[B-Genius]

Sorry to interupt the stream comments, but I've just been playing AE via Steam (on a fibre-optic connection in Japan), and it's the best online Street Fighter experience I've ever had.

Even on wireless, there are green bars all over the place, and lag is almost non-existent. It basically feels like a local match.

If anyone is playing AE on PC, my Live tag is BGenius and my Steam name is Bobio. If you happen to be in Japan, even better

One thing though; the game seems to suffer from really bad slowdown after about 30mins of playing. This could just be my laptop overheating, but this doesn't happen with any other game. I was wondering if anyone had experienced anything similar?

Cheers, and happy fightotti.

I leave the tab to browse GAF and I see him beating Dudley.

Oh well. If I wanted to see Hawk beat Dudley, I'd just challenge Immortal.

 

[USD]

Wow, that's the first time I've seen a Gen'ei Jin combo like that.

Tonpy up now.

 

[Lost Fragment]

In your face, Eva.

In your faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace.

Despite your manners, I like your style. Let me buy you a drink...after I've mopped the floor with you.

Epic comeback by the Ken on block H

 

[USD]

Shiro playing now (Red Makoto).

 

[Lost Fragment]

Which stream are we watching? The NSB2 one isn't working for me

 

[jman2050]

Refresh the stream.

Also it's downright ugly how quickly Akuma just dies against Makoto. And the other way around for that matter.

 

[Lost Fragment]

Still not working. Bleh. Hope they put up a recording.

Yeah the stream has had some issues, sometimes won't properly load, but then magically will 5 minutes later. Next time I'll post the Nico link too. Of course you need an account to watch on Niconico though.

 

[Professor Beef]

GDLK time out win by Hawk.

 

[Conceited]

Wow @ that time out

 

[USD]

Haha, has to be patting himself on the back for beating laggy Blanka with T.Hawk.

Wasn't on the NSB stream, but ACQUA just won his second match. Momochi coming up on the stream now.

 

[Professor Beef]

That was a nice Dan/Ibuki match in the lower right-hand screen.

 

[USD]

Yun's cross-up Kobokushi/Shoulder is so dirty.

Tonpy playing now.

 

[USD]

KOG up again on block J.

[USD]

Shiro up again on block H.

[jman2050]

Shiro is really good at baiting DPs

 

[USD]

That was a nice Dan/Ibuki match in the lower right-hand screen.

That same Dan is playing again on the bottom right, pretty godlike.

Momochi playing again vs. Ibuki, I was too busy watching the Dan match.

 

[jman2050]

Dan is tearing shit up.

Can Shiro put an end to the madness?

 

[USD]

Tonpy playing again. If he wins he's in the block finals. If Shiro wins his next match he fights Tonpy.

KOG playing on J, middle right screen. Shiro the main screen. People in the chat are saying the Dan player is Aniki/STRIP FIGHTER.

 

[USD]

Momochi playing against Hawk on Africa stage.

Shiro-Aniki was really good, Shiro turned it up the last game. Momochi down a game right now.

Bottom right is Shiro-Tonpy, H block finals.

 

[jman2050]

Makoto-Viper is such a silly match.

Off to bed with me now.

 

[eva01]

In your face, Eva.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOooo

 

[USD]

Momochi and KOG just made finals for their respective blocks, while ACQUA in Block I is at semi-finals.

And all three players won, ACQUA in finals now.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Can't view the ustream, so what will happen with all the winners?

 

[USD]

The finals are supposed to be starting within the next 30 45 minutes some time. I'm guessing the rest of the matches will be on NSB2, not sure.

Right now they're doing a "loser's bracket" with random registered players to fill out the rest of the bracket to 16.

 

[sephi22]

Don't know if already posted but I was watching the Capcom Unity stream on this guy's archive and he's already got King of Chinatown archived.

Wow, this is as much about Triforce as Justin. Dat drama

 

[Kadey]

I tripped over something and I broke one of my stream stuff so I can't stream until I get it replaced. OOoooohhhh.

Thanks for the wishes Ghostridah. Lost another bet. Damn I suck.

NSB×NSB is down to the Top 16 now.

Bracket:

[SamVimes]

Is this best of 3?

 

[jlai]

Single elim?

 

[USD]

Is this best of 3?

Single elim?

Yes and yes.

 

[KidA Seven]

Good shit from Acqua.

 

[jlai]

Poor KOG

 

[USD]

Funny, the T.Hawk that Momochi played in the block semi-finals (MaaO-mAAO) was giving him a lot of trouble, even after he switched to Cody. KOG however is just getting worked over.

Top 16 is character-lock, by the way. Nevermind, using the same format as before. Have to start off with your registered character, but can switch you lose.

 

[KidA Seven]

Momochi doing work.

 

[KidA Seven]

Ibuki ftw

 

[USD]

Guy had a pretty beastly Sagat.

There's pretty good character variety in Top 16, the only repeat (registered) characters are Akuma (3, including 1 already eliminated) and Yun (2).

 

[freenudemacusers]

Rose standing next to knocked-down Zangief seems like a bad idea lol

 

[SamVimes]

That Seth.

 

[USD]

Shiro playing in the last 1st-round match.

 

[SamVimes]

Momochi-Acqua? This may be the best match until one of them plays against Shiro.

EDIT: WTF, i closed the stream by mistake and now it's not working anymore on both Opera and Chrome.

 

[KidA Seven]

Momochi is tearing Acqua apart.

 

[USD]

Momochi's Yun is killer.

 

[SamVimes]

Fuck this.

EDIT: solved rebooting the pc, Bananagief destroyed this Yun.

 

[USD]

Yeah, this has happened to me a few times. Ustream being shitty is nothing new though.

 

[Corky]

who's the gief?

 

[USD]

who's the gief?

No idea. The vast majority of players in the tourney aren't everyday names, but looking at the PP levels and how far they've gotten, they're obviously good.
