Keyser_Soze Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 https://multistre.am/capcomfighters/evo1/evo2/evo3/evo/layout14/ Looks like SFV has fallen off, not the main event on the last day. That's saved for Smash, which means I won't be disappointed if I don't see it. Also, special shout out to @GameDadGrant when I mentioned Under Night a year ago and he said, "nah" and look it's at Evo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Everyone is happy SFV isn't the main(last) event as now no one has to stay up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclyp Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 I would certainly choose to watch SFV over Smash. I find Smash actually kind of annoying to watch. But I guess it is kinda nice I can go to bed early. Crazy that Dragon Ball isn’t in the last day at all. I enjoyed watching that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameDadGrant Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Ooh, Smash as a main final. Neat! Also so looking forward to Tekken 7 and Samurai Shodown matches. And I guess learning about this Under Night...! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I put the schedule up there. I was surprised as well since It's pretty much the newest and most popular fighting game right now it should have had a Sunday showing. Oh well!

Haha no yeah you presented the information and I blew it. I would appreciate an entire new approach to fighting game announcing. I would like them to calm the hell down on most matches and elevate the tenor when the matches and the moment actually requires it. I also don't need (so many) INSTANT comments of what just happened (NICE COUNTER, OH HE MISSED THE PUNISH), etc. I dunno, maybe that stuff is interesting to people who know fighting games in and out, but it is just so unapproachable to an average fan like me. I would like the announcer to discuss the big picture of the match - what broad strategies are being implemented, what adjustments are then being made, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say James Chen probably offers the most insight like that though, he's less of a hype announcer and more of a theory guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 As someone who hyped themselves up about not caring about seeing smash, I watched a fair amount of top 8 but had to go to work so I missed the last few final matches and then got kinda bummed I didn’t see it since I got so invested in it. 🤦🏼♀️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameDadGrant Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 The ledge guarding in EVO-level Smash would have pissed me off so much, LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 Well, I ended up going back and watching it. Nice to see the underdog (?) win, even if it was 1 vs 2 or losers vs winners or whatever. Plus with the events over this weekend a Mexican being the champion is even sweeter.

Bloodporne Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I didn't wanna make a new thread specifically so I figured I'd ask in here: Since I'm giving SFV a shot as my first online fighter, anyone in here currently playing it? I assume you can do direct matches with your friends etc.? I've only done random Ranked and Casual matches thus far and would like to try that out. I'm sure anyone would fucking crush me but still curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not currently playing it and haven't played it in a while so I guess I'd be as good as you. I'd have to re-install it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
