Out of context, this post seems homoerotic as gently caress.

KOF13 is really stacked, although everyone seems out of training. Stream's more stable now, too.

KOF13 stream is so poverty it hurts.

FWIW, back at Combo Breaker nobody gave a poo poo about KOF XIII. All the KOF players were either playing KOF XIV or 2002. The game doesn't seem to have staying power.


Every KOF that isn't 2002 is too slow to me.

Games are always gonna look their slowest when they first start coming out. Looking at early Marvel 3 matches, that game looked much slower than current matches.

This is true.

I'm surprised that Melty has had so much staying power.

Sure it's always been viewed as a "poverty game". But its hold that somewhat relevant status for over a decade.

Aww, Keoma is out. Pity, even though he's nowhere as close to the dominant force in SFV as he was in 4. Sucks that he only made it to EVO this year, after trying to go three years in a row.

I'm almost certain that Spooky started out as a Melty Blood streamer. It has power.

Spooby played my main in Melty, H-VSion. He was also pretty decent at the game.

Its had constant refinement through all the various versions, and yea, Spooky started out as a Melty streamer. He really helped raise its profile.
It also helps that the community for Melty is crazy devoted and will rep the game however they can.

Personally I'm just glad AACC got the steam release as before that the only way to legitimately get the latest PC version was through a crazy Japan-only Type-moon spinoff boxset!

Is he? Based on his tweets I thought he was 'done' since he had bought everything he wanted at the Daigo merch place.

It just goes to show if you don't want your game's scene to "die", you have to keep pushing and supporting it.

Shiki Dan posted:

Even XI is too slow. Though admittedly I don't remember much of it, so I could be wrong. I haven't played it in ten years. I do remember that it felt weird compared to other KOFs. Never played Maximum Impact.

He lost to Kay and Brick, because holy poo poo that was a mini-pool of death no one will give a gently caress about because it doesn't have Japanese or Americans.

Is there any place to see the brackets updated as people play? I know some pools already happened and I"m curious about results.

I found http://evo2016.s3.amazonaws.com/brackets/ as an official source but it's not getting updated.
