supposed to be on saltymayhem at 1PM (per this tweet), but it is running late for some reason.

 

[Rice-Eater]

lmao

I think they're a great duo and should commentate together more. But they're combined bias commentary for Daigo made watching GF even better lol.

I swear, Daigo is like two different people. The guy who does a random, clutch ume flash kick to beat Kazunoko and doesn't even crack a smile...and then, THIS guy:

News flash: Daigo loves Beer.

 

[Ninjimbo]

I thought he quit drinking. Guess a few first place finishes changed his feelings on the matter.

 

[Syntsui]

Daigo always wins tournaments when I'm not watching, I might as well never watch a tournament again for the greater good.

 

[Lulubop]

The crowd is lit for IJ2

 

[Demicore]

useful info

Thanks a lot for that!

Interesting results for Smash 4@Shine 17.

Zero is back on top, but cool to see Tweek get second, and MKLeo, Ally, and Nairo coming out with the secondaries. MKLeo went Bayonetta and Toon Link (the Toon Link looked pretty good but he missed a sweetspot usmash to take it a game against Tweek), and Ally/Nairo both brought out the Diddys against Salem's Bayonetta.

Strangest arm wrestling I've ever seen.

 

[HardRojo]

Holy shit that was a great Top 8 to commentate. Brolynho ended up taking the Lima Salty 4 tournament against Moises. I'm tired now and I need to eat!

Good stuff, man. I watched bits here and there but caught all of top 4. Shout outs to you and everyone on the staff.

Thanks man! It's really nice to have people from abroad coming over, even if they end up taking the tournament.

So Absolute Battle sounds like a blow up this year.

Hard to see it coming back next year

How so? I know a lot of people didn't show due to Hurricane Harvey.

EDIT: Ah, found a kappa post summarizing it.

Blazblue players have to turbo story mode the day of because characters weren't unlocked. https://twitter.com/MILK_KAICHOU/status/901507520962932737
Guilty Gear gets no stream, put in the side room, no projector, no sound. Top 8 is 2/3 when it was supposde to be 3/5 https://twitter.com/bountyxhunted/status/901881540942196737
no setups because of lack of extension cords
stream constantly being fucked
Pools being changed the day of
Pools not being posted until the day before
Literally 0 stream time for guilty gear. People told to commentate just get shafted
Names are swapped and scores arent being updated on saltymayhem
Schedule lists streams but not whats on what stream
No setups for anything other than IJ and Sf5

I was at Absolute Battle this year. For those who have never been to an FGC event, I implore you to go. You will be thoroughly surprised by how down to earth the pro's are.

I was able to chat with Ultra David for a while as well. Great representation and advocate for the FGC.
