If Lapchi does this again, he really needs to get someone with a better sounding and more confident voice do the translated voice overs....who also speaks in the first person.

Daigo gonna tell Snake Eyez he'll let him be in his manga if he throws the match

Kazunoko a strong contender to take first with that game differential.

You know, I've been wanting to say this since yesterday. If you're translating for the players, just speak as them instead of for them. It just sounds better to me.

Kazunoko might win entire tournament this at this rate.
His only other match is against Luffy.

Q. Bomb.
Gotta disagree here pretty much 100% with the idea that it's less shameful as a counterpick. Snake thinks he's good enough to win things like EVO and that he can't learn anything from american players anymore, then he should have an answer to his bad matchups. In a set of first to 7, he has plenty of chance to at least try his counters to the bad matches like his Oni. If he's too stubborn to switch then that's on him. If he only wants to play Gief then he needs to solve the bad matchup. No matter how you cut it, this is one of the best american players going 0-7 to a character Xiao Hai isn't known for at all. That's 100% on Snake Eyez
To be fair, he beats like every other Sagat not named Bonchan.
Xiao Hai played the match perfect. Took no risks, whiff punished with buttons that Sagat players never even use (sweep, st.mp), anti aired literally every jump, and hardly ever threw a bad fireball.
"el fuerte needs a command grab"
Mike pls
Yeah, and it's not like xiohai hasn't studied snake eyez
it being his 5th string character or whatever doesn't make it more shameful.

I'm not looking to take anything away from Xiao Hai here. I firmly believe in Xiao Hai to be at least top 20 players in the world, he's a fantastic player.

Kazunoko just confirmed the Japanese don't collude.

there's almost not even a point when you've got to go through translator-san both ways
Kazunoko is notoriously Japan's biggest SF4 scumbag too, so it's fitting haha.

Kazunoko in great position to win the whole tournament if he beats Luffy. Daigo has to win one of his matches in a blowout or win both of them. All of Daigo's matches have been extremely close thus far.
He asked Kazunoko who he was rooting for in Daigo vs Snake Eyes
KidA Seven

Daigo played like ass vs Xiao hai so the tournament is wide open.
Rice-Eater

So the only tie breaker is game differential and head 2 head doesn't matter?
Isn't daigo 4-1 and kazunoko 3-2 tho?
theprodigy
Member
that's really how it should be in this format
although I thought Kazunoko had more losses?
yeah it goes win/loss then GD. Not sure what they'd do in the case of same GD, though that's extremely unlikely to ever happen

Kazunoko is 4-2

I have no idea how this tournament works I just watch people body people like ayyy lmao
KidA Seven

Kazunoko has more losses, but his match differential is still better than Daigo's. That means that 1 loss against either Snake Eyez or Luffy can cost Daigo the tournament despite being tied with Kazunoko (provided both go 5-2) and beating him in a set. Daigo not having 1 blowout win will cost him.
I don't think that's a fair assessment since it went to the last match and it was a mirror. But yeah, it's wide open.

His fireball game was really bad. He got ultra'd and jumped in by Xiao Hai about 10+ times. Really reminded me of his match vs Infiltration.

Well maybe PR Rog is actually prepared for this match up. That was a impressive first match at the very least.

Is it worth buying the stream right now?
I'm so against the idea, but I also hate the idea of not seeing it.

Broncos and Colts are playing and Daigo will be up again soon. So difficult to pay attention to both 
yea, if it were a shallow backdash like sims rog probably would have caught a body

You get access to the HD archives of the previous matches too if that matters.
And Lapchi says if he comes close to breaking even he'll throw another one of these tournaments.
we out man, we out. be pretty hype to meet someone from gaf cause azure only plays PM and sloth is way too far from me.
Yams, we play after master series ends, yes?

I forgot to add that isn't the Rose match up in favor of Yun? Kazunoko can pad his differential even more.
