RayRay played a Zero team? I wasn't paying attention.

I'm going to take a wild stab and guess that Smash/Injustice have pools in a different location
edit: are they really running Swiss pools for Melee? that's certainly an....interesting idea

So one of our dallas players tommy gunz, (from that online tourney where he choked it up to wong in the grand finals) just got called out. This is one of the greatest things I have ever seen.

sick projector setup at the venue
Sp00ky did say that Smash is being held in a classroom at Civil War today, so that might help with that answer.

Was Civil War even advertised at all this year, let alone this month? This week is honestly the first I've heard of it.

The last couple years they had trailers for it at majors, but I don't remember seeing anything this year.

By this time next year Marvel is going to be on life support. It's gonna be like 2008-2010 all over again. Only the super dedicated hardcores will play & the rest will move on to Ultra or something else.
By that token, our local tournament later will be a major because ChrisG is here?
Also, if you wanna watch ChrisG destroy randoms with chunli/x23/hsienko watch this:

Yesterday was a wild night, but I won't post a thing until I can prove what happened with pictures
While 100% true... life support Marvel will still probably be getting more entrants than most other games.

Marvel will still be no.2 after ultra, even on life support. Imo.
Same here, literally had no idea that this was happening until today. Been busy today and just getting on to watch and was gonna ask if I had missed anything crazy, but sounds like no.
Edit: Holy shit at the crowd cam, there is fucking no one there.

Melee is only 7.4246% away from second place in Evo registrations though.
Robot fighting tournament Vector Strike is kicking off at Super Arcade in 4 hours!
Tex from GundamGAF will be playing in Gundam & VOOT. Tex is cool; root for Tex. (Team Pup n Suds)
If you like Virtual On: OT, my friend Schooly D lays claim to being one of the best VOOT players in the country - so please drive the stream numbers up to put pressure on him to show it! (I'd bet on him to make Grand Finals)
As mentioned before, Donkey Show's bro (GM Custom) is going to be commenting the Gundam matches, and GAFfer Shingin is responsible for the stream.
VOOT stream starts at 9EST, Gundam at 10EST. www.twitch.tv/iebattlegrounds.
