Got to give props to Bonchan. He lost a lot of weight.

 

[The Last Emperor]

Can't believe it was almost 12 hours ago when haitani almost lost to that hilariously random sagat

 

[Soulstar]

Never forget

So Good.

 

[OceanBlue]

He also goes by Wanchan. That name is probably more recognizable.

Wanchan was at this tourney?! Holy shit.

Just came back from some casuals. Top 32 of AE was HYPE.

 

[Westlo]

2011, guy named Deathwish.

That was Deathwish, and it was the year the game came out (2011?).

That was it, amazing evo moment.

I hear Sako has other pocket characters besides Ibuki and Evil Ryu, so maybe we'll see some surprises.

He has them 2 and Cammy if he really wanted to, he needs noone else.

 

[Shimesaba]

What stream was the later AE stuff on? I need to do some archive diving.

 

[jbug617]

Also stream numbers seem good so far. I think Stream #1 peaked around 65k.

For Top 32
Stream 1 had Winners side
Stream 2 had Losers side

You don't need subscriber, i'm watching it right now.

Part of me hopes that PR Balrog will go out early in Marvel so he can prepare for Street Fighter.

I bet you he has that on his mind too, an entire day of Marvel with SF finals on the next day isn't a good regiment.

Really? Surprising but fair enough I suppose.

Luckily, PR Balrog plays one of the simplest teams in Marvel, so he can focus on SF.

I can confirm that, I'm watching now without subscribing.

 

[Lambda Pie]

fell asleep and missed TTT2 finals. any (free) archives i can dig in to catch up with it?

 

[TheThunder]

What was the biggest choke of the SF4 tourney so far?

KBrad allowing Tokido to come back to win rounds after having big leads in each round
Dakou's failing to finish Haitani and going from a Perfect to losing the round(and the match)
Humanbomb failing to land Ultra to win the 2nd match against Dakou and getting eliminated

Gonna have to go with FreeBrad choking it up.

All I see are the archive videos from 2012.

They should show and update Thaís on the streaming...

 

[Lee Chaolan]

What I want to know, is when was the Tag 2 tournament played? Only the finals were streamed, and that was early Friday...So was the actual tournament later Thursday, or just really early Friday?

Early friday. I think pools were streamed on IEbattlegrounds.

@Zclyh3 1h

Laugh is pissed. #Evo2013 Threw his stick to the ground. No handshake once again

@IPWDeuce 7m

Laugh comes up to us after everyone leaves the ballroom. Death glare in his eyes and just speaks "fuck" fairly loudly. #EVO2013

That left over salt

 

[E-Mercenary]

Anyone have a time code for PR rog vs Infiltration? Would really appreciate it.

 

[Jomjom]

Is there any way to watch the P4A finals by any chance? Missed them completely because I was at work.

Thanks for that...sad I missed the actual tournament, thought it was lame only the finals got the limelight =/

If they are working, just scan through the srkevo1 archive above. Finestko had pools.

Archive http://www.twitch.tv/srkevo1/b/429460523

P4A from about 9 hours
Infiltration v PR Rog from 13 hours 45 minutes

 

[Kandrick]

I must have watched the Tokido vs K-brad fight like 10 times, so good.

 

[Strange in Stereo]

Anyone have a time code for PR rog vs Infiltration? Would really appreciate it.

Here.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

I should just do some big post with timestamps for everyone

 

[jbug617]

TTT2 Top 8 starts around 6:48
P4A Top 8 starts around 9:00

 

[Unlucky]

Would be great. We would thank you kindly!

Nope.

Maybe!

I imagine most of the top players are gonna try and get some rest tho.

Thanks!

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

I mentioned it earlier, but, in all seriousness, the semi-finals today really make me want to try my hand at Street Fighter again. I tried to get into it last year but pussied out when I realized how much dexterity and coordination was required. I really think I'll try to buckle down and learn it this time, though.

Also, does anyone have clear results for Melee? The results page on SRK is confusing as fuck.

Somebody shave his damn face.

 

[FindMyFarms]

A bit if unfortunate news on the marvel side of things. AB Jan and AB Stone won't make it to evo. Due to a unfortunate series of misunderstandings and miscommunication, their flights got rescheduled thenb eventually jt cancelled. They are both at my apt drunk and salty right now.

That left over salt

Who did laugh lose to?

"Actually I've been playing Rufus off-stream and it worked well. But I also felt that crowd expecting Makoto.
So I decided to main her on stage. No, not because of matchups, just for hype."

-- Haitani on nico stream.

Haitani is my hero.

 

[jbug617]

Who did laugh lose to?

Infiltration. The end of the match was very awkward

 

[Nose Master]

I wasn't lurking at the time, but any theories on what the fuck Daigo was doing out there during his match with Tokido? It felt like sandbagging during the second set, and then the dude just derps 4 fierce meaty DPs in a row. Was he just overconfident?

Usually I would be leaping out of my seat at Tokido over Daigo, but it felt gross.

Dem reads gone wrong.

Those are Daigo's umeshoryus. They're random (not all, but you get the point) and catch people off guard. It works a lot of the time, but when it doesn't it looks like that match.

Tokido outplayed him.


I think the last time Tokido beat him in a big tournament was SBO CvS2 Grand Finals.

Just bad reads would be my guess. Sometimes you just think "well this time he'll think I'll finally block but I'll surprise with another wake up DP". Daigo channeled his inner Jyboin, unfortunately it didn't work out for him.

 

[FindMyFarms]

Who's in top 8 winners/losers for sf4?

 

[I-hate-u]

Predictions for top 8 of AE:

-Daigo knock Infiltration out of the tournament.

-PR Balrog loses to Daigo in losers finals

-Xian wins the tournament.

 

[KidA Seven]

Who's in top 8 winners/losers for sf4?

Sako vs Xian
Tokido vs Rog



Daigo vs INfiltration
Haitani vs Gamerbee
