[Papercuts]

Damn, Grimmz seemed nervous with a lot of dropped combos.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Goddamn he got bodied

 

[IronLich]

Sad for Grimmz, but... Mygod...

 

[StriKeVillain]

Damn. MyGod upsetting Grimmz PAID OUT.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

KI is going by quick

 

[PAULINK]

baja blast is a sponsor? lol

 

[NexusCell]

Man, Grimmz wasn't on top of his game there

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Nah.

Then you think Xrd and CP will be there together? I dunno. Is there a reason P4AU, a newer game, would be omitted for a BBCP spot?

 

[SDBurton]

Grimmz relying too much on manuals. MyGod sees through his strategy.

Pretty much, MyGod just tore through him after he caught on.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

Man, i feel really bad for KI. Terrible timing with when its on stream, it has to follow that amazing Blazblue finals, and these matches are pretty eh so far. Pretty dominant stuff.

 

[Veggy]

First time seeing high level KI play, I'm finding it kind of.....boring

 

[VariantX]

Dunno. Did you see this year's treatment? Not even pools streamed.

Awful commentary too, like watching c-span or a golf game.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

The skill gap between those that were in winners and those in losers seems pretty drastic. Jago and Orchid were dropping combos for days.

 

[T.O.P]

Man, Grimmz wasn't on top of his game there

Can easily say i never saw him droping that many manuals

 

[Moaradin]

Guess It's about time for Twitch to act up. I guess the last two days were running too smoothly.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

KI is one of those games that are super fun to play, but meh to watch

 

[antibolo]

Nah.

As hype as BBCP was today, the majority of its players will most likely have moved to either GGXrd or P4AU next year.

Then again Japan already has both games in their arcades, so maybe not...

 

[SDBurton]

Guy repping the Deutschland.

 

[Sydle]

This, I feel bad for him.

 

[Drayco21]

I had to walk out before Blazblue and apparently missed something incredible- are the matches going to get posted anywhere afterwards?

 

[BumblebeeCody]

wow WTF happened? Dissapointed.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

KI is one of those games that are super fun to play, but meh to watch

Semis was good last night, but yeah, so far, Top 8 has just been one person dominating the other.

 

[enzo_gt]

BlazBlue

Man, that was a really long time ago. EVO has become much more accomodating since. Back then games were actually competing for spots.

 

[Papercuts]

Opened with a 56% combo, lol

 

[Coffeeling]

Yeah, it seems the excitement and Evo popularity for KoF XIII is dying down. It's been exciting in the past, though, and there are dedicated players to it.

The matches were really amazing this year too though. The commentary was just bad. I hope Juice does a recap so we can have the great games with enthusiastic commentary. Sadly no game audio then :/

 

[IronLich]

THAT'S 60% WELCOME TO THUNDERIA

 

[rrc1594]

can we pleases get godspeed

 

[NexusCell]

TSwagg getting dominated

 

[T.O.P]

Based thunder

 

[chaosblade]

First time seeing high level KI play, I'm finding it kind of.....boring

Yeah, not really familiar with either game but Blazblue was more fun to watch.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Fucking DESTROYED!

 

[SDBurton]

Thunder be scary. Goddamn!

 

[88random]

I don't get this game

 

[Papercuts]

Tswagg has been getting rocked today.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Destroyed

 

[Hag]

BB was beautiful. Fuck.

 

[BassForever]

Gonna close the stream for now, KI is a really bland game, not as bad as Injustice but it's not very hype

 

[Saikyo]

I think Kof XIII will not be in EVO 2015, the hype is gone...maybe finally put SkullGirls on the line up?

 

[darkblade77]

Then you think Xrd and CP will be there together? I dunno. Is there a reason P4AU, a newer game, would be omitted for a BBCP spot?

It's going to come down to each game's actual reception and tournament showing/strength, along with developer support. Plus as we saw with KOF, being a crowd favorite from the previous year(s) helps as well..

Unless Blazblue representation drops off like a rock naturally in the next half-year, there's no way it isn't coming back.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

LMAO

 

[Curry-Hakase]

That's really hard to say, BB has definitely carved its own niche in the community and there are definitely a good amount of BB players that are a bit skeptic about Xrd.

 

[enzo_gt]

Something about this commentary is making it not as hype as it could be. Can't put my finger on it though.

 

[Busaiku]

Man, that was a really long time ago. EVO has become much more accomodating since. Back then games were actually competing for spots.

It wasn't that long ago, Continuum Shift Extend didn't make it in 2012.

 

[antibolo]

Implying that they're not competing anymore?? lolwut. Skullgirls players would like a word with you.

 

[T.O.P]

Lmao these yolo grabs

 

[Amagon]

Finally won some $$$

 

[sechsterangriff]

Better question here is, when was the last time EVO didn't give a truly new game a slot in the EVO following it's release? Skullgirls maybe, which is sort of a special case?

Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown ?

 

[NexusCell]

THUNDERSTRUCK

 

[T.O.P]

I'm loving this guy so much lol

 

[iori9999]

It wasn't that long ago, Continuum Shift Extend didn't make it in 2012.

To be fair, that version was hot garbage..
