[Vandy]

The blatant disrespect towards vman is absolutely absurd. He is a fan favorite. People wanted to watch his matches. You fail to stream one of them as he performs a colossal upset using a character variation that is considered to be awful. Then his second matchup you ALSO fail to stream despite 30 minutes of rioting chats, Tweeting - etc. And it supposedly was a very close 3-2 that we won't get to see.

I'm pissed. Shit venue. Shit host. Shit connection and you failed the fans repeatedly. Hope you guys get significantly less attention next year because you don't deserve it.

Yeah, pretty much

when is top 8? how many hours from this post?

 

[Emperor Enigma]

I can understand them not streaming VMan's other matches but I don't understand the decision to have the match with Scar happen off-stream on a different system. Yeah, there were scheduling problems but just one more match would have been okay, especially one that people were clearly looking forward to.

It turns out Mikemetroid was in the basement tampering with the internet he decided if Kombat Network couldnt ruin KIT hed make sure hed give it his best shot.

Vandy this tournament was great, stream kinda sucked but it is what it is sometimes things are out of your control. From what I saw it was a fantastic tournament. ART did a good job too with all the issues. My favorite streamer!

 

[kabelfritz]

I don't understand why they couldn't just play on the same system. I mean, Scar was right there.

because they were already an hour behind schedule. other people wanna play their games too. there were times when NRS games where not the headliners and we profited from fair treatment too, so pass it on to others now.

not really he deserve to be mad, they should be able to check if hotels connection is shit or not (i dont know what kind of hotel theyre at but I never had any single good experience with hotel internet), and then have some kind of backup plan, and the last match vman v scar is quite anticipated, its dissapointing really, but better than NEC

You sound like an autistic man-child so much in this post it scares me.

they had a backup plan, thats why we had a stream at all. there have been way worse streams and this was probably the best we could get under these conditions.

Your lack of perspective is strange. Look at it from our point of view. Someone you've supported for a long time who has alot of nay sayers competes in a tournament. People laugh at him. He is a combo specialist. He plays an unviable variation. He trains against the AI. So to peoples credit their expectations is mostly what you've come to expect. He has a lack of experience against offline contenders.

The general public doesn't think much of him. His fans have watched and learned from him for years. They support him. He competes. He does well. Better than many expected. We get to see him play. He gets alot of appreciation. He isn't playing a Tanya. Or a KL. He is doing things differently. His way. He continues his onslaught of suprising victories. Getting alot of attention now. He is in losers. Charted up against foxy - most people call it a tough break. Consider him already lost to one of EU's best who plays an s tier character.. but he eliminates the great. Defying odds. OFF stream. You don't get to see it. You don't get to support your homie. But hey. Atleast he won and the chat of the stream freaks out. What an upset. We all better see his next match right? Well when it comes to his next match we also don't get to support him. He loses a tight game. So it was excitement you didn't get to take part in. Even though you've waited for hours expecting it. And why? For thirty minutes the chat had erupted. Begging for us to see this one last match but nah. Silent ears. Then we don't even get to hear how the match went. That's bullshit and if it was you in our shoes you'd be irritated too. That's not even mentioning the constant stream drops. We feel cheated and we have the right to feel that way.

 

[Goatness]

You can't always get what you want.

 

[trufenix]

Seriously? When entire top 32s, pools, and even whole tournaments have gone entirely unwatched / recorded at other events due to streamer or TO incompetence, we are REALLY throwing Vandy under the bus for missing a single players matches?

He is officially the TO we need, but not the one we deserve right now.

 

[Syzoth]

We care much less about the stream dropping. They brought it back. They tried.

What we care about was that we didn't get what we were there to spectate.
@themanDan
Your attempt to offend me by referring to a sincere and severe disorder is much more childish than my complaints. I have genuine reasons to voice my complaint. You're just putting words on a screen behind a monitor to try to demean someone you'd never try to demean in person.

shall i name all the ridiculous matchups i would like to have seen but didnt? i saw vman in pools yesterday, if he wanted more stream time he shouldve made it to winners. im disappointed too but this just happens when you have a tight schedule and bad hotel internet, both things that are hard to completely avoid for TO's. im glad we had 8 hours of pool streams, 2 more of top 32, 2 exhibitions and the prime spot on the main stream, plus injustice on the main stream. im not american but from what i hear vandy has been THE best TO for nrs games for 3 years now, so stop this bashing as if this was a pile of shit. there have been tons of majors who deserve it more.

 

[Syzoth]

Honestly I do appreciate the stream. These things do take alot of effort. I've been to several. I'm just blinded by my disappointment in the way vman's matches wound up being offstream.

I'm not the only one either. If you watched the stream via twitch you saw the chat. A small portion of those that'd agree with me will be on test your might. Vman worked very hard to get as far as he did and I wish he had the spotlight time he earned. He would have gotten some needed recognition.

i think we all would liked some more matches, but some of the stuff we did not see a bit of:

- killer xinok
- honeybee
- illusions
- Cowboy vs reo
- DJT and MIT
- forever king and jr.

it was just bad luck for vman

 

[Vandy]

After GGXrd finishes we are going to do some MKX exhibitions on Arturo's stream.

I found Vman and he will be playing on stream first.

After all this, he still manages time to find for VMan just so his followers can see him fight high level comp on stream.

At this point the rhetoric should end and Vandy should be appreciated for the constant and consistent efforts he always puts forth for this communities games.
