Is anyone making avatars for the big players? I would love to have a Team Daigo avatar.
We should all do EVO avatars! I don't really like EVO Iron Man though.

I mean, shit, we did the whole sunglasses thing for VxG

Where do I go if I want to buy for the HD streams for EVO?
I think the Twitch pages. I would wait for an official announcement though.

Should we Q up our avatars?

Forming up the Q army would be pretty awesome....


IRON SOLIDARITY MASKS FOR ALL?!

This feels like a cop out. Like come on, at least be a bit more creative.

the origin of the EMP and Ravioli came from a video Triforce posted. It was before Justin left for the West Coast and he showed up to the EMP house with some goods. It was a case of Chef Boyardee Ravioli and Capri Suns. Those guys got hyped about (Dragon God and Huggy Bear) and Triforce took the can away from him saying you got to wait or something like that. I think Triforce took down the video of it.

Yo man, when you in the hood, especially the boroughs, and you get some caprisun and chef boyardee, you dont mess with that. Triforce is just a greedy bastard who has the mentality of a 5 year old.

Where do I go if I want to buy for the HD streams for EVO?

I don't know what you mean by "buy" but you can subscribe on Friday if EVO is being streamed that day, $4.99.

Announcement after smash. It has to be Pokken fighters.

That would be fun, I'd be down for that but my image editing abilities are subpar so someone would have to help me out.

What endless battle bugs? Also, GGs earlier. What should I do against Adon's full screen dive kick?

Medium and Heavy Jaguar Tooth are safe on block as of Ultra's updates, so it's really difficult to counter-attack it. Since you're using Blanka i think his electricity would be a good way to counter considering how instant the attack can be.

The Endless Battle bugs has a lot of synchronization errors and can sometimes boot people out of them because the game thinks you're disconnected from PSN

Feel bad for anyone trying to make a hype announcement before Marvel finals unless it's Capcom themselves. We saw what happened to KI last year lol.

Did Ono say something about a Capcom versus Capcom game quite a while ago? I'm reading up on some stuff and can't seem to find it.
Maybe cause its all in my head and there are voices telling to BELIEVE.

Nitsuma just said that if there was a Capcom vs Capcom he would like to make it.

Don't get your hopes up for these announcements. I expect a Smash character announcement and a USF4 port/patch announcement at best.

Some notables in BlazBlue are...
N-Man (Rachel), Dora (Bang), Dogura (Azrael), Galileo (Litchi), Yoshiki (v-13), Grandia (Tager), KOG (Tager), Tiku (Tager), Tochigin (Azrael), Kinji (Taokaka), Hima (Terumi), Tsujikawa (Kokonoe), Matoi (Kokonoe), Jiyuna (Kokonoe), Bananaken (Kokonoe), Pops (Platinum), Lich (Relius).

Lich probably has the best shot among all Americans of making top 8, which is why I felt the need to mention him.
All Japanese top 8 is extremely likely.

Is the Mu who won CEO going to be there?

Darkstalkers aren't dead.
My heart is putting to much into these announcements

I'd add:

H2: DawnHikarii (yes really), Nano, AxistheBeast
H3: 2GB Combo
H5: ChosenNinja
H11: Eshi
I1: The Arm
I8: Crazyape
I9: Delta
I10: Danke
J10: Shtkn

Edit: Oh, if you're talking top 8/16 material then maybe I'd narrow those down to ChosenNinka and Delta.
 
Is it bad I just want to play this the entire time and ignore my pools?

Don't do that; I want to see you win the trip to Japan. As for GG, I'm not sure when the ballroom/booth area opens, but if you want to swing by early, I can probably get you some quality uninterrupted Xrd time. I'll PM you once I find out what our schedule will be.

Yeah my hopes are pretty much nonexistent. I've learned to stop caring for Capcom since they haven't announced anything NEW for the FGC in ages and no Ultra does not count.


Markman is the man!
 
Who is the chick with Markman?

Medium and Heavy Jaguar Tooth are safe on block as of Ultra's updates, so it's really difficult to counter-attack it. Since you're using Blanka i think his electricity would be a good way to counter considering how instant the attack can be.

Electricity takes 5 P inputs, so it's not the kind of thing you do on reaction. If you get hit by it between attacks, it's because I'm mashing P to catch an offensive mistake.

AE on PC has the same problem. I keep getting random "lost connection to player". Its worse than it was after that GFWL patch back in March
 
Ooh, nice. Is it going to be all pad play for the setups, like it was at AX? I think MarkMan could lend you guys a few PS4 sticks.

I would also ask if Aksys could kick in something for the AH3:LM side tournament, but this is super last minute and we already got some stuff from Examu, so.... :3

All pad as far as I know. As for stuff for a side tournament, I can poke around the office, but I think we're officially out of swag of any kind.

Also, if anyone knows when the BBCP pool streams are going on, could you PM me the schedule/links? I won't be in the office for Evo, but I'll get someone to pimp the links on our Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Nah. Shtkn himself would tell you he doesn't belong. Axis, Dawn, Danke are all relatively low tier too. Don't just throw up people because you know about them, throw up people you know are actually worth noting. I put up people I know are good, not who have twitter followers or stream monster followings. The only concession I'll make out of those is 2GB, but he's not quite there. Shouta mentioned Wuku, I forgot about him but I haven't seen him play lately.
