So I saw on shoryuken.com people discussing how UMVC3 is dead like SFxT.

Did I miss something...?

The menu bar isnt working, i cant select games on the top row and cant access the forums. Is anyone else having this problem?

DEEETROOOIIT FIGHTING GAAAMES!

@#1

I don't believe that is accurate. Nothing new is out to make that big of an impact to kill marvel. A lot of ppl left SF4 for sfxtk then came back. Same happens with marvel. No matter what... you'll always be back. Lol

Sakura <3

@1 I think they mean that support wise from Capcom, the game is dead, or they're borderline retarded.

Nothing will ever kill marvel other then a new marvel, or maybe another capcom vs something. Anyone saying different are delusional, AE and UMVC3 are main stays plain and simple.

Was this event advertised?!?

Wtf? I live near this and cannot attend because I had no freaking idea it was going on! The rare chance to see some real action in Michigan!

@ 4,6

Good. I was gonna be really sad if future tourneys left out UMVC3 or sump. Glad to see it was just a buncha tools speaking out of their a**.

That naruto stream was pretty entertaining i should look up a scene that plays the game

@7
News of youmacon was pretty much everywhere. Even on canada cup lap chi was getting invited to go live in the chat.

@10

Well, I didn't pay to watch Canada Cup... So I guess I missed Lap Chi.

But I live in Metro Detroit Area, and frequent EH daily/hourly and had no idea it was going on.

I think the banner wasn't big enough:?(

@11 Watching Canada Cup was free; it was paid chat.

@12

Sadly, I found all of the various options strange and confusing... So I didn't bother.

Waited for results, watched footage as it came to YouTube.

@12 and archive.

Does this news/tourney not get updated? AE reached top 16 hours ago.

Top 16 with no updates.

14 comments as of day two.

I feel that this event must've had 0 publicity. And 0 hype.

The usual suspects are mostly all in top 8. Hmmmm

Noel Brown in top 8 for SFIV?????

@15

Yeah, I figured out about it on like Wednesday, and today is the first day I actually caught some Marvel. Sucks that you missed out on it, though. I would be pissed if there was an event here in Milwaukee and I could have went but didn't know. You should go tomorrow for all the Grand Finals.

Give respect to Uncle Valle for getting into top 16 in 3rd trike withthe crappiest character in the game.

@19

Yeah, maybe I will. I still can't tell if this was open entry or invite only? Wtf?

And last year I'm pretty sure this event was an anime expo with some small side tourney that everyone skipped!? Idk man, but I'm salty as hell on this one.

Milwaukee you say? I lived in Waukesha when I was a kid. Only for about a year. It was around the time some famous murders were taking place in Milwaukee. (No connection to me lol)

EG|Ricky Ortiz
LU|Alex Valle
EG|PR Balrog
EG|Justin Wong

God damn. The whole tournament is free to these guys. Oh and the CORN Footwork vs Noel Brown match was godlike! It's a must see. LOL

Nice to see Alex Valle doing well and winning the Super Turbo is no surprise. Justin Wong will always find it difficult to beat Valle at ST. It's amazing that Valle is still going strong and despite his age and not being to practice a lot like he did during his prime, he still manages to compete with the big time players today.

@21

It's a shame that you didn't know that this tournament is being played near your area. If it was an open entry, that is sad. I will be annoyed if that happened to me.

It's a yearly anime con that's been running for longer than I care to remember. They've always had tournaments, but it wasn't until last year that DMG showed up, set up a stream with skisonic, and had PR Balrog win the tournament for free (Whupped me pretty bad too. Least I made it far I guess). This year I guess that everybody must have like the potential, and they decided to set up on a much grander scale, and nearly be separate events. Still have to deal with con people, so good luck lol.

Sooo Wolfkrone not making top 8?

^ Wolfkrone wasn't even there. He stayed home.

Guess Skullgirls wasn't deemed important enough to list the results in this article...

@Caruga

Results are up now for Skullgirls.

Congrats Yipes.

PR, j wong, alex v, and r ortiz top 4 american players by a long long mile.

PR: no.2 mvc3 , no.2 ssf4 ,ssf2t no.3 ,ssf3 no.4

justin wong no.4 mvc3, no.1 ssf4, kof no.3, sfxt no.1, ssf2t no.2, ssf3 no.1, skullgirls no.2

ricky no.5 mvc3, no.3 ssf4, sfxt no.3, ssf3 no.2

alex no.7 ssf4, sfxt no.2, ssf2t no.1, ttt2 no.5, ssf3 no.3

@30

Dude, these were pretty much the ONLY pro players that came! Of course they won everything.

WolfKrone is from Detroit and he didn't attend. And Sethlolol is from Warren and blew these guys up in LA a few weeks ago.

Not saying they aren't great, because they are. PR Rog is a personal fav. As well as Valle being a long time favorite. But there are plenty of other American players that can beat them regularly depending on the game.

So glad that a top Marvel player is giving Dr Strange some love - especially when it was painfully obivous that he has some great potential.

Probably my favourite character at the moment (bored of watching most of them at this point).

@31

but people said this is a major.

@21

You mean the Jeffrey Dahmer crap? I remember that junk when I was tiny. Didn't take it seriously till I seen the movie lol. Did you end up going?

@34

To a movie? Can't say I did.

@33

Maybe it was a major. Idk. The entire thing was a big ol Suprise to everyone. Maybe if it went well it'll be a bigger deal next year.

If its an annual, open tournament, my Chun and I will attend next year:)

@34

Ohhhh, lol. You mean down the tournament. No, as I kinda mentioned (b!tced about lol) I couldn't get any free time because I had no notice for work/sitter/soccer:)

Next time for sure Gamma.

And if its truly a "Major", you should make the trip from Milwaukee:D

No Smash Bros. results? Kappa

@31 Sethlolol was there, he just didn't place :\ Wolfkrone has been absent from the entire scene. He's expected to return at SF25 Championship.

And Youmacon was godlike. It wasn't the hugest tournament ever, but the convention itself makes up for it. So much more to do than just stay in the ballroom all weekend.

@41

Didn't place? How's that? Dudes been dropping people. Did he get randomed out?

I hope the event is as good as you say. I'll be in attendance next year.
