Note: FloKO is being used to stream every pool match at Socal Regionals. So you can watch your friends go 0-2 and they can't claim otherwise, it should be for every game played on SFV at SCR. How they are doing it can be read here. (Info provided by //ARCANUM, Senior editor at FloKO) http://www.floko.tv/video/997007-introducing-floarena-live-brackets-on-floko

Schedule:

Brackets: https://smash.gg/tournament/socal-regionals-2016/events

Also, Brackets are being shifted from Smash.gg to FloKO's internal system. So expect some wonkiness with any transition. The reason is to help FloKO's pool's coverage. (Info provided by //ARCANUM, Senior editor at FloKO).

I also know Vulva, and I will be at SCR. I have work until 12PM Sat, so I will likely miss my pools. Give a shout out in the thread if you're also going, maybe we can say hi!

It's the third week in a row with a super loaded tournament. Get your fantasy picks for SCR in now, or risk losing all of your momentum!

I know Im part of the minority, but I'm hyped for MKXL at SCR. The pools are stacked!

 

[Sinatar]

I'm really not fond of how they are running their regional finals at the same weekend as a premier event for both SCR and Canada Cup. Premiers are supposed to encourage top players to travel which isn't going to happen if they think they have an easier road at the regional final.

My pools was at 10am for SFV, so I am definitely going to miss them due to being at work.

Oh well.

 

[Alchemist]

Sako vs Bonchan Grand Finals was sick

 

[JayEH]

Glad low tier Ken was able to win that 1-9 match up against sim.

 

[Immortal Technique]

Somebody named Mothman won his pool at SCR beating GO1 and Marq Teddy, among others. GO1 did get out of the pool in losers.

 

[Lulubop]

Somebody named Mothman won his pool at SCR beating GO1 and Marq Teddy, among others. GO1 did get out of the pool in losers.

who did he play?

 

[mnz]

GO1 kinda lost his momentum a little bit, hasn't he? He was considered one of the best players and the best Chun for a while.

And why is Justin at SCR? I thought he didn't want to gatekeep any US tournaments.

 

[Lulubop]

Anyone else have a mancrush on Ultradavid. I could listen him forever and he always makes me laugh. What a dreamboat

 

[Lulubop]

These Dominican dudes are fucking good

 

[Wallach]

These Dominican dudes are fucking good

that birdie player just put a wicked boot in ricky's ass, wasn't even really a close set

 

[HeartlessNobody213]

That mernard dude is a beast. First the taunt that took down a whole team and now bodying Ricki.
