Wait, are you doing cr. normal, stand, QCF? You can just hold down, press normal, df, f, PP...

That's what I'm doing. It's probably just because I'm on a fightpad instead of a stick.

 

[h3ro]

I'm kind of digging the commentary right now... :S

SEE WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU TAKE AWAY RUSH HOUR FROM ME!!!

 

[Anth0ny]

subzero looking strong!

but my god this esports commentary...

 

[K.Sabot]

I love it, so E-sports.

 

[h3ro]

Here come's that lame stuff!

Come on Die, let's see some timeouts.

 

[MiniBossBattle]

Is... Is this E-Sports?

 

[finalboss2]

these casters are really boring

 

[Rocwell]

Steve has an unusual anti-air game. It seems like he has to mix it up between using his cr. fierce or early jumping hp/hk and his sway, duck, and spin moves to evade jump ins. Not sure if the counter is safe on block but that could be an option as well.

Based on early testing it looks like there are enough landing frames that steve can do a sway into a jab or shoulder when they jump at you and if they are mashing jab they will get counterhit. The nice thing about this is you can turn the tables on them and put them in blockstun and start pressure rather than being put in it yourself.

Rufus' divekicks are gonna be a bitch to deal with though since they beat all of his dodge moves except for the spin at certain angles.

LETS GO DIEMINION

show me that this game isn't stupid rushdown

 

[Ferrio]

these casters are really boring

Welcome to the world of esports. Ever watch a League of Legends stream? It's like watching golf.


Yep, sounds like golf commentary... ugh

 

[brian]

The golf claps killed me. I'm dead. fuck.

 

[h3ro]

I recognized ViktheSlik, who's the other commentator?

 

[K.Sabot]

Dieminion with the Big 2 Finals team.

 

[black_vegeta]

"Alex Valle with Rushing It Down."

Lame ass commentators, it's Rushing That Shit Down!!! >:|

 

[K.Sabot]

"Alex Valle with Rushing It Down."

Lame ass commentators, it's Rushing That Shit Down!!! >:|

The official level up slogan "getting in that butt".

 

[Kadey]

Guile sounds like he swings the other way whenever he says sonic boom.

This stream is proof that commentary has to fit the matches for it to be entertaining as well.

 

[spindashing]

Guile sounds like he swings the other way whenever he says sonic boom.

Easy operation!

i watch DOTA casts and Tobi Wan can keep excitement through a 6 hour cast better than these guys can over 5 minutes.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Alexes cross combos with law and kaz are sick. You would think Dieminon would be able to lame out more effectively now that he can downback in even larger stages....KAPPA.

 

[Anth0ny]

What the hell is up with Guile's Sonic Boom sound clip? LOL


Also, Valle going in!!!!!

 

[kewlmyc]

Valle is godly at this game. I don't even know how to cross rush.

 

[Barrage]

Presentation is awfuk, but Valle's Kazuya/Law is the truth.

 

[black_vegeta]

The official level up slogan "getting in that butt".

lol

 

[Kadey]

Sahnick beum, sahnick beum, sahnick beum.

 

[h3ro]

Dat lame stuff.

Love it.

 

[Chavelo]

I swear, if MLG goes with this type of commentary and use someone else besides Juicebox for KOF, I'll fuckin... powerbomb a goddamn child on a cement sidewalk.

Like, I will pick up the kid, put his head with neck up below my crotch, pick him up by the stomach, then do the fucking Last Ride pose and make sure to break his back with all my force.

Do you want me to do that shit, MLG? No? Then fucking go with Juicebox!

 

[Imm0rt4l]

it's strange seeing a tigeruppercut get beat clean, well coming from sf4 anyways.

 

[Ferrio]

Okay why the headsets. Are they just so used to putting them on Starcraft players that they threw them on?

 

[Judderman]

I swear, if MLG goes with this type of commentary and use someone else besides Juicebox for KOF, I'll fuckin... powerbomb a goddamn child on a cement sidewalk.

We'll be the Dudley Boyz, I'll set up the table, you power bomb from the top rope.

 

[biosnake20]

It sounds like guile says "Belly easy" on reversals.

 

[Mr Jared]

The golf claps killed me. I'm dead. fuck.

To be fair, there's not a lot of people here. Screen Burn is unfortunately about 2 miles away from the rest of SXSW. I don't expect the convention center in general to get much traffic.

I also just realized the Lollipop Chainsaw bus is here.. so hopefully that's playable :3

 

[Ferrio]

Someone needs to tell these guys that commentating isn't just saying what you see on screen. We have eyes, this isn't radio.

 

[darkressurection]

Yeah, if there was any solid piece of evidence against applying eSports style presentation to fighting games it is definitely this stream.

 

[Bob White]

Anyone going to Level Up's tourney tomorrow at super arcade? If so, I'm looking for a partner for the 2v2 tourney.

 

[Threi]

it's strange seeing a tigeruppercut get beat clean, well coming from sf4 anyways.

both special and normal anti-airs are getting stuffed way too easily.

 

[Ferrio]

Now they'll shake hands and have a 20 minute interview.

 

[Busaiku]

Is this really typical eSports commentary?

 

[MiniBossBattle]

both special and normal anti-airs are getting stuffed way too easily.

That was my whole gameplan with Sim in SF4. I WANTED people to jump. SFxT: Never stop jumping.

 

[Fersis]

You guys are such haters. You cant expect #esports reaching FGC level of awesome so soon.

 

[SarcasticD]

Looking extremely Esports now.

How many people are in that room? Sounds like an art exhibition.

 

[kewlmyc]

Women announcers!?!? Fuck the FGC, go ESPORTS!

 

[KidA Seven]

Yeah, if there was any solid piece of evidence against applying eSports style presentation to fighting games it is definitely this stream.

Not really.


There is no fgc crowd since it wasn't really advertised. No crowd = boring. Ultrachen's style is esports style as well since they're pg.

 

[abq]

Is the chick really necessary?

 

[Ferrio]

Oh god...

 

[h3ro]

Yoshua's Micky Mouse/Sonic Tshirt is gotlike.

 

[Nabs]

I'm dying here, haha.

 

[toddhunter]

Presentation is fine for me. I'm enjoying the matches.

 

[brian]

I'm not even talking about the crowd. The woman that is hosting comes out and golf claps after every match.

 

[Aruarian Reflection]

Is the chick really necessary?

Cyberathlete girlfriends/wives need jobs

 

[The Return of]

NerdJosh was putting on that heavy pressure with Ryu, damn.
