In for SFV... lets do this!

 

[too much eslim]

Can't wait for the KI tournament

 

[Shun]

Killer Instinct is now live, after KI will be the Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 7 on 7 side tournament.

Street Fighter V is also now live

 

[Shun]

From what my friend is saying at KSB, it should be up in 2 hours since they're rescheduling these first coupe hours for casuals and to showcase the game for attendees at Osaka.

I am updating tournament progress and when each stream is up and the results of each tournament in the KSB 2016 tournament thread. In the mean time you can follow the brackets to see familiar names you may know.

The other games are live and are on schedule.

Tournament Brackets and Results are in the OP.

 

[Emerson's Essentia]

Is it me, or does it seem like Japan is markedly behind the US in SFV right now?

 

[lupinko]

Is it me, or does it seem like Japan is markedly behind the US in SFV right now?

Japan doesn't play on console, low PS4 sales, no arcade version for SFV, etc...

 

[Emerson's Essentia]

Oh, trust me, I know all the reasons - I just wanted to make sure the level of play I was perceiving wasn't just me.

 

[JayEH]

Is it me, or does it seem like Japan is markedly behind the US in SFV right now?

You mean overall or in terms of top players? Because the top japanese players still wipe the floor with US players.

 

[Sixfortyfive]

Is it me, or does it seem like Japan is markedly behind the US in SFV right now?

We just normally don't see average Japanese pot monsters.

 

[Shun]

KOF14 Tournament will be starting soon now that the period for gameplay exhibition and casuals is over.

 

[Shun]

Right now A Block is being streamed and it is Hirakata Vice vs Indo for KOF14.

 

[JayEH]

Sylvie's animations are so goofy how can you hate on her.

 

[Edgeward]

Arturo getting bopped by Mov

 

[Sayad]

This Choi! :s

 

[Edgeward]

Arturo is guaranteed 4th now in SFV. Good fucking shit

 

[Shun]

KOF14 Best 16

Midareneko vs Tarebouzu

Providing twitter handles for the players that I recognize.

 

[Edgeward]

KOF14 Best 16

Midareneko vs Tarebouzu

Providing twitter handles for the players that I recognize.

Much appreciated

 

[Shun]

Glay Teru vs Kantoku

 

[JayEH]

RIP good K'.

 

[Edgeward]

That Vice raw super did a fuck ton of damage

 

[Shun]

RIP good K'.

He was up against Kantoku who is a pretty known KOF player.

Glay Teru was pretty close tho.

 

[Shun]

Now is B Block Top 8.

Gosyo vs Cabbage

We're getting down to KOF veterans left in the bracket.

A lot of familiar names showing up now.

 

[Edgeward]

Man, this is some annoyingly awesome Athena play

 

[dragonflys545]

KOF looking fun as fuck (Please have amazing netcode)! I need this game! Must have my Clark Still!

 

[Xevren]

Really enjoy watching KOF, game looks pretty dope.

 

[Shun]

Man, this is some annoyingly awesome Athena play

Yeah Cabbage has been playing for a long time, competitively since at least 2003.

 

[jediyoshi]

 

[JayEH]

Here comes athena lol. He was just messing around with nelson first round.

 

[chrono01]

That Athena. O_O

 

[Edgeward]

How long is the wait for more KOF?

 

[biosnake20]

Harumy

edit: WAIT SP00KY IS MOVING TO THE PHILIPPINES? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Shun]

How long is the wait for more KOF?

They're taking a break before Best 8 for both brackets.

They're combining them right now

 

[Shun]

They;re starting now

KOF14 Best 8

Kantoku
Cabbage
Fat Yashiro
Tarebouzu
K2
Jai
Duck
Jam

First match is K2 vs Tarebouzu

 

[Shun]

Now is Kantoku vs Fat Yashiro

 

[KidA Seven]

Oh, trust me, I know all the reasons - I just wanted to make sure the level of play I was perceiving wasn't just me.

Japan average level is most likely stronger, but they don't all compete in the same tourney. Daigo, tokido, mago, nemo, haitani, sako, bon, dashio, santarou, etc... aren't at ksb. Plus, some of the top players at ksb aren't even shown on stream.

 

[bloodyroarxx]

Harumy

Oh geez, I didnt know xsplit was based out of there.

Really though? that must be a well paid job for him to relocate.

 

[Edgeward]

Oh geez, I didnt know xsplit was based out of there.

Really though? that must be a well paid job for him to relocate.

He wouldn't elaborate but he said the company set him up with a nice place.

 

[Shun]

Up now is Jai vs Duck

 

[bloodyroarxx]

He wouldn't elaborate but he said the company set him up with a nice place.

Good for him I guess then, guess LevelUp is going to be the go to guy for streaming now?

 

[Shun]

Now is Jam vs Cabbage

After this is Best 4

 

[Edgeward]

Athena is back to destory

Good for him I guess then, guess LevelUp is going to be the go to guy for streaming now?

Most likely. Only other one is Arturo.

 

[Shun]

Best 4

Fat Yashiro vs Tarebouzu

Cabbage vs Jai

 

[Edgeward]

Jesus, he can play Athena as a rushdown so well too

 

[Shun]

Finals

Tarebouzu vs Jai

3rd place Cabbage vs yashiro

 

[chrono01]

Goodbye Cabbage and his waifu team.

Edit: Never mind, not yet! Not sure why he tired his Athena though...

Edit #2: Never mind, there we go. His Athena too strong.

 

[K.Sabot]

unrelated to KSB, but the international guys traveling out to KSB went to an acho 5v5 for XRD-R and are currently waiting in grand finals.

https://www.twitch.tv/neoam_acho

Svampen Jack-O from sweden just took out Nage to get there.

 

[KidA Seven]

Sfv at ksb was a blow up.

 

[K.Sabot]

Dream died to Machaboo in grand finals rip.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Sfv at ksb was a blow up.

what happened?

 

[jbug617]

How was the stream numbers yesterday? It was at 6k when I fell asleep

what happened?

not enough stream time if I had to guess. Art said he recorded most of the off stream matches.
