Because of the EVO standings, RayRay has now actually overtaken FChamp in the UMVC3 rankings on SRK to be the #3 best player in the world!

Edit: LMAO BEATEN BY SECONDS!

KBR now #5 after FChamp.
 
Bounty my ass. For competition my ass. Man yesterday was a good day. That pot bonus this rubbed me the wrong way.

I saw a pic of RF recieving his bounty money. Pretty sure ChrisG wouldnt have accepted the bounty as he had one on himself, and Clock is good friends with justin so probably he didnt accept it either. Who knows tho, this is marvel
 
The Salt regarding KBR is disgusting people wishing he would even die in a plane crash and you got the same circle jerk of U.S "top" players giving him shit too.

Hold that fucking L and stop crying.

Also, if anyone remembers last week RayRay and Company were at FGTV. Well when RayRay got on the mic he said big body team would be real scary if someone who was actually good knew what they were doing was using it and said KBR was just good at beating players that like to press buttons. Haha.

I think the worst comment I seen so far from a top player is Ricki saying she threw up in her mouth at KBR winning. Smh. I'll read through this thread and check out what else I missed out on regarding the Marvel salt.
 
If you have to do these theatics to prop up your game, maybe you don't have as much faith in your game as you though you had.
 
So I heard Marvel grand finals had two sentinels in it.
People keep telling me he's low tier but I don't believe it. Sentinel is one of the worst characters in fighting game history. I hate him with the burning fury of a thousand suns.
 
I wonder if there would have been as much salt for Snake Eyez if he won...oh no there wouldnt because USA! USA! USA!

Hearing boos from the crowd on nearly half of the main stage games was really disheartening.

I understand the USA chants, but the booing was terrible.
Yeah agreed, who were these awful people booing Nemo because he won against Ai Ai, just really bad taste....I'm no fan of the U.S.A chants either....one leads to the other tbh...
 
Watched much more of Evo than I thought I would this year, especially on the Smash side of things. Shame about the Marvel QF's/SF's.

Anyway:

Interested to see where Sm4sh goes in a custom-less world(?) and what kind of shake-ups are in store. Especially ready to see people duff with Ryu (if it's possible). I get the custom Villager stupidity now, hadn't bothered to search it out.

Melee was good but not enough Peach ffs.

The SF/Melee viewers pissing contest was the best/worst kind of jokes, proud of everyone who didn't get into that noise.

Should've watched GG. Missed a helluva show.

Despite not understand much and the SNES game being my reference point, KI was awesome. Good on Rico. Guess PC might be an opportunity to jump in.

The amount of shit being stolen continues to disappoint. Tape the money (or table, or Ness amiibo) to your nuts, sure, but at the end of the day, the butt faced shitbag who stole it is to blame alone.

Marvel was good fun. Any given Sunday but regardless, KBR played his ass off. Anyone who is salty about it at top levels should be sure to apply for their Masters in Ass-hatology. Surprisingly not hard to come by. Working real hard with sword guys or TAC infinites or Vanilla Phoenix. It's all supposed to be dumb and cheap; complaining about it is the epitome of whining. They just got duffed by something they weren't prepared for. Strongest there is indeed.

Hadn't watched Street Fighter in a while, so this was a surprise. The Elena heal stuff was...AMAZING. Hilarious. Had Momochi to win it all (safe bet), but Bee really deserved it to be honest. That stick fail was some serious WWEsports shit.

All in all, seemed like a pretty solid year once more. Would consider returning next year for V after a couple years hiatus, but we'll see how Cammy survives these few rounds of "polish." I don't like when characters are good this early, reeks of a plan to normalize (regardless of their promise to buff the bad instead of nerf the good).

Necalli the Super Saiyan Medusa who is probably Blanka's son. No thanks but guess he makes some people happy, so more power to em.

Considering a PS4 early next year for V, plus a stick. Game better be damn good.

You guys made it an interesting watch once more!
 
Almost wanted to go back into tekken. I had to stop myself. If in a easy as game like sf if I have a 14-24% win ration I'd be trying to kill myself going into Tekken. I had to control mahself.

I don't think its ricki hating on KBR but more ricki hating that playstyle.

Ricki has always been critical of things that aren't footsies base. Even more when its players brute forcing their way in and using the scramble situation.

I have seen ricki posted about being disgusted about various things and its rarely ever the player but the playstyle
 
KBR obviously shouldn't die in a plane crash or anything, but I hope he uses some of his EVO money to pay back all the people he begged money from. Watching him hustle for donations on twitter was pathetic.

She can be critical all she wants... at the end of the day KBR has an EVO title and she doesn't and she has been in the scene way longer while also being a training partner with Justin for so long.

This is the type of mentality which prevents many US players from getting better.

Marvel "top" players seem to be scum. Sorry. Maybe there's somebody good in there but I haven't had the most positive impressions so far.

Wondering if that indiegogo campaign met funding targets. Would be hilarious if it did and all three of Justin Wong, Chris G, and F Champ wouldn't have reaped the maximum benefits out of it. lol.
 
Probably old news, but the next NA major will have ultra on PS4. Not a big surprise.

I was wondering about this. During the Capcom panel they said the CPT would switch to PS4. I thought it would only be Premier Events. But it looks like it's going to be every CPT Event. I wonder if Capcom is helping TO's to get PS4's. Maybe not free, but they have to be getting a really nice discount or something. I can't imagine them being forced to buy a dozen or more new PS4's on their own.
 
I may not have been thrilled with Marvel top-8, but any comments about Kane are disgusting and make me lose so much respect for the community.

It's especially sad because I thought we had grown up a lot over the last couple years. Guess not.

Nah there are good people in there like Viscant, Clockwork, KBR, Angelic etc.

PRBalrog with the good stuff... man are we going to have a MARVEL CIVIL WAR over this???

Justin took himself out of the equation for that money when you all flipped your shit for no reason btw. Even if he won, he wouldn't have gotten any pot bonus.

Makes me sad that one of the nicest dudes in the FGC gets shit on by internet monsters when he's just trying to help. Even if he was misguided in doing so.
 
Think about it. On paper, those three golden sticks should have went to Chris G, Justin, and Fchamp. Justin's second time eluding a golden stick. These golden stick represent the best of the best. NY now being the place with most golden stick winners.
 
Jesus christ....

He said he had many more from haters but would not re tweet anymore.

Ricky also called KBR a bum. No respect.

Yeah forgot about this. No respect at all!

tbh

We all know Ricki loves cheering on RayRay but she let the salt get the best of her also called him a bum which is pretty personal.

I don't know these other players. :/
I guess I'll limit my observation to the supposed top three "gods." I remember they were also caught colluding before so I can't respect them. Though I can give Justin Wong respect for playing non-top tier characters.

Do these people have actual livelihoods now or they still payin rent from tournament earnings?

LOL how do you not at least know Viscant, EVO champion of MVC3?

Also most of them have actual jobs. You can't live off of Marvel winnings lol.

Pretty sure EG pays Justin a salary. Not sure about FChamp or Chris G
 
Use their chat support in the Help section.

It worked for me.

Used chat, they said my order didn't have a promo code attached despite me preordering during EVO time. Said it'll take until Thursday to generate a code for me. Told them it was too long, and Amazon said they'll try to get it to me tomorrow on Tuesday.

I'll give them til tomorrow, and then I'm canceling and just ordering though the PS4 and going digital. Sigh, all this for just a beta code.

ah didn't see the bum part

edit

Fchamp is a QA person at Nvidia, same with Rog
Chris G is an esports team but not a super big one like TSM, C9, EG, TL

Yeah I don't know him.
I'm not really big on spectating but watch to support fighting games. There are sure some hype moments but I'm bored most of the times.

I'm pretty sure someone posted before that Justin also partook in colluding so I don't know? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
