Fighting Games Weekly | July 1-7 | Heel turns, shattered dreams, broken cages

SG is younger, but Third Strike is more popular so you'd probably get just a little less than SG would. Online is going to be very busy for SG in the future, though. There are five new characters on the way so the online scene is going to be very active from now on.

Third Strike has Alex who is pretty cool and SG has Cerebella who is pretty much the ultimate grappler.
I was kind of leaning towards SG because of the new characters and the boost it would give to online and now hearing it has a good grapple character may have convinced me

I've been meaning to pick both of these up for ages now but never got around to it
 
Dark Phoenix mirror matches will never not be the nuttiest thing in Marvel. Its crazy how Fchamp can keep his composure and punish the other DP on reaction after block all the pressure.
 
Filipino "EVO Champ demolishes Neo 3-0 in GF with his Dorm team to win When's Marvel Weekly.

And people were actually arguing that players like Moonz, RayRay, Dick Win and Neo were better than Filipino "EVO" Champ. DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH!

I didn't know we were counting locals.

Guy beats other guys once at informal session when he placed lower than many of them at 2nd biggest tournament of the year a week earlier. Actually all of them placed higher except Moons who wasn't in attendance.

CLEARLY DA BESS/SANDBAGGING AT THAT PARTICULAR TIME

Moonz and Rayray were sandbagging to save their tech for evo

You are either:

1. Filipino Champs biggest fanboy

Or

2. Filipino Champs GAF account.

read that as "the boobs" at first
 
The weaknesses of Moons' team really showed last night......Once Nova is done he has Modok/Ammy, which is an awkward shell. Ammy doesn't do much for Modok, feels a lot like the weaknesses of Dorm/Ammy. Once you get in on Modok its pretty over.
 
ok after reading that reddit thread, we dont need kotaku/penny arcade to make our community look like shit, we do fine ourselves

*shaking head*

So much spin

All you can do is HOPE he's sandbagging at this point. Locals/casual matches barely count for anything. He's comfortable running his own stream/local tournament, but has been a choke master at tournies.

This is like people saying "but Yipes is the best at casuals!" Doesn't matter. It's pure dick riding at that point.

what's this "we" stuff

You can stay self-hating or be the change you wanna see by not participating in bullshit or by saying your piece. On some level, I love the "FGC." On another, I think roping everyone in together as "FGC" is a bullshit way to judge everyone. I don't attribute the good OR bad actions of others who play fighting games to everyone. that's just fallacious shit.
 
Did the Fchamp/Green Ace FT10 happen or not?

I'd be curious to know this as well.

I just got the chance to watch the pool play of GreenAce v. FChamp since someone posted it on Youtube. GreenAce took it 3-0, though he had to fight for it hard.
 
FChamp said last night on FGTV he played Green Ace in casuals and obliterated him to the point where Green Ace started apologizing and shit to him afterwards, IIRC.

He then asked for him to do a MM and GreenAce declined.

Yeah, I'm kind of wondering if there's a third party involved that can confirm that.
