Game Order Announced for Evo 2016’s Sunday Finals, MKXL Makes The Cut!

[Juggs]

Evo 2016 Sunday Final Order was announced earlier today on @MrWizard's Twitter account:​

Smash 4 has over 2,000+ entrants and isn't in the Sunday Final line-up. MrWizard's response to this was: "The Sunday games had to be decided in January before we sold arena tickets."

So there you have it, what are your thoughts on the decisions?

MKXL 9AM SUNDAY HYPE!!!

COMING INTO THE ballroom still lit from the clubs , walking on stage for top 8 like this when you got 13th and forgot

 

[Alright RyRy]

I'm very curious to see what the current numbers are looking like for MKX.

 

[Sage Leviathan]

Disappointing, but one game had to be early.
To those that make top 8: drink responsibly. Ibuprofin won't do anything at 9am.

MKX...is before Marvel....when it has outperformed Marvel at every tournament for roughly a year....

 

[Juggs]

I'm just glad we made it to Sunday. EVO 2016 is gonna be insane!

I'm curious as well, maybe I can find some statistics

Yeah, but Marvel at least has some suspense. Anyone who doesn't already know who this year's EVO champ is... please let me in on the drugs you're holding.

 

[Clutch8]

Breakfast with a side of brutalities, please.

You mean the guy that lost in pools and got 4th overall just 2 weeks ago? Nothing is set in stone.

Breakfast with a side of brutalities, please.

Exactly, I'm actually looking forward to it being 1st. It's sometimes a little tedious waiting for some games you may not be super interested in to finish so you can watch the game you want to watch. No waiting this EVO, we are first!

Cmon breh. Marvel is the hypest game at every evo ever.

 

[coolwhip]

From a selfish, perspective the timing is perfect since it would be at around 6 pm over here.

 

[Slymind]

What is the criteria? number of entrants?

 

[Somea2V]

Cmon breh. Marvel is the hypest game at every evo ever.

I don't know about that. KI's top eight was incredible last year, a real show stealer.

 

[Dizzy]

The finals order is basically 100% the EVO TOs discretion. They have consistently said that entry numbers do not influence the finals order. Previously they have mentioned entry numbers as reasons for games being included the following years but I believe they abandoned saying that as well.

Basically, they will do what they want and say hold that shit.

 

[madcityblazer]

The bias is real. This is beyond disappointing.

is theres a pot for evo?
