FGTV presents 16-man Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 invitational with no X-Factor and lowest damage settings
@17: They did a no x-factor tournament at Guard Crush (I think) one week. The players had the option of either both activating right at the start of the round and then "starting" when x-factor ran out, or to penalize a game to any player who activated x-factor (assuming they didn't go with option 1). I think most players prefer option 2 because that way they can still try and mix-up their opponent in the ...
FGTV presents 16-man Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 invitational with no X-Factor and lowest damage settings
This will be interesting, but I feel like a lot of these matches will end as timeouts (because of the low damage, not because of no x-factor). Also, I wonder if FChamp will still run Phoenix without x-factor. Are they hoping that this might turn into the competitive standard?
Major tournament considering banning Rolento from Street Fighter X Tekken if game freezing glitch isn't fixed
Xellos - sorry man, that sounds like a terrible idea. Forcing players to not use one character is one thing, but what if your opponent wins the flip, chooses Rolento, and both of your mains are fireball characters? Now everyone has to learn two alt characters and it's entirely up to chance. It's better to have a constant (ban Rolento) rather than a variable (coin flip) in this case, though I think a "use Rolento ...
Kusoru explains not wanting to return to U.S., amount of prize money won at Final Round mentioned
I'd love for him to come back just to see if he can repeat his success. I completely understand his mentality though, he is still LOSING money by coming here unless a sponsor can back him up.
Big Two #11 YouTube replays for Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition v2012 and Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3
Why aren't the videos arranged in the proper way to view them, i.e. winner's finals --> loser's finals --> grand finals. If I want to watch them without knowing who won each match, it kind of spoils it to see the Grand Finals listed first.
Street Fighter history part 3, dubstep rap and mix, graffiti wall and odd Nickelodeon cartoon cameo
Sorry, didn't mean to come off sounding like a dick, especially since I have no idea how much of their reader-base in the US. But EH has no control over region-locked stuff so you can't really blame them.
Street Fighter history part 3, dubstep rap and mix, graffiti wall and odd Nickelodeon cartoon cameo
@Timic83 Do you expect them to not post things just because some people can't view it even though most people can?
Disabled gamer Astaroth takes 1st place in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Tennessee event
@51 I recently started going to some tournaments and I have to say it is a RUSH to have a group of people watching while OOOHHH-ing and AHHHH-ing every combo/ultra/whatever. Maybe it's just my crowd, but there's never any smack-talk to the actual players, just people getting excited at the match. I feel that's the way it should be. No player bias, just pure hype and excitement. Both players can appreciate that. I thought the ...
Cross Counter Live with UltraDavid and James Chen
@16 Well said about Gootecks. He is a great player that would body 95% of us in a tournament setting but it's pretty obvious he's content with focusing on the production side of things. It seems like people think everyone has to be a Valle, Wong, or Latif to matter anymore. I have no idea why Gootecks gets the hate he does. He puts 110% into building this community, what the hell have the rest ...
Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Filipino Champ's matches against MarlinPie and ChrisG
That setup at 10:00 in the first video is awesome.
