Fighting Games Weekly | August 27 - September 2

My picks for Socal 8 (Justin is apparently banned cuz he is EC):

Combofiend
Fanatiq
Infrit
Knives
KillerKai
Viscant
Clockwork
Richard Nguyen

Apparently San Diego counts as Socal.

Yeah...it's basically 3 against 8 lol....with those 3 Norcal players the players you mentioned in another post.
 
All of the Norcal picks are solid too except for cj over wingzero, Mine, Chrisis and HiIamnasty.

A lot of those Norcal players are really underrated and have at one point beat up a bunch of killers.
 
Norcal got it free. So free they even put CJ on the team. All the picks are fine.


Combofiend (free to Doom)
Fanatiq (free to JayZ)
Infrit (free to CJShowstopper's ecigs)
Knives (Free to Meat and Chicken)
KillerKai (Free to awkward moments)
Viscant (Free to crack)
Clockwork (I love clockwork..but yeah he has been busy as with that sony fighting game so free to actually having a job)
Richard Nguyen (Chokes too often..could be on point though)
 
Would be pretty hilarious if it ends up being 1-7 in the first round and FChamp still ends up taking it all the way.

GC is really solid especially at NCKO against X Ray, that was a good one too.

KBeast on his good day can beat anyone in the world... but on his bad day he can lose to CJ. He is very similar to MarlinPie in that he's a hot/cold type player. Good to have in a team tournament where he has the potential to take out a killer, making it easier for the rest. HonzoGonzo has a godly Task and Doom + Ammy tech. In fact he is very underrated in terms of coming up with his tech, he was using Task unblockables like week 1 of Vanilla Marvel.

Champ strikes me much more of a "my team is shit, I'm going to make it clear I'm not even trying" kind of guy.

If he wins anyway yes that would be quite the laugh.
 
I wish you guys watched more UCI stuff cause you'd know there are two players there that constantly bop Richard...... one of them being and EVO top 8 finalist.... and the other being a TRB champion....
 
Yeah...I mean wtf were they thinking with some of the NorCal picks?

Aside from the obvious 3 (Padtrick, DrewGrimey, Champ), only other good pick IMO was X-Ray. Should've definitely picked Mine at least....

The NorCal players are on the same level as the SoCal players. The only player on either team, potential team in SoCal's place, that is clearly a cut above everyone else is F.Champ. Even CJ is a good player, he just always plays against some of the best in the world so he looks bad.

TRB on Thursdays is like when they moved Smackdown to Fridays. Hype deflater.
 
Hrm, Fchamp was supposed to show up at Gamecluck's weeklies because he's up here in Seattle for PAX, I don't know if he's there yet though.

Yeah, he's gonna be doing some Ultimate and SF4 tonight with Rattana, Cam and some other folks for people interested. Stream is here:

I usually do VF5 but no one for it tonight. =(
 
I was going to call it but didn't want to say anything. Had a premonition he was going to leave again. He seems to do more for EMP than EMP does for him which is what I'm getting.


I dont think its an EMP thing. PLS was in like 7 teams last year.
 
If it gets archived we'll put up some snippets. It looks like it's ending.

edit: Might be prolonged now. Looks like Tatsu is coming on, who won the SF25 1st place for SFxT in NYC.
 
Capcom have listened to the complaints and will be addressing them all in super sfxt a full price disc based update due in 2013.

Was that their rumor? I don't think thats going to fly with the public seeing as how Super SFxT was already on the disc, unless its also downloadable.

Other rumour was that sfxt was just a tool to locate every Ryu player around the world so they can be locked out of capcom's real next fighting game.
