Smug has a much better chance than snake tbh, snake just has not been doing too well against the Japanese players of late. He is even losing to players like Nuckledu and Chris Tartarian recently, maybe it's the nerfs to Gief mixed in with the buffs to Ken and Guile, but it is what is. I'm pretty happy with the choice.
Last big tournament, Smug should have beaten Momochi but dropped his combo (which is rare for him).
Snake might not be able to beat any of those players in a ft5 lol (not including Smug)
Maybe Luffy
If you knew how pay-per-view streams worked on Twitch, you would understand why no one uses Twitch for that. It's very easy to work around Twitch's stream paywall.Why can't Topanga use twitch? I would give them money. Topanga needs to stop being so Japan-centric or Niconico needs to become more world-friendly.

I don't think they're losing a ton of money over it, to be honest. Yeah the fact that it's broken as it is sucks, but they also have a ton of other engineering issues (things like how god awful their web player is, or how bad archives currently are), mainly due to their growth outrunning their ability to keep up. Even if they did fix that, Their biggest streams wouldn't go to pay-per-view, although it might introduce some new PPV events, as it can work (and Topanga is probably of the best examples of that). Specifically with Topanga, I also suspect that they have a business arrangement with NicoNico (so you're more likely to see it on NicoNico's global site, if anything).Sounds like Twitch is leaving a lot of money on the table. Someone should ask Mike when he's gonna get that fixed
Gizmo is the best.

Anyways I'm glad we have this right after NCR and Hypespotting. I thought we were going to have 2 weekends with nothing to watch until Northwest Major. But this nicely fills in part of the gap.
Will we be able to watch outside of Japan tho? Let us pray
I managed to watch Topanga World from last year with the help from a guy(goes by forgenjuro) who is staying in Japan. He's friends with USD and help her get a ticket and he helped me when I asked USD who then asked him. I think he actually did commentary with Zhi at the USF4 TGS tourney last year. But anyways, I have no idea what to do this year unless we get some assistance.
.Wouldn't mind doing a private GAF stream either if I could get a account and one of us can stream it. That's what I did last year with Kadey streaming it, hardly anybody got on to watch it though. Saying this won't get me banned will it Shouta? I was just kidding if it does

Forgenjuro is the guy that runs Team Black Eye I.e. Nemo, Abegen, Takumi, Dora, Ao, KBR, etc.
Okay, here's something that's been buggin' me for a minute:
who the hell is "Tru3ta1ent"???

I agree. Smug has not yet reached his final form.Smug going to Topanga World is great for him. I don't really expect him to win it or honestly place well, but instead just get a HUGE amount of much needed experience with international players. This is going to be an incredibly huge opportunity for him to experience something super unique. Money matches are one thing, but this is a totally different environment and a great opportunity.
Even if he places last in the event, he's already won because of the knowledge and experience he can get from just being there. That's awesome for him.
shoulda sent yung artSmug gonna get bopped. Die or Ricky should had gone.
pretty good online bison player. major dark souls/bloodborne streamer. has a snazzy hat.
