finally got through the archives...Just finished... some impressive matches, but with a few exceptions I think the US is way ahead of the rest of the pack. Can not wait for evo.
Thanks to the ESL.. personally the online weeklies never interested me, but that live comp was godlike. Great stuff.
Shout outs to Foxy, Nevik and Lar you guys blew me away! As did Sector and Cyrax .. I mean Katsup and Mustard!
Also shout out to Pig vs Fox. People are calling Nevik vs Foxy, but I think Pig vs Sonic was the hypest match in ages. It didn't even look like a MKx match. It was high level fighting game shit.. Footsies, spacing of the GODS! Zoneing control into rush down strikes.. wtf am I watching street fighter? Man that was so amazing! Then that MKx unique switch into possessed to change it up.. wow.
Extra awesome goes to Reo.. while everyone else is puffing chests and talking shit. You wish your oponant good luck and show respect. Your a class act all the way from sportsman to a pro at the stick. Respect earned by giving like that is beyond the reach and comprehension of most competitors!
And Sonic.. w..t...f... Legend.. there is no other word for ya... Been cheering for you for a while now and I hope you take evo. Even though Yomi has some great personalities my tendency is to always side with the outcasts, seeing people cheer when you loose just makes me want you to fuck em up and win even more.
Hope I see you all at EVO, thanks for the entertainment! Seriously I just watched top bunch of game before posting and I'm still hype as hell.
. Event looked good but i do not think it should have taken 7 hours for the tournament. Ketchup and Mustard where great on commentary and i would love to see them do both the American and European Tournaments.
