Blurry flurry is a 4 dex. the 5 was sailing ss flurry.



And not to be a downer, but dont say "Who thought nemesis would ever be hit?" This is totally different than nemesis. Maybe ales or vasek have hit trifly, and only a handful of people have hit triage. And furthermore, no one has ever hit a real trick out of a "triaging" set. It simply isnt possible for anyone to EVER hit triaging trifly. Clean at least

I don't even think I could move my foot 6 times in that time.

Steve told me Ales can do triple up and triple downs, so its just a matter of trying to combine the tricks.

But I'll rest my case when its been settled.

Peace

Not to be a jerk, but that's like saying Vasek can do ripstein and superdeedooperfly so it's just a matter of trying to combine the tricks to get ripsteining superdeedooperfly. It's JUST not that easy.

High. There was a possible Sailing ss Mofly hit before Vasek's 5 dex, but cleanliness was in dispute ;)

I'm sure he's probably hit furious barrage before, but I don't know about whirr.

There was a video of sailing same mofly ("the first quint-dex").

I'm always the one to say, "of course this can be hit", but I agree that this trick is not possible to hit clean. I can picture furious trifly, but even nemesis is rarely clean, right? Furious trifly alone is a stretch...it seems to be one of those moves that will be hit, like, once and never in a run.

I disagree with the triage comment though...tons of people have hit triage.

I also don't think that spazzing out on the guy just for requesting a move is very mature :?



Nemesis swirl would be a neat trick. A handful of people have hit blurriest swirl...

Will the 100 meter dash record ever reach 1 second? No. There is a limit to how far humans can go. It's not a negative attitude to recognize limits, but more of a realistic attitude.

Will "Super Nemesis" ever be hit? Maybe...but I think it's VERY unlikely to happen within our lifetime.

Just to clarify, if you're grouping me with the spazzers, i totally wasnt. I know its typing and that, so you cant "hear" my tone. But i was just explaining my opinion. Wasnt spazzing out :)

Kind of offtopic but can someone please post a link to that 5 dex (clean or just footed won't bother me) I'm really curious to see what it looks like so I can dream :lol:

I don't see any flame posts, and I don't see any spazzing whatsoever. Anssi called this thread ridiculous bullshit. That's not flaming. That's the truth, coming from an experienced player who has hit nemesis on both sides.

As for "spazzing", all I see is doubtful people expressing their opinions, and it's not like we've got no reason to be doubtful.
BRICK!

Bath Nate and Matt have great comments, and I'd just like to add one more here:

Have you ever thought about Triage as a set? Have you ever mimed it without a bag and without shoes on? How about trifly? If you have then you know that the uptime and downtime components of these two moves seem possible.

Now, have you ever seen anyone do a real triaging set? I mean Jorden was the closest I've seen (whirling janiwalker, kind of "the'd" the third dex, but holy hell it was close) and have you aver seen anyone hit trifly all downtime? The only way I've seen trifly is when the person takes an extra hop off the set foot to get it midtime so that they can compleate all three dexs.

The way I define a set is that the bag has to be rising after the set is over, and for something such as nemesis, the set has to be high so that you can do the double down mid-to-down time. Now for the barraging set it's easy to get it waist high (rumors of ducking), but for the triaging set to be hit, it's already hit it's peak and strated to ascend, and then to tack on a trifly that is only a mid time component seems unfathomable. All I'm saying is that this trick is going to take a lot of advancing in the fields of triage and trifly, and by the time somone hits it you might be too dead to care.
