I am so mad that Kai made all those bad calls, but fuck man, BEST CURLEH and BEST MARVEL free.

Also, Dios X >>>>>>> F.Champ. Confirmed.

My sides man.

 

[Strange in Stereo]

Best Curleh.

Good shit, Dios X.

 

[Dahbomb]

DIOS X DA GAWD!!!

HE ACCEPTED THE MAN CHALLENGE AND WON OUT!

GOD DAMN THAT SHIT WAS MANLY.... I CAN FEEL THE STUBBLE GROW FROM THAT SET!

 

[Htown]

I still can't believe they did the fucking DBZ weighted training clothes shit


lol

 

[DR2K]

Dios showing how strong Storm can be. Great set.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

I'm out all day and come home to shirtless marvel, lol.

 

[AhmazingArab]

Ah i was really hoping Killer Kai was going to take the win. This guy takes loses really seriously though. This is the same guy who went back to his room to practice for the rest of the weekend when he got eliminated at SCR.


He's going to come back way stronger than before

 

[rexor0717]

The way he switched to strict zoning was incredibly smart on Dios X's part. Wow, that was impressive.

 

[Seven Force]

Some great Marvel play from start to finish.

Consistently using the Doom -> Storm DHC to escape Helm Breaker was pretty smart, too.

 

[nilay]

This shirtless grand finals were so hype

 

[Unlucky]

Really great end after all the drama earlier today.

 

[Rocwell]

Yeah great tournament

 

[def sim]

I thought Dios X was a nut, but he was definitely doing some proper zoning there. Great stuff.

 

[Kellen]

This was an amazing Curleh!

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Much more interesting team than that Wolverine/Missiles crap he was running last year.

 

[Duxxy3]

Last major tournament before evo. That's a nice amount of momentum for killer kai and dios x.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

LOL. Dios X Evo Champion incoming. Fchamp Karma.

Dios will make ChrisG switch to Zero.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

What were they sayin earlier?

Dude ain't a Pelican. Dude is MACHETE.

 

[Dahbomb]

Great fucking CM... so hyped for EVO now.

But man the commentary today was comedic gold.

 

[kick51]

Doom/Storm/Sent

 

[ViewtifulJC]

1980s Storm won

Best Marvel tournament

 

[Defunkled]

Manliest Grand Finals in Marvel 3 history. Seriously some Yakuza or Hokuto no Ken shit.

 

[jacobs34]

That was the best fighting game tourney I've seen in a long time. Everything from the production, to the commentary, to quality of play was on point. What a great way to get everyone hype for Evo.

 

[Jintor]

That was some hype as shit stuff.

 

[thatsafakewebsitebro]

Manliest Grand Finals in Marvel 3 history. Seriously some Yakuza or Hokuto no Ken shit.

Could not have said it better myself. Respect. And this is coming from an East Coast guy.

 

[showdown]

I'd say shirtless matches should be new Marvel tradition, but you really can't recreate a moment like this.

Sure you can

[Hazaro]

What a great tourney.

 

[CookedChocobo]

BEST CURLEH, hands down.

This the Curleh to rewatch later down the line.

.

I'm done, one the best tournies this year also

 

[Omega]

Kai looks and sounds so sad

 

[jwhit28]

I wish Yipes could start a weekly East Coast WNF/TRB type of deal.

 

[Dahbomb]

Excellet GF too, really solid and methodical play by both. Dios X out played Killer Kai's Zero at the end there which was the pivotal point.

 

[Frantic]

Honestly, one thing I really like about DiosX is that he fishes out super jumps and meets them air-to-air. You see it every now and then from other players, but DiosX does it all the time. Caught Kai doing something a lot.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

That was the best fighting game tourney I've seen in a long time. Everything from the production, to the commentary, to quality of play was on point. What a great way to get everyone hype for Evo.

What happens when a tournament is focused on one game and the competitors are only invited.

 

[Kouichi]

Those were some of the best Marvel matches I've ever seen.

Amazing tournament.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

For real, this was a feel-good tourney. Almost every second of it was engineered to put a grin on your face.

[OmnipotentO]

Sick tournament. Hyped as all fuck for EVO.

 

[malfcn]

pretty awesome you can have a tourney called Curleh Mustache.

 

[Jintor]

Man, I gotta get over the the States someday and thank yipes in person. Ran into Sp00ky once in Vegas for a Tekken Tag 2 thing, probably doesn't remember me but my respect is through the roof.

 

[Lazyslob]

Seriously, such an awesome tournament.

 

[ReiGun]

Sure you can

Well I stand corrected.

[GotchaForce]

Awesome tourney, especially for how much FChamp got shat on, lol.

 

[MiniBossBattle]

Such a good event. Top 8 all had amazing hit conversions (especially at superjump height) and playstyles. What is even crazier is that people are getting better at blocking making the chip sequence and push-block traps a bigger part of the game.

 

[Jintor]

We're all free now!

 

[Nabs]

Such an amazing event. Good shit to everyone involved.

 

[enzo_gt]

What happens when a tournament is focused on one game and the competitors are only invited.

There's a lot of respect involved at these tournaments. People don't enter to fuck around. The way Yipes and co. have designed it and how he's handled formatting, high entrance fee, etc. ensure people don't fuck around.

This one is especially hype because it's the last big thing before EVO and a big reality check for people.

 

[kick51]

Awesome tourney, especially for how much FChamp got shat on, lol.

It really couldn't have gone better.

Champ talking shit in the first part, losing in the second part, hype matches the whole time, godlike commentary, and (sorry kai) Zero/Vergil lost to a not top tier team.

 

[Clawww]

can't believe dios did it with storm, and the 80s alt at that
