Slayer of Combofiends
FT5 Smug vs Sanford

Smug led first, then Sanford caught up and started getting hyped up. At 4-4 it went down to the last round after Smug took off his jacket and then stunned Sanford setting up a Rose combo. It failed but Smug won anyway. They hugged it out at the end.

I think Sanford needs to finally admit his admiration for Smug.

The direction of this is an absolute mess. It's not hard to pick the best matches to show if you know what every match is going to be beforehand. Instead we have all this dead air and we're missing the best matches.

They could also have all of the consoles plugged into an HDMI switch and they could just switch from one set to another as games wrap up. Ideally you would have all of the console feeding into the stream station directly but that's probably too e-sports right now.

An embarrassing performance from GB. Why didn't he switch to Adon? Also, didn't Akuma get nerfed?

edit: wait, that was grand finals? Ye gads.

Might be one of the worst finals ever. Just too dominant for me to get hyped. He should have at least tried with Adon... couldn't have done any worse than he did with Yun.

Gamerbee sent Infiltration to the losers bracket with Yun 3-0 in the Winners Finals. Whenever he's faced Infiltration, he's always tried to counter pick with Yun because he doesn't like the Adon-Akuma matchup.

I understand why he didn't switch though, after winning convincingly in WF then proceeding to get downloaded so quickly.. he must've thought he still had a shot.

Does Adon lose that matchup vs Akuma that bad though? Before I'd always think that GB should stick to his guns, but he always counter picks with Yun vs Infil.

Holy fucking shit this match is still going? Literally did cleaning, made and ate dinner and desert, made some coffee and sat down and it's still on. And it was like 2-0 already when I left. God damn.

Yea Adon gets wrecked by Akuma. Probably even worse in this version.

Great stuff from Shine. I would have liked to see him use Yang's command grab more out of FADC slash pressure but a terrific set nonetheless. I still think Yang is pretty damn legit in Ultra.
