[Blackquill]

That was a fucking great Evo, only missed injustice and melee but all the games I saw were great

 

[xiseerht]

What an EVO. And that is why I love fighting games.

 

[Lulubop]

Anyone got clips for the demon and the taunt kill?

 

[hydragonwarrior]

Till next year guys!

Although last year the audio was a bit better - I remember really hearing the audience yell out "You are free now!" along side Bruce's voice; this time it was harder to hear

 

[doemaaan]

First time attending EVO. Being set free live on the floor is amazing 💪.

Haha, fantastic!

 

[Line_HTX]

God, I fucking LOVE fighting games.

 

[SargerusBR]

Man...this is going to get used a lot in FGC threads, isn't it?

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Evo was a great watch this year. I want to try and go next year since I couldn't make it this time. Need to support anime and Gundam!

 

[MThanded]

Did Spooky buy the rights to Riki Oh.

Someone is paying someone to show that clip ( or the rights holders don't care) .

 

[secretanchitman]

You're all free now!

 

[broz0rs]

peace out GAF FGC. I'm glad I was able to watch Tekken, KoF, and some of SFV finals. It truly didn't disappoint this year.

 

[Altazor]

Another great EVO has come to a close. See you all next year!

 

[Xeteh]

God, I fucking LOVE fighting games.

I heard that fighting games are great.

 

[Blizzard]

Tokido really deserved that. Outstanding play, experience and patience paying off. I'm glad he finally got the win.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Tokido should be leaving with over 35.7k. He gets 20k from Capcom and 60% of the EVO pot which is around 15.7k.

I DON'T CARE ABOUT NO DAMN TOKIDO! I was talking about Punk!

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Watching Tekken tomorrow.

Great finals.

 

[Etrian Oddity]

What a fucking amazing EVO

Goddamn I love this shit. I really, really do.

 

[Rainy]

Were the Tekken and Smash 4 Top 8s worth watching? I missed those. Also are EVO vods locked behind a paywall on twitch or nah.

 

[Rice-Eater]

Oh boy it's happening again. I'm suffering from mad post EVO depression. It's over and I just don't know how to cope. Can't we just have another EVO next weekend? ;_;

 

[RecRoulette]

Don't forget: "THIS MAN WON EVOLUTION!"

I just needed something to cheer me up. Evo ending is always sad.

 

[Envelope]

Were the Tekken and Smash 4 Top 8s worth watching? I missed those. Also are EVO vods locked behind a paywall on twitch or nah.

yeah BB, KOF, Tekken, S4, and SFV all had fantastic top 8s

 

[GeoNeo]

Amazing fucking Evo.

Tokido you goddamn beast!!

 

[secretanchitman]

I can't believe I went last year and didn't go this year...but next year will be even more insane with DBZ, MVCI, Arika fighter and SFV S3!

 

[SolidSnakex]

I DON'T CARE ABOUT NO DAMN TOKIDO! I was talking about Punk!

He'll get just over 15k.

[FaintColt388301]

That was a great SFV finals. Interested to see the ESPN numbers. Capcom coming through with those season 2 changes enough to have a crazy mix of fighters in finals.

 

[Finaika]

Amazing fucking Evo.

Tokido you goddamn beast!!

Tokido is a beast.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

I love how you could actually hear everyone at the venue yelling out they were all free now too. xD

See ya next year Evo <3

 

[Dahbomb]

Great tournament, great experience.

I love that video so much.

 

[Rainy]

yeah BB, KOF, Tekken, S4, and SFV all had fantastic top 8s

Kk I'll watch when my night shift ends..
And yeah I loved the BB top 8.

 

[DoubleTake]

This Evo was amazing. Tekken, SFV, and BB were my favorites.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Oh boy it's happening again. I'm suffering from mad post EVO depression. It's over and I just don't know how to cope. Can't we just have another EVO next weekend? ;_;

Shit. I was at CEO last month.

Even when the event was over and everybody was stacking chairs, I was standing around hoping that it wasn't actually over.

Ah well.

 

[WarRock]

Gotta watch the Blazblue Top 8 tomorrow. Tekken, SFV, and Smash 4 were pretty great.

BB was ridiculous, you're in for a treat.

 

[TheChits]

That was one of the best Evos I think. So many great tournaments, great reveals/announcements, and that entire sfv top 8 was phenomenal.

 

[Shadow_Lord]

Fighting games that I tried to watch the entire tournament/top 8 and actually kept up with:

-SFV (No words. Just hype)
-Tekken 7 (Amazing tournament and amazing top 8)
-UMvC3 (One last send off for Marvel. RyanLV beating Chris G and ascending was satisfying to watch)
-GGXrd (First time watching a major for this game, very fun and am inspired to pick it up now)
-Injustice 2 (First NRS game that I haven't picked up, but not a bad top 8. Too much Aquaman tho)

Fighting games that I checked out their stream and find them interesting:
-Blazblue (Never thought I'd like the gameplay but here we are)
-Smash 4 (Actually a pretty fun game to watch not gonna lie.)
-KoF XIV (NEVER THOUGHT THAT THIS GAME WOULD BE SO HYPE THAT DAIMON SUPER IN GF AAAAAAHHHH)

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Will sfv turn the ship around? Stay tuned!

[NipplesAndToes23]

 

[LiK]

SFV Top 8 was amazing cuz everyone played a different character. So refreshing to see the diversity and not the same 3 characters like last year.

 

[NastyBook]

I don't see how punk can keep up his alpha schtick after crying like that.

Does it really matter?

 

[140.85]

Don't forget: "THIS MAN WON EVOLUTION!"

I just needed something to cheer me up. Evo ending is always sad.

ROFL I totally forgot about this

 

[Astral]

DBZ next year is gonna be amazing isn't it?

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

I love that video so much.

It's perfect.

KOF finals are usually always hype.

 

[colinp]

Bar Fights Round 2 is on twitch today. Was round 2 just yesterday's stream?

 

[StrangeRoboMemory]

I know it stings for Punk but I'm not sad for him. Young man did his thing and came up short in the end, but has all the time in the world to get out there and keep at it. He did a great job and should be proud of his run.

This concludes another EVO...been watching this thing for over ten years, crazy how far it's come.

In the Spooky stream tradition, I'll close it out with:

 

[Lunafreya Nox Fleuret]

We are freeeeeeee now.

 

[Rice-Eater]

I DON'T CARE ABOUT NO DAMN TOKIDO! I was talking about Punk!

Well Punk won about 15.2k then. I'm sure he can wipe way his tears with all those hundreds.

But really, it was sad to see him lose. He took it hard but someone had to. He's still so young and has plenty of years to dominate.
