Top 8 Marvel 3:


Kaneblueriver: (Hulk/Haggar/Sentinel)
Angelic (Wolverine/Dormammu/Shuma Gorath)
Dual Kevin (Deadpool/Dante/Hawkeye)
Priest (MODOK/Magneto/Doom)

Justin Wong (Wolverine/Storm/Akuma)
ChrisG (Morrigan/Doom/Vergil)
Apologyman (Firebrand/Doom/Skrull)
Paradigm (Haggar/Arthur/Raccoon/Dormammu/Doom)


Highest character variety in a Marvel top 8 EVO yet.


Dual Kevin would be my dream win. Dude's match with ChrisG was peak Marvel 3 performance in terms of pretty much everything.

Marvel the best, the hypest game.

What Pocket character will Infiltration pull out tomorrow

i never want to see any nonsense again about how late game marvel is filled with the same characters winning

 

[Tekniqs]

they're going to have to be strict on schedule tomorrow right? none of this tournament standard time BS. I'm sure ESPN isn't going to move their timeslot if another game is taking too long lol

 

[skLaFarebear]

no karins in top 8 makes me very sad.

need to have an honorary audience ohoho for the espn viewers

wait. now OHOHOHOHOH will never be mainstream

Believe in Infiltration to get it on TV at least once.

 

[Szeth]

For those who don't have ESPN2. I may be able to provide a link tomorrow. We'll see.

Us Canadians would greatly appreciate it! Gotta have Mike and Seth.

 

[sf2fanatic]

i have a question

how the fuck did we fill out an entire evo thread last year before sunday

IMO Better side events last year, plus sfiv combos

 

[Lulubop]

So whats before SFV this year then? Its Smash isnt it? >_>

Check the OP bruh

 

[LiK]

no karins in top 8 makes me very sad.

thought Justin could pull it off but he got denied.

 

[mbpm1]

wait. now OHOHOHOHOH will never be mainstream

Now we just have "Scythe"!

"Competitive UMvC3 doesn't have character variety, anymore."

lolwut?

 

[RedEther]

USF4 was at an all time high in hype

 

[Ardenyal]

i have a question

I think every twitch chat was behind paywall.

 

[Neonep]

No lie though, having 3 Nashs & 2 Chuns in the Top 8 isn't a good look. Gotta buff Rashid & FANG and to a lesser extent Ryu & Ken. Gotta hit that nerf button on Nash and Chun Li.

 

[Kadey]

If you look at the threads from last year a lot of people in it are banned. Plus certain people don't like SFV and it seems a lot of people posted in the OT of some of the games instead of in here.

I did not think this year's EVO will surpass last year to begin with. Last year was Ultra's final year and the event just happened at the right time.

 

[mbpm1]

"Competitive UMvC3 doesn't have character variety, anymore."

lolwut?

It was bad for a time

 

[DryEyeRelief]

What Pocket character will Infiltration pull out tomorrow

rashid vs yukadon

 

[Platinum Mad]

Who esle does he play?

Fang and Alex. Rumors that there's more.

 

[Human Trashcan]

So happy Joe made it. How did PR Rog do? I missed his matches, aside from when he dominated in pools.

 

[I-hate-u]

+1.

It was bad for a time

Kane saved MVC3. Made people want to train harder.

 

[xCobalt]

How long did smash take last year? They allotted 4 hours for smash this year which could serve as a buffer in case one of the games go over time.

 

[Tekniqs]

well they have a buffer unlike today.

ahhh alright. makes sense

edit: when's capcom cup btw? And is it still in San Francisco or are they changing venues this year?

 

[Mass Effect]

Evo hates Smash confirmed.

 

[Tallshortman]

Well at least we can lord this over europe. Hoping Joe can go far but there's so many killers/non surprises in the rest of the top 8. That just speaks to how many top players came out from the rest of the world since there were tons of upsets after the second round of pools.

 

[mbpm1]

Give Rashid the El Fuerte treatment?

CHEER FOR HIM

 

[Gunslinger]

i have a question

obviously more people were interested in USFIV last year than SFV this year(atleast on NEOGAF). Unfinished release of SFV kind of turned off a lot people from the franchise even on this site. Just go to any SFV threads you will know.

 

[wheeplash]

Well gn guys see you at the finals!

 

[LiK]

So happy Joe made it. How did PR Rog do? I missed his matches, aside from when he dominated in pools.

some pretty awesome matches but i missed the one that he lost in.

 

[CommandThrower]

Looks like more and more Sm4sh top players are showing up on social media and expressing immense frustration with EVO this year. Some are just outright saying they won't go next year now.

/s

 

[Dark Ninja]

Gotta buff Rashid & FANG and to a lesser extent Ryu & Ken.

GET OUT

 

[Biolink]

No lie though, having 3 Nashs & 2 Chuns in the Top 8 isn't a good look. Gotta buff Rashid & FANG and to a lesser extent Ryu & Ken. Gotta hit that nerf button on Nash and Chun Li.

Buff Ryu? Lord 1/2 mercy

 

[SmackAttack]

wait. now OHOHOHOHOH will never be mainstream

no karins in top 8 makes me very sad.

Now this is the real sad part.

 

[Alucrid]

what

 

[skLaFarebear]

No lie though, having 3 Nashs & 2 Chuns in the Top 8 isn't a good look. Gotta buff Rashid & FANG and to a lesser extent Ryu & Ken. Gotta hit that nerf button on Nash and Chun Li.

Agreed. Ryu should have a command grab.

Looks like more and more Sm4sh top players are showing up on social media and expressing immense frustration with EVO this year. Some are just outright saying they won't go next year now.

Then maybe Sm4sh Top 8 will end earlier Kappa

 

[140.85]

Actually surprised only 1 Mika in top 8.

 

[Admiral Snackbar]

Agreed. Ryu should have a command grab.

Zangief should get Dhalsim's teleport. They've known each other long enough.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

lol buff ryu...

 

[toastyToast]

Good guy Infiltration will pull a pocket Guile out of his ass and sweep the finals for America

 

[Tallshortman]

Buff Ryu? Lord 1/2 mercy

Not just Ryu, Ryu and ken lmao

Obviously the character most japanese consider 1 or 2 and another top 5 character should be near first in line to get buffs.

 

[ironmang]

kaz still got xrd, it's ok folks

https://twitter.com/kazunoko0215/status/754568907298439168

CHEER FOR HIM

He seems like a really good dude so I'll be rooting for him for sure.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Buff Ryu? I can't even.

 

[Xeteh]

No lie though, having 3 Nashs & 2 Chuns in the Top 8 isn't a good look. Gotta buff Rashid & FANG and to a lesser extent Ryu & Ken. Gotta hit that nerf button on Nash and Chun Li.

Nerf one character that hasn't won anything and buff two of the most successful characters.

You're like quite possibly the worst balance theorycrafter ever.

 

[Romars202129]

GET OUT

Seriously. Ken and Ryu need buffs, wtf. Have you played this game before?

Nash is balanced. He's just also well liked by very good players.

 

[Human Trashcan]

I'm shocked Tokido and Daigo are both out tbh. Would've expected either/both in top 8 what happened?

 

[mbpm1]

Agreed. Ryu should have a command grab.

Give Ryu 0 frame startup on parry

 

[Wallach]

lmao @ buffing ryu or ken, fuck outta here

 

[Kadey]

We need 25k posts on Finals day to surpass last year. And nearly a million views.
