Yeah I'm gonna stick to the FGW thread. Too much tin foil Momochi conspiracy going on over there and it's too late at night for me to handle that amount of dumb
They decided to move the salty suite Twitch party to http://www.twitch.tv/srkevo1
Which means no source for anyone. lol. ;_;

I think Persona 4 hit 42 or 43k at its peak, though I'm not 100% sure.
Didn't watch Tekken so I can't comment.

Gamerbee, Knuckle Du, KBR...
I think Persona actually had a higher stream count than tekken 7. Not sure about the rest.

Off the top of my head from what I saw:
Hungrybox
KaneBlueRiver
Apologyman (?)
GamerBee
Breh Gamerbee held his tears back. I was watching him like a hawk!
KBR probably did cry and maybe KnuckleDu did but I didn't catch it.
If you mean at the start. It was KI with 31k. If you mean in general I think it was Tekken but not sure.

Gamerbee's girlfriend cried for him. He was too busy consoling her, maintaining his masculine image. It's a classic trick.

What I want to know is how many different characters were used in USFIV top 8, and if that has ever been topped. The fact that everyone had an Elena made it seem higher than it is though.

I have been wondering how the pause affected the mind game aspect of the match. It seemed like the final round went pretty yolo from the start and the downloads had to restart.
Guile, Decapre, Elena, Chun Li, Juri, Rolento, Balrog, Akuma, Evil Ryu, Abel, Adon, Ken.
12 unique characters total.
It's actually tied with Killer Instinct which also had 12 unique characters at an equal split between Season 1 and Season 2 characters:
Season 1 characters: Sadira, Orchid, Thunder, Glacius, Fulgore, Sabrewulf
Season 2 characters: Spinal, Cinder, Omen, Kan-Ra, Hisako, Maya
This is of course counting 1v1 fighter, MVC3 would have more than both but it's a 3v3 fighter.
Or just trying to look strong on stage.
Thought you guys were joking. LOL, nope. Made a post trying to explain why Momochi intentionally pausing would be dumb as hell. Hope people realize that shit breaks down.

Adon showing up is amazing, too bad he didnt have to many combos.
How can people just say "Pause killed GB momentum" When Momochi was 1 round up and had first hit?
Come one guys. It was bad for both. Momochi probed he was mentally stronger, that's it.
I feel sorry for GB cuz he deserves a big win, but in that situation Momochi had more to lose than him...

It's like 2 or 3 dudes total in the EVO thread actually saying it, and just the one guy who tried to detail the conspiracy like Kevin Costner in JFK. And most everyone's (rightfully) giving that guy the "GAH. MEDIOCRE" response.
I'd say most people recognize the situation for what it was. If anyone's actually going tinfoil hat, it's a tiny minority that seems bigger because everyone's quoting/responding to it like "nah buddy."

Maybe it's gif-laden of all the great evo moments.
I just hope he puts in the Hulk smashing Loki gif from the Avengers.
You do realize GB made a comeback each(?) round he was losing in to make it after he reset the bracket right? The momentum was in GB's favor since he reset the bracket. I personally am fine with the win cause GB and Momochi agreed upon it. My issue is with the whole momentum thing, GB was clawing his way back up. Each time I thought he would lose (until the final round) he came back up and surprised all of us.
Imagine if Momochi would of lost that last round. He gave up a free round on a messed up stick.
come on now. 11 seconds into the round it happened. Momochi is on game point and the pause could of cost him the entire set. The pause allowed Gamerbee to get a final round.

That's where I went from I don't care who wins to "god it would be so awful if Momo lost now".

Infiltration played literally half the characters in top 8 at the highest level. Dude is a god.
Fuck I knew I was going to mess these up!Spinal is a S1 character Dahbomb

Seriously
I'm not sure if saying that it robbed him of his momentum is appropriate, but I seriously doubt it didn't fuck him up too

Keits did it right by making the round/match loss mandatory.

Pulling out so many different characters (with vastly different playstyles!) is one thing, but doing it at such a high level and making it seem like it's nothing is insane. Infiltration and Momochi(and to a lesser extent Gamerbee too) are showing everyone that character loyalty barely has any benefits. If you're going to stick to one character, you better be really damn good on it(see: Nemo, Rog), otherwise you're going to fall behind.

Say what you want. Momochi was 1 round up and had the life lead before the controller crash. that's the fact. The rest it's trying to predict alternative reality.

he has played dan on his stream so yes he does have a pocket dan lol
From my view it killed the back & forth momentum that was going on between both players until that pause. It just messed up the flow of the match.
Yeah it seems like that was the theme of that top 3.

Both players were "robbed" of their momentum or whatever you want to call it.
Trying to quantify who was mindfucked more is completely pointless I think.

Pretty sure he did when he went to the hug his mates.
I'm not arguing on facts.
