It hid poison back in da day.
That's a tough pool though.
Yes, I said that before the start of Milan Game Week. But still a bad result for an EG member.

Yeah so Ricki won't be in Capcom Cup. She will need an absolute miracle at Canada Cup and she just hasn't been impressive this year. Even at events with low competition she struggled.

Agreed, it was once hard to imagine this but she has fallen off a bit in the past year. Not much, but it doesn't take much to fall short of qualifying for Capcom Cup when the competition is so stiff now.
Milan is such a huge tournament because it has the most players who can really shake up the standings. Ryan Hart, Kbrad, and Phenom are all barely on the outside with Haitani and Valmaster barely on the inside. Then you still have pretty good players like Eita, Kindevu, and RB who have almost no points but are very capable of taking it.
If only Luffy didn't gatekeep Europe so well we would probably have maybe 2 or 3 extra Europeans in point contention right now lol. But him and Infil are ruthless. Nobody gets any scraps as long as they can help it.

What game is being played right now? The two links in the first post aren't showing anything.
He got better as player but he's still
Impatient as fuck.
So
Winners Top 8
Smug vs Justin
Snake Eyez vs Nuckledu
Smug really has his chance to be at Capcom Cup. MGW looks good for those ones expecting gate keeps. Luffy, Xian, Fuudo and Tonpy are still in winners and can make it to top 8 winners together.
I honestly don't know why Problem X hasn't used Seth. I honestly think he's better with that character right know.

What say you Kokonoe?
That woulda been weird as hell. I almost went too. I wonder if ive seen you at any events and just dont know it.

If Seth does more than 2 reversals that are blocked then he's dead. With Viper he has a unlimited number of safe reversals with or without meter. You can tell that's a integral part of his play style.
Lol yup pretty much. I think hes one of those players that is going to disappear off the face of the earth once V comes out.
DTN is pretty boring this year tbh, almost like i cant get excited for a tournament unless it has a mix of top international competition anymore.
I get it, but still... His Viper looked sloppy during the tournament. I doubt he played once with Seth.
Imo the trip didn't pay off. It's no like he couldn't make top 16 at Milan... And I'm sure he expected to be at least top 6 at NY.
He's using Rashid and whooping UK asses at those WSO. Will see what happens.
TOPANGA LEAGUE 5A ROUND 6

Results:
Umehara, Bonchan, Kazunoko and Nemo advance to the upper finals league. Momochi, Michael-tan, Hagejin, Uryo, Dashio and Pepeday advance to the lower finals league. Tokido and Kitasenju DJ fall from competition and drop to B League.
Well, Daigo and Bonchan are locked in Top 4 now.
Momochi is in a tough spot. He needs to win against Daigo AND Kazunoko to lose against Bonchan.
At the bottom, Kitasenju is sure out of the A league, and Tokido will fight for his life after getting DESTROYED by the Deejay player... But If Pepeday wins 2 more matches, it's over for him.
EDIT : Well, the battle to stay in A league will be decided by the Pepeady VS Tokido match...

Shit's unwatchable even in "low" settings, never thought it would be that bad.

Ryan Hart beat Tonpy to get into top 8
I don't think will see collution. There's money on the line... But you never know.
So Valmaster and Haitani fucked up their chances. Haitani pretty much out and Valmaster needs to wait the gatekeeps. (If they don't decide to attend Canada Cup).
Luffy failed to protect us from Seth. Let's hope Fuudo doesn't...

What's funny is that the casters seem to pretend it's not their fault but the internet at their place. Weirdly enough the stream only starts to lag when games have started and a lot of action is happening on screen, which is the proof it's a bitrate thing : they only need to lower it.

the fuck is going on on the milan torunie, fucking mobile internet or some shit? At first I thought it was some problem with the ps4 twitch app, lol

Not actually that important
I'm on location and other people are streaming without a hitch so I don't think it's that, I mean the whole city and suburbs are pretty much 95% fiber wired

I don't know, there have been many Premiers and Ranking Events in Europe without any lag, so it's hard to fault the streamers. Now they lowered the bitrate and it's still lagging.
