Japan has several good Juri players. aiaitomo is one of them.

True but few are at Evo making this one extra sweet.

 

[Rainy]

lmao still can't believe valle beat bonchan, free too.

 

[Producer]

$20 moneymatch hype

 

[Fitts]

Pulling for the winner of Rog/Nemo

Spoiler

(or Infil)

to take it all but my head says winner of Momochi/Tokido wins EVO.

 

[AmethystEnd]

So many good matches today.

Valle vs bonchan
daigo vs misse
du vs fuudo
etc.

Oh fuck, you just reminded me. That Daigo vs Misse match. Fucking blitzkrieg back and forth. So sexy. Can't wait for vods of that.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

Watch a little dead game called Marvel http://www.twitch.tv/bifuteki

Spoiler

Kappa

It's looking like some good marvel if that first game of Ray/Clock is anything to go by

 

[toddhunter]

Only reason I enjoy watching Daigo lose is because it means that FGW doesn't get to fellate him for a whole month.

I can respect that.

Reading endless posts about how Justin Wong is amazing for winning a dead game that nobody cares about, including him, annoys me too.

 

[Randam]

Any fuertes in top 8?

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Yeah but Justin Wong actually wins and makes top 8s (and is ranked/seeded #1)....

Yeah but we don't make FGW titles based on dead games

 

[Lucumo]

True but few are at Evo making this one extra sweet.

Most definitely. But it always makes me wish Tougeki was still a thing.

 

[Dark Ninja]

True but few are at Evo making this one extra sweet.

Infiltration plays Juri, who Ai Ai is playing first. Ai Ai was getting away with xbox live Juri tech

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

What is my life without Daigo in top 8?

Infiltration is an abberration. He plays EVERYONE!

 

[Rean]

I don't think so

My favorite was all the whining about Rose

With thanks to Eventhubs

Damn, louffy didn't make top 64?

 

[Moaradin]

I watched most SF matches on stream today and I'm drained lol. Definitely gonna take it easy tomorrow. Mainly check out finals for smash and go watch Ant-Man. Sunday is gonna be a long and amazing day.

 

[xCobalt]

Nah I think sp00ky's recognized and well regarded.

I think Spooky is above average compared to the other commentators. One thing I dislike about his commentary is if he's not feeling it, its sounds really dull. His game knowledge isn't as good as other commentators too from what I noticed.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

What is my life without Daigo in top 8?

similar to last year

 

[Papercuts]

My favorite was all the whining about Rose

What happened to Luffy this year? I think I missed it.

 

[Sheroking]

I can respect that.

Reading endless posts about how Justin Wong is amazing for winning a dead game that nobody cares about, including him, annoys me too.

They're the two biggest superstars in the history of fighting games for their long, amazing records across many, many games and big time tournament moments. I believe they are the two most winning players in the history of EVO with 7 titles a piece, and who knows how many top-8's.

It stands to reason they would get more praise when they do something spectacular. Wouldn't surprise me if they are on the very short list at the top of the mountain early in SFV as well.

 

[mbpm1]

Can you imagine Aiai winning Evo? First appearance overseas lol. That's pretty nice.

I want this to happen. It would be like a sped up version of Xian climbing to the top at Evo 2013.

What happened to Luffy this year? I think I missed it.

Destroyed by Dieminion and Itabashi Zangief.

All I'm watching tomorrow is competitive Catherine, lol.

 

[Rocwell]

You better believe everyone else in top 8 is going to be trying to scout this guy during their time off tomorrow.

 

[entremet]

Wow @ knuckledu

 

[DryEyeRelief]

So I missed pretty much all of Day 1, what is the biggest news of the day?

Even if you have two streams, it isn't feasible to show every match? Especially in a 2200 man tournament? I think that's the lesson of the day.

 

[kasane]

Holy shit Ai Ai made Top 8 winners, was his run hype?

it was

 

[enzo_gt]

Even if you have two streams, it isn't feasible to show every match? Especially in a 2200 man tournament? I think that's the lesson of the day.

I'm gonna assume this post is inferring Daigo got eliminated off screen again?

 

[ShinMaruku]

I may catch some of Tekken. Not watching Marvel pools though. Kinda over that game.

 

[sf2fanatic]

So I missed pretty much all of Day 1, what is the biggest news of the day?

No Daigo..

 

[Sblargh]

It's ok Daigo. Next year SF5 will be out and you will be able to play some honest street fighter with regular Ryu.

 

[Unlucky]

Japan vs US in Marvel salty suite not happening tonight

ねも ‏@GOOD_NEMO 46s

Good, now I can actually get some sleep tonight.

 

[mbpm1]

That happened last year too.

 

[Nemesis121]

Damn, louffy didn't make top 64?

He smashed in Quarters then beaten down again in losers..

 

[Parallax Scroll]

I'm gonna assume this post is inferring Daigo got eliminated off screen again?

Nah Daigo got 9th.

 

[Codiox]

Fuck it, right before the usf4 quarterfinals I felt asleep and missed the rest of usf4 completely! Where can I watch it again?

 

[ShinMaruku]

two americans in top 8.

That's not notable that always happens

That happened last year too.

Just by the amount of American bodies 2 atleast will always slip in. Never gonna win it though.

 

[jerry1594]

Did I miss CvS2?

Apparently not. Not sure if it's buried somewhere in the buried Animevo thread, but it's tomorrow at 4pm pst. It was delayed since 50+ people registered.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Not in one day anyway

 

[galvatron]

[QUOTE="God's Beard!";172252055]In that situation he was at disadvantage at point blank with no life. He has three options: EX DP, Ultra, or backdash. Backdash puts him back in the same situation so that's out, and between the two invincible moves only Ultra wins the game for him on the spot. It's a low-percentage option, but he didn't have another choice unless he expects Daigo to not try and kill him.[/QUOTE]

What part of that "low percentage option" landing cleanly was not random (as in unlikely) again? Every random ultra is meant to land...

I would have rather he had smaller exchanges to get back into it...he's certainly good enough to have done so, but it didn't play out that way. He played his ass off the rest of the match.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

I looked away but I think clock beat rayray 5-0

edit: maybe it was 5-1

 

[KidA Seven]

What happened to Luffy this year? I think I missed it.

It's just like Momochi, Tokido, etc... said. Getting to top 8 involves a lot of luck. The matches in top 8 is what will show the true strength of the player.

 

[Eternal Flame]

I'm gonna assume this post is inferring Daigo got eliminated off screen again?

Nah he was eliminated on stream. He got sent to losers off stream though. There was a lot of trolling results today though.

 

[GuardianE]

That was phenomenal. Can't wait for tomorrow.
