[SaltFace NS]

Not surprised no Harley's in Top 8 this time. Now who beat Pig?

 

[Slymind]

Bummer, Lobo on top 8 would've been perfect.

Props to Maxter, amazing showing.

 

[Fred Marvel]

TTG for DLC

 

[CrimsonShadow]

None of the Next Level or Break regulars are doing well.

Hold this.

NEC 14 Top 8:

1 NLBC Regular -- First Bane to make Top 8 at a major (and in winners no less)
1 GGA Player
2 WNF Regulars
1 Norcal Guy
1 Florida player
1 Break Regular
1 Midwest King

 

[coolwhip]

Hold this.

Still, so many WC guys in the top 8 of an EC major is a blow-up, especially since they won so many head-to-head match-ups, including the biggest of them all (KDZ vs. Theo).

 

[16 Bit]

Hold this.

True, I'll hold that. Two of them delivered. However the WC still has more in the top 8 than EC in their own major. This tournament is still like Anaheim were we're done pretending The Break is the only weekly that matters.

We'll see who wins tomorrow. I'm hyped. This is in the running for tournament of the year.

There are 3 EC players (Florida, NY and NJ) and 3 WC (2 SoCal and 1 NorCal), along with 2 midwest.

Exactly. I'm not holding much here.

Florida doesn't count for East Coast. Get out of here with that. They're their own region.

When CEO was the only road to EVO qualifier everyone went ape bout how EVO ignored the EC. Nice try sir.

Then NorCal doesn't count for West Coast, since it's similarly far away from SoCal?

The WC called CEO an EC major.

 

[16 Bit]

Who thinks Noobe was out there working his ass off to represent the Break and Next Level and EC? The fuck out of here.

 

[16 Bit]

Then NorCal doesn't count for West Coast, since it's similarly far away from SoCal?

No. They're sister scenes. They support/play each other. They're like GGA/CoCo or Break/Next Level. Just a little further.

No one thinks of Noobe as an East Coast player. It's downplaying the work he did here.

Lol and Ducky was slaving away representing the SoCal crew?

 

[16 Bit]

Lol and Ducky was slaving away representing the SoCal crew?

He was repping WC. He identifies as WC.

 

[CrimsonShadow]

He was repping WC. He identifies as WC.

Ok. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say Florida isn't on the East Coast (*raised eyebrow*). Regardless -- this tournament is ridiculous, and it's been great to see everyone from all of the different areas do their thing.

IGAU is strong all over; and looking more alive than ever.

Still, so many WC guys in the top 8 of an EC major is a blow-up, especially since they won so many head-to-head match-ups, including the biggest of them all (KDZ vs. Theo).

No doubt the WC represented majorly today and showed that they are here to stay.

 

[KingHippo]

It's completely different when we're talking about one state representation.

About two years ago I was prehypertension and I've spent that time bringing my blood pressure back down to a more healthy level. In one day, you have all undone my hard work. Seriously....every damn match....just incredible. I'm exhausted just from watching it. I don't care how early top 8 is. I'm setting two alarms and I'll be watching.

WB/DC/NRS have nothing to do with the success of the stream, don't put the blame on them.

NEC is a grassroots event, KombatNetwork is a community based stream that are local to the area.

KN also does not make money from doing this. If anything they lose money based on time spent/travel expenses/stream equipment expenses/bandwidth (since NEC is not supplying them with bandwidth however multiple other streams are running fine).

It has been mentioned a few times here and in stream that they are looking for a 4g card that someone in the community will likely have to fund from their own pocket.

Maybe blame is not the right word but my point was that NRS should be involved/more supportive so KN doesn't have to lose money while basically promoting Injustice for free.

Once the stream came on I was reminded that someone is putting up some kind of resources with the "sponsors/affiliates" banners as well as the donation email (which I will be using and encourage others to do). The injustice matches were amazing today - that Tyrant/Theo match - my god....

In all honesty @GGA16Bit, we certainly dont consider ourselves east coast, we're down south. But we dont hate either way...we simply dont care. Were impartial to the region 'fighting'

 

[Rathalos]

I was busy all day and missed it : (

I'm rooting for Tyrant vs Grrr grand finals.

 

[GGA Jeremiah]

Anyway, 16 "MMH's teleport is fine" Bit has some explaining and apologizing to do.

Does he?

 

[T3rror]

I always thought Florida was in the South

 

[Mst]

VoDs?
