Nick Chester cheats, wins against Brad Nicholson in SF IV

April 30th, 2009 -- Brad Nicholson PR Company

Late this afternoon, Street Fighter IV World Champion Brad Nicholson (using Zangief) was defeated by Destructoid dot com's Editor-in-Chief Nick Chester (using Ken) in two separate, three-round matches. Unfortunately, Chester didn’t manage to beat Nicholson fairly. Destructoid's daddy used a variety of cheap tactics, hacks, and exploits to take down the world’s greatest Street Fighter IV player.

In the first round of the first match, Chester told Nicholson to stop play so he could answer his door. When Nicholson looked away from the screen, Chester attacked him several times, putting his health near zero. Although frustrated and dismayed, Nicholson tried to mount a comeback. He would ultimately lose the round.

During the second round of the first match, Chester modem glitched -- tapped the "Standby" button on his modem -- in order to slow Nicholson down and gain the upper hand. He succeeded.

In the second match, Chester decided to taunt Nicholson by calling him dirty names and proceeded to use a Gameshark to change his character, Ken, into Godzilla. Nicholson’s Zangief couldn’t Lariat or bear hug the towering lizard. Nicholson lost both rounds.

"I'm mildly disappointed with how it went down," Brad Nicholson said. "I was really expecting some decently competitive matches. Obviously, Nick [Chester] knew I would win and resorted to poor tactics."

"I’m the greatest Street Fighter IV player ever," Nicholson added. "I've never lost a match fair and square."

Nick Chester and Brad Nicholson need to have a karaoke/dance off before I'm interested. That will never happen probably, because Nick has one hell of a voice. Of course, Brad could just flex pecks and knock him into the next county over.

Is that why you're dodging my Player Match invites? :)

@Haxan - Nah, actually the other day I only had a few minutes and I really wanted to finish the tournament I was in. I'll definitely be up for a few matches tonight, if you'd like. I just did want to "eat and leave" so-to-speak.

@Brad,
I'll be on and off throughout the night. Here's hoping. I haven't really fought a good Zangief in ages.

Brad needs to use his TIME MACHINE to break Nicks fingers before the match. You know...because it's a TIME MACHINE.

A balance patch will come at a later time when the characters have been worked out. No one knows which characters need balancing yet because they haven't been figured out 100% yet.
