I don't know why Tokido felt the need to break Punk's psychology like that.

The taunt and the Raging Demon really weren't necessary. Karin was already in a stun/dizzy state, surely there were other moves or combos he could perform.
>>
Doubt Melee will appear, Mr.Wiz seems to be getting really tired of their shit. They had a saturday spot so they couldn't screw anyone else up but they still had to announce "All top 8 to stage now" multiple times. They are really playing into the stereotype of being difficult to work with, they got sent to the retard corner this year and still screwed everything up.

Tokido with his adjustment and comebacks against FChamp, Nuckledu, Kazunoko, Itazan and finally Punk singlehandedly saved SFV top 8.

It shows that even at top level, UNGA BUNGAs and coasting through on autopilot is the way to go. Only at the very very highest level, in which so far only Tokido and Nuckledu has shown to be capable of adjusting midmatch that room for strategy in SFV exists.

I went back to SFV after EVO finals and the game were just as shit and frustrating as always online. It sucks when you have no offline sparring partner.

Yes DBFZ will be there, but so will GGXrdRev2.
This year had less of a change to feature GG than next year. Rev2 was a mini add-on DLC and that was already enough, I'm sure ArcSys will have a major announcement next EVO related to GG's future, meaning that we might even see it on the main stage.

There are plenty of Flavor of the month fighters that will be out before GG ever loses its spot.

You know DBZ had a tournament this year, right?

>>384300316
How does that prove me wrong? The team behind GG will be busy until DBFZ's launch, at best they'll release 1 more character for GGRev2 (there's a suspicious "hidden" spot letf in the roster selection screen, between Slayer and Venom) but nothing major will be announced for GG before Q1 2018, which is when EVO Japan happens.
EVO 2018 is at a perfect time slot for a major announcement

>>384300539
I was so glad Top8 had 8 different characters (None of which were fucking Zato-1 or Millia). I was even rooting for UNGA because it was so strange to see Leo that high up. But sadly the fun characters died out fast. I really wanted 310 to take it. Fuck Raven.

All Evo did remind me of how rng SF5 has become. Tokido barely won the tournament while others who are usually pretty good lost the game to one read. SF5 almost feels similar to marvel, now. The whole offensive, little defense, guess or eat a throw or CC is a stupid mechanic for the sake of making your game more watchable to esports. Esports killed fighting games.

It's not really rng. There's more mixups now but the best players still consistently win. Punk was putting up nearly perfect records in nearly every final he entered including Evo, but Tokido just got into his head.
>>
>>384302487
Tokido vs fchamp was the best match of the top8

Tokido's philosophy is that at high levels you're no longer playing the game, you're playing your opponent.

>>384298180

Evo makes most of its money through sponsors, Nintendo doesn't care and no 3rd party accessory maker cares enough to sponsor melee.
While most other games have their devs, fight stick makes, etc throwing money at evo.
Smash4 has a chance as long as Nintendo sticks with it, but Evo has nothing to gain for keeping Melee. It was only brought back after it won the charity drive.
>>
>>384302559
Thats cause Punk had a 80% or more ROI on his poking normals (which Tokido punished him for in the first place with neutral normals into Akuma's stupid combos). Karin is one of the best characters in the game because she has all the ground options necessary to dominate in a game with limited aerial domination. Whether Karin carried Punk is another matter, but she's not a hard character to win with. You have to work more with other characters.

>there was a short window post-EVO where people were just happy to play fighting games

It's not even the FGC that's the problem. There's an entire community of faceless online warriors who think they could play at pro level if only they tried, but instead of putting money where their mouth is and risk exposure they hide in the shadows and talk shit like a bunch of pussies. Then there's the fighting game equivalent of TORtanic shitposters who simply get off to watching something fail. Finally, we have fans of "rivaling" fighting games who think if they shittalk the competition hard enough people will come flocking their own dead games. It's a giant shit sandwich that makes it hard to discuss fighting games online altogether. Even Lowtiergod came back humble after EVO, why can't you?

If only those tards would get cancer.

How fucking new to fighting games are most of you fags? SF always has a shit vanilla version that just shows off the new idea. The whole reason of buying vanilla is to get in on the ground floor and have a solid foundation.

Second edition of a Street Fighter introduces a new mechanic and fixes the majority of the vanilla problems into a refined, solid fighter.

Third edition solidifies the gimmick and becomes the hype monster of pure fighting game.

All the ground options... except for a good anti-air.

And Punk didn't just win with her, he absolutely dominated. Punk has had multiple tournaments where he's gone 8-1 in top 8. You can't explain that with "hurr, Karin is OP" because she is by no means the best in the game.

anti air means shit in this game. In fact. you can fix that easily with one jab or neutral jump air to air. Karin's weaknesses in AA is like saying a tank cant fight against a plane, except it can.

SF4 vanilla was still a fun as fuck game to play. I can't even bring myself to play SFV anymore, it's just not a very fun game.
The infuriating part of that SF4 was the online, Sagat, Rufus and getting over the shock that they actually included shortcuts and ultras into the game.

And I honestly have no faith in Capcom anymore. They've gone full greed mode with SFV. And MvCI looks to be the same shit. Fuck capcom.
>>
>>384302538
BB top 8 had good matches initially and then got slow around the middle, but by the time Grand Finals came around it was pretty damn amazing. Fenrich vs Ryuusei was my favorite match this year.

Don't play Karin, but pretty sure she doesn't have a jab anti-air. And neutral jump+air-to-air takes WAY more frames than a simple crouching MP or whatever. You would pretty much need to guess at that point, factoring in input lag.

It's scary to see how insane the situation got with SF5, really. I can't go 5 minutes talking about the game without someone rehashing the typical complaints or telling me to play Guilty Gear. Some will tell you to play Tekken of all things, and the only possibility more absurd than that would be someone suggesting Smash as the superior game.

Let's just ignore everything that makes each of these games a very particular experience catered to different crowds.

There'll definitely be at least Smash 4 there, especially in the likely scenario that Nintendo announces a Smash game for Switch between now and then, possibly even at the event (be it a Smash 4 "deluxe" port or Smash 5.) Melee being cut would make sense from a few angles (and Nintendo might finally just force it) but it also still pulls in a shitload of viewers and entrants (it had the third-highest number of participants after Smash 4 and SF5, though I do wonder how many of those overlap with Smash 4) so I can see it sticking around.

I'd put SFV at 8/10 or 9/10 honestly. The match wasn't all that great, it was mostly just the things surrounding it, which isn't bad, but it didn't have many nailbiters or things like that to make it more exciting beyond that.
>>
>>384304759
Nope. The game is vaporware. They want capcom to publish it and even give it the SF brand, but I doubt it's happening.
>>
>>384291873
Not even close.
Best Evo was probably 2015.

I enjoyed this year, because I watched a lot of sidestreams. Then I made the mistake to watch GG top8 with friends and they invited a screaming autist. GG top8 was pretty boring and a sperg yelling didn't make it any better.

I think you are right and DBF&BBX will replace GG and BB. EX won't be included. The rest will be the usual suspects.

>>384297850
I'm so happy UMvC3 is over. The game is done. It's great that the game got a last Evo, but I don't want to see Morridoom or ZeroMayCry ever again. Fuck Vergil, fuck Zero, fuck Doom missile assist.

I'm seeing a pattern that behind every successful champion is a world class tier training partner with JDCR/Saint, Infiltration/Fuudo, Tokido/Mago/Daigo, and if you want to count them in, FChamp/Ricki. It is not enough to be really good online warrior

I'm pretty surprised at how well Blazblue Central Fiction turned out. Its grand finals was almost as good as the 2014 Evo GF of BBCP. It's been a while since there were matches that timed out but maintained that entertainment and suspense.

My only disappointment with its top 8 was that Dora didn't believe in his Bang. I certainly don't blame him and I think it was a smart choice to stay with Mu, but it would've been more respectable to either win or go down with the character he's known for.

Smash numbers are fake, the late night peak was from people who wanted more EVO and all that was left was the tournament that always runs two hours late because of "guessies".
On the other hand, Tekken is super exiting to play, but the tension really doesn't translate on screen like it does in SF or KoF. There's no "DONT WAKE DADDY" moments in Tekken, as much as I love it, it's rather boring to watch.

Esports has ruined every genre it touched. The RTS is dead and replaced with shit like LoL, the Arena FPS is dead and now we have Overwatch; CS is at least tolerable. Fun innovative genres with low skill floors and high school ceilings like Rocket League don't get nearly the money or viewership they deserve.

Fuck, esports even ruined Smash as far as the community goes. I've been playing competitively since like 2010 and the difference in attitude between the pre-EVO2013/Documentary players and the post-EVO/Doc players is staggering. There's such a sense of entitlement and an active vitriol toward other games from these idiots who grinded out how to wave shine and suddenly think they're good.

I guarantee, the people bitching about no Melee at EVO Japan are the ones who are either living off the game now or who bandwagoned after the game got popular. Every player I know who joined before 2013 loves traditional fighters too and recognizes that Melee doesn't need a spot at EVO anymore. They love the game and play it because they love it, not because it's some dick waving contest and they need to flex, or because they decided to stake their livelihood on a fucking game. And then if they're not good enough to even make top 8 at a local, they dick ride top players to win tournaments vicariously. Fuck Doc kids.

I got off track, the point is that esports is a plague. The ironic thing is that in trying to design games around a hardcore competitive audience, they've had to dumb things down and pander to the lowest, laziest tier of player incapable of putting even the slightest effort forward to improve so that even they can pretend to be competitive and give all their good goy bucks to the developers. Esports killed competitive games in practice and in spirit.

When he switched to Bang against the first Arakune, I thought he made a mistake and should've stayed with Mu. He managed to somehow clutch it out, which shows that anything could happen.

But that's just it, that win against Arakune was more of a fluke despite playing well. Both players dropped their spaghetti at the end of the match and the Arakune player lost because of it. It was practically dumb luck, which probably scared him from trying that shit again.

So I don't blame him. I just wanted him to believe.

Japs traditionally dominate the Street Fighter scene because their pros trained in arcades, allowing them to practice with many other players on a regular basis, and they also usually got a multi-month head-start on the western players due to the game releasing there first.
Since Street Fighter V never released in arcades, however, Americans are starting to catch up, with an American winning CapCup 16 and another reaching Evo 17's Grand Finals. Tokido largely won this year's Evo due to having match-up experience against Karin, and the American cracking under the pressure.

As for ZeRo, yeah fuck him lol

All the best players were there
>>
>>384319285
Thats really not a good excuse though. When you have real killers like Machaboo, Omito, Zadi, Samitto and the rest of the Mikado players at Evo, it doesnt really matter if Hase, FAB, Lox or the rest cant come. The US have shown they've shown theyre putting work at what they do.
>>
>>384319424
>tfw FAB isn't considered a top player anymore
>>
>>384319561
Reddit dodged a bullet with FAB. They were all in on sponsoring FAB but he couldnt make it so they got Tomo instead. FAB is entertaining but he always folds in Evo. Reddit got mileage out of Tomo and is a good precedent for future sponsorships
>>
>>384319726
I hate UNGA tho
>>
>>384319561
It depends on your definition of top players. Is it winning tournaments? Just placing well? Being well-known? FAB is mostly known because he's the best Potemkin, not because he wins tournaments.
>>
>>384319914
Now, Tomo may use Leo but everything he does with him are all well calculated and optimal. You dont even see him pull gimmicky online shit like Knockdown > Shield shield like what Tasty Steve and Jiyuna does. Tomo takes a dumb character and plays intellegently

ARMS is already confirmed for the Japanese EVO happening in January. You can bet that it will also make its way to the main event.

I wouldn't take Japanese EVO as much indication of EVO EVO.
>>
>>384320113
Sounds more like they're testing the waters.
ARMS doesn't even have a competitive ruleset yet and the community is still figuring out what to allow or not allow and the logistics for running tournaments.

I'm sure the LTG thing has been an act so he can pay bills.

Because it's in between CPT seasons. The season ends on Capcom Cup in December and doesn't pick back up until February. Gives the players some time off from traveling every other week.

Not even being sarcastic, this was suppose to be USA's year to win Street Fighter in EVO. This was US' biggest chance, the players were looking so strong.

Will US get a chance ever?

>this was suppose to be USA's year to win Street Fighter in EVO
Based on what? Sure it was USA's biggest chance but there wasn't a sure win thing in guess fighter V
>>
I'm having a hard time narrowing it down, so here's the games I feel have a great shot at being at 2018 EVO.

- Street Fighter V
- Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite
- Dragon Ball FighterZ
- Guilty Gear Xrd R2
- BlazBlue Centralfiction (BB/P4/UNiB/RWBY won't be ready imo)
- Pokkén DX
- Tekken 7
- King of Fighters XIV
- Melee
- Smash 4 (Wii U/Switch)
- Injustice 2

2018 is going to be a rough year for fighting games to try and get a spot amongst the main games. I love it.
>>
pure's jack-o playing was fucking garbage
>>
>>384322019
Evo is big sure but it's not the main stage anymore for SF and hasn't been since 2013.

nuckledu is the reigning SFV world champ.
>>
>>384322987
Evo is still more prestigious than Capcom cup. The latter only claim is having a bigger prize pool. Even GG is more prestigious than Capcom cup.
>>
>>384318120
>a semi kinda real fighting game.

If street fighter isn't a true fighting game than what is?
>>
>>384322582
>BB/P4/UNiB/RWBY

Damn son. Everyone is calling it "Blazblue Crossover" verbally. I think the notation is going to end up being "BBxTB".
>>
>>384322987
Well I think EVO is held as the bigger title because:
1. It's the original
2. You have to fight through thousands of players
3. Capcom Cup is just 16 players or whatever

The person who wins EVO is just indisputably the best.
>>
>>384319394
Who do you play?
>>
>>384323153
Honestly it should be BBCTB to fit the Blazblue series naming convention
>>
>>384323110
>GG

I'm pretty sure you don't mean Guilty Gear. Which tournament is that?
>>
>>384323203
Capcom Cup is a 32 player closed tournament. You literally have to win a major to get a guaranteed ticket. The rest have to compete against the entire pro circuit for the point qualifier invites. Even then the seeds are based on Capcom Pro Tour rankings.

Capcom Cup is the grand finals of an 8 month tournament.
>>
>>384321524
>>384321305
>>384321214
i'm pretty sure this is just due to lack of communication between evo japan organizers and Capcom, they can make evo japan the tournament that starts cpt but i guess capcom wants to see how well the event does first before doing it

Almost all of those games are shoe ins for 2018 EVO

The only games listed that have any chance of being dropped from EVO are Injustice 2, Melee and KOFXIV. And even then those games are more likely to be included than not.

>>384323745
KOF is the Asia ticket. Chink money is too good to pass on.

Sunday next year, in order:
-BB crossover
-Tekken 7
-DBFZ
-MVCI
-SF5
>>
>>384327418
BB crossover won't be finished by next year. And even if it did it wouldn't take the Sunday slot from Centralfiction
>>
>>384327560
Considering most of Cross Tag Battle will be reused assets, it's very possible for it to be finished within the year.

Also, do you really think Centralfiction would remain at Evo when it has to compete against a crossover involving Blazblue, Persona, UNIEL, and RWBY, that will largely have the same playerbase as Blazblue? Get real.
>>
>>384323480
Not buying it senpai

The same way you can get a lucky bracket at Evo, you can get majors that don't have all the top players in attendance. The latter is guaranteed, actually, given the global reach of the game.

Since Evo is an open tourney that everyone around the world attends you have to be the best to win. Even a rigged bracket will only get you so far.
>>
>>384327560
>it wouldn't take the Sunday slot from Centralfiction


Do you really think BBCF is coming back? It had a pathetic number of entrants and the only reason it was on Sunday was because ArcSys paid money so they could advertise BBX.

Unless ArcSys throws money I doubt BBX is going to be there. BB simply doesn't have a community and SFV is still going strong, MvCI will be big regardless of hate, Tekken is doing good, NRS always does better than BB, Smash is still strong, and GG is bigger than BB. Maybe you can take over KOF, but you have to compete with Pokken and maybe KI or Fighting Layer EX.

Blazblue simply doesn't have a fanbase and BBX will most definitely have the same poor showing as BBCF.

The best in the world Infiltration went 0-2 at Capcom cup. Also LI Joe best in America for his evo placing. Even though he wasn't close to qualifying for Capcom Cup.

EVO is a qualifier for Capcom Cup and Capcom Cup happens at the end of a series of tournaments including EVO for a reason. It's the playoffs.
>>
>>384330405
>KI is dead, it's deader than BB

This is a lie seeing how it still has a bigger showing in majors/regionals and has it's own world cup with a larger showing than the ArcSys Cup.

Oh, come the fuck on. You can't seriously believe yourself with these hyperbole. BlazBlue has a dedicated community, having less numbers than other games at EVO doesn't make the community near to non-existent. The numbers are pretty consistent too compared with the last time BB was at EVO.
