Does anyone have a link to the fchamp kbr match that was so humiliating, sounds like a good time

He's like 27 or so.
lol jesus that's way older than I thought, dudes going to be like Mike Tyson at the rate he's going, old man with a baby voice

Actually surprised nobody's taken a fall, claimed assault or requested an ejection for fchamp's physical bullshit to be honest, verbal heel poo poo, whatever, but touching people ain't ok

Gootecks is in a top 8 for SFV and so is Henry Cen. I love early-day SF.

Did I see Zangief jump in, then Laura DP to anti-air, and then Zangief air-throw the DP? Did I see that correctly?

Sm4sh is delayed right now because there's a wireless controller synced to the WiiU so there's always a third player who needs to select his character, and the guy who owns it is playing SFV right now so he can't desync it.

This is why you don't allow wireless controllers.

These Cannes announcers are driving me insane with how every round ending move is WHAT A MOMENT and OHHHHHHHHHHHH.

What an answer with that medium kick to counter his opponents walk forward walk backwards walk forwards tactic! OHHHHHHHH.

He was top 3 in Europe for most of SF4, including beating top asian players in grand finals.

He was probably the second best Sagat in the world in SF4 (after Bonchan). Not quite there in this game yet obviously.

I think people are avoiding playing "top tier", legit. Give it a couple of months.

Ryan Hart is arguably the best/most consistent SF4 player in EU. It's him, Luffy and Valmaster, and he also plays Tekken and VF at a high level.

Yeah, adjustment pains. I wouldn't judge skill from week 2 of play either, a lot of early standouts fade very quickly and some people are just faster learners.

Ryan hart was tweeting about how he couldn't connect to anyone online this week until he put his ps4 in the dmz while phenom has been number 1 on the online ranked ladder a few times since release. So yeah week 2 things

I only vaguely know who Mike Ross is and don't know the Henry guy so that doesn't mean much, but I'm guessing they fell off quickly

Both sticking with Honda probably had something to do with them going nowhere competitively. Incidentally Henry Cen is in top16 winners of Winter Brawl at the moment, playing a real character (Bison)
