Updated: The results for each game and stream archives have been added into the story after the jump.
Shout outs to Haunts who's not only streaming this event, but also provided a lot of the details for this post.
In inglish it's Brazil with Z, but in portuguese it's Brasil with S.
Tokido's run from Losers' in SF2 was really nice to watch.
Since Tokido won SFXT in Brazil, it looks like he will be DQed on Japan's tournament of SFXT's top 8.
That AE grand finals match was awesome.
Cammy's looking too good lately; K Brad @ SBa, Chi Rithy Toronto Series, and now Bruno Fighters...
*takes Cammy into training mode*
I will now repeat something that I have been saying ever since AE-2012 first came out.
Cammy needs to have damage nerfs to some of her attacks. She has way too many simple, easy to pull off combos that take away too much health.
If a combo is very high-damaging then there should be a trade-off in that it'll be hard to connect (land the first hit). Cammy's combos are different in that she has a fairly easy time landing the first hit to very high damage combos, due to her top-tier footsies in AE-2012.
I've been saying the same thing for around ~10 months now and it seems that people are finally realizing the truth about OP Cammy.
FNEX K-Brad: Cammy isn't top tier
Cammy players take 2 majors
The world waits....
@14
FNEX K-Brad's lie (dishonest opinion): "Cammy isn't top tier."
FNEX K-Brad's REAL take on it (the thoughts that he keeps to himself): "Cammy is definitely top tier. But I ain't never going to admit it openly. If I do, then Capcom might nerf her and balance the game. I don't want that."
Now that's how you play Yomi in real life. LOL.
@14
Three majors. A Cammy player also won T13 in AE.
Why is Cammy winning everything now?
@13 thats why cammy is considered top tier....you aren't the only one to think that. Everyone knows she's good just not a lot of people played her before
Not too long ago if you said that Cammy was top tier, all the Cammy players on this site would defend her by stressing that she had never won a major before. They can't even do that anymore.
@16
Those three majors hardly scratch the surface in terms of how big of a problem Cammy has become in AE-2012.
For the past ~10 months, I've been saying that the online scene of AE-2012 (both XBox360-Live and PSN) has literally been a "Cammyfest."
I see more Cammys online in AE-2012 than Yun, Yang, and Fei Long combined back in Vanilla-AE.
Not to mention the list of pros (American and Japanese) that have dropped their characters to switch to Cammy.
For the record, I also agree Cammy is a braindead character, more than Blanka if you want to know, and unlike Blanka, most of her moves are way to safe and fast recovery.BS.
What happened to Gamerbee in SSFAE? How come he isn't in top 8? Did he even play or did he get eliminated?
@22
I'm not sure if he played AE-2012 in this tournament. He qualified as the 2nd place seed (After Infiltration) in the Taiwan qualifiers, which gave him a ticket to the US for the main event.
But I'm not sure. I didn't see the whole thing.
i must say that Breno have a solid cammy, but not as good as the best japanese cammy, Sako should be the only one allowed to play the character.
And come on ElectricBlanka, exept from her Lk and MK spiral arrow done at a peculiar distance, Cammy has absolutely no safe moves on block.
if you think cammy has a bunch of safe moves, you suck at punishing her
@23
Lol it is quite funny how now everyone is jumping on the Cammy is top tier wagon. Personally I've seen your posts and joined in a few time abouts how she is bs but you wont change anyones mind as you didn't back then. Once a Cammy wins a major all the scrubs just jump on the wagon when she has been exactly the same for so long yet now she is top tier?
Things like this make me laugh
"@13 thats why cammy is considered top tier....you aren't the only one to think that. Everyone knows she's good just not a lot of people played her before"
I don't remember anyone else other than fireinthehole who actively went on forums or even agreed that Cammy was top tier when everyone said she hasn't won a major even though she has been the same for long.
@27
GW,
Practically ALL of the top Japanese pros have considered Cammy to be solid A+ tier even back in Vanilla-AE. Back in Vanilla-AE, the top Japanese pros have always stated that Cammy was a member of the second highest tier-category alongside with Viper, Makoto, and Seth (Yun, Yang, and Fei Long being the first higest tier-category back in Vanilla-AE).
And in the AE-2012, practically all of the top Japanese and some of the American pros have been saying that Cammy was in the highest tier-category for ~10 months now.
@27
"I don't remember anyone else other than fireinthehole who actively went on forums or even agreed that Cammy was top tier when everyone said she hasn't won a major even though she has been the same for long."
Seem like you don't have that great of a memory after all.
Throughout the past ~10 months or so, since the release of AE-2012, there has been numerous newsfeeds (Eventhubs, SRK, etc...) about how all of the top Japanese pros have stated that Cammy is top-tier in AE-2012.
Every time that there is a newsfeed about Japanese pros (and even American pros) stating that Cammy is top-tier, there have been hordes of Cammyfans jumping on the train of denial.
In almost every thread about some Japanese pro stating that Cammy is top-tier, you'll see hordes of posts made by Cammyfans who are actively denying the fact that she is top-tier and OP in AE-2012.
Why do I use Rose when Cammy is just lapping up all the majors?
Oh...how I hate you character loyalty...
@27
"when everyone said she hasn't won a major"
What are you referring to when you say "everyone"? I don't recall a single thread in which every single poster agreed with something along the lines of "Cammy is not OP because she has never won a major."
All of the threads I remember had a good number of folks on both sides of the debate, but the most commonly used argument by the Cammyfans is that: Cammy has not won a major, thus she is not top-tier.
Breno is one of the best Cammy's I've ever seen. Tokido played brilliant too and still the best Akuma. Some of the matches were intense. Real top quality.
Cammy is a whore.....no character loyalty for tier whores.
@31 I'm with ya. So many good characters out there and I find myself loyal to Rose. If only Soul throw was patched in a way that it could grab EX divekicks...
...Cammy's a whore lol.
