guys, evo streaming's been a "blowup" in terms of *all* games as far as missing good matches goes

it's just completely impossible to catch everything even with the biggest names, this event has way too much to pack into just 3 days. too many games, too many players. would need like 20 streams to get the coverage you get at other majors lol

Resolution through knowledge and resolve.
Utterly disappointed so far, not with the play, but with the decisions and overall laziness of those running it.

No DLC, skins, or brutalities - really? That's not MKX. They're playing an incomplete version.

The brackets were completely random. That's just laziness. So, we had S Chris G playing an S player, S+ Pig playing an S Ducky, S++ DJT playing S Coach Steve, right after two B level scrubs traded missed combos for three games. Plus, button checks on screen while other matches go on. Seriously, who was in charge of setting things up? Is MKX not a priority at EVO. It seems like it is getting 2nd class citizen treatment.

What about the players that play DLC characters? What about the fans watching getting an incomplete experience? Seriously, I'm angry and I'm not even there. It seems to me that this is an epic miscue.

The seeding part was left to TYM to contribute. There was a thread about that: http://testyourmight.com/threads/evo-2015-ranking-thread.53734/

If the seeding is bad, then it's our fault.

Not saying Capcom illuminati, but at this point it's clear that whoever is the NRS handler for Evo doesn't care about the game. Or is just doing a really shit job at it.

You can't seed people based on personal biases, previous games, and favorite players -- you have to seed them only based on current results.

Whatever you think about Pig, Ducky, or Coach Steve (and I like all 3 of them as players), if you're not placing at majors, you deserve the same chances as everyone else as far as seeding is concerned.
