SCR Caps Injustice at 64 Entrants

This needs to be discussed. I'm so tired of Injustice being tossed aside at every Major like a sidegame when it has CONSISTENTLY had the 3rd highest entrants. We have to stop tolerating this and take a stand for our community, otherwise no one else will. What I really don't understand, besides regional bias, is how they could jack the KOF cap to 128 when their own champion doesn't even show up for locals. Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but has KOF even been streamed since August at Levelup? It's outright disrespectful, and a complete contradiction to their ramblings of "We'll support you as long as you support your game." It's not even totally about it being new or an NRS game. Injustice deserves a MINIMUM of 120 entrants, solely based on turnouts in the past.

It's most likely for scheduling/planning reasons. I'm sure if the pre-reg list exceeds, or rather, reaches 64, they will consider raising the cap limit. I say "consider" because it seems that space and time are the prime reasons why these caps were put into place.

Wow....with only a 64 entrant cap....and if they show no sign of possibly raising it within a fairly reasonable time fashion...I wont go.

Wow, that makes it kind of tempting to just go to a different major. If I'm booking a ticket to fly down I'd rather have as many people as possible, and be guarenteed a spot. 64 seems ridiculous.

Oh look

a way to force people to pre-reg.

about fucking time.

EGP is running KI/Injustice/MK9 at SCR.

I wouldn't freak out over something so tentative as registration caps.

i think a SCR roll call thread is in order

The real thing to be pissed off about is the stage select rule.

- First pick is random stage select. Loser selects next stage.

Stupid.

Really? goddamnit.

If EGP is running it, Compton will for sure change the rules for what is best suited for a tourney experience.

Have a little faith in EGP, they do deliver good tournaments....

Well i'm way up north, so I don't have much experience in how they run things. That's good to hear though.

 

[DevilMaySpy]

I believe in EGP to run the tournament, but I'm not sure if they can control registration like that.

So they counterpick character AND stage?

Before making any judgement calls you need to read the SRK article in full. It's not like Injustice is the only game capped at 64... there are many others including Killer Instinct and Mortal Kombat.

Closing this one to open another to properly announce.
