    When we went in 2011, there was a pre-evo night out on the Thursday that was great craic.
    EVO won't be running any events on Thursday this year because they're focusing on trying to get the 9 main games to actually run on time.

    However, Insert-Coins ( http://www.insertcoinslv.com/ ) is having some sort of shindig on Thursday night definitely and there's a Skullgirls thing out in HitBox Arcade ( http://skullgirls.com/forums/forums/index.php?threads/salty-cupcakes-evo-edition.1948/ ).

    I feel that I'm obligated to give this a mention:

    Soulcalibur V has been given a spot in the official side-tournament at EVO. A surprisingly high number of top players are attending, and it will be streamed separately from the official EVO stream on Saturday.
    http://8wayrun.com/threads/jul-12-20...egas-nv.16313/

    Will probably miss the majority of it, as I'll be at DoC, but it's good to see the game is at least being kept alive.

    I fell asleep around 1, could someone give a rough synopsis of how the pools ended? Any big upsets?

    This is a good synopsis.

    I love Tokido, but that haircut DOES make him look like a North Korean dictator.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,699 ✭✭✭deathrider


    I really enjoyed MK's set last night.done fantastic fights near the end. Watched a load of SF during the day too. Now, I wouldn't be familiar with the names of any of the big SF players, but goddamn, there were done of the best gamers I've ever seen yesterday. Some throughly stunning fights... And one terrible Gief.

    Winners bracket
    DM|Xian (Gen) vs. HORI|Sako (Ibuki, Evil Ryu)
    EG|PR Balrog (Balrog) vs. MCZ|Tokido (Akuma)

    Losers bracket
    MCZ|Daigo (Ryu) vs. Infiltration (Akuma)
    AvM|GamerBee (Adon) vs. Haitani (Makoto)


    Xian vs Sako is hard to call, but probably in Sako's favour.

    PR Rog vs Tokido, can he defeat another Akuma?

    Daigo vs Infiltration, GRUDGE MATCH, LET'S GO!!

    Gamerbee vs Haitani, fray for the Bee!

    Only one duplicate character in top 8.

    Why does this need another balance patch?

    That doesn't mean the game is balanced tbh. Great to see character diversity though


  • Registered Users Posts: 955 ✭✭✭GorySnake


    They're just doing it to spice the game up and bring some interest back to it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    Evo so far:
    • Where's hellpockets?
    • Ban Dividers.
    • SUPER TIGER PANTHER PARTY


  • Registered Users Posts: 574 ✭✭✭TheMikenyan


    This is what I love about Evo. The top 8 is constantly in flux. Infiltration whitewashed everyone last year, and now he's in Losers bracket, while the top 4 from the previous year were all knocked out, save for Daigo. I actually can't wait to see this go down!
