capcom taking down videos of EVO matches?

 

[QisTopTier]

So VxG is this weekend?

Can't believe I got banned on EVO weekend.... ;~;

Better than getting banned on Xmas week when you are home alone all day to begin with.

They're putting up there own, of course they'd go after the restreams.

 

[Popnbake]

I think he's being way to reclusive. I doubt sitting in the arcade all day, grinding BP, is the way to go. He needs to attend tournaments in order to not get rusty in that type of setting

It could help but Infiltration who attended and won other tournaments (CEO, Dreamhack, Capcom E3) didn't make it to Top 8 either this year.

 

[SloaneRisette]

Hi-res soakrates in that last pic. =o

Oh shit I'm in it too

 

[RockTurtle]

redbull needs better sources for their videos then

Or getting 2-week banned during the launch of your favourite fighting game AND it's update.

Well if you get banned again then there might be a patch!

 

[CO_Andy]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned that this is the first year a female player has it into top 8.

 

[Silky]

Someome beach up my avatar if you can ;~;

For BlazBlue, right? I was concentrating on getting food around that time.

for what game

 

[QisTopTier]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned that this is the first year a female player has it into top 8.

Personally I don't like making a big deal out of something like that as it makes it seem like female players somehow normally shouldn't be able to get into the top 8. Who was it btw?

 

[NEO0MJ]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned that this is the first year a female player has it into top 8.

Wasn't that a cross-dresser?

I'm sad no one has mastered Juri yet because of her complexity plus no one really using her at all over the years to begin with... she's dumb now.

Having played her for a bit recently, she's not all that complex. Nothing about her is really all that hard, it's just you need really strong, consistent footsies to make her work. That's a thing very few people have ;_;

 

[Deckard Cain]

It was a dude cosplaying as a girl bro.

 

[kirblar]

Yeah, it was a gag based on his name getting accidentally feminized when it was misspelled.

I thought it was just a wig but that guy really went with it.

yea I'm playing her right now. She isn't that bad. Too bad the stand jab buff didn't really do anything since she still can't connect it consistently during combos on crouching characters

Real talk people are not maximizing on FSE. It's arguably the best ultra in the game too

Can't wait for EVO to be broadcast on TLC.

people have been saying this for a long ass time. so much so that it makes me doubt that it really is as fantastic as people say it is. yossan is doing work and if he hasnt figured out how to use it right i dont know who will.

 

[MiniBossBattle]

Can't wait for EVO to be broadcast on TLC.

Gooteck and Mike Ross on a confessional couch talking about each others T-Hawks. Then cut to them doing domestic stuff and realize that even though they are FGC-poor, they do stuff just like us.

Spoiler

My wife watches too many of those formatted shows.

What I posted is a real mod.

I LOVE THIS MOD!

Justin's team is older than ChrisG's....

In fact it's THE OLDEST TEAM in MVC3 that is still played competitively.

Wolverine too good.

I'm sad no one has mastered Juri yet because of her complexity plus no one really using her at all over the years to begin with... she's dumb now.

Basically, yeah.

People should be using it more like soul satellite IMO. Juri's counter moves gives her a similar tool to Rose's soul reflect in that it builds her ultra meter against characters who have to play the fire ball game. She should potentially have two a round in those MUs. People mostly save as for a comeback when I think you should be threatening them with it on your terms and forcing them into the corner where Juri excels. Now since she has W ultra she's able to have that tool and have the comeback factor with ultra 2 at the same time. Her fuzzy guard setup are more potent with that. She can also build meter for another ultra while in FSE.

Anyways this is just theory fighter.

Someone told me at work that DOTA 2 will be broadcasted on ESPN3/ESPN 2.

I said wow....


Edit: NVM there's actually a GAF thread for it. Still pretty insane.

Basically this

I feel like you need that and the ability to walk or put dudes into the corner.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

The Fray will be on tonight with Dacidbro, Yipes and Mike Ross at 7pm PST. Evo talk probably.

also

Tokido vs Snake Eyez

If Juri lands any BnB into HK pinwheel that gets them halfway there, but otherwise, it's all fireballs and normals. Juri is a very simple character but her zoning and anti-fireball games are unique.

 

[Beckx]

What are the chances the Beech actually happens?

Also, anyone want a PS4 code for Destiny beta, quote to reveal.

[ShinMaruku]

I don't think it's because of her complexity. I just think she inspires the wrong players.
Like me

I wonder if Yipes is going to announce his next team.

Would you consider taking some questions from GundamGAF about RoI?

That is crazy. Dota 2 reached eSports level on national TV.

Damn DryEye, you made my night excellent. I am going to watch the stream and that match with Snake Eyez once I'm done for the night!

WHAT!? I'm hosting the panel?!

Clearly you're still in Vegas. Get out of there Mark, we need you doing the good work of the FightStick gods!

 

[Passive Assassin]

isn't the tekken vampire technically ... a succubus?

 

[vas_a_morir]

Tekken used to be my game in the 90's. I'm going to jump back in when 7 comes out.
