Hayatei vs pl ended 3 1, he got mixed real hard by smoke. Smoke is actually insane lol
Yeah he is I wish I saw it.
Ring Ropes vs. Dragon 10-0 MU.
You can't proclaim the game's death after a 200 player major. It sucks that your scene peaced out, but that doesn't mean it's dead everywhere else.
You're confusing local and offline presence (outside of majors) for the game dying, locals are dead for pretty much everything but smash aren't they?
No shit, he didn't select the character and walk away. My point is he went to Erron when it mattered most and used that character, still people complain about alien.
Sonya is a potato. Even more of a hype killer than Alien/Mileena.
I love watching Scar's Demolition Sonya, personally. That 67% x-ray combo was sick. and I can't imagine someone not enjoying his Smoke. Some of the reads and punishes he was making with those Smoke Phases were amazing to see.
We're about to end up with 600 entrants at EVO and a $50,000 pot bonus for a 'dead game'.
For everyone still passionate about the game, we should be supporting them and prioritizing the long-term/overall health of the community over just this current title.

Much like the great "only top 16/8/3/1 matters" debate, being at EVO is irrelevant to non-players unless you have the biggest numbers.
So can we come to a consensus that the safe 50/50's into more 50/50's meta the anti-hype to fg's
Yea I'm not sure why people think this character is mediocre. He carries a vortex, the smoke bomb is safe(correct me if I'm wrong) and gets a free "out" of wakeup pressure with faze. Seems good to me. Just because a character doesn't have an armored wakeup attack doesn't mean it's buns.
The *crucial* difference is that Mika always has to get past your footsies range in order to initiate her dumb stuff, regardless of where she is on screen. She doesn't have a teleport, and she has stubby limbs. There are zero crazy mixups she can activate in neutral that cannot be easily avoided and reacted to. If Mike is applying her mixups, it means that you messed up on your anti airs and/or whiff punishes, or she significantly out-footsied you.
It's like a trend to call underused variations/lowtiers hype, regardless of if they're actually entertaining to watch or not. Back during KiT, people used to enjoy watching characters like Demo Sonya and Takeda in top 8s, but now apparently they're considered hype killers and it's an issue when even one makes it to top 8 despite the fact that in terms of aesthetics and gameplan, they play roughly the same as they did half a year ago.
These are all fair points entirely. Thanks for having a regular discussion. I'm on the same page as everyone else with Alien's range fwiw
I've mentioned this before, it's kinda backwards I agree, people '5050s' when they're the one getting 5050'd to death, but when they're watching it they love it.
