Fighting Games Weekly | July 8-14 | All roads lead here

That list is all kinds of wrong wtf. Why are Wesker and Dante at the bottom but Ghost Rider so high? Skrull, Frank, Spidey, Iron Man, Iron Fist, MODOK all lower than Shuma? Wut.
 
just invert the popular tier lists for the game. there's your hype list.

Hsien-ko bodying people is about the last thing anyone expects and unexpected blow ups are the mother of hype.
 
DAMN! There's a new schedule
evo-stream-schedule1.png


Now they will stream EVERY match of Marvel and SFIV semis!
 
Here's my HYPE tier list

Right to left is character popularity. I feel that an obscure character can still be anti hype... case in point Ghost Rider. The only reason he isn't at the bottom left corner is because of "LOOK INTO MY EYES". Character is dryer than sand in middle of the Sahara.

Looking at the list there are 6 characters that I feel a lot of people just tend to hate in general. Vergil, Wolverine, Doom, Phoenix, Morrigan, Zero. Honestly the only reason Vergil isn't beside Zero is because Dark Angel is hype as fuck always.

Edit: Fixed the URL now.
 
lol no stream for SFxT except the finals, on stream 3.

Also 10 am KOF13, especially after last year's hype, is super desperation disappointment
 
lol ggs, Qis. I woke up a bit at the end but still not enough.

I'm going to have to watch out for Ogre limbs more.
 
It's kinda funny how they scheduled it so you can watch sf4/marvel for the entire day.

Going to be even funnier when smash pools are running over and it is cut for a secondary sf4 stream.

I mean probably fair enough...but still funny.

It looks like the skullgirls tourney is on in the NRS hall...so hopefully they can stream a bit of that if MK winds up early.
 
Daigo still has the potential of winning Evo. Didn't he wreck everyone at SF25th qualifier? Like not lose a match to anyone? That was probably a harder tournament than any majors we had in the NA.

He also did super well in Topanga league as well. Which was filled with the worlds best playing some of the best characters in the game at the highest level.


I'm sure Daigo will be fine.

We can play some more tomorrow if you want.

Also try not to press buttons on the ground EVER vs bryan unless you got a good clean chance to hit, I really wish there were some bryan players around to blow up all the chuns and shit that pop up.
 
I love how there's a perpetual optimism about Daigo. He might just be too old now, you know.

Pretty sure Infiltration is older than Daigo.

Try getting a stand for your stick and stand while playing. Humans weren't meant to sit for long hours at a time. Everything is connected inside your body, and when there's stress on one part, it will transfer, especially when you're hunched over and in an unnatural position.

Yeah I'll give that a try. Must be some kind of tendon issue or something because I notice it happening even when I'm just playing other computer games with just the keyboard. Shit is weird.

You are probably thinking of Infiltration.

That was him.

No, Infiltration has 28 I think, Daigo already has 31 IIRC, but I'm sure Daigo is older, not by much

Daigo is 32 and Infiltration is 28.
 
Bryan and Ogre man :| Q is crazy with them.

Haha my bryan isn't that good, I can't do all his real link combos. He's probably one of the best characters if you can pull them off 100% of the time. They require a few really really tight links in a single combo though.

Mostly his overhead into c.lp, into srk, into c.lp, mach punch is a pain

I play Windalfr pretty regularly. He plays Bryan/Steve so I should know not to press buttons on the ground. Problem? I'm too tired to realize I shouldn't lol. Like, it took me forever to remember I can just blow up blazing kick with a counter.

That was him.

No it was Daigo. He won the qualifier without dropping a single match

If someone were to predict that Daigo would destroy the entire field of competition in Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition Ver. 2012 without dropping a single match, you’d think they were crazy… A field that includes both a former EVOLUTION & GODSGARDEN Champion along with other top players from all over Japan. There’s a reason why Daigo is the legend that he is. In stunning fashion, Daigo went through the entire competition without dropping a single game. More impressive, he defeated recent Topanga League champion, RZR Fuudo in a convincing 5 straight games (2 in Winner’s Final and 3 in Grand Finals). The Beast is back? He never left.

Haha, I never seen it countered before, so that round you started doing it I lost my concentration laughing at my tag in getting the counter and not ogre. Bryan just instantly teleports in being thrown out of no where
 
SexyMike is a pretty well known BlazBlue and Marvel player in Colorado. He's one of the (if not the only) players that has both Morrigan and Phoenix on his team. Always frustrating to play against him because he actually does great with both. Great to practice Anti-Chris G tech with. Not everyone is able to accumulate and travel out of state due to work and family obligations. He won't be going to EVO this year since he couldn't afford it. :/

Alioune, sometimes Champ
 
Oh man I just realized the KI special is right before Mahvel finals. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. People are gonna be antsy as fuck. It's going to be a tough crowd.
lets bring this back

marvel hype tier list

any expected changes this year?
Hsien-Ko on blast. Just sell her to Lab Zero Games, Capcom.
DAMN! There's a new schedule

Now they will stream EVERY match of Marvel and SFIV semis!
The fudge

The second stream now belongs to the land of the free and home of the brave.
 
Man, James Chen with the excuses. Placement of the halls aren't set in stone. They can easily adjust the setups to accommodate pool play but they won't.

Argument seems to be they only have two games in that hall, so can't stream anything else. Which kind of ignores the question about why they just don't have another game in there. If the hall is big enough for Injustice, it is big enough for more than MK on the Friday.

If it really is true that nothing was paid...then seriously, what the fuck?
