It seems like the Smash community is behind it quite strong and some big players like EG team and ChrisG are attending so I thought why not.

I honestly thought other GAF members were going to do it yesterday or this morning but no one posted anything so I took it on myself.

if chrisg wins, it's a major. if he doesn't, it's an irrelevant regional.

lolno

also if OP goes up the day after, it's not a major

combine that with my previous joke definition of a major

Prototype Viktor · Apr 5, 2014

Personally, if there's a dedicated stream for Smash then it's being strongly supported

Marvelous Wong.

MrDaravon · Apr 5, 2014

Wait, did AE really just start a few minutes ago? Damn, we deep in TST son.

Shito · Apr 5, 2014

Wait, I've just realised: didn't Alex Valle quit playing in tournaments?

He still plays when he can but as a TO it's difficult to have the time to just travel for funsies.

Yup, he did.

PaulKersey · Apr 5, 2014

I don't know why I enjoy watching fighting game tournaments so much. Makes me sad I'll never be at that level, but I can still respect the crap out of the people that are.

Conceited · Apr 5, 2014

Brolylegs is a seriously impressive human being, I will never accomplish half the shit he has.

ismk · Apr 5, 2014

Wow, Broly Legs typed up the book by himself with chopsticks.

Dahbomb · Apr 5, 2014

That Chun Li combo was sweet...

As was the taunt after it. That guy was feeling himself hard.

ZeroMaverick · Apr 5, 2014

Yo, what hell? I had no idea this was happening! Could've gone :/

PAULINK · Apr 5, 2014

Man, going to be working during KI but I will definitely catch the AE finals tomorrow.

Mlatador · Apr 5, 2014

PXG XI is Arkansas Mike that I always talk good about. Every time I talk him up and he gets on stream, he gets blown up by a character he doesn't know how to play against (lack of experience because we're in Arkansas). Glad to see him win on stream. He's super solid, but gets blown up by things he's not familiar with (esp. good Hakans).

K.Sabot · Apr 6, 2014

HUNDRED HAND CLAP

Imm0rt4l · Apr 6, 2014

fighting MLswear can be frustrating, but I love seeing seth get bodied

Way to give insider information to the enemy, bro!

Fuuuck Seth counterpickers!

Lol he can beat terrible Hakans and if he runs into a good Hakan, well he was going to anyway haha. He's fine against almost the entire cast, but if he goes against a character specialist with a gimmicky (non-footsie based) character, then he's at a disadvantage.

I hope he doesn't run into MLSwear lol.

biosnake20 · Apr 6, 2014

Hakan is already close to top 10 in AE2012, in Ultra he'll be ridiculous.

Shito · Apr 6, 2014

ChrisG plays Abel?
Never knew.

Yeah. I was in a SF4 tourney once... did well up until I hit a Blanka and I NEVER played against Blankas... freaking sucked lol. So now I just gave up on the dream.

Haha yeah. Every Blanka has their own gimmicks too lol.

My problem is I get too focused on either offense or defense. I SUCK at switching between the two. If I am doing well, I generally continue to do well in the match. Start losing and I try to defend and don't attack enough. Never been great at fighting games... don't think I have the proper reflexes. And I also like switching games too much to sit and practice on ONE game a lot.

Imm0rt4l · Apr 6, 2014

haha I never saw the match where tommy gun lost to justin after taunting. I hope he loses the money match.
