CROSS ASSAULT II: FLUFF HARDER
That was the most brutal download since Wong did the same to the dude from Norcal twice, whos name I'm forgetting ATM.
This was almost the Mine/JWong from NCR9 all over again. :lol
Once you hit 3-4 games in a set, MarlinPie's download completes. I don't think it'll be that free, but I still think its largely in MarlinPie's favour. MarlinPie is always favored in sets because he has the greatest amount of anti-bullshit tech of any player in Marvel.Champ is so gonna get bodied by Marlinpie so bad.

Fanatiq has said before that F Champ knows how to play money matches and even he is afraid to challenge F Champ to a money match. It seems likely too that F Champ will drop Phoenix and play Mag/Dorm/Doom against Marlinpie, since Marlinpie has too much anti Phoenix tech. So I won't bet on Marlinpie if I were you.
Just because Champ drops his Phoenix team doesnt mean he suddenly can compete. Anti-bullshit =/= anti-Phoenix. MarlinPie has FChamps number already.Fanatiq has said before that F Champ knows how to play money matches and even he is afraid to challenge F Champ to a money match.

Without hesitation, I give MarlinPie advantage. I cant even say FChamp is bad because he's arguably one of the best, but MarlinPie has been leveling up his game recently from already being one of the best as well.

So Marlin Pie auto loses if he isnt playing against phoenix?

i Kombat-people,
This year's interest in Evolution is blowing the doors off every other year. Though we try to book the largest hotel ballrooms available in Las Vegas, this year there is a real threat of more people attending EVO than can fit in the event hall. We cannot risk the entire event by the fire marshall shutting us down when we're over capacity, so we are only selling enough passes to fill our maximum capacity.
At the time of this posting, EVO is over 90% full! This means if you haven't registered yet, you're at grave risk of being shut out of the event. Once we reach 100% capacity, we will shut down registration entirely, so please register ASAP if you plan on attending. If you wait till June (or even next week), it will probably be too late.
Here's the link to the registration page:

TLDR: Register for EVO now or risk missing the cutoff.
Thanks,

Pretty good point right here. MarlinPie only really loses when he gets mindfucked enough to sacrifice his Viper, and that's through relentless offense. Or, alternatively, you play SSS-Tier blocking like Wong would do.As someone who watches a fair amount of FGTV streams.... Champ won't beat Marlin.
Marlin plays completely different than a Pr Balrog, Shady K, Ricky O or any other player Champ trains with. Not only that but the other Viper he plays Chrisis, Drew Grimey, and Kbeast plays completely different than Marlin.
Honestly you either gotta have Justin Wong/Chris G blocking or Josh Wong/Mihe offense to beat Marlin. Champ is so solid all around but he doesn't excel at either one.
You put significant weight on an anecdote of FChamp preparing for money matches more than proficiency and match experience, an amount I cannot justify. "How to play money matches" doesn't carry the same gravity as how well someone plays period, and is easily a minor factor in the grand scheme of things. And to many players, there is no difference.Money matches =/= normal matches. Marlin Pie can be the better player and he's still going to lose against someone who knows how to play money matches better than him. How much is F Champ and Marlin Pie playing for anyway?
No amount of solid defense is going to beat Marlin. He has unlockable set ups on his team meaning 1 touch is a 60% chance of winning the entire game. There is also no weak link on that team.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON BUT I JUST GOT HOME LINKS PLZ FOR THE LIFE OF GOD
