I didn't know they were playing SFxT at these things, but it makes sense now that I think about it.

Rumors abound that Justin has some cheap stuff hidden away for SFxT for this weekend.

Also last night fchamp "accidentally" spilled the beans that Marvel would be coming to IPL for sure sometime in the first half of next year. Whether he was trolling or leaking illuminati info is anyone's guess.

You will not be surprised to learn that sfxt is the marquee even of the 25th anniversery tournament and the winner will be handed the keys to a street fighter themed car (the colors of street fighter are apparantly black and white).

Then they will have to ask someone to drive the car out of the parking lot for them since they probably don't have a US driver's license before calculating shipping costs to Japan or Korea and just selling the drat thing on craigslist.

It was very weird to hear that. Doesn't IPL have an 'exclusivity contract' on the games they've picked up? If so, does that mean there's gonna be a forced transition to esports for Marvel and other games?

Capcom is partnering with IPL on the condition that they play nice with the existing FGC (ex: IPL 6 will not have capcom games because it is the same days as Final Round). The exclusivity is only within eSports leagues.

Champ is also the guy that said there was definitely for sure going to be another iteration or major balance patch to Marvel 3 only a few months after Ultimate dropped.

In terms of leaked Capcom info, Champ is up there with Henry Cen in terms of making up bullshit or just spreading rumors.

Almost as crazy as that was the Bowser vs. Ganondorf rematch, with Bowser running a train over the eternal-defending heavyweight champion. Also everyone in chat getting pissed off and Bazza pointing out that their stats and AI routines were the same.

Really the whole night of events was wonderful in the exact campy way pro wrestling is. Ridiculous matches (Captain Falcon match where they threw about a dozen items in the ring at once and then never used them; ring collapsing, megaman running all over fools), campy video game references (the awesome music, Gruntilda guest appearance as commentator), the heel / drama show aspects (bazza-McMahon totally rigging a match against Zangief and then getting chased out of the ring by Simon Belmont I think it was), and the music during the last five minutes of Ganon's horrific demolishing by Koopa.

It's not a competitive fighting game but I think it's close enough to fit in this thread without being too much of a distraction. Plus it's awesome.

Side note, let's get some gifs and awesome match videos!

I like Dieminion's chances this time. Everybody was totally spent at Evo for various reasons on finals day except Infiltration and Gamerbee. The same thing ain't happening this time.

Today in the rumor mill:

Happy Medicine isn't going to SF25 because he is sick. Haunts just tweeted Justin for "Floe's contact information ASAP" and Justin said Matt (presumably Dahlgren from Capcom) had already got it. I'm on my phone so I can't easily link sources.

Edit: Floe has been announced as official replacement. If you have brackets in the SRK fantasy league, they are NOT changing the name.
