Damn, no one talking about dis shiet?

Nintendo probably didn't want their IPs associated with such a low-tier tourney.

The commentators even thanked Nintendo for not shutting down the tournament. :rock

Post by: iconoclast on July 13, 2013, 03:20:48 AM: Day 1 of SF4 was nuts. Daigo & Infiltration are in losers bracket (and they'll be facing each other on Sunday, so one of them is about to get eliminated). Infiltration also had to eliminate Laugh (close friend & training partner) and they were clearly not happy about that. :lol :'(
Title: Re: EVO2K
Post by: brob on July 13, 2013, 04:04:42 AM: Here is the top 8 for Street Fighter 4 that will be played on Sunday. All matches are best of out five.

Winners
Xian(Gen) vs Sako(Evil Ryu, Ibuki)
PR Rog(Balrog, Fei Long) vs Tokido(Akuma)

Losers
Daigo(Ryu) vs Infiltration (Akuma)
Gamerbee(Adon) vs Haitani(Makoto)

Haitani supposedly played Rufus off-stream, but didn't want to disappoint those who wanted to see Makoto so I assume he'll keep that up for the duration.

Whoa who placed Daigo and Infiltration in losers?
Title: Re: EVO2K
Post by: brob on July 13, 2013, 04:22:39 AM: Infiltration was done in by PR Rog. Daigo by Tokido.

EVO スパ4AE最終日に残りました！
ウメさんに大きな大会で勝つのは10年ぶりです。

I made top 8 AE at EVO!!
It was ten years ago I beat DAIGO at Big tournament last time.

edit: there must've been a malfunction in the umeshoryu generator

Post by: mjemirzian on July 13, 2013, 06:46:51 AM: Isn't Evo seeding kind of unfair to international players that don't get to participate in all the US seed point tourneys?

Anyways, it's a shame when two big international competitors KO eachother while other local players get relatively easier matchups in the brackets.

Screw that, go for broke. You're in the losers bracket so you should be attempting to not get eliminated, you know?
Title: Re: EVO2K
Post by: brob on July 13, 2013, 11:18:23 AM: If you have to play Rufus to win, did you really win? Nietzsche warned us about this stuff bro.
Title: Re: EVO2K
Post by: thisismyusername on July 13, 2013, 11:30:37 AM: :lol Well, I guess he could hunt down that person that cosplayed Rufus yesterday to sit behind them as he plays Makoto.

Still, good thing it's F2P. [strike]Milk[/strike] Tweak that shit then I will buy it.

Edit: teaser was ultra lame.

Post by: originalz on July 14, 2013, 09:58:21 PM: Holy shit, that last Wong vs. ChrisG UMvC3 was probably one of the best tournament series I've ever seen. I can't believe he pulled that off!

Heh, here's a good quote someone on SA said:

Quote
Change his name to Jesus Wong, cuz that man can rise from the grave.
Title: Re: EVO2K
Post by: bork on July 14, 2013, 11:00:46 PM: Wong didn't win it, but his climb back to the top was amazing and was the best part of Marvel, easily. Crazy shit!

Once again I doubt I'm gonna be able to see the end of SSF4. It's already 11 PM.

Post by: originalz on July 14, 2013, 11:07:31 PM: Wong pulled off so many miracle comebacks in the tournament, it's unreal. Almost did it again in the end, but I guess it has to run out eventually. Still an amazing tournament.

Yep, Marvel was pretty amazing this year. But Zero making me mad salty with all the Zeros I have to deal with when I play all the time.

Post by: originalz on July 15, 2013, 01:29:22 AM: Goddamn what a great event this year, so many epic matches. You can really see how the SF4 community has stepped up their game too, last year Infiltration just murdered everyone but almost all of the matches this year were close and exciting.

I liked this melee battle of shiek vs jigglypuff. 42-58 i think.

The next one was good too.

You can watch all of the last day here, skipping around to what matches look good. Most of them are probably worth watching, definitely from the final 4.

Never heard anything bad said about it, but there's not much of a community that's gonna be centered around old PS1 games.
