Stable is the wrong word.

It's more like the competition at evo for marvel is the same as you would see at any tournament, where street fighter at evo is a once in a year thing.
This is some nice spin on the word "stable".

No other major pulls 1000 players for Marvel. Many top players do not in fact travel across to majors to compete (it's only 4 big players who travel a lot and hence win a lot) but almost all of them travel to EVO. EVO is still extremely tough to do well in for that game so it's an accomplishment to stay consistent in it across not only majors but EVOs as well.

You actually very rarely get the top 5 best Marvel players at one major. Usually one or two of them are missing and that can usually be the difference in who faces who in grand finals.

I know you meant that light-heartedly, but I found French people of Asian descent so completely naturalized that they barely speak a lick of their old language/dialect lol.

I'm Hmong(see Gran Torino if you want some idea while being entertained) and my wife has relatives in France(their is a tiny community of Hmong people). She told me the same thing, her cousins don't speak a lick of Hmong, French. I'm almost no different. I speak English almost all the time and my Hmong is horrid.

I doubt people will be complaining about off stream matches tomorrow like they did today.

Good morning everyone!

Any links to catch rebroadcasts from Tekken Tag 2 Finals?

twitch.tv/srkevo2 <--- Tekken pools (mixed with injustice)

twitch.tv/srkevo1 <--- Tekken finals (after Smash stuff)

Edit: I know the HD feed isn't behind a paywall this year, but don't recall if archives are (so, sorry if they are).

sako is there not only because he is sako but also thanks to all the characters that he can play.

And daigo... he "decided to lose", basically. He would have beaten champs dhaldim easily with yun without risking playing "champs game" and, then, he could have kept playing evil ryu for the rest of the tournament... You came from japan, its almost the only tournament were people can see you and you know that they want to see you, you want to keep playing, you are daigo... just take one free win. no??

edit: i mean, he KNEW (daigo has already lost enough against him before to know) that champ was dangerous. But not so much if he used yun.

I am sad Dudley lost -- I've seen a lot of Balrog. Kind of like Rose before today, I'm not sure I've ever seen Dudley win a series.

I play Balrog and I have to say that match is in Balrog's favor unless you're playing Smug. Cause Smug's a different monster, but Keno obviously no slouch. So if two players of equal skill I give it to Rog.
