so i just moved into college so this first week i've been goin out a lot and meeting tons of new people, so i've had the oppertunity to really analyze my game. this is what i've noticed:
i can usually open a set without much of a problem, i sometimes violate the 3 second rule and take a while to get in, but it's not my biggest problem. for about the first couple minutes i'm cocky funny and interesting, i can ride off a couple lines, or a routine, but i always end up relying way too much on fluff. i can never find a good transition into another routine so i just opt for the "so where are you guys staying?" or "where are you from?", the lame questsions everyone always asks at college. even when i get a great conversation going, IOI's flying around everywhere, i have the most trouble isolating.
so here're my questions
1) what's the best way to keep your game rolling without becoming boring?
2) what're some good isolation moves? |

Instead of questioning make statements like "I'm not staying on campus but I'm taking a full load of classes." She will probably respond with where she is staying or what kinda classes she is taking.
Make open ended statements. (Do a search on them you may find more info)
As for isolation moves I can't help ya. I really suck at that too lol

I'm usually pretty direct when it comes to isolation.
If it's a 4-set or larger, I ask the rest of the set if I can "steal your friend for a few minutes". The trick is choosing to do this at a point where you know your target will come with you (i.e., you've recieved 3+ IOIs).
Isolation with a 3-set only works if you can generate a conversation between the two people who aren't your target. I just tell the target "I want to show you something cool. Come with me."
Isolation with a 2-set requires a wing to run interference on the obstacle. I just tell the target "I want to show you something cool. Come with me." |
