[Ledsen]

Will there be archive links with timestamps in the OP? I'd like to watch AE top 16.

 

[GuardianE]

Watched some Injustice and MvC3,, ugh, both are really hard to watch. I really dislike the whole gameplay flow of MvC3, it sucks and Injustice has such bad art direction that even the announcers dont know exactly whats going on in a fight.

Watching SF IV and KOF was a much better experience.

I think it makes sense that games with more complex mechanics inherently would be confusing or offputting to someone watching who doesn't play it.

 

[Horseress]

Its been pretty great as a tourny. I really wanted Uryo in To;p 8 but he had to play Jibbo and I wanted Jibbo to win too. =(

At least Uryo beat Ricky, that shit so gross.

Heading down to watch finals in person now.

Ricky too free to Blazing Kick

 

[Busaiku]

So is this top 8?

Verna, MadKOF, Tokido, Hee San Woo
Reynald, Xian, Fox, Romance

Thank you everyone told me to support! I'm sorry tamely.

 

[ad_idem]

I can't believe Ray still fuckin plays Ryu, after all this time

He still swaps out Ryu for Doom when he's playing serious nowadays. You'll see him do it if he makes it further in the bracket.

 

[RellyRell28]

How the fuck does every system not have dlc

 

[Htown]

stream system doesn't have dlc characters

amazing

 

[fluffydelusions]

lol hilarious

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

the biggest fighting tournament in the world and the system doesn't have all the dlc characters

:\

 

[The Light]

so he's just messing around?

 

[EarlyEarly]

What happened to all the Mexicans better than Bala that went to Evo?

 

[Infinite]

Realistically, what Hulk experience would Nemo have except for KBR?

We already know they have very little Storm experience in Japan.

OGTY

fubarduck @fubarduck
Ponce just put Nemo into Loser's off stream 3-1

Our only hope...

 

[Regulus Tera]

Is it SFXT top 8 time now?

 

[Jintor]

Just woke up, what's everyone watching this morning

 

[sf2fanatic]

Someone going outside of the norm....

 

[Tyrant Rave]

How could they have a setup without the DLC?

 

[Kellen]

fubarduck @fubarduck

NEMO PLS

 

[Htown]

like how do you not have this shit together?

it's not like they decided to have Evo last week

 

[xCobalt]

Anything entertaining happen when marvel moved to the third stream? I saw a glimpse of Nemo vs Mike Ross, thats about it.

Edit: beaten

 

[Dahbomb]

Our only hope...

Expected given his performance against Mike Ross.

Looks like he ran out of juice after winning all those matches yesterday. Yipes tier confirmed.

I like watching mahvel, but I'll agree regarding Injustice. What a dull and unexciting game to watch unfold.

 

[Sixfortyfive]

How the fuck does every system not have dlc

I think Wiz said only half the stations in each pool had them. Must have hooked the wrong one up to the stream.

 

[Alucrid]

No Rufus? Greatest EVO ever.

 

[Strange in Stereo]

What happened to all the Mexicans better than Bala that went to Evo?

They didn't go.

Who says I dont play these games?

Speaking of which... I wonder how Yipes is doing.

 

[The Last Emperor]

Gamers for Christ lmao

 

[LordJim]

Chou was Japan's only hope in the end

 

[Busaiku]

Give Dogura his money.

 

[Dahbomb]

Dude you already asked that and I already told you he qualified in Winners.

 

[Veggy]

So are they still doing a Marvel update on Capcom Unity like they did with Street Fighter earlier?

 

[Horseress]

Is it SFXT top 8 time now?

It will start shortly on the 3º stream

 

[evil monkey]

Daigo just lost a match on the ST stream. Is he now in losers or out of the tourney?

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Injustice is pretty fun to watch. Didn't know much about it, but the last match with Batman and Sinister (?) was pretty cool.

It's the one fighter I don't know anything about but it's really fun to watch. I really love how the changed the shittyness of breakers into a cinematic clash system with a gambling element, it looks cool as fuck and makes the leading players meter use really interesting, for example Chris G in particular seems to save stocks when he's ahead to nullify the effects of the clash or even make it so it works to his advantage.

 

[Sigmaah]

So are they still doing a Marvel update on Capcom Unity like they did with Street Fighter earlier?

Sadly nope. It'll NEVER happen :<

 

[TheOGB]

lmao Idaho is not Canada

[Busaiku]

Our only hope...

Kadey on Kreygasm watch.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

so he's just messing around?

He uses Ryu still depending on the team he has to fight.

 

[GuardianE]

Who says I dont play it?

Your post makes it sound like you don't. If you're having trouble following what's going on when you're spectating, that makes it unlikely that you'd understand or be able to tolerate seeing the game while playing.

 

[SixMachine]

I think it makes sense that games with more complex mechanics inherently would be confusing or offputting to someone watching who doesn't play it.

From personal experience trying to teach someone how to get into KOF is harder than something like Injustice or Marvel, and I think the mechanics of KOF are more complex than Injustice. Especially since something like the jump arcs are hard for people to get down consistently and make second nature. Watching KOF is definitely easier to follow than Marvel because there's only 2 characters to follow.

 

[El Sloth]

-Team Injustice is fun to watch-

What happened to all the Mexicans better than Bala that went to Evo?

Seriously. I remember bunch of dudes poopoo'ing Bala saying they had a bunch of guys better than him in Mexico who couldn't make it out last year. Well, now they had their chance...

Lolllll I guess the guy who beat me just beat nemo? THE DREAM IS ALIVE

 

[GuardianE]

Dude you already asked that and I already told you he qualified in Winners.

Sorry, for some reason I didn't think this was still pools.

Especially since something like the jump arcs are hard for people to get down consistently and make second nature.

KOF is harder to play than both, but I'm just saying there are more complicated mechanics inherently. It's not necessarily intuitive with games like Marvel. Injustice, I suppose, though there's still interactables, stage transitions, and clashes that are just kind of weird when you first see them.
