The qualifier was crazy, lots of madness and lots of luck. All unique characters, turned out pretty well.

Both Leagues can be purchased as a single package for 4500 yen. Of course purchasing options are very limited if you're not in Japan.

Honestly there's so many to watch and they're so long, I just end up skipping to when Mimora or Tominaga play.

I dunno. I know at least one video got taken offline due to a namco bandai claim.

UK news:
The UK Capcom Cup qualifier will be taking place at Play Expo, Manchester, on the last weekend of October. This is particularly interesting because Play Expo has normally been associated with the Mancunian/Northern/Not London scene, so I've got no clue what the London turnout is going to be.

That's totally me as well. I'm actually still searching for a character but some guys look good in Chrono Phantasm
I would argue that west coast Canada and Last Vegas are very different regions.
They have only 8 slots to hand out around the world. NA/Canada are going to be lumped together because of it.
I suspect we'll see 16 if they do this again.
The way it's looking with the current qualifiers, every winner will probably be from South East Asia. The only exception is Chris G. Having Canada Cup as a qualifier won't remedy this situation. I'm all for having high level play but it would be interesting to see competitors from all over the world. It was entertaining to see Breno Fighters win the brazil qualifier last year.

yea pretty much. Five of the slots are in east asia,

I never knew about this. New FG subgenre: "Divekicklikes"
I count two slots in NA, one in UK, one in Brazil, one in Australia and 3 in East Asia.
It's one in Japan and from the Asia qualifiers 2 people go for a grand total of 8 players for Capcom Cup. Unless I am mistaken this is how it's set up.
How will they do that? Round robin between the 3 of them? That would be hype as fuck, so I hope they do that
He's still DaiGOAT to me.

There will be 6 participants (2 from each qualifier). I don't know if it'll be a normal tournament with byes involved or not. I guess we'll see.

All three pre-qualifiers will be sending two players, so who knows. Maybe they'll invite two more to round it out.
Edit: Beaten!
They will manage a way to put Daigo and Infiltration at it. I bet they'll be everywhere playing on those qualifiers

If I were a sponsored Japanese player without a spot I would be eyeballing the UK qualifier. Poor Ryan Hart.
That should be fun

Can someone explain to me the story behind UFCGYM always idle on SF3 and why Max keeps running into him?
I can't believe it, an actual major in NYC, near where I live too!

if ryan hart doesn't win then he'll turn to EMP RYAN HAART
NYC property values make stuff like this so hard to accomplish, props to them for managing to make it happen.

I was actually thinking the same thing. Besides, it's on the same weekend as Shadowloo Showdown. Guys like Tokido, Mago, Gamerbee as well as several other Japanese players are already going there. It'd be wise for Daigo, Justin, or PR Rog, or any other top SF4 player to head to the UK instead which may not please some Europeans as you mentioned.
It hit me for the first today that Dark Souls pvp is the true successor to Bushido Blade.
Huge play space with free-roaming. Check.
Organic areas. Check.
Weapon type determines fighting style. Check.
Has some really lame crap. Check.
(What is Tranquil Walk of Peace if not the new equivalent of stabbing someone in the foot with the rapier?)
Would be cool to have a tournament viable version of Dark Souls pvp. Not the arena from the DLC, but a way to have easily organized matches out in the world, like random pvp is today. I think it would be hype as fuck to watch.

You do yourself a grave disservice. Tozais bring out some unknown but otherwise extremely skilled 3S players and you get a lot of variety in matchups, unlike a lot of other tournaments this is all for fun (and soda) and it's reflected in the SA choices and team makeup. Watching Pierrot play Remy is a real treat, for example.
For what it's worth the SA3 Twelve mirror starts at 28:50 in the aforementioned video and it's hilarious.

This is GLORIOUS.
Yeah, me and a couple TX guys were thinking about making the trek. Hopefully it has a decent turnout.
Might be old but i think it sounds cool

You totally should, Flushing has some of the best Asian foods ever.

yea, I was confused about the 2 from each qualifier in east asia. It's still a bunch of tries for sponsored asian players.
I would feel bad for hart as well if the top japanese players went to the uk one lol. Didn't louffy win a tournament against him pretty recently? I want louffy to go
oh yea, capcomfighters put up the tgs ae grand finals. Check out the hypeness http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKx5FUFr6nE

Last time I saw this, you can fire a gun when your meter reaches max. Video might still be out there.
Yeah i played that build, if you hold the Sweep button for 2 seconds it shoots. (You can avoid the gunshot by not pressing anything)
