What a line up. Where you Americans at? ('cept for Ross)

That question mark is basically Daigo, right?

denaycous_dee85 said on May 5, 2011 at 8:22 a.m.

Why was alex in this trailer? Allso the names dont fit the combatants either at the end. But this is gonna be another big tournament. Dudes must save alot of money to enter these tournaments plus whatever sponsers that promote them. I wanna start joining these tournaments or make my own in miami florida.

Bust out the glow sticks, the pacifiers and the Vick's vapor rub, kiddies!

denaycous_dee85 said on May 5, 2011 at 8:23 a.m.

? most likely daigo, can never count him out of tournaments.

SAMURAI said on May 5, 2011 at 8:23 a.m.

? = DAIGO THE BEAST!

denaycous_dee85 said on May 5, 2011 at 8:24 a.m.

Well said shogun.

KaraFail said on May 5, 2011 at 8:28 a.m.

I think its cause they're having a 3s tourney too.

denaycous_dee85 said on May 5, 2011 at 8:30 a.m.

ah i thought it was just ssf4 and mk9 or mvc3 or something.

denaycous_dee85 said on May 5, 2011 at 8:32 a.m.

Glad 3S still has tournaments. Cant wait to start playing 3s online.

Awesome trailer.

#14

MrPavy said on May 5, 2011 at 8:43 a.m.

holy sh1t thats a crazy line up,thats better then evo

#15

SabishiiRyuu said on May 5, 2011 at 8:56 a.m.

That's way better than EVO. Much closer to SBO. Now that they have Daigo too, the only giants missing are Kuroda and RX from 3s.

#16

WinstonChurchill said on May 5, 2011 at 8:57 a.m.

I'd have to agree with you MrPavy. All those attending this will be warm as hell for evo.

#17

MrPavy said on May 5, 2011 at 8:58 a.m.

i thought Rx was on vacation in Brazil,there was a video saw of him

#18

goukibuki said on May 5, 2011 at 8:59 a.m.

Glad Tokido was listed first as he's been holding down the international scene since Daigo switched to AE.

#19

MonkeyCha0s said on May 5, 2011 at 9:01 a.m.

this does look sick. we got Bon -R- Tsrai Gameoutt. and im guessing its gunna be on AE too. really cant wait

#20

LordJim said on May 5, 2011 at 9:09 a.m.

How the hell did they manage to get all these people, jesus christ.
I guess poor locals will just fill the pot.
Still, if they secure a good stream, this will be a hell of a tournament.

#21

denaycous_dee85 said on May 5, 2011 at 9:11 a.m.

RIP aloha gief and tetsu fuerte, how i miss watching these guys play there mains. A moment of silence please......may your hands glorify another. Amen

#22

WinstonChurchill said on May 5, 2011 at 9:13 a.m.

#21, Japan isnt that far from Australia :P

#23

denaycous_dee85 said on May 5, 2011 at 9:21 a.m.

They need more american players, this is gonna be one hell of a tournament. Is ryan in this? jwong or marn? or the infamous wolfkrone, man that would be to big.

#24

ID99 said on May 5, 2011 at 9:25 a.m.

some nice effects in the trailer, anyone knows who's the one that made it?

#25

spotlesseden said on May 5, 2011 at 9:40 a.m.

this lineup is sick. I think they will be better than evo. Of course, if you don't care about SSF4:AE and only play MK and mvc. that's another story.

#26

Nei said on May 5, 2011 at 9:52 a.m.

EG got to go. cmon justin and ricky

It was not just a matter of distance in my mind.
Still, I do not complain.

#29

mR_CaESaR said on May 5, 2011 at 10:14 a.m.

@25 - The trailer would have been made by Boss Logic, one of the guys running the tournament.

Their main website is http://www.shadowloo.com/

All I can say is, well done TEC Boys, you've definitely put Oz on the map with this line up :)

Hopefully Oz can put on a good show... the unfortunate thing is, our broadband network sux balls, hopefully the stream (looking at you Bugs :D) can hold its own for the weekend.

Well done getting the guests again. I don't suppose you guys got James Chen and Ultradavid doing the commentating did you? :)

So the million dollar question is... Will 'the beast' get his own full fledged trailer? :)

#30

NMS84 said on May 5, 2011 at 10:44 a.m.

That's one hell of a line up.

#31

Grimmjow316 said on May 5, 2011 at 10:57 a.m.

Itabashi yeah baby rep the Gief the 3s line up is looking solid hope at least some Australians can break through would be interested in there playstyle.

#32

ShadowKnight28 said on May 5, 2011 at 11:16 a.m.

This lineup is WAYYY better than evo. They even got Kokujin and KSK to go for 3S. If they could get Nuki, RX and Kuroda to join in on the fun, it would pretty much be the mini-SBO. Hope Justin and Ricky go for this, because this is the REAL World Fighting Game Championship.

#33

Aluppoj said on May 5, 2011 at 11:35 a.m.

Amazing players. Needs a few more top American players though. Hopefully Mike Ross will be playing.

Needs Alex Valle, OnlineTony, Ricky Ortiz, Marn, J.Wong, Wolfkrone.

And I hate to admit it (because I don't like him) Phillipino Champ.

#34

Grimmjow316 said on May 5, 2011 at 11:48 a.m.

Get some euro players in the mix as well would be nice.

#35

Aluppoj said on May 5, 2011 at 11:49 a.m.

Sanford from the EC also lol. And Combofiend. Heck, take everyone!

#36

WinstonChurchill said on May 5, 2011 at 11:50 a.m.

#35, 100% agreed

#37

PSNmignon15 said on May 5, 2011 at 12:24 p.m.

Haitani and Kokujin?! Man, this is gonna be so sweet!

#38

Grimmjow316 said on May 5, 2011 at 1:28 p.m.

Turn into the royal rumble lol still I should request those days to watch the stream who is streaming if they get spooky epic.

Uh oh,it's in australia. D:

TSRAI!! I want to see his Blanka in action!!

#41

Sharpie84 said on May 5, 2011 at 1:59 p.m.

1) How is Mago not sponsored yet?

2) What's up with the Mike Ross glamor shot?

Sick line-up though, no way EVO can top that. Payout maybe, but star power no.

xRELLIKx said on May 5, 2011 at 2:23 p.m.

love the markman pic. total boss maane B\

#43

hismit said on May 5, 2011 at 2:52 p.m.

Where is 3rd Strike EVO?
Now I got sth to expect beside SBO.

Hope for more 3S gods, RX, Roshihikari & YSB please!

#44

IKnowNada said on May 5, 2011 at 2:56 p.m.

Just a random thought, what would happen if someone were to bring over copies of MK9?

#45

Gameplan said on May 5, 2011 at 3:04 p.m.

Holy sh*t what a line up! O_O

Too bad it's gonna be a pain in the ass to be a stream monster on this side of the world, internet lag + time-zone difference. I'll try my best, tho. :P

#46

TheMasterPlayer said on May 5, 2011 at 3:46 p.m.

That trailer was HYPED! Oh and where is Daigo?

#47

bananainsaneface said on May 5, 2011 at 6:20 p.m.

No Justin Wong or Marn??? :(

#48

SoundwaveButcher said on May 5, 2011 at 7:23 p.m.

? = Tiger.You heard it here first.

But seriously,Daigo has not being out of Japan to play since Canada Cup(can anyone confirm this if true).

I hope we'll get a quality stream to witness this epic line up.
