Who is this yukadon dude, man.

Honestly, Li Joe aside, this is not a hype top 8. I can't remember the last time I ever saw so many mirror matches at Evo.

 

[LiK]

Infil should go Sim lol

 

[ramoisdead]

Infil should just pick Hakan

ftfy

 

[GorillaJu]

Man that's fine if you don't like it but I'm loving this expert play here. It's not like I am watching bronze boyz go at it

There are always, always "yawn, boring" whiners during big tournaments.

It's excellent play, I think what's missing is likable players on stage. There's no Umehara, no Tokido, LI Joe was knocked out, guys like GO1 and MOV, while not unknown by any stretch, just aren't popular players in the western FGC.

Canon battle was pretty good

 

[Zekes!]

is Yukadon the secret protagonist

 

[salty_Josh]

Okay I know I'm really tired but I'm pretty sure these adds are broken

 

[Trickster]

Only Mika can save us from the boredom. I bet the haters are feeling dumb now!

:O

I might just close the stream if the finals turns into a Nash mirrors honestly. It watch enjoyable to watch when gaf and everyone else was going crazy for joe. But without that hype element I'd rather go to sleep lol, it's fucking 6 am here...

 

[StriKeVillain]

Fuudo would make the best Velma cosplayer.

 

[TheSpoiler]

Yukadon is still pretty crazy. I gave him shit but honestly his reads and reactions are insane. That jumping medium was crazy.

 

[Eleuin]

save us fuudo

 

[BadWolf]

Infil should go Sim lol

Random select pls.

 

[SolarPowered]

can't believe there are actually people saying nash and chun shouldn't get nerfed at all

Ryu and Ken are bigger problems for a larger amount of people. Nash is annoying, but he isn't a wall and few people play Chun online.

 

[Gunslinger]

If fudo can't beat infiltration then he will win this free.

Fuudo is our only hope!

 

[cj_iwakura]

Back to twitch for me, but wow, ESPN was unreal. I hope this did well and becomes a regular thing. How have the ratings been with their other game tournament showings?

 

[LiK]

it's like one of those animes.

Yeah i agree.

No Tokido, no Momochi...

Not feeling the top 8 this year.

 

[Kodaman]

Not surprising when you get chun mirrors and then chun/nash matches. Very boring to watch honestly.

I think it has more to do with these being "unknown" japanese players

If this was a Momochi vs Gamerbee mirror it would be a lot more hype

 

[tintin1029]

I swear if Mika wins.

 

[creatchee]

I wonder when all of this is said and done....
.... will ESPN free us?

 

[Megasoum]

First time I watch the EVO finals... Roughly how long do you guys think there's left on that thing? Like 30min, 1h, 2h?


Trying to decide if it's worth it staying up to watch it.

 

[sf2fanatic]

"Machine" Infiltration!!

 

[Mr. X]

Yukadon the secret weapon of the Japan FGC

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Fudo got this we don't need a nash mirror final .

 

[lazybones18]

Go Fuudo!

 

[SDBurton]

Fuudo would make the best Velma cosplayer.

What's on your mind StriKeVillain? Hmmmm? ;D

Spoiler

jk

still a good hour left.

 

[GaimeGuy]

All I want is buttslap special on national TV.

Is that too much to ask for?

 

[16BitNova]

3-0 top 8 win from a kid!



ps3ud0 8)

Public Enemy #1.

 

[Hoya Destroyer]

I'll cheer anyone not using Nash or Chun.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

What is all this nerf shit? If you're gonna spout that shit at least provide an example of what you think is OP. Otherwise you're just complaining for no reason.

Reason 1) They're winning

Reason 2) uh.

 

[Xeteh]

3 more sets: Winners Finals, Losers Finals and then Grand Finals.

Its hard to say how long it'll be because there are longer breaks for TV commercials.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

12:18am if this Mika loses I'm checking out

 

[7DollarHagane]

The one thing you can argue is that Nash has an answer for everything, a get out of jail free reversal, stupid easy super cancel, and good damage on his bnb, as well as great normals and a great dash..

He's like the ideal character for this game but he's just kind of boring when played perfectly, and doesn't have any real uphill matchups.

 

[Neoxon]

I'm pullin' for Rainbow Mika.

 

[Number_6]

Oh my god, watching on ESPN2 now, and it's almost as annoying as the stuttering, freezing mess that is twitch because of how you can hear the echo of the other announcers in the background. Why didn't they just use the same announcers for both?

All y'all with stuttering twitch need to try out livestreamer. It's a little command line program, you tell it a stream and a quality, it plays it with VLC. No stuttering, smooth as butter if butter was able to stream live video.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Go Fuudo!

I love Inf, but I'll never betray Queen Mika.

 

[Platinum Mad]

Back to twitch for me, but wow, ESPN was unreal. I hope this did well and becomes a regular thing. How have the ratings been with their other game tournament showings?

CS:GO, the biggest viewing FPS, did pretty bad in ratings so this probably isn't going to be huge sadly.

 

[Rice-Eater]

I'm actually rooting for Fuudo because I don't want the possibility of a Nash mirror in GF. I think Nash vs Mika would be a pretty good match up to watch though. Nash playing keep away and Mika chasing from one end to another.

 

[def sim]

Who is this yukadon dude, man.

He apparently lives with Eita and Mov. His performance here is making a whole lot of sense.

 

[XenoRaven]

There used to be no Momochi, no Tokido, no Gamerbee, no Fuudo, no Infiltration.

At some point new players rise. It's OK. Enjoy the game.

 

[Vex_]

Fudo got this we don't need a nash mirror final .

Infiltration Finnah light fiyah under his ass! Lmmaapo

 

[silentQ]

Oh look not Nash or Chun too bad she will just be shredded by Infiltration...

 

[140.85]

Let's

Go

Fuu

Do

 

[sf2fanatic]

All I want is Boxer to win on his SF 2 stage theme

 

[LiK]

I swear if Mika wins.

best thing ever

 

[Fitts]

Mika time! Love both these guys but c'mon, Fuudo!

 

[Secret Character]

Fuuuuudooooooo.

I'm glad there's a Mika at the top.

 

[SolarPowered]

Please deliver us from Nash mirrors, Fuudo.
