Hyper DBZ casuals. Gohan and Frieza are unlocked. Twitch.tv/guardbreak. If you're at Evo, it's at the Underground Syndicate booth.

I would personally like to see stats that are more relevant to the matches. Seeing win rates doesn't provide any meaningful data to me. I think something similar to the UFC would be more interesting The UFC provides fight stats as the match progresses. For example, they have numbers for: number of strikes landed, takedown attempts/defended, ect. In regards to how this would work for fighting games, you could show viewers how often an overhead/low has been attempted, how well a player has been blocking on wakeup, ect. It's probably a lot of work but maybe you could just cover winners, losers and grand finals.

This is the dream, and it's something that I very much would like to see. However, without developer support, or a small army of scorekeepers, it's almost impossible to implement.

But, the intent is to lay a basic foundation and build, making it better with each iteration. I've already been spreading the idea that the FGC needs to have a scorekeeper position at each tournament, recording data that is fed back into stats. It's been a part of almost every conversation I've had with anyone interested in the stats at Evo (and there have been a lot of people interested in them).

Damn, I love ST. It's flawless.

You, I like you.

What hardware are they playing ST on?

It's a Supergun.

I was already expecting them to be recorded just like last year's side tourney, but niiiiice.

Part of the fun is watching it live with everyone else though.
