Will SFIV at EVO come in full circle? Can ma man Daigo win the last SFIV as main event at EVO? Or he is too washed? Anyway super hyped for this.Look forward to this all year.

Snake Eyez ftw

 

[squall23]

Daigo will win this year, I can feel it!

Daigo looked amazing during that Gunslinger Stratos tournament.

Also, Pepeday will be in EVO this year right?

 

[Karsticles]

excited as fuck for these 3 matches, they're gonna be fucking wild

america vs japan might actually be doable given the format and how in-shape the japanese guys are- they're all serious matches for team gods barring chou. unless apologyman sweeps the shit out of them because they don't know how to escape the firebrand unblockable (god i hope that doesn't happen)

dual kevin beat fchamp in two ft5s in a row and he's a deadpool player
mixup is lol and no matter the result im gonna get good laughs out of it

There is no escaping my unblockables. ;-D

Did someone make a video about how to get out of the Skull ones?

 

[Pics_nao]

Gonna be working all day Friday but I'll find a way to catch Ultimax. Gonna stream monster so hard once Saturday hits.

If you can sponsor FChamp, Kadey can promote Beef.

I might have Saturday off from work. Let's go baby EVO hype all weekend!

 

[Osu 16 Bit]

Feeling myself for being a notable player despite not competing anymore

for Smug

he's gonna need more than that.

i don't know if anyone ever made a video but it's pretty known among strong tournament players nowadays by nature of 'oh hey there's an answer to this shit' once they saw fchamp start using the escapes

now doing the harder but resource-less escapes without having practiced it a lot is a different story altogether since the xfc one is actually really easy and works on both versions of the firebrand/skrull unblockable setup (meaty assist and nonmeaty assist)

 

[BY2K]

Wait, prog is gonna be there? I thought he retired!

 

[fluffydelusions]

Also, isn't C/Katherine in there this year? That should be fun

 

[Kadey]

animeevo thread where

It's in the misc section.

 

[cj_iwakura]

It's actually taking the main stage away from SF4 due to sheer turnout and hype.

Spoiler

we can still hope

 

[cj_iwakura]

It's in the misc section.

Since it says fighters, would you be kind enough to mention this is the first ever Catherine tournament at Evo?

http://www.dustloop.com/forums/inde...-official-atlus-catherine-tournament-evo2015/

It'll be at twitch.com/AtlusUSA , I believe.

 

[ponpo]

Maybe.

It's in the misc section.

I mean a thread, not a link to the doc.

Maybe not needed but I think some people are interested in side tournament anime games more than main stage evo ones.

 

[Kadey]

Wait, prog is gonna be there? I thought he retired!

Commentating takes a lot of energy for him but he's still there hanging out and kicking it with people and also competing apparently. Who knows, if he's up for it he might even do some commentating.

 

[EndlessSky]

I haven't been keeping up too closely with SF, but how is Luffy's prospects of going all the way again? Either way, I'm pulling for Bonchan, PR Balrog or Smug because those characters are great.

 

[Kadey]

AnimEVO is not just anime, it's basically a list of all the side tournaments. Doesn't really need it's own thread. Once streams are up. People will post what is going on in various streams accordingly. Once streaming info is finalized for EVO itself I will post it.

I could add anything to the misc section. That's why it's there. Basically anything related to EVO.

 

[Deku Tree]

I'm gonna watch. Nice OP Kadey.

 

[BakedYams]

Top 8 Mahvel gonna be like...

Cause I'm rooting for my boy CLACKWERK!

Plus...

I have in the new young bloods to come and rip the throats of all the top players!

Last but not least, last day gonna have me

Sort of true, except any discussion of the smaller titles disappears behind 3 pages in 20 seconds of YO DAAMMN KAPPA when someone punches someone in Marvel.

RIP EXVS

This is probably my most anticipated event to watch every year

Go USA!!!

Kadey if you want to include the old man wheelchair races there's some info here:

No stream info or actual times yet unfortunately

Edit: I see the listing in the animeevo website. Carry on

His chances of winning are low but he has a decent chance of placing top 8.

Perfect

needs more duffs

 

[SargerusBR]

This is gonna be great

 

[SDBurton]

Just got my internet set up at the new place, I'm so ready!

The King.

Him and my boy Poongko will wreck everyone's shit this year

So everything in one thread? Those of us that care about the EXVS side tourney, for example, will just get drowned out by others watching bigger games

what the hell

Beef confirmed more notable than Blackule

Maybe he can make it next year if he becomes esports by streaming

Feeling like it's going to be an EVO to remember.

I think it's a sound argument. I'm perfectly cool with an AnimEvo thread. The hype does tend to get squashed in the big threads. Any objections?

 

[mbpm1]

[Karsticles]

IMO, ask Shouta first. He is the mod that handles fighting game stuff. I see sound reasoning in having a second thread. Evo is getting big.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Subscribed. No work Friday so I'm gonna get some beer and grill out for this I think.

Yes, by myself.

I'm weird.

No objections from me. I could put one together if you guys don't mind.

I wouldn't call it fragmentation, just subsectioning. The Ultimax finals at CEO were nuts, but any replies about it were easily drowned out.

It's not really fragmentation. My post was a joke but it's kind of true. The threads start to move as fast as twitch chat any it's hard to have any discussion that isn't about the main or second stream.

Spoiler

I don't care either way since IRC is the superior place for Evo discussion

 

[mbpm1]

"I don't"

"I don't know much"

We need an Evo meetup thread!

this day would come sooner or later

I was considering it, but if you have the chops to make it shiny like this OP, go for it.
