LIKE THIS every time the new year came out.

We have a core roster here. It's not much at a glance but this roster's balls are collectively dropping and it will be the backbone of the next era. The experience we built up in this down period will build a better roster in the near future. I know that the vets have all lived through this shit before and look what it did to them. It turns a stinking piece of worthless coal like Dan into a main event draw. It made him a butt rocking diamond.

Stop focusing on the doom and gloom and just do what you can now to contribute, get noticed, and make your name now while you still can, because when the 2K15ers roll through we're going to have to be mentors as well as people protecting our roster spot. Our place on the Kayfabe Tier List.

Coal? Somebody bring me my shovel.

The roster would be fine if it was stable, too many people are like "I'm back" then do nothing, then come back again like "just kidding, I'm back now."
