gah, now i'm in the mood to watch king arthur and the knights of justice.

Yo if Marv finished that Super Jump confirm...

 

[A Pretty Panda]

I didn't know Chris could move like that.

 

[Lulubop]

That's a lot of viewers.

 

[kirblar]

So does anyone outside of CA actually think that PSAS is a good idea for EVO?

BUM SIGHTING

 

[A Pretty Panda]

I think this is the second tournament Bum has entered.

 

[scytheavatar]

When I see Strange played on streams I always get the urge to try him out again but I can't do anything with him beyond orb mixups and basic meter burning combos. Is there anything more to playing him? I know not to play him on point, and I don't see him that useful when X Factored....

Best way to see him really is that he's a poor man's Taskmaster with more tricks, an assist that works very well with characters that have strong overheads but a lot more holes in his gameplan. Like Taskmaster you should think less about how to open people him with him, you should be thinking more about how to shut down your opponent's approach and have him dash head first into an Impact Palm/Mystic Sword/Eye. And many people just end up doing that against Strange players because they suck and don't understand him. But strictly speaking if you have no use from his assists there's not much reason why you should be using him.

vs LI Joe? Let's fucking go

Bum has mad dickriders... wait what?

 

[scytheavatar]

Lots of people seem to think that PSAS is a lock for EVO because EVO's corrupt and Sony can buy their way to the lineup. But I am yet to find anyone who actually thinks PSAS has a chance of succeeding not just at EVO but in any competitive environment.

 

[TheChits]

WHAT A DROP

 

[Professor Beef]

If Bum realized he had a Level 3 available during that Happy B-Day, the game would've been over.

 

[MrDaravon]

That was so fucking close to a godlike comeback with Chris :/

 

[Parallax Scroll]

more like freeum

 

[toddhunter]

Watch the tv excuses flow as soon as he gets blown up

 

[MrDaravon]

Bum looked super free there, but to be fair Joe was looking pretty sharp.

 

[Busaiku]

Bum the top UMVC3 player.

 

[EarlyEarly]

LMFAO. Excuses already. Bum is a fraud.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I think this is the second tournament Bum has entered.

And this is why Bum never enters tournaments.

Butt Ugly Martian

Chris G announces he is also entering his first tournament.

 

[El Sloth]

That was real free for Joe.

"Oh shit Bum entered a tournament"

I'm fucking weak. :lol

 

[Dahbomb]

Top 5 best player in the world Bum.

Flux proving once again he's a one character player.

 

[Karsticles]

Bum was just nervous. Anyone who has watched him play knows he's much better than that. Hopefully he keeps competing, because he is good at the game.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Chris G might be the worst salesman ever.

 

[sleepykyo]

Bum is Floe.

Speaking is not ChrisG's strong suit.

Zero is a fair and balanced character.

Flux only lost when he lost Zero in the first match.

Moonz just played scared. All Zero players love to go H.A.M and the best way to counter that shit is to go H.A.M yourself.

In the first match Flux Vergil (died on incoming mix up) and Dante (opened up like 4 times) couldn't block shit. Trust me when I say we Zero players can't block for shit.

I already know this. There is a major difference between the blocking skills of Moonz and of Flux. Flux couldn't block a simple Taskmaster high low.

It's very hard to go ham against Zero because of his sword normals protecting him all over the place. You need Vergil normals to go ham against him.

I'm with you.

Except for a decent Chinese joint or Crown Fried when drunk. But obviously the drink helps to amplify the taste.

Yea but Moonz didn't even attempt to. He backed off from the start of the round giving Flux all the time in the world to set his shit up. He should of just took the Pr Balrog strategy and just go in head first with Nova. If you get the hit then you win, if Nova dies then you can back out and re-think with Task/Ammy. He just sacrificed Nova all three rounds, and played Task/Ammy vs ZmC.

Also Jrosa's Strider looks like booty butt cheeks.

Pft KFC is better (im not serious)

 

[Karsticles]

Popeye's is mediocre. KFC is better.

And someone needs to tell Chris Matrix that Storm is mid tier at best.

You must have gone to the worst Popeyes.

No TK motions already has me interested.

Damn. Was rooting for Matrix there, not that the result is surprising.

 

[Karsticles]

It's a fast food place, shit is the same everywhere. It's not bad, it's just mediocre, though. The biscuits are fantastic, the chicken is decent, I like the tea, and the gravy for the mashed potatoes is decent. I wasn't fond of anything else there.

 

[Dahbomb]

Less than 2 weeks until DmC.

AAAAWWWW YYYYYEEEEAAAA

In Vergil we trust...

to save the game from mediocrity.

Is it time for the yearly Popeye's vs KFC off-topic thread?

But Matrix did alright in the first match and then it all went down hill.

 

[Lost Fragment]

8k on Spooky's stream? Damn. When's the last time Big Two had that many viewers?
