[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

No Top 8 Curse. CD Jr VS 16 Bit is next.

 

[garik16]

What are you talking about?

Well until just now, through 4 rounds, we managed to see 0 matches involving:
REO
CD Jr
Riu48
Maxter
Detroit
Curbo

on stream. And it's not like t hey didn't have a number of good opponents in their way.

CDjr is going in, what you said just didn't make any sense. lol

 

[garik16]

Yeah, 3 hours and 6 minutes in. After numerous cruddy matches.

So what? This is just random, we didn't see Tyrant, Denzel, Krazie, Mit yet too.

 

[garik16]

You're missing my point. My point is that we should have seen one of those 10 players (including the 4 we mentioned). There was no need to show say two Mortyseinfeld matches against non-top players - one such match fine, but two - before any of those guys got on stream. Oh and we also got PL vs JediRobb (Who not only plays Sindel, but isn't a fulltime MK guy), Scar v Spiritgun (Instead of Scar v Dizzy!)

Heck two of these 10 PLAYED EACH OTHER (MIT and Maxter) OFF stream. And of course there was Curbo v Ikizzle. And the half a dozen other good matches (REO-PBoardPlayer, etc.).

Just odd selection of matches as if they didn't want to show the better players before the later rounds.

 

[Syntsui]

Pig vs Riu48 match of the day by far, just... wow

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

Evil Riu beats Pig Of The Hut 3-2 in one of the best matches I've seen in a LONG time.

How do you beat Armow?
With Armor.

All these ads are making me mad God Of War Ascension isn't out until March.

 

[Syntsui]

Denzel vs Curbo, OMG MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

 

[garik16]

PL 3-0s Morty, setting up the PL-CDJr Rematch.

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

DENZELL TERRY GIVES NO FUCKS

NONE

3-0 AND A VICTORY OVER KABAL

NO FUCKS

 

[Syntsui]

So Curbo's kryptonite is Sub Zero... WHO IS THE FISH NOW??

 

[xenogorgeous]

Denzel did good job, zoning and keeping a very good corner pressure ....

 

[garik16]

And that my friends is why Cage is not an elite top 5 character. Some amazing matchups....and then 3-7 matchups vs Kabal and Sub-Zero, neither of whom is unpopular.

Just not a great fit in the metagame.

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

Come onnnnnnnn, Shang mirror...let's seeeeeeeee that Shang mirror...


SHANG MIRROR!


WOW, what an awesome comeback by Detroit.

Did you have a Sektor mirror with Maxter?

 

[CRUM]

Was MK not streamed at all today at ECT or is it me? I think I saw like 5 or 6 total matches and then that was it.

There was at least an hour+ on the main stream of MK. I have no idea about if there was a separate stream.

 

[CRUM]

Yeah I thought Kombat Network was covering it. I only saw it on Team Sp00ky for a little bit.

 

[Zoidberg747]

Not enough bandwidth to cover the KN stream. Sp00ky came to the rescue and streamed it for an hour.
