Americans will make it to top 8. Brackets will make the japanese kill themselves.

I got you.

I have no idea who's attending I just like betting.

 

[Shouta]

Daigo needs to be confirmed before it turns into another Evo.

Confirm Daigo, gets bopped again by Choi and Champ, lol

[NEO0MJ]

Only if Shin Akuma 666 joins as well.

Spoiler

Really, I can't get over that troll. So ridiculous.

[Face it Tiger..]

as far as I'm concerned, Eduardo is the only one going to Top 8.

LOL! Goddamn, burning his turtle shell at Daigo losing.

Thanks for the update. We'll still rock it cause it's more fun that way

 

[pixelish]

okay it's a deal.
and just to be clear, when i say under 1.5 it means i think there will be less than 2 american players in top 8 (so either one or no american player).

 

[KidA Seven]

Infiltration and Xian are also going just so you know

 

[Beckx]

Infiltration and Xian are also going just so you know

The Tik-Tok man always meets a bad end.

 

[Horseress]

One american will make top 8, one korean, one Xian and five japaneses

And Daigo is totally going, he'll be already in the USA for the invitational this weekend, why not stay and win some money

 

[mbpm1]

No Japanese will make top 8

Spoiler

but what if

 

[vulva]

Infiltration and Xian are also going just so you know

Yeah, they're going to DUFF CITY cause Smug is gonna win it for America.


Tik still gonna lose the bet since only one american makes it

 

[BakedYams]

FR is turning out to be Evo with all of the JPs going.

Imagine what EVO will actually be like.

No Japanese will make top 8

Spoiler

but what if

lol, the only way that'll happen if the japanese team kill each other but i doubt that will happen early on since they might have seeding points so they'll be far apart from each other. the only threat i see to the japanese is PR Rog to be honest.

 

[KidA Seven]

I can see Smug causing some upsets because Dudley can deal damage with his mixups. If the crowd gets into it and Dudley is in your face, be scared.

 

[Tik-Tok]

okay it's a deal.

Yup.

Do North Americans count as Americans in general. Just for clarity. Not that I think someones coming out of Mexico to win it all.

 

[Lost Fragment]

I've definitely seen videos of it before

*shrug*

Maybe Ibuki's DP got some changes recently. Dashing is sure proof either way.

Pretty sure that's never worked unless she throws the kunai. It might work if up kicks whiffs completely, but if you're in blockstun from upkicks then I can barely even get a punish with a lvl 1 focus let alone a level 2.

 

[Busaiku]

OPs that just use random gameplay or still renders are way less hype than original animations.

 

[BakedYams]

Smug is gonna get read really hard. The competition is too fierce for a greenhorn like him. Give him a day or two in a hyperbolic time chamber and he'll be up to par, or just go to Japan for a year like Chris T. and become a monster.

 

[FourMyle]

yep

well i was thinking of just players from the us but i can include players from mexico and canada into the category (i mean, i highly doubt they would even make top 16).

 

[4r5]

This doesn't make any sense. The only way a DeadAngle would deny a RC is if the DeadAngle hit them. I assume it's somewhere in here? http://www.twitch.tv/ultrachentv/v/3882137

Oh, he's talking about DAing to prevent RC on RC-not-allowed moves.
it's @ 2h8m

This sentence should be in the OT

Chris T went to Japan for a year and he's still at the level he is?

Sucks for him.

 

[vulva]

I don't think he did. Chris King and Jayce did though

FGW | Stop using anime to describe fighting games.

 

[mbpm1]

Also I think Smug is well-put together at this point to cause some upsets still. Especially against the lesser Japanese players and in the 2 out of 3. DaigoMochi can probably pull together a gameplan and adapt though

 

[biosnake20]

We really are esports now.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

That's great news about ChrisG. Hopefully they send him to a lot of events.

Smug got to watch out for the wake up ultra. Still can't believe Xian hit him so many times at TFC with it.

 

[FourMyle]

lmao

Smug got to watch out for the wake up ultra. Still can't believe Xian hit him so many times at TFC with it.

that's what happens when you mash on buttons 24/7 and your opponent picks up on that

 

[BakedYams]

I don't think he did. Chris King and Jayce did though

Chris King = Chris Tartarian

 

[Horseress]

Chris King = Chris Tartarian

Nope

Chris King is a Norcal Vega player

 

[CurlyW]

Chris King = Chris Tartarian

And FluxxWaves = Flux

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Chris King = Chris Tartarian

They're different players

Nope

Chris King is a Norcal Vega player

No, Chris King is fron San Diego. You're thinking of El cubano loco

 

[Horseress]

No, Chris King is fron San Diego. You're thinking of El cubano loco

Actually I forgot he was from San Diego, but yeah, different people, all three of them

 

[Professor Beef]

You guys can't even tell me and Panda apart, of course you're going to get players confused!

 

[El Sloth]

Does anyone here know where I can find a retail stick with the buttons and stick positions switched? Asking for a friend. Best I found was this Qanba stick: http://www.qanbashop.com/EN/EUR/product/Qanba-Q2-Pro-Standard-37.html but I can't find it on sale and some of the reviews about it aren't all that encouraging.

He'd prefer not having to learn to play cross-handed like S-Kill lol

 

[MiniBossBattle]

Professor Panda sounds better than A Pretty Beef.

Nyko was gonna make an ambidextrous stick, but I think they canned it.

Man, that thing is tiny. And kind of ugly. Still, a shame.

Looking like we're just gonna have to custom order one from someone who mods sticks.
