Browsing the streams, Tekken 7 show matches have packed audiences already while the others are looking pretty thin. Smash has the biggest Twitch viewercount but not many in the stands

You don't watch pools for quality and exciting matches, you watch it for blowups.

Jebailey's Balrog was scrubby as gently caress but he won, so I was entertained.

A F2P fighting game with LoL characters is something I would try out. I don't play LoL, but I like the character designs.

I bet they'd add a cooldown to specials, which is crazy.

I honestly don't hate the way GBVS does cooldowns, too bad the beta had stuck-in-custard tier walkspeed

SamSho pools are cool because people just get punished for 40% damage and explode.

This is something that I think about every year:

Sajam and UltraDavid sound exactly the same, right? Is that a regional accent or something

Sajam is more nasally (both are but sajam moreso) and wittier, david can make a joke but works better with a hype man. But it isnt a regional accent, david is from d.c. area I think

i didnt get to try the beta, but i didnt think it was too fun to watch GB. I hope it fleshes out more at release and I enjoy it some more!

What an amazing looking game though.

Main floor is loving crazy there is a HUGE cabinet of MVC2 at the arcade1up space everything is so loving hype lines for foods are pretty long but you can pretty much go anywhere in and around Mandalay for something quicker than being in the convention space. Way way better than when I first came here in 2016.

SFV and pools at that, but at least Yipes and Uncle Chen are keeping it entertaining.

Why does it feel like every time I look at the UNIEST stream it is either the commentators burning time between matches or an endless button check?

Because it's been about 50% downtime, idk why.

All supers are essentially cooldowns too when you think about it.
