So, new SFV character at the panel or on stream? I guess on stream, but there has to be something at the panel.

hype level for marvel has increased tenfold

lol wasn't this a rumour last year too? We kept going through the brackets looking for unknown people or potential troll names that could be Kusoru

s/o to Diego

EVO SFV shirt

Dope.

 

[Professor Beef]

Jay Leno Bison looks ugly, not 100% sure if I want that shirt.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

The question came up yesterday about a stadium for the next one. I think we'll see the evo staff hand it off to a company before that happens.

That seems way too big. What kind of stadium? Vegas? Thomas and mack? Is there smaller ones?

 

[pixelish]

is it logistically feasible to have the first two days at a ballroom and move finals day to a convention centre/arena so they can accommodate everyone who wants to watch the finals?

 

[Wedge7]

Nice, hyped again as always. One of the few FGC tournies I watch all year, always a lot of fun. Was seriously considering heading to Vegas this year, but not in the cards, maybe next year. Will be hooked to twitch all weekend.

Anyone got top 8 predictions for sf? I simulated the brackets with an excel file and i'm standing like this:

1: Momochi
2: Infiltration
3: Daigo
4: Strider
5: Poongko
5: Kazunoko
7: Smug
7: Bonchan

I reckon we'll get two announcements. Maybe they'll announce this new character on the panel - that gives them a chance to go into detail about whatever new gimmicks he brings with his play style, and they can push the trailer to their social media & online channels at the same time...

And then on grand finals when Ono takes to the stage they can do just a trailer for a returning character, somebody the Evo audience will get hype for (SF3, perhaps?)

I'm only going to predict Kazunoko in top 8. I have no clue. If it was a ft3 throughout quarters and semis it would be a lot easier, but this? I have no clue.

I just ran the matchups and went with my gut, i would be surprised if more than 3 players from my top 8 actually make it.

Interesting. What are Smug's potentially hardest match ups getting into top 8?

I have him losing to Infiltration right out of pools and beating FChamp, Latif, Ryan Hart, Shiro, Sako, RB in losers before getting eliminated by Daigo.

Oh god.

damn lol, that line up.

It was just a general question posed by Mike Ross to Mr Wizard. He seemed dismissive of it, but he's always kept future plans under wraps.

I think we'll see something like that for finals Sunday in a few years.

So which games are you guys gonna be watching? Also, how may streams will it have?

8 streams! Gonna watch every minute of SF4. On Saturday, gonna watch a lot of MK, Marvel semis, and also see what Tekken 7 plays like. Watching every finals except for a couple games which I won't name as they've been piled on enough

 

[Number45]

I understand at least some SF, so that's what I enjoy watching. Occasionally I'll tune in and see something else on stream, but after about 5 minutes without me knowing what the fuck is going on I'll tune out.

SF is the only fighting game I've ever enjoyed (CvsSNK2 also, but even in that I tended to stick to the SF characters), or really tried to enjoy. And now I'm old and set in my ways, and have no desire to change that.

gootecks is a top player? lol and LPN too

 

[Keits]

Hello my friends. Killer Instinct has changed a lot with Season 2 and has gotten really really fun to watch. Please give it a try this Saturday.

 

[atomic moth]

No problem. It was definitely more interesting at CEO than I remembered at the last EVO

 

[Unlucky]

Suggest adding this to OP. Graphic for Evo side events schedule & streams

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I'm hype. I probably won't watch the whole thing this year. I'll be dippin in and out.

Who is that ghostly one next to Mike Ross?

 

[FacelessSamurai]

I'll be on the road for the first and final day and will have to tether my phone to my laptop to watch the streams. Anyone has info on how much data per hour the low quality stream uses? I can't seem to find that info online. I don't want to go over my monthly limit but I just can't miss Evo either.

 

[Seyavesh]

hype level for marvel has increased tenfold

it's obviously a troll, cmon dude it's honzo

if kusoru was going (or even playing marvel) then the japan marvel boys would've already been making a ruckus

 

[Cramoss]

Does anyone know if there'll be a youtube stream? Twitch has been running like shit for me these last few months.

Wondering the same

I don't think so, but you might get better performance on the twitch stream by using a program called Livestreamer.

Yeah, I tried this yesterday and it works really well.

There is also a Twitch GUI available for Livestreamer, looks great.

Thanks, I'll definitely try it.
