If they kickstart Daemon Bride, I would chip in for a digital download.

 

[smurfx]

champ is going to destroy bee. although maybe champ keeps it close on purpose to give confidence to other potential MM victims.

 

[mbpm1]

Gets like 2.5 times the life bars Santarou gets every match lmao.

SS has the lead
SS sits down
Sako backdashes twice and uses healing
Sako has the lead

Sako made me actually want to use Elena for the first time since Ultra tho

probably.


what's your problem with money matches?

 

[Professor Beef]

Am I the only one who thinks money matches are stupid?

Only if you think betting in general is stupid.

 

[EarlyEarly]

I'm rocking with Bee on this one. I need him to put on a show

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Sako's Elena

Fuck.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Talk the talk then better be prepared to walk the walk....
Put your money where your mouth is...

It's a good way to settle an argument of of two people arguing over who's better.

 

[CountBlack]

rolento so dumb



like I said, Sako's Elena is just :blessed:

I can't do a cr.lp x lynx tail to save my life

 

[Retro_]

probably.

How really dumb personal bets between individual players become premiere exhibition events in our community

Like no one thinks Bee or whoever is in Fchamp's league and it doesn't sound like many people would interested in a long set between the two otherwise

but because he scraped together like 500-1000 dollars to put up against him, it's now an event that everyone is talking about

Like if what Enzo said is the case:

I guess it's simply a top player thing, you need to put the bread up to even get a chance to play them.

Then that's just dumb as hell to me.

Only if you think betting in general is stupid.

I think alot of stuff people do with their money is stupid.

But it's their own business. I just wish they'd keep it that way instead of making a spectator's event out of it all.

It just seems like such a negative thing to me. I don't know how else to put it.

Your opinion is dumb. Hype rules everything

 

[petghost]

Hey guys, just wanted to show off some of GAFer Pehesse's work on her indie VN fighting game mashup and I thought you might like how cool it's gotten lately!

I really love the way it looks, really good art style!

i like the style but man that seems like a lotta superfluous animation for a fg. like the recovery from the dash for instance.

 

[call_kotaku]

Maybe it's the same trajectory as MvC2, where the strata of players who get top 8/16s at tournaments give up on trying to surpass the "gods" or win a major, and spectators lose interest because the results and matches become predictable, so everyone gravitates towards high stakes money matches.

Rejoice, because it means Marvel is on life support!

The DOTA 2 change is definitely controversial though. I feel like the mechanic will remain but it will get toned down a bit. The EXP comeback is perfectly fine, the gold comeback is a bit too much.

The whole point of the mechanic is to make use of the full scope of the game's mechanics, heroes and items as well as being a way to preven premature GGs call. Some items and heroes got no use in the previous patch because snowball game play was so strong.


In any case this is like no where near comparable to some of the comebacks in fighting games.

It's just interesting to hear a new group of people discuss the principle of comeback mechanics, and seeing the same sort of complaints pop up. Pro player salt is always delicious, however.

Good to know.

That's about the response I expected really

 

[NEO0MJ]

rolento so dumb

I need to learn how to play like that.

 

[Shingin]

Just a reminder that Vector Strike starts at 5pm pst today on http://www.twitch.tv/iebattlegrounds

 

[Dahbomb]

Am I the only one who thinks money matches are stupid?

Probably.

Although I do think this particular MM is stupid.

Also from the sound of things you don't care about MMs per se just the event culture behind them.

 

[EarlyEarly]

lol this guy lost to a Ken overhead in Marvel 2. Shout outs to footsies

Yooo VDO Colossus

 

[Coffeeling]

Does anyone have examples to any quality commentary by Yipes? Because thus far I've heard "Oh, shit" twenty times and little else.

 

[isamu]

Just a reminder that Vector Strike starts at 5pm pst today on http://www.twitch.tv/iebattlegrounds

what will they be playing?

 

[Osu 16 Bit]

F Champ must have a million people that want to play him at every tournament and his time is valuable. It makes sense that you'd have to put up some money to play him.

 

[Shouta]

Champ sits down to play casuals but he's the same as Tokido, he'll prioritize cash when it's there. For reference. Both of those players sat down and played casuals at NWM for quite awhile because folks just wanted to play.

 

[BakedYams]

Does anyone have examples to any quality commentary by Yipes? Because thus far I've heard "Oh, shit" twenty times and little else.

Really? He usually explains tactics pretty well, you just have to find the right matches. I know he explained one of Magneto's option selects with his plink dash, an freaking automatic grab, so retarded.

 

[Osu 16 Bit]

Casuals are one thing, an exhibition is another. Presumably Bee wants to make a statement, so it's only fair for Champ to require money for that.

 

[Retro_]

Hmm.

Well at least I'll admit there's a lot I haven't considered when it comes to MM's

 

[EarlyEarly]

You're not going to find any commentary on this stream. It's just casual shit

 

[Zissou]

Who does Bee use again? Nova/Frank/Dante?

Bee's not still rocking spencer/frank/dante?

 

[CountBlack]

Ryan Hart using Evil Ryu too

DEEJAY TOP TIER ver.2015! :BLESSED:

 

[CPS2]

I generally like money matches, unless they're all anyone cares about. Like if people sandbag during a tournament then use the mm to prop themselves up as the final boss afterwards even if they lost (on purpose or whatever) then it can come across as extremely disrespectful.

 

[kirblar]

DEEJAY TOP TIER ver.2015! :BLESSED:

I suspect the rebalance will be a relatively light touch for most characters. Most are in a really good spot right now, and it's really more an issue of fixing the Dee Jays while trimming a little of the BS off where it needs to be trimmed. (Oh hi there Rush Punch)

 

[Professor Beef]

Bee's not still rocking spencer/frank/dante?

I have no idea, that's why I asked.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

What Nemo does with Rolento is amazing.

 

[enzo_gt]

Capcom has plans for USF4 rebalance next year? Warning: EH article. Can someone verify their translation?

If true though,

 

[Zissou]

I have no idea, that's why I asked.

Ahh- unless he's switched, he's prob still playing Spencer point then.

 

[oneida]

Capcom has plans for USF4 rebalance next year?

come on

 

[Zissou]

Capcom has plans for USF4 rebalance next year? Warning: EH article. Can someone verify their translation?

If true though,

The headline of "Capcom is gonna rebalance next year" is not supported anywhere in the interview text. All they confirm is that they're not going to rebalance this year.

 

[Professor Beef]

Still-popular game continues to get support.

oh noooo

 

[RockTurtle]

is it still popular though?

Spoiler

yes. probably

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

This Potemkin combo is so FAB.

I want to main him now.

 

[QisTopTier]

I find it funny ArcSys is going to be keeping 3 games updated and rolling out new versions/sequels, and capcom is stuck only doing SF4

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I find it funny ArcSys is going to be keeping 3 games updated and rolling out new versions/sequels, and capcom is stuck only doing SF4

And yet, SFIV and Marvel are most likely more popular than all of those games combined.

As much as I despise ASW's catalog, I think that's still pretty impressive.

This... is partially why I'm semi-jumping ship (still gonna play marvel though). ALL ABOARD THE XRD TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN

Why did you leave out SFxT!

 

[Imm0rt4l]

If true though,

They're gonna do their damndest to keep this game alive till SF5 drops.

 

[Anth0ny]

Makes sense, too.

Spoiler

I can only dream that Nintendo does the same with Smash 4 until Smash 5 launches in 2020.
