Apex 2014 | Fighting Game Tournament | Jan 17-19

I think that was the most hype straight 6-0 I've seen in a minute

I wish I could go back and time and give my ancestors some of this freedom I just saw
 
Good shit to Sanford. Really shows how unfamiliar everyone is with the Oni matchup. Sanford isn't even using Oni to his full potential and wrecked everyone.
 
I wonder if Sanford is going to make Oni his main or if he'll play Oni on the side like PR Balrog did with Fei Long. PR Balrog also had a really amazing tournament with Fei, but he's still playing Balrog as his main. Aside from those two, are there any others in the US that are actually picking top tier as people were saying they would? (Well, I don't know if Oni is top tier but that's not the point! lol)

He'll likely just switch the characters. Oni will be his main and Sagat his secondary. Oni is just a better character with better matchups, but a pocket Sagat could be good for certain character/player matchups.

The way ultra shapes up, Sagat will be King.
But Oni will be better too most likely, so it will probably come down to match-ups
 
I just hope they don't nerf chip on EX DP. One of the best chip killers in the game. Would be a poor tradeoff if they did that in return for FADC DP.
 
If Sanford going HAM with Oni is the bright spot of the fighting game universe, Zero/Vergil is the place it's farthest from.
 
the mixup that wasn't?

THE ULTIMATE MIX-UP

no match for the godlike stratagem of "let your first two characters die and come back with XF3 Vergil"
 
I think Chris just does things to try to prove a point, like in Hadocon when he played the Ammy/Morrigan/Phoenix in WF. He could be just showing that he can take 6 games off Flocker/Justin or really trying to beat them with secondary teams.

We just need someone to create that gdlk anti-Vergil/Zero/Morrigan tech with Shien-Ko.
