Marvel 100% combos are more like 33% life combos in reality.

fuckin' called it, man
Will Infiltration kill everyone?
Still remember how at one of the tournaments Daigo was playing HDR for what looked like the first time and was basically learning the differences with Guile as the tournament progressed (you could see him adjusting on the fly and being surprised at certain things not working), then getting comfortable in the end and winning the whole thing.
My favorite match from last year's EVO.
33% combos that also take away 33% of the toolset on your team.Marvel 100% combos are more like 33% life combos in reality.

Comeback overload, the match was nuts.
My favorite was Dieminion vs Infiltration in top 16. Most intense match ever

Wow that's a lot of posts already, only went up yesterday.
Last year I felt Chris G should have won. I can't see him not winning Evo, unless he encounters bizarre tech from someone who has an idea how to play Morridoom.

LOL dat first donation amount. Someone get this man to EVO.

He who pursues two rabbits gets two rabbits.
That was also the tournament where Tokido gained the "Murderface" moniker, IIRC.
Daigo vs Tokido: Daigo was in rare form, constantly smiling and laughing. And Tokido just looked furious. It was the most hilarious juxtaposition.

Someone needs to enroll all of these manchildren into a money management course.

In Drew's case, all his money went into moving so he's at least being transparent with it. Still hilarious that everyone is jumping on the donation bandwagon to try and work the marks.
Holy shit this is funny... hahaha

Or, you know, too many Zeros.

I might just watch these for the Japanese hype. The same reason why I choose spanish language broadcasts of soccer games.

True, if it's not Chris G, it may be one of the thousand Zero players. that 50/50 at the beginning of the match can be the end of Morrigan.
He won't win. I know, repeating myself, but he won't win the tournament (unless the guy who uses him also has alt teams).
Top 8, definitely. 2-3 Zero teams maybe.
If Vanilla SF4 was still alive would Sagat still be the best character or would it be Akuma?
And Zero probably won't win EVO but the chance isn't nil, it's certainly a possibility. One Zero team is likely in top 8, 2-3 is unlikely but possible and anything above that would be a big anomaly.
I would say a "standard" UMVC3 top 8 would look like this:
3-4 Doom
2-3 Vergil
1-2 Magneto
1-2 Wolverine
1 Morrigan
1 Wesker
1 Nova
1 Spencer
1 Zero
1 Dante
1 Sentinel
1 Strider
1 Viper
1 Haggar
1 Dormammu
1 of these characters: Ammy, Akuma, Strange, Storm, MODOK, Taskmaster, Hawkeye
1 character that is sort of rare in top 8
That's pretty much what the top 8s of UMVC3 have looked like on average for the past majors. Aside from the first 3-4 characters a top 8 generally has good balance of characters in it.

Why not? Zero won EVO before.

It's like P4A. Mitsuru is the best character but Teddie is the character that can fight Mitsuru. O.Sagat is Mitsuru.

I believe in a Shuma or a MODOK winning, they are the characters i use, i want to see someone take them to the top (Angelic/Moons/Frutsy, do it for me).
Though yes, a Zero trilogy could kill pretty much any player.

Damn you edited before I could say Yu is vanilla Ryu. Trade Ultra and super trap made vanilla interesting.

Yup it was a circle jerk for the original series.

Trade ultra was a bit dumb, the trap stuff was interesting though.

I like games where a bad guess loses you 60% of your health.

I like that too, but the trade wasn't really a bad guess it was more of a reward for someone having to make less good guesses than you with a tool that covers multiple things.
Basically both players make a bad guess but the ryu player gets rewarded

Pretty sure he wasn't, he was at 2010 though.

Just like Teddie. Upper mid character that counters the best character. Vega could loop Sagat forever if I remember right.

He damn sure wasn't top-tier. The mask penalty made sure of that.
