Fighting Games Weekly | July 15-21 | Post-EVO Pillow Talk

OBS, FGTV, RIP and the break are on. So many post EVO stuff.
It's weird seeing Champ like this. He's not mad or anything but you can tell he really wasn't prepared as well as he thought he was.
 
Seeing how the Melee community carried themselves over the weekend was the most impressing thing about my EVO 2013 experience. I believe these guys are truly the most hardworking people when it comes to fighting games. I mean, I would see the dudes going at it before the doors opened, going at it with casuals while pools were running, when the finals were going and even late Sunday when everyone left the main event room.

The hype, man... They were going insane at pools, at the semis, and the top 8 finals were amazing. I can't think of any other game more deserving to come back to EVO 2014 than a (by next year) 13-year old game.

I had a lot of awesome experiences over the weekend, but I will say that I really want to play Smash way over Marvel due to the dedication they showed. Good shit, guys.

I agree :)
 
I'll be honest, I really enjoyed only three things this Evo:

Reynald wrecking Woo in KOF, Jwong's epic comeback and BananaKen coming so close to beating LordKnight at P4U.

I honestly thought that Reynald would have completely lost that Grand Finals, and then he caught Woo choking so HARD.

I'm a big fan of both Jwong and Chris G, but Wong caught Chris G where it hurt...his lack of defense. Wong took full advantage, but none the less, it was an amazing match.

Chris has some of the best defense in marvel of anyone...

Ouch. That must be a real kick to the balls. Looks like he posted nudity. While relevant in context, that's obviously a huge no-no here, a site that many browse from work (although, they shouldn't be clicking on a thread called "nipplegate" in the first place.)

Should have read the forum faq on what can get you banned. And he probably should have stayed out of the OT.
Every time an FGC-GAF junior gets banned, I think to myself "Man, even KingofSarus managed to fly under the radar better than you did."

RIP in peace.
Still impressed he managed that.
 
HOW THE FUCK DID USA GOT HUSTLED IN MAHVEL AGAINST JAPAN????!!!

WHAT DA FUCK!!!!!????

FUCKING EVEN MAGO WAS IN THAT SHIT!!!!!

FChamp wants to have a runback against Nemo for 20 THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS!!!!!
 
Smash fans are some of the greatest fans out there. I've noticed this as I get to know to more and more people in the NM scene (Sliraobe God, tw1n, Light, and others). Good players, good teachers, and not too many complainers. Just from playing a few sessions with the local scene I've gone from zero knowledge to having a decently good Peach.

The dedication of the Smash scene is pretty impressive to me, especially considering how much Nintendo goes out of their way to shit on you guys.

After Nintendo giving the community a cold shoulder for many, many, many years it makes sense to have a... desire to just keep going at it. The scene is stronger than ever this year and I'm super thankful to have been part of the community and more active in it since last November.

I'm so glad EVO 2013 happened for Melee.
 
I don't know man, but this sounds like a bunch of lies
Nothing about this sounds false. They are legitimately salty over lost money.

FChamp wants that run back so bad. CJ talking mad shit.

They said Nemo went away with 3 grand in his pocket, all of Japan went away with 6 grand total.
