Omnikin posted:So fwiw so far The Jump Off seems to be SF5 live and replayed matches. Not that I'm complaining but I thought it would be a bit more varied They showed two SF matches and then went to Smash. They're showing all the games, just not jumping around immediately after every single one.

Goddamn that's a powerful top 8. e: also the extremely intense commentator guy seems to be loosening up in real time so either he was just super nervous of doing a top 8 or doing a thing on purpose Veib fucked around with this message at 22:28 on Jul 15, 2017 |

Both Nage and Omito have gotten 2nd, neither of the guys they lost to are there this time, one of those two is gonna win this thing.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:I think I might try Guilty Gear when I get back to my PS4 in the fall, I saw the tutorial modes and it seems to actually have the tutorials that people who say "Fighting games should have better tutorials" are asking for It totally does and it still got 1/3 the entrants SFV did, and also less than either T7 or Injustice, so it's almost as if the existence of great tutorials is not actually a thing that matters when it comes to popularity.

Omito is so loving sick. Like he didn't lose a single game there, no way he's losing 6 to anyone in grand finalsDias posted:Also the gently caress is Leo he just presses buttons. That's exactly what he is and why I hate playing against him. Every move looks the same and things just happen.

You know, I was wondering if those Brook 360 -> PS4 converters were any good and well there are now two of those simultaneously on Evo main stage in winners so I guess they're ok.

Ventana posted:It's not just chun, it's also that Morrigan/Phoenix is just a really good shell itself. fchamp tried to use this shell too but he sucked at morrigan so he couldn't use it very well. Chun and morrigan having their own TAC infinites helps a lot too (don't remember if phoenix had one). Alioune was playing Magneto/Morrigan/Phoenix at some point which seemed good but France isn't exactly known for their Marvel scene so he never really got anything done in US tournements.

So looking at past winners the only characters to win multiple Marvel finals are Phoenix Morrigan Doom Vergil Haggar all at 2. Fchamp played Phoenix in the tournament and even in top 8 which brings her to 3, but not in the grand finals set itself.

I thought most of the original BBCT characters were super boring, there's bootleg Sol/Ky/Pot, a robot samurai, gothic lolita vampire, that guy from Spirited Away, and Literally Just Strider From Strider, but I actually like some of the newer ones even thought I very much prefer GG.
