Chris G doesn't practice with Hak. I don't even think he practices, he just goes to 4 weeklies bro. FOUR WEEKLIES.

andre has dropped the most combo out of all the known players. But you know what? He is a consistent top 8 placer in majors.
His overall level of play is solid. He makes retarded choices once in awhile but who doesn't (thats not the S Tier players).

Cj is underrated, Chris G is overrated. Who wants a one month avatar bet on a CJ Champ double? Winners pick.

Four weeklies is ridiculous. I'm too lazy to go to one.
Yea he's top 8 because he helps makes the bracket. Consistent my ass... consistent at crying until he gets floated. Oh shit was I not suppose to say that? Andre is mid tier at best. I'll take all 16 of the NorCal/SoCal after shock team over Andre. And then I'll take the 10 guys that didn't even make the NorCal/SoCal team over Andre.
Also, will Combofiend be there?
I want to use this during the week-end.
Lezz geeeeeeeeeeeew.

I think this is the first tourney after EVO I'll be able to watch. Missed you guys!

Even if you get floated, you still have to play people.
Also the people chosen for aftershock are solid players as well (minus CJ). So getting beaten by them doesn't say much.
It'll be spooky

WesternHeretic's WC bias for every match ever is so blatant at this point I'm not sure why you guys bother.

It is only because he has to play the top people. If CJ was from the east coast people would rate him up as high as Yipes and Chris G are supposed to be.

It finally dawned on me once he said that CJ was "well-known."
That is horse shit. I have seen cj play against a multitude of players of various skill types. He has lost to pretty much everyone. People would talk smack about cj in the ec same way they talk smack about Andre.
Alright that's it... avatar bet 2 months. Loser has to wear the avatar of the winning player declaring him da best. If I lose I would wear cj avatar and never talk smack about him, even in sarcasm. Any takers?

Andre isn't that bad of a player, he did eliminate RayRay at Summer Jam. I bet that if he met the 16 aftershock players in a major outside of Cali he'll beat at least half of them. He'll probably beat guys like KBeast, GC Yoshi and Honzo Gonzo who are prone to choking in majors, won't be surprise to see him beat Clockw0rk or even Combofiend too considering that they are obviously not taking this game very seriously. But yeah he does well in majors mostly because he goes to a lot of majors and doesn't lose his composure when he drops his combos, while others will get bodied after dropping combos. I don't get a feeling that translate well to money matches, which is a different level of pressure.
If he was from east coast people would respect him more. The fact that he's a midwest player constantly trying to break into the NY clique while talking smack about fellow midwest players is a big source of why everyone hates him.

Got all my shit set up, speedtest.net tells me I have 6-7Mbps upload, yet the connection to Twitch is ass.
Uggh, I do love me some Season's Beatings. Up there with Final Round as my most looked-forward-to non-EVO major.
Champ over ChrisG! Let's say.. 15-8. Set will start out close, Champ will get some consecutive wins middle-set, ChrisG will lose his focus and finish weakly.
Best of luck to you 645!

I just hope some Marvel unknowns make a big splash at this event.

Pre-regs for several other games are up now it seems, here are the numbers so far
UMVC3 120
SSF4AE 141
MK9 26
P4A 72
SCV 17
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgvtE16gzf2ZdEpNVzNXTUtYUnZ0Y0FJckdzZ2g0UGc#gid=5
Still no sign of a few others like TTT2 or KOFXIII. This doesn't count last second sign ups so all these games should receive a decent boost. P4A may get over 100, I doubt SF4 or Marvel will reach 200 though. Which is kind of disappointing because SF4 had close to 300 the year before. But still, it should be a great turn out and tournament overall.

Meh, I'll leave the stream up anyway.

Have you tried picking different Twitch servers? I know you probably have, but hey.
Last second sign ups are always the great boost. I would estimate at least a 30% addition to all currently known numbers for all games.

Man if both JWong and Flocker don't show that really skews pool 1.
Who do you have on your pool? Still rocking dat Task/Felicia/Hawkeye team?

FChamp, Flux, KBeast, Toomuchdamage (who I play all the time), some guy from WV I know and am rooming with... I'm trying to get my pool assignment changed. I don't mind playing killers early but flying halfway across the country to play people you meet up with all the time is stupid.
Team's the same, though I'm using Hawkeye's vertical assist against Zero players now.

According to Chris G last night he doesn't even know when he is playing Champ or what he is playing for casting doubt on the whole thing (see end of big two)
This is what I was thinking.
If they don't do that exhibition and the USA vs World is a dud ... then that might force their hand to do a EC vs WC set. Justin Wong not being there actually makes it easier to pick.

Why can't Justin go? We've known the date for SB for months now.

Justin and Floe are moving this weekend, and it's not that he can't go it's that he rather settle into his new place then go to SB.

I never understand when I see tweets from players that are like "So I guess I am gonna go to ____________ tournament!" when it is like a day or two before. Do top players just not even bother planning ever?
