Update from WCG in France. Oh and this is why Daigo, Eita, and Fuudo weren't at Gods Garden 2. It's because they're in France trying to make some real money.

2v2 Team Finals

Team Japan 1: Daigo/Eita vs aAa: Yamazaki93/lorddvd

lorddvd(Honda) beats Eita(Akuma)
Daigo(Ryu) beats Yamazaki93(Ryu)
Daigo beats lorddvd

Team Japan 1 takes it. There was 64 teams with a total pot of 1920 Euros(about $2600). I don't know how the money is split though. There is still 2 more SF4 tournaments remaining, the Master Series and the solo. I think both finals take place tomorrow.

What is the difference?

How they're set up and the prize(s). The Solo is just like regular tourney you see in the US. A ton of people enter(capped at 256) and put money into the pot, and it's split up a certain way I guess. The Master series has qualifiers and specific prizes.

The qualifiers have already been decided and the 8 are Daigo, Fuudo, Eita, Ryan Hart, Alioune, Evans, Dieminion and Yamazaki93. The winner gets a plane ticket to Evo and a secret prize that will of course remain secret until the winner has been decided.

are the french tourneys not being streamed?

Nope, but they are recording matches. Most likely just the top 8 or whatever though. The page below already has some matches from the Masters Series, or you can go find them on youtube instead

Toss me an invite, if you want to play with me now, a bit above the mediocre Viper here, Hungary (good connection to most of the other eu-gaffers..)

I'm guessing a bunch of people watched the Gods Garden II stream, saw the results, and decided to give Akuma a try, because I encountered more tonight than I ever have before. :lol

GG's AZ Greg. great Dhalsim and that vega gets me mad, lol.

GGs.

I'm still at a loss for how to approach the Sim/Rog match. :( Thanks for putting up with all the beatings you gave me. It was good EXP. And sorry about only picking Vega once. It's hard to go from Sim to other characters. I'll pick him more next time we play so you can get your revenge.

@ Black_V: Yeah, I really only frequent the SF threads and the NFL threads. Lets you fly under the radar. Plus, the SF and NFL threads are frequented by some of the more chill mods.

Congrats on the win Oichi!

Reno, congrats on winning your newcomer tournament.

Gods Garden from what I saw (the loser's bracket) was probably the best stream EVAR in regards to gathering of gdlk players. The Guiles, the Sagats, the Goukis, the Vipers, The Tyson Boxer, Kens, etc.

This game is still so awesome a year later. I'm going online now to celebrate my love (tries to stay away from AZ Greg and his Dhalsim).

I noticed some gaffers (Black_Vegeta and threi) coming into the stream for our local tournament.

Thanks for dropping by guys. I know we're not FADC, but hey.

The guys will be posting the HD videos of the tournament soon - I highly recommend you guys watch the finals. It was completely insane and featured our local top tier Chun versus a Seth from Ontario.

Seriously, shit was dope. :)

GGs, AZ Greg. I was hoping to avoid you since the last time we played was the last time I played. You mauled me again 10-2 (though some of them were close). I'm starting to get familiar with the shenanigans. It probably doesn't help to use alien characters though.

I like that little combo with the ultra then super.

I went on PSN afterward, and it was dead in the GAFchat room. Probably have to go during the week.

I won't go into the whole back story but I guess Blackace didn't apprectiate me bringing some saltynass to the MLB: The Show thread.

Something told me to keep my mouth shut. I'm just glad to be back with dat GAF fam!!

GG's AZ Greg, Sim-Gief matches are always brutal. Unfortunately for me, I was learning how to use a stick while we were playing, putting my execution in the shitter; I was so pissed at all the random input mistakes that were happening. I probably upset a lot of the people on my hall with rage noises :lol I guess playing good people in hard matchups and taking the stick plunge don't mix too well. GG's again though, I'll have to play you again once I've got a better handle on the stick.

I know how you feel. I just got a stick myself and I whiff some of the easiest things. It also bothers the crap out of me that for the life of me I can't naturally do a dash forward in any of the fighting games. It literally feels like I'm fighting against the stick if I wanna move forward fast lol.

It's weird that I can't always get a fireball off either. Maybe stick just isn't for me and I should stick with pad?
