Chocoblanka

SFIV Blanka Player, EG member, and longtime girlfriend of Momochi. Momochi promised to kiss her on stage if he won EVO (WHICH HE DIDN'T). And he promised to marry her if he won Capcom Cup this year.

Lol, really?

Do you have the audio on on the second stream? That might be why.

Choco not being at the venue is kinda weird but I guess she's doing the commentary in Japan for the event, lol.

iirc last year she was in japan doing commentary too.

 

[ScribbleD]

Capcom really trying to emulate e-sports with all this downtime.

 

[hitsugi]

People ragging on the fit / cut of the suit not commenting on black suit + navy shirt....

I silenced the 2nd stream just in case, but it was only James echoing, not David, lol.

 

[vulva]

Lol, really?

I mean, they'll get married eventually. If he wins and gets that money it'd really help them out in getting settled as a married couple.


Momochi!

David not turning to the audience at all is kind of awkward

 

[Numb]

Anyday now...

 

[Immortal Technique]

I mean it's 10 am and Sony still has stuff going on there. The venue likely just opened.

Yeah, so the tourney started too early then.

(Or maybe not, as right now they're stalling!)

 

[Rainy]

Did anyone have RB upsetting Momochi in their bracket?

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Choco is so happy.

She always looks like that, Choco has resting happy face.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Where is the Japanese stream?

 

[peter0611]

those intros seems kinda backwards, lol

 

[ViewtifulJC]

terribull

 

[Zombegoast]

Momochi brought Juri back?

 

[cj_iwakura]

This has to be the most blase event I've ever seen.

 

[KidA Seven]

This is all going to look extremely amateur until the crowd comes in.

 

[Nibel]

Do they have sound issues?

 

[Soulstar]

Where is the Japanese stream?

twitch.tv/capcom_channel I believe.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Momochi: "I saw all of his match footage"

RIP RB

 

[Heel]

Are these dumbasses muting all audience noise?

I can hear the 4 people in attendance laughing at this intro video.

 

[Gunslinger]

Yo fgc is poverty confirmed.....


No audience....

 

[slightconfuse]

Man this is super dry

Is all es sports like this

 

[miserable]

lol @ the american scrubs in the audience laughing at these players

 

[jerry1594]

Where is the Japanese stream?

Twitch.tv/capcom_channel

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

David not turning to the audience at all is kind of awkward

Well, maybe when they get here...

 

[Rainy]

Yikes this is awkward.

 

[bryt]

The production values not looking good so far

 

[Shenmue]

Wow that is a big screen.

Also none of these guys have ever been great with small talk and whatnot. It's during the matches that they shine.

 

[Numb]

Man this is super dry

Is all es sports like this

Welcome to FGC poverty

 

[mbpm1]

Why are they coming out side by side?

Awkward

 

[ICKE]

I don't think I've ever seen less hype in a fighting game tournament and this is supposed to be the biggest one of them all?

Fix your face Capcom.

 

[Tekniqs]

yo Fword will be on the mic? love that guy's commentary

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Yo fgc is poverty confirmed.....


No audience....

People are still filling in. Theres lines outside of the venue

 

[Tripon]

Momochi still wearing Team Razer gear?

 

[El Sloth]

Y'all care too much about little hiccups.

 

[Kane1345]

Starting to fill out finally. Get those people in quicker

 

[trixx]

This is all going to look extremely amateur until the crowd comes in.

they came in.

Start the fight yeesh

Also does Smash have better commentators than street fighter lol?

 

[cj_iwakura]

Man this is super dry

Is all es sports like this

I've seen some crazy hype esport events, but the two don't seem to mesh I suppose.

 

[Einchy]

Lots of people in there now.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

This is so sad. SFIV deserves better than this.

 

[Primethius]

Audience seems to be much bigger now.

Alright, got my pizza ready. So hyped for this!

 

[DryEyeRelief]

I think Momochi is going 1-2 but I have him winning this match

 

[Wallach]

Whew, the sooner they can get into the matches to get these guys loosened up the better. You can tell the preparation level is not high.

 

[jerry1594]

Well, maybe when they get here...

It's full now

 

[Dahbomb]

I don't think I've ever seen less hype in a fighting game tournament and this is supposed to be the biggest one of them all?

Fix your face Capcom.

The biggest FG tournament is still EVO.

 

[cj_iwakura]

ArcSys ponied up more than that in Evo2014, step up senpai.

 

[RangerBAD]

How long until the shirt comes off? Are we taking bets?

 

[Boke1879]

This is kinda what eSports does. Everything just seems kinda vanilla and too rehearsed and it kinda shows right now. the FGC isn't used to this stuff. It'll get better with time.

Nice to see the crowd there. When the matches start things should get good.

 

[Tripon]

Jokes aside. It is the morning, and the beginning, by the time top 16 happens, the place will be full and packing.

EDIT: KEN VS HUGO!
