Fri, September 30, 3pm - 8pm (PDT)/6pm – 11pm (EDT)

hey tripon, please include this event in this weekend's tournament thread if you haven't.

new legacy is a exhibition event co-organised by esl, next level and team spooky, acting as a prelude to esl nyc this weekend.

they have a crowdfunding site set up to crowdfund the pot bonus for their side tournament that's happening on the same day.

if the stretch goals are indeed real, i'm very excited for the event mainly because of chris hu singing on stream. it's been a long time since i've heard chris hu's angelic voice.

[Sinatar]

That's a lot of tournaments, damn.

Looking forward to the ESL one, should be fun.

Tell me about it. I might skip watching most of this weekend too because Don Arcade's actually open on a Saturday.

Reminder that there'll be Vampire Savior tomorrow: https://www.twitch.tv/rotanibor

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

Where's SFV at ceotaku?

 

[Zyrox]

Dat Anime OP. Kinda amazing. Will tune in to watch some Blazblue.

 

[Producer]

Packed weekend. So much stuff to watch.

also that ceotaku mascot is kinda wack

 

[Dahbomb]

Where's SFV at ceotaku?

Not anime enough.

Though real answer is that CEOtaku is a tournament for the less prominent fighters and it's their platform to really have the limelight.

 

[Tripon]

BTW, Urien is banned for this week at CPT events. He'll be playable at SEAM and The Fall Classic next week.

He's also banned at Brooklyn Beatdown. New Legacy will allow Urien if anyone cares to play him.

Ah ok. Cause I was gonna say I though SFV was anime!

It isn't at CEOtaku, thank god.

Lame.

Playing games is better than watching someone else play them.

 

[redhood56]

So for Brooklyn Beatdown they are having every match but grand finals on Saturday? That's a bit weird. It makes sense for a game like Counter Strike but Infiltration will probably body the person in 15 minutes.

 

[Tecl0n]

That's a big pot for brooklyn beatdown.

 

[Tripon]

Brooklyn Beatdown is at ESL One, so it likely does have to compete with the finals of Counter Strike for time.

Friday, 30th of September
Behind Closed Doors / Arena is opened Saturday + Sunday!
11:00 am EDT: Round 1 - Match 1
~12:15 pm EDT: Round 1 - Match 2
~01:30 pm EDT: Round 1 - Match 3
~02:45 pm EDT: Round 1 - Match 4
~04:05 pm EDT: Round 2 - Match 1
~05:20 pm EDT: Round 2 - Match 2
~06:35 pm EDT: Round 2 - Match 3
~07:50 pm EDT: Round 2 - Match 4
~09:05 pm EDT: Round 3 - Match 1

In the stadium: Saturday, 1st of October
10:00 am EDT: Open doors
11:00 am EDT: Round 3 - Match 2
~12:30 pm EDT: Round 3 - Match 3
~02:00 pm EDT: Round 3 - Match 4
~03:30 pm EDT: Round 4 - Match 1
~05:00 pm EDT: Round 4 - Match 2
~06:30 pm EDT: Round 4 - Match 3
~08:00 pm EDT: Round 5 - Match 1
~09:30 pm EDT: Round 5 - Match 2 (if required)

In the stadium: Sunday, 2nd of October
10:00 am EDT: Open doors
11:00 am EDT: Semi final number one
~03:00 pm EDT: Semi final number two
~07:00 pm EDT: ESL One New York grand final

Looks like SFV grand finals is nestled inbetween semi finals two and ESL One Grand finals at 6pm EDT. ESL probably wants a quick turn around from CS:GO semis to SFV grand finals to CS:GO Grand finals

 

[eggandI]

Oh wow look, the first stacked tourney since EVO and also the first tourney since then I'll bother watching more than Daigo's matches for! Thank god it's a one day event except for GF.

Seriously though this year's CPT has been a complete hype killer. What a mess.

Japan Cup, First Attack, Well Played Cup were all hype.

Nuki's Madcatz TE2+ just died again on stream.

 

[Syntsui]

This is stacked as fuck, can't wait for it. And yeah I agree. too many hypeless tournaments due to malfunctioning sticks.

 

[El Sabroso]

stacked weekend, HYPE!

 

[Zackat]

Welp I know what I'm doing this weekend. Thanks for the thread again

 

[Sayad]

Ah ok. Cause I was gonna say I though SFV was anime!

It is anime, it's just not otaku.

 

[Danis Saur]

Holy hell its been a year since everyone spammed "Waifu! VoHiYo" in chat everytime the mascot showed up? I can't believe it....

 

[Malice215]

Looking forward to more villainy from Mr. Philpot.

 

[Tripon]

Updated OP with alternative stream schedule and brackets for CEOtaku

 

[KidA Seven]

Going to be paying attention to ESL.


A bloodbath is going to occur.

 

[Sayad]

Any notable international players showing up for CEOtaku? ESL taking Kazu away is a bit of a disappointment.

 

[jobber]

No OP:BB at CEOtaku????

fuck this shit

 

[Tripon]

New legacy should be live.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Smug pls

Yipes is the best.

 

[KidA Seven]

America getting bopped

 

[pixelish]

i just woke up and managed to catch the last game of valle vs cen. did i miss chris hu's live karaoke session and henry cen eating top ramen on stream?

 

[Raiku]

All in for ESL 👍 👍 👍

 

[RocBase]

Hahaha...wtf at that CEOtaku OP.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Wish me luck at Catherine y'all. I'm going to have one hell of an uphill battle for me to get second place like I did last year. Worst case scenario I'm sure I'll be commentating!

[Malice215]

Are yall watching this?

[SMK]

Yeah that last set was great.

wolfkrone sux

BTW, Urien is banned for this week at CPT events. He'll be playable at SEAM and The Fall Classic next week.

He's also banned at Brooklyn Beatdown. New Legacy will allow Urien if anyone cares to play him.

Why do they even ban new characters for SFV, every time? Nobody is going to play him either way, and Capcom isn't gonna deliver any balance patches any time soon anyway!

 

[Tripon]

The rule is a 2 week ban after release. It's actually shorter than most tournaments had it before, which was usually a month.

And i think a lot of people would try out Urien in tournament actually. He seems like a character that would catch people in surprise if used in a tournament.

 

[pixelish]

yesss chris hu gonna sing soon!!!
