[abstract alien]

The #blackexcellence is just too powerful.

 

[ultracal31]

its nice to see punks family being supportive

 

[Giga Man]

I loved seeing his family's reaction.

"THAT'S MY BABY!"

Hits close to home, man.

 

[nicoga3000]

I don't pay attention to SFV, but holy shit that was fun to watch. It makes me want to play the game.

 

[Gorillaz]

[Immortal Technique]

Havent followed the FGC for a few years. Who is Sajam? How did he become important enough to commentate SF top 8 at EVO?

He started out on Wednesday Night Fights, but didn't take long before he started getting work at majors, as he's really good

 

[Boke1879]

You make your name at Evo

 

[Lulubop]

Who's doing the espn commentary?

 

[JayEH]

 

[jett]

hey maynes the discord channel isn't loading for me, what gives

 

[roflwaffles]

PUNK DA GAWD

 

[Fright Zone]

Damn, was rooting for Zangief.

Punk's family look, errm... enthusiastic.

 

[LucidMomentum]

Mama Punk getting hype let's go!

 

[mas8705]

Need to apologize for earlier: I thought it was four Americans and Four Japanese players, but it is actually 3 Americans and 5 Japanese.

that said, if Nuckledu beats Kazunoko, that means that the USA gets a guaranteed seat at Grand Finals!

 

[Grakl]

yo who's commentating on ESPN?

 

[Dahbomb]

USA definitely up 1-0 right now against Japan LOL!

 

[ironmang]

Zangief always stay free against a fireball/turtle char. Sigh

This isn't Sagat we're talking about. Character specialist should be able to be competitive here. Punk just destroyed him.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I loved seeing his family.

"THAT'S MY BABY!"

Hits close to home, man.

I love it. I love punk in general. If him or nuckle or tokido win I'm happy.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Who's doing the espn commentary?

S-Kill and Tasty Steve

 

[TheChits]

Who's doing the espn commentary?

Steve and S Kill

 

[SargerusBR]

DUUUUU

 

[Carlius]

lmao gootecks is so bad

 

[salty_Josh]

Punk isn't gonna get past Du if they come against each other. Du should beat Kazunoko for free

 

[mrmickfran]

lmfao 😂😂

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Let's go Du!

 

[MissDeviling]

Itabashi I always root for him and hope that one day he wins this kind of large event lol.

 

[Xeteh]

This isn't Sagat we're talking about. Character specialist should be able to be competitive here. Punk just destroyed him.

DESTROYED!

in three different 2-1 sets that for the most part were all super close.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

 

[sixteen-bit]

lol Jebailey denied the fistbump

 

[EnlightenedMint]

Come on Du!

 

[Dubz]

Hoping for a DU Punk Grand Finals. Go Duuuu!

 

[rec0ded1]

How's taquito this Evo?

 

[NastyBook]

Punk's family look, errm... enthusiastic.

Please proceed, Governor...

 

[Lulubop]

S-Kill and Tasty Steve

Damn, that sounds like a good duo

 

[SargerusBR]

dat USA 1-0 JPN makes it much better

 

[FaintColt388301]

Gooteks interviewing is about as good as his SFV play.

 

[Interficium]

And if you're going to jump, why wouldn't you air grab to change your jump arc?

I think that would have been the play; make Du use ex scythe and take his super off the board for a little bit even if you have to eat the damage. Facing nash on last round with meter where his super will kill you is impossible.

 

[Dahbomb]

How's taquito this Evo?

Nice but not American nice.

 

[Wallach]

Punk isn't gonna get past Du if they come against each other. Du should beat Kazunoko for free

kazunoko isn't free to anyone really

at like... any game

 

[Sn4ke_911]

GO KAZUNOKO!!!

 

[Tekniqs]

hey...who was that japanese player last year that was on camera when Eita's name was announced to come on the stage?

 

[salty_Josh]

This gif gets me every year

 

[dankir]

Was the main stage setup so simple last year? Two players on a single 30" TV? Didn't they at least have their own monitors in previous tourneys.

 

[Gbraga]

S-Kill and Tasty Steve

Fuuuuck, I want that!

 

[Neonep]

A black kid from Philly has everybody in the world shook in SFV. I like that a lot.

 

[Skab]

kazunoko isn't free to anyone really

at like... any game

annihilated

How's taquito this Evo?

not very murderyfacey from what I saw, but he still made it to top 8 so I guess pretty good still!

He takes a while to react to the answers?
