It's regular Megaman with SF bosses and some new weapons they drop.

Mystery game tournament is fun and all, but worth shoving Injustice to the early morning slot? No.

Perhaps being Marvel Evo champ would have a little more prestige if the last two champs hadn't immediately stopped winning anything after their wins. At least for SF4 Infiltration is still the guy to beat.

$25K was the total prize pool for SF4, i.e. top 8, not 1st place.

Looks like it is individual views, as it was still rising after the matches were over. Current viewer count doesn't seem to be visible anywhere? What a great system.

NecroMonster posted:So then why would the game with the third most number of entrants be the second earliest? Because it's a game not exactly adored by the community, I assume they simply wanted to avoid stream monster rage by having it like this. PonchAxis posted:Also I can't believe they're going to stream MK Pools but no Persona or Tekken pools. Doesn't MK have like the smallest number of entrants? I think the guy running the srkevo2 stream is a dedicated MK/Injustice-streamer, so having only those two games there was probably a part of the deal.

brian posted:The FGC is the way it is because it's very hard to sponsor products to, although monitor manufacturers really should look into it more Then again it's pretty likely that people already have at least a 720p TV at home, which is all you need in the current gen. Also next gen for fighting games is already going to poo poo with KI being an exclusive title (and not even a timed exclusive) and Capcom not even working on anything.

Chin posted:Fighting games and LoL are apples and oranges. LoL's a game designed to be simple and easy at the player level and played with a team of people onto whom you can deflect blame when you lose. Almost all of the complexity and skill required are on the team coordination level. FGs are 1v1. All of the pressure's on the player and if they fail it's entirely their fault. It's just not as good of a format for growing a massive player base. Not sure why LoL was brought up, when StarCraft 2 is much better for comparisons sake. Similar to fighting games in that it's 1v1, not F2P and not easy to get into competitively, but has a large playerbase and prize pools (http://www.esportsearnings.com/games/1/starcraft_ii).

40 OZ posted:Is there any kind of indication of what the playerbase for SC2 is? That is, people who play 1v1 in any kind of tournaments? It seems really hard to get numbers on this, but usually it seems like there are 100x more "fans" and far less competitors in SC2. By playerbase I mean people who play the game in any form, online included.

I'd think EVO could get a few marketing departments interested for next year just with the power of their latest viewership numbers (1.7 million over the weekend). I'm not sure how actively they usually try to reach out to companies outside the usual FGC-related lineup (Capcom, MCZ, BT, AS etc.) though.

WCG is kind of a relic of the early 2000's though, most "esports" nowadays isn't really like that. DreamHack, which is live right now, is more representative: http://www.twitch.tv/dreamhacktv

Video X Games is starting to remind me of Cyber X Games, which was touted as "world's biggest esports event" but crashed and burned in spectacular fashion back in 2004. Actually the names are so similar I thought they were related (are they?).

brian posted:As self defeating and moronic as it is for the top players who want more money in the scene to act like they do, i'm incredibly tired of the people in this thread condoning the rule and the actions of spooky last night. It's not up to the players to ensure that spooky remains in business by keeping people watching streams entertained, just because he essentially promotes them as celebrity players does not mean that they are complicit in that arrangement, nor does it mean that they agree that it's adequate compensation for doing what he wants. If you want to change the culture at the top end of the american scene then become part of the top end of the american scene, otherwise what right does anyone to tell them what to do in the finals of tournaments they've earned their way to? TOs should stop focussing on enforcing arbitrary rules (honestly any rule that relies that heavily on TO discretion and is being forced on every tournament is dumb as gently caress) and start focussing on making their events have enough prestige that people won't want to piss about, either through it being a major event, through personal relationships with the players or through innovative bonuses (like the Civil War swords and the UFGT trophies). I wouldn't worry about it too much, judging from the fgc tweets most treat the collusion rule as a joke. If this happened at an event someone cares about (i.e. not VxG or NLBC) we might see a different reaction.

Lessail posted:How much of a personal relationship does Chris G have with spooky or any of the guys running NLBC? He didn't seem to care too much about that as a deterrent at all. NLBC is a weekly, held in an arcade, people don't show up there to think about sponsors and such. If you can't goof off in a weekly anymore then this scene is truly doomed.

AkumaHokoru posted:Who goofs off in grand finals? On stream? I haven't watched the actual match, but were they playing deliberately sloppy as well, or was it just the character choices? At least if the GF is Sanford vs Dieminion again I'd welcome a bit of off-charactering occasionally, provided they're still trying to win.

WalrusWhiskers posted:I'm not gonna buy it since I don't care about quality that much but I hope they let the archived footage be free. I get more pissed off when channels block off their archives to non-subscribers. Considering archived streams have ads etc. so they produce the same money as live views (and cost nothing, the archive is provided for free by Twitch), blocking them serves no purpose other than saying "oh you're from a different timezone and can't watch the event live? well gently caress you." Anyone doing it can go eat a dick.
