Looks like Chris T won a tournament in the wrong week. Or maybe they did see it and saw Chris's accent impressions and were like "nope".

I mean

2nd Winterbrawl
13th Final Round
5th NorCal Regionals
1st TX Showdown

that's pretty impressive and he is travelling. I'm kind of doubting his ability to consistently keep that up but with an actual backing his chances are much better and it's probably a cheaper risk for Echo Fox to take. If he does improve from here he'll be actually really desirable but they got him early, that's the kind of thing you want to do with sponsorships.

After you win turn around and say "Tell 'em about my Necalli"

He's won several CtB's as well. He's very very solid.

I didn't mean to discredit Julio, I just believe Chris is a little better. At the moment anyways. But I don't think he's been traveling as much so props to Julio for putting in the work and getting this sponsorship instead.

I mean, from where I'm sitting Julio is the better pick out of the Ken players right now. If Chris T gets out there more he could easily compete though, you just can't say since he hasn't been showing up as consistently.

That gen of players have this year to start putting up numbers and they have better make the most of it like Julio has. Prime age and potential to get picked up with the year of esports going on.

I think so too, but chris had some tough brackets at ncr and fr.

Follow the thread for updates. I'll be updating the tournament there.

It should be on Godsgarden twitch channel but it may change streams last minute.

bruh

 

[pixelish]

i do agree that chris t is slightly better than julio in terms of skill but julio has way more personality than chris t based on what i've seen on the latest daily dot's best of 3 livestream and one of the episodes of last year's capcom pro talk. dude's hilarious.

Daigo's becoming more like Valle everyday... more of community figurehead than an actual competitor.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Congrats to Julio on the sponsorship! Always happy to see more players get sponsored.

bruh

bruh

 

[Kadey]

Art does need to cut out on questionable things on his stream. You can't expect to be sponsored and do all those on your stream. Can't have it both ways. Although I do enjoy a lot of the after hours stuff.

facial expressions were a mistake

daigo popping off again lol

 

[mbpm1]

Daigo popping off? :O

 

[CO_Andy]

Daygo's marketing brand tournament sounds very interesting.

Dayum even the art in Daygo's manga looks better than SFV's art.

 

[Kadey]

Ewww. KOF looks very choppy. Like a high res PS2 game.

 

[enzo_gt]

Think I might do this too, since it seems like they've quietly went back on their word on challenges.

 

[KidA Seven]

I don't see it that way. Its just that the japanese sf scene as a whole has expressed needing an injection of young players into the scene. Momochi is doing his shinobism project for the same purpose.

 

[skLaFarebear]

I don't think they've went back on their word. Seems more like just one of many features they probably wanted for the game but haven't implemented yet. At least, I hope they haven't gone back on their word. SFV having dailies would be sick.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

I'm pretty sure Daigo is going to retire to become an accountant.

 

[Kadey]

I'm going to buy me one of those chairs. Red and White looks nice.

Bah GAWD, what a Slobbeknocker!!

Whoa, #1 on the online leaderboards for SFV makes it to the Capcom Cup? Just heard it on KSB's stream.

Art is in there.

 

[vulva]

It came out today to a lot of theatres, go se Green Room people

 

[Sayad]

Art is in there.

I doubt Art will be able to keep that position once people really start going after it.

 

[Line_HTX]

Whoa, #1 on the online leaderboards for SFV makes it to the Capcom Cup? Just heard it on KSB's stream.

What, really? So if you just grind the whole day like Art does, then you're in?

 

[lucebuce12]

What, really? So if you just grind the whole day like Art does, then you're in?

Yep. Though I imagine that will become more difficult as the day comes nearer and people start to realize they can get an invite this way and work harder.

They really changed up the system for entry to capcom cup, you should read through it on their website.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

What, really? So if you just grind the whole day like Art does, then you're in?

it'll be easier to get in based on the region you're from

 

[KidA Seven]

Whoa, #1 on the online leaderboards for SFV makes it to the Capcom Cup? Just heard it on KSB's stream.

Not true. Here's the breakdown:

32 spots


12 from premier + evo
8 from global leaderboard (premier points and rank points)
8 from regional leaderboard (rank points and 2 per region)
4 from regional finals*

*revional finals are made up of 12 offline ranking winners, 2 online ranking winners, and 2 from last chance qualifier

 

[katsubento]

So if World Combo made it to Capcom Cup, what happens when he quits the whole game out when he loses?

I am so entering for more Koihime

 

[galvenize]

How does koihime play? Execution wise?

 

[shaowebb]

How does koihime play? Execution wise?

Its very low on execution and very high on footsies. There are some combos but I wouldn't even say it has combos as long as KOF. No air dashes either even though its anime. Very simple inputs. Not certain I ran into anything other than standard SF inputs. Though they had some Down, Down moves as well which are about as easy as it gets. Main rhythm is fishing for those special crumple states so you can gain new move properties and combo links. General rule is either bait folks into them or figure out what moves combo into them the easiest and try to get them involved in all your combo attempts.

Also it has assist moves done via quarter circle motions+D. Pretty much you got 3 attacks, then D button stuff and two spare buttons for macro. There are wallbounces and launcher attacks to have fun with as well but dont expect marvel air stuff or whatever.

Here are the basics

You would think they would have put more thought into preventing fraudulent behaviour like ragequitting in the first place if their plan was to give online warriors a shot to get into Capcom Cup from the start.

Indeed it is.
