Hi-larious
 
Honestly, Eliver was AMAZING in that trailer in the sense that you wouldn't expect him to do half as good as you thought he would. Assuming he isn't an actual amateur actor, I thought he did pretty damn good as just someone that was asked to do it for fun. When he host the show, he never seems that charismatic to me but he did pretty good when it came to this intro.
 
Yeah it's really nice. I asked koogy and gootecks about it on twitter yesterday which is why I know! It's available in the cross counter bundle, as well.
 
Mike Ross has Justin doing the UNTHINKABLE!

Only John Choi and Daigo has been able to win 2 finals in the same year, but they did it in 200 man tournaments.

This is 1000 + man tournaments.
 
Keev isn't unstoppable... I don't even watch SCV and I know that. He lost at that Vegas tournament...

He lost to OmegaDR, who isn't coming to EVO apparently because Namco haven't pay him his money yet for that Vegas tournament. If he is coming he would have been a favourite.

Fanatiq at 2nd? Mike Ross is fuckin' trolling.

Don't see anything wrong, he's godlike in 3/5 and will download everyone. If he goes up against J Wong in the Grand Finals he'll probably win EVO. The only issue is that he doesn't seem to have a clue to beating Chris G's soul fists and he will probably not beat Chris G if they meet.
 

A Pretty Panda

fuckin' called it, man
If Justin can win 2 titles in the same year... hell if anyone can do that these days with thousands of friggin people, that'd be amazing.
 
Mike's prediction isn't far fetched at all. Justin winning two 1000+ man tournament probably won't happen, but it's kind of see able.

I think MK9, KOF, and SFxT are pretty much locks.

Wow that sucks...

This episode started off nicely but now it feels like snoozefest. Also, Mike Ross is crazy for his AE 2012 and UMVC3 prediction.
 
Yipes is gonna make Top 8 Marvel.

It's his time, now.

Its all about Local Battles. I want ChrisG and his Morrigan to blow the tournament up!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

ITS BACK

I can see ChrisG vs Justin Wong in Grand finals too. Likewise I can see Justin and FChamp.

Fanatiq isn't a long shot either. Dude is solid as fuck right now, the MM training and FGTV stay did wonders for his Marvel play. I agree with Mike Ross in that Justin is EXTREMELY hungry right now, he wants the Marvel crown back.

At this point, the only two I think I can confidently say for Top 8 Marvel are FChamp and Wong.

Beyond that, too many fucking killers for me to bank on. Neither of the two are ones I want to win either.

EDIT: Damnit Dahbomb reading my mind.

If ChrisG wins Marvel with his Morrigan team, I will be salty as fuck.

Seriously, I'm gonna block someone's artery instantly.

I agree with you. I watched Justin's stream where he ran sets with Yipes, Combofiend, and Cl0ck and it feels like he approach the game completely different.

I hope Marlinpie makes top 8 though... and Cl0ckw0rk.

Justin is finally putting his talent into top tier characters in this game, which has been soooo fruitful for him. I've never seen him like this in my time following the scene, much less anybody with the passion for glory he has right now.

And a Marlinpie vs. Chris G. Grand finals is my wet dream

Justin can open you up without even using a mix up. That's how good he is in Marvel. He beats you by downloading you, reading you and then out footsieing you.

If Iron Fist was a legitimate Mid tier and above character then Justin would've won EVO with him easy. His Iron Fist has as many tournament wins as the 3 best characters in the game (Zero, Viper, Vergil).

On top of those two, I'd consider it an upset if ChrisG doesn't make top 8. And yeah, Fanatiq's got a good shot too.
