Really?! CEO stream was unwatchable due to technical stuff. Even if generally there was no drop in viewers compared to last year, I'd imagine CEO will still get a huge drop because that!

Was CEO the one where the stream kept dropping in the middle of matches and for extended periods of time? If so, that certainly can't have done anything positive for their viewer count.

CEO peaked at 52k, even with all the issues for like half of the damn sets lol.
I don't know if that includes restreams and shit, which are all the rage these days.
Edit: I think it does

Yeah, Red Bull is their own worst enemy in that area. They're promoting so many individual events that it's super easy to lose track of which event is what. And I think it doesn't help that they're running a 6-hour round robin stream. I think it's not as exciting as a double elimination tournament, IMO. The double elimination format is likely a more exciting viewing experience since players only have two lives and then they're out. Plus the variety of players is greater.

Red Bull is experimenting with many different ways of holding events. I also feel they have these events to spread their purse around and make a modest profit rather than just basing everything on one event and making it hold all the risk.

SFV was the 9th most watched game or esport on Twitch back in April 2017 (same with May). It was also the only fighting game in that top 10.

It's on a weird/unknown channel too
I wouldn't have known about it if discord hadn't told me

Welcome to the amazing world of -2 where everything you press gets beat.
Yes the move is -2 but if you're playing online, it is +1 so don't even fucking bother. Offline, you have to practice your timings to get consistent with it.

Trust me I'm going to bother. It must be punished.

Better to practice the timing and try it than let them get away with it for free, offline or online.

So at this rate, Abigail is probably post-EVO right?

Abigail's model at character select should be so tall that his head is off the screen. Then when you pick him the animation is him bending down to get his face into frame.

Keep the first part, not the second.
Just have his bare chest visible on the character select screen.

Speaking of under promoted events, Colombian CPT event going on now:

Hah. That would be a pretty nice touch.
At this rate, people will be expecting Abigail to fill up the screen like Apocalypse from X-Men vs SF.
SSFV wouldn't be a bad idea.

I want him to be so tall that an AA jab actually makes visual sense.

I think the only two universal changes I want are:
1) Oki game to be mostly eliminated outside of sweeps.
2) Jumping in to be bad outside of anti-fireball situations.
That would make it a great game. Outside of that, it would need another neutral mechanic to make things more interesting than just poke wars vs. dash in, and then it would be an amazing game.

The OP should be updated to reflect that I am now a crazy diamond.
Speaking of which, now that Bandai Namco & Capcom have that agreement, how about some JoJo ranks in SFV?

First time I've heard of this.
Vesper Arcade video incoming.

When I played this morning I matched with a Guile that beat me (and didn't take the runback) and sent me a message afterward that said "You and all zangiefs should fuck off".
Does this happen to people often? This is the first time I've gotten anything other than a "GG".
Seriously, why is he mad after he won? XD
I guess Gief brings the grief win or lose.

I beat a taunting, teabagging Karin 2-1 with Birdie this morning and two hours later he sent me a message saying "i outplayed u. u only won bcuz grabs are op"
I like to think he was sitting there sputtering with rage, furiously typing then backspacing while trying to compose the perfect salt message for the entire two hours.

For the love of all that is sacred can we PLEASE have a Laura costume without any of her assets being thrust into your face? I mean, I don't mind it, but it's difficult when I have to go round my cousins, whose mother is a devout and conservative Muslim. Had to switch to Karin for a few games smh.
Here we have Mrs. Cool Kid93 showing the FGC that not everything has to be toxic. He has got a diamond there. Bless her.

What is this, SF2? "No throws!" XD
I guess he was pissed that Gief just throws all the time or pushes you to the corner? He was playing Guile and just booming his way through like he should. Easy mode really, so I don't know what he was expecting.
Like, why are you still playing this game a year in if you aren't trying to learn and get pissed at throws even if you win? Lol

I had a passing thought about Smash that led to a vision of SF where touching either wall was equivalent to losing a round and everyone was playing Ken help.

I don't know what that team did to incite DarkChyld like that...
He wasn't popping off like that yesterday.
Because it's not open to the public. Only family members, players, and special guests like Snake Eyez are allowed.

I need to switch it up currently.
I feel like I've hit a wall and become too predictable to start ranking up again, maybe I should go back to Cammy or actually attempt to learn Ibuki for real now.
But I got a question I wanna ask you guys here
I have a crippling issue in all fighters that I wonder if any others struggle with, I can only do my combos properly when I'm on the left side of the screen. when I'm on the right I can barely pull off a half circle to save my life and will always try to jump over, or do a back throw to help me out. Anyone else have an issue like this? I've been practicing to break bad habits, but I subconsciously keep doing this over and over again.

Sit in the lab and lab it out fam. Whenever I practice, I do both sides.
And damn, guess I'm not going to EVO. Expenses came up and kinda blindsided me, but at the same time, I guess it's not so bad since the people who wanted to go weren't into fighters in the first place. I'll probably hit up the next fairly close CPT event to make up for it and finally buy myself a decent stick.
Do they usually run promotions during EVO or before?

I think many players favor one side or another, perhaps not to the extant of not pulling of anything on one side, but there is definitely a bias.
Just train doing those moves and combos in training constantly switching sides I guess...
I'd pay upwards of $10 USD for a full BJJ gi alt for Laura.
