Fighting Games Weekly | February 25 - March 3 | Not here to talk about Street Fighter

This attitude just reeks of jealousy. Don't really see why it's anybody's responsibility to support what they have no interest in.
You never find anything new without getting your hands, feet... and sticks a bit dirty. Jealousy is a pretty strong word for Shouta's statement, I think. Lord knows I've seen and felt that emotion a few times over the last couple of years since MvC3/BlazBlue dragged me back into the genre.

Think "naivety" is a better word than "jealousy", the truth is that people want to pretend that their favourite fighting game is the best fighting game ever and everyone should support it, but problem is there are tens of fighting games that can be held in a tourney. And it's pretty naive to expect the FGC to support every of the fighting games. Time is limited, resources are limited, it's just not possible for someone to care much about the poverty Melty Blood/Skullgirls/VF5 when in the first place he would rather spend time playing LoL or COD than a fighting game.

Do you have an econ or poker/tcg background?
 
Schdmit can actually use Zero with missile. Rather impress... since Viscant and every other Zero is ass with Zero +HM.

If he use Jam Session he would be better than Flux already.

I secured the spot for 3rd stream at Final Round. If Larry says I gotta cover Melty Blood and Spooky/FunkyP get SF4 and Marvel, I'm still cool.

I agree with this, but it'd be nice if you could just leave the other stream on in the background. I try to do that nowadays even though I don't care for the games that are being played.

Congrats on getting the 3rd stream, I would look forward to it but I'm coming to. See you there man.
 
Against my better judgment, I went to Fanatiq's stream when I heard he was talking about Winter Brawl. Instead of answers, I hear him talk about dumb-as-fuck analogies about getting slapped and Del Taco.

Fool me once, etc.

EDIT: And naturally once I get answers, I get timed out because I'm not on Fanatiq's side.

If you want to get Enzo's attention you should rap it in RedRapper's voice. That will surely get his attention.

He'll just have to read this while imagining that voice:


We're all tasting from the fruit
of the Nishiyama tree
So why look down on the players
from ol' Orochinagi
South Town Osaka Paree
not just land of the free

Mahvel may have the US
but your posse's surrounded
Fires burnin' round the world
by mere log traps you're pounded

Takes a village for a child
takes a world for a scene
The whole planet saw the King
oh US where have you been?

Sudamerica Asia Arabia
and the Old Continent
The whole world can't be ignored
so now we star in your event

We're not greedy we can share
CvS was a stepping stone
We just ask we do us justice
and mention sites of own own

Now Dream Cancel may be fine
but it's America's hub
Welcome kiddo but you know
ON got here first, bub

Fifteen years through thick and thin
tell me that's not hardcore
Capcom can buy good campaigns
but our company's poor

Never dropping your true focus
through bankrupcy and glory
Tell what game without Ryu
can survive through such a story

And I don't mean Hayabusa
DoA is listed twice?
NeoGAF needs better info
some completion would be nice

All I'm saying as a fan
Rather firmly but meekly
Orochinagi needs a mention
in the Fighting Games Weekly

There's a difference between not being interested in and actively shitting on something.

I hope addMitt gets the opportunity to stream more majors in the future. He was a last-second replacement after sp00ky dropped out of SBA (or some other major in the Ohio area), and his stream was amazing quality and seldom dropped unlike the secondary-turned-main stream.

I honestly think the best streamers in the FGC are LevelUp. They produce a great show; but their production is very different from that of a low level streamer such as me. I am one guy, running a stream out of the back of his car, stretching my limited funds as far as I can go for quality. LevelUp is an entire production crew, with a dozen person staff, production level cameras and NewTek TriCasters. I imagine most east coast event organizers would not be able to hire LevelUp due the cost of employing that many people.

Also, what is EV?

Just to clarify this. The SCR stream had 3 people working on it. I wish we had a full production staff or even just some helpers T_T

you know what's really fucked up, he never even told me. i found out a while ago and was just waiting for the news :/
 
Sorry I'm not a creepy old man XD
You're a creepy young man.

Louisiana top 5?

Shit I gotta represent now!

NOT!

EC and Norcal are favorites because they got 2 gods each. Should be fun watching the other regions battle it out. Since its an exhibition tourney I fully expect Yipes to be in casual set mode so I give the edge to EC.
It's top 5 so you don't have to worry about getting called in.

wow

Chris Schmidt's Magneto tech is fuckin insane

He is the best Magneto by far

Schmidt said he would beat Chris G 10-0
Everyone says they'll beat ChrisG until they play him.

Good for him.
