Remember there are no rounds in Marvel. This isn't like other games where both players would have been awarded a round. Believe me, I would have loved to see Tayson take FChamp down, but it was the right call.
A better analogy would be if you were playing SF4 but set to 1 round, what happens in a draw in that scenario?
Also this.

well the game screen did say 3-2 after the set finished. so the game didnt award a win for both players on that draw.
Wow that set was just something else.
FChamp with the smart stuff... that entire team is pure Zero counter pick. Sentinel on 2nd means he can escape Zero's incoming mix ups and Dorm + Doom individually match up well against Zero with assists.
The MYTHICAL tie in a Marvel game.

Basically on the rematch screen if the number of wins doesn't go up then it doesn't count.

Damn, that homophobic bullshit is disappointing.
edit: Also - is it true that the game awarded a point to Tayson after the draw? That the end-of-game ticker went from 2-1 to 3-2? If that's the case, the quoted tweet is still right, but Champ should not have gotten his runback.

I hope Combo doesn't get Kotaku. You know people are watching

This is bullshit based on fighting game convention. They should have had 3 judges holding up cards of who they thought should have won the round 3S stylee.

IIRC, in street fighter 2, a draw didnt award a round to either player. so you would get the "final round" / round 4 when a draw occurred in the 3rd round.
edit: the final game screen said 3-2, player 2 (champ)

Marvel does not technically award a win for either player when it's a tie.
I remember in the arcade days when I had my first tie in MVC2. Both me and a player were viciously. It was my Captain Commando against another guy's Sentinel. Match ended with similar health so it was a tie. We both looked confused and excited but then the machine asked for quarters from BOTH of us.
It's win/lose/tie in the stats as well for MVC3. Basically the set score for that game was 3-2-1.

Are you sure? I remember that the draw gave the win to the 1P side at the arcades. Or at my arcades at least.
Lol champ haters go eat a duck. He won fair and proper.

Who cares what Wiz thinks. It's not his tourney and he isn't the arbiter of all things FGC.
100% right on that one. We both put in quarters for MVC2.
We have a machine at my local area, I can go check it tomorrow in fact. But I am super sure on this in MVC2.
Oh lol eSports.
Good shit, Combo.
He's the TO of a tourney, though. He gets to make the call of that one, not on all tournaments.
I agree on the draw being a loss/not counting, but stop stroking Wizard's ego, for god's sake. Dude already an attitude as big as Champ. :lol

I just called Kotaku. Combo is done for.
Coexistfiend returning to the mic.
A staple? No, not at all. An isolated case does not represent the entire community.

God damn that combo apology made me cringe "I didn't want to do that" You clearly wanted to say what you did, just not on the mic.
