Latif is getting ran over by Infiltration. Wow.

I guess this answers my question. Infiltration should finish the job with Hakan.

...why did SCR allow this to be streamed? This type of violence is unrated, man.

EDIT: Latif just sounds so sad. :smith:

Who thought a first to seven with Infiltration would be a good idea? Such a odd thing to close out a night.

I've been sick and for the first time in a while watched a lot of the scr today. Is street fighter 4 still the premier game, or is it Marvel vs Capcom now? I honestly found MvC3 way more fun to watch, though watching Infiltration murder the other guy may have spoiled street fighter a bit.

UMvC3 is the American favorite, but more international players play SF4. And yes I agree marvel 3 is way more fun to watch.

Master of the high hat!
Is there any chance that Infiltration will not take SCR this weekend? The only hope I have is Kbrad but considering how Infiltration lost to him a couple months back, I'm betting he studied the everliving gently caress out of that matchup and will probably shame him if it comes down to those two.

They're pretty equal, really. AE is more international and high-level matches are amazing displays of footsies and overall strategy, while Marvel is very American, crazier and flashier, the "hype" game to SFIV's "intellectual" thing. Sometimes one gets top billing over the other, but they're pretty much on the same status level.

Really wish they wouldn't allow the black character/black stage combos in P4A - it makes the game almost impossible to read as a relatively new player (as opposed to somewhat confusing but sorta readable).

They're only halfway through pools for AE and Marvel, so there should be plenty more good action tomorrow.

Brosnan posted:

gently caress you, you know drat well I'm not talking about ethnicity, I'm talking about the artistic representation of the characters. The colorshifts for P4A are literally every part of the character is tinted down to a 90%+ shade except for their eyes and when those characters move into parts of a stage that are shadowed, they completely vanish in many cases. Maybe it's a little more readable at the venue, but on a 720+ stream important, interesting normals like Teddie's bats or Chie overheads vanish.

Awesome Hakan from Infiltration though - really cool to see a joke character being used so effectively.

Also, drat, that's a bad matchup you wouldn't think it's a bad matchup at first glance. Sim gets bodied by a grappler.

He's top 16 at the tournament right now, I think. Rule of thumb is a bunch of people are decent to good in that game but if you're not Mexican (or Korean, I guess), you're not placing.
