Considering Nintendo is an official sponsor now, that announcements period after Smash better be a new character reveal.

I see the Tournament of Legends finals, but I do not see the rest of the Tournament of Legends.

Is that also ending up on CapcomFighters or am I just poo poo out of luck for wanting to see some good ST?

In the past damdai has run a stream for ST. Its not official so it won't be on the schedule but keep an eye out for it.

There's also one (or two?) recording setups so those videos should be posted after Evo.

I asked this question a month or so ago but nobody answered, so I'll ask again now that we're closer to the event.

Is the EVO premium subscription worth it? Was the HD stream actually nice and did it run well the whole time?

I thought it was very solid last year, but your experience is dictated by the CDNs near you and how overloaded they are at any given moment.

Note that according to the ST Revival schedule the Evo Main Stage ST event on Saturday is going to be Top 8 of X-Mania US (single elim team tournament) and not TOL Finals. Doesn't look like TOL will be on the main stage at all, Top 32 (winners of the pools running that day plus previous qualifiers and japanese invites) will start at 4 PM Friday and will be streamed on Arkadeum.

Here's the lineups for both TOL and X-Mania - http://www.strevival.com/evo2014pools/

When it worked it was good but it lagged some. Twitch has proved a lot in the last year so who knows how it will perform. Evo is going on at the same time as the International for Dota2 so we'll see how the servers hold up.

The International is the weekend after EVO.

Edit - Nope, I'm wrong, that's just the main event. Playoffs are happening at the same time as EVO, I hope that doesn't cause problems.

II was at Evo 2003-04 and SBO 2003, III was at SBO 2007, IV was at Evo 2009, and V was at Evo 2012 and SBO 2012. 2003 and 2009 were won by French players, as they've always had a strong Soul Calibur scene.

What is the state of Marvel nowadays? I personally feel like that game has dropped from everyone's radar, but I really don't know.

If the hype has really run out of gas for it, would it be crazy for Capcom to drop another iteration? Has Capcom kept up support anywhere on the same level that it has for Street Fighter?

Capcom no longer has the Marvel license they cannot do this.

As for the other stuff, who cares.

So.... I've been chatting with some friends about Street Fighter a great deal and one of them mentioned that it would be hilarious to hear me do match commentary. Personally I'm a big fan of James Chen and Ultradavid's rapport, but I don't mind the more explicitly hype-minded commentators either. I don't have encyclopedic move-list or frame data knowledge but I kind of want to give it a try - any advice?

Go find some NLBC or WNF tournaments on twitch or youtube, mute the sound, and practice your own commentary over it. See what happens.

Try to find a balance between professionalism, hype, and being entertaining. Also prepare for tons of critics because you can't ever make everyone happy.
