#Esports. I guess this is how ESL does things except I guess they don't know fighting games can finish grand finals in less than 20 minutes sometimes.

Top 16 at Treta.

Koema won his match, so he's in top 8 winners now I think.

Edit:

http://challonge.com/trt2016sfvtop16

Top 8:

Winners

Koema vs FCBR Ramon
SFT_DarkH18 vs Hkdesh

Losers:

Brook Mysterio vs winner of Luviha/Hnkmeister
Brook Cabelo 3000/VegasZ vs Didimokof/Cabeca

However, they are running winners top 8 first on stream.

SFT_DarkH18 already won, so it's Koema vs Ramon on stream right now.

top 16 was already 3/5.

 

[Horseress]

top 16 was already 3/5.

I know, but maybe they can do first to 10 or to 7, since there's only grand finals left

They are already 2 and a half late with SFV grand finals, a singing performance, and grand finals for CS:GO.

They are not changing the rules of the tournament now and extend the day even further.

E-Sports is makeup

 

[Alucrid]

i'm like 80% sure no cs go people are watching

 

[JayEH]

Pre game going to be longer than the actual game.

 

[tapinn]

Damn, Doren2k's Jam is ridiculous.

 

[mnz]

Pre game going to be longer than the actual game.

Esports organisations will never learn how quick fighting game matches are

 

[crap monkey]

This GF can honestly end in less than 20 mins, what are they gonna do, analyze every match for ten mins before jumping into the next?

 

[pixelish]

ski's analysis on xiaohai sounds so scripted

edit: okay this is a rap battle now

 

[bryt]

LMAO ZHI

 

[That Dude John]

actual ninja blood

 

[Sinatar]

They managed to get Ski to take off his stupid hat but he's still wearing jeans.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Zhi fucking LOL

 

[Dahbomb]

LMAO @ Zhi!

Hamming it up for the crowd.

After that intro how can you not root for Momochi? He LITERALLY HAS NINJA BLOOD IN HIM!!!

 

[JayEH]

Most powerful couple in esports.

 

[Basketball]

Persia is great

 

[RangerBAD]

Shadow Ninja control.

 

[Sou Da]

so is there a cs game going on or something?

 

[RangerBAD]

It was delayed because of CS:GO.

 

[Sinatar]

CSGO was what the whole event was about, SFV was a tiny side thing. There were 300k people watching CSGO at one point.

 

[Tripon]

10,000 to watch promos and interviews. That must be some record.

 

[JayEH]

Starting to think there is no grand finals.

LMAO they're losing viewers. Great job ESL.

 

[Alucrid]

correction, they managed to get Ski to take off his stupid hats*

They should've kept SFV on the same stream lol

 

[mnz]

SFV is basically the filler between CS semi-final and grand final

 

[Dahbomb]

Digital

Electronic

Athletics

I meant in the background, saw four people on the computers.

 

[pixelish]

you got what you wished for, dahbomb.

I thought the ESL tournament ran pretty well today with pretty solid production values.

Though I don't really agree with only GFs for one day. Maybe top 4. I am fine with experimentation of new formats but they must have something insane planned for tomorrow. I want like big player profiles/stories, special videos edited with their best plays and interviews leading up to the grand final.

 

[Dahbomb]

you got what you wished for, dahbomb.

I expected nothing less from this digital electronic athletics competition.

 

[Tripon]

Finally starting the match.

 

[Augemitbutter]

i came for esports.

 

[pixelish]

i really hope momochi resets the bracket so the set goes longer than 10 minutes

 

[Totakeke]

That's a loud crowd at least.

 

[Sou Da]

Holy fucking shit did they actually make them both pick blue because of ESL synergy?

 

[RangerBAD]

Momochiii!

 

[ArjanN]

Damn, Doren2k's Jam is ridiculous.

Yeah, that was hype.

 

[bryt]

Is the crowd real or fake? lol they cheering at weird times.
