The rest of the games are coming on ^SOON^

Watching blazingpoo right now, kill all murakumos

>uni ended yesterday
what the hell man, this game is an evo mainstage ffs

>>712729728
All the excitement for UNI seems to have been exclusive to UNIST.

How can someone watch GG Strive and not sleep?

I love Hakumen 6B, yes I do.

>>712732419
i can't believe I'm saying this because I despise the SNKhizos that inhabit this board, but I think I'm more excited for City of the Penguins top 8 than this

>>712729728
Let's be real, we all know it was a pity mainstage

>>712729542
I changed my mind, actually kill all Rachel mains.

OUTRUNNING THE CIRCLE OF TIME
UNDECIDED

>board is so completely taken over by zoomers these threads struggle to stay alive
you hate to see it. Thank god I don’t visit this shithole much anymore

>>712733013
It was probably so they could have at least one effort game there

>>712735553
No one's stopping you from staying in your discord server, xister

>>712735553
On-topic threads basically die at 10-30 posts consistently unless there's some sort of bait in the OP or early in the thread. In other words, any sort of sincerity simply results in thread death.

FotM stuff like Deltarune is the exception to this, but even real video game releases like Mario Kart 8 have relatively slow threads that have a fraction of the PPM of bait / outrage / coomer threads. Things have legitimately been really bad since the hack. I started trying to actually use filters, sort the catalog by creation date, and manually filter bad threads, and it has just made me realize how bad it is. On a good day I have 90% of threads filtered, and you very quickly notice people making the same low quality threads over and over even when they're deleted / die.

Az is so fucking hype, bros.

>>712736029
>In other words, any sort of sincerity simply results in thread death.
Kind of pathetic that’s how the whole internet has become. Posts need to be under 1000 layers of irony/ragebait to get any interaction

Rachel cute

these dbfz sets are great

>>712737196
Don't care what anyone says, dbfz is always a fun watch to me.

Is Strive worth getting back into or is Gogetabros and his fucking annoying ass stans still plaguing the game?

>>712737527
The what now?

>>712737527
I think he’s gone but Potemkin is top tier now so it’s the worst strive has ever been

>>712737835
oh thank god.
I remember being decently good in the general back in s1 but I wonder how much things have changed. mostly stopped playing because playing got boring and trying to play with people in the general just had them dicksucking gogetabros like 24/7 holy fuck that shit was obnoxiously annoying

Azrael or Es better or easier?

>>712737980
>Krillens and Ginyu's in top 8
Damn that's fucking cool

>>712724950 (OP)
Sagat trailer today?

>>712736029
Same, its a damn shame there aren't any altchans with enough traffic. It was hilarious watching these retarded samefags try to pull their shit on a board with IDs.

>>712738731
Doubt it we might see it at Evo.

>>712738994
>user was banned for replying to himself 11 times

>>712738567
They're both stupidly braindead characters but Es probably makes the simplest Strive characters look like 200IQ characters

>>712739008
August is way too late. We're getting Sagat in the first week of july.

>>712736029
filtering "?" on all boards removes so much trash it's unreal.

watch cf

>>712739214
No because that is still to soon. People are still cooking with Elena.

Rooting for any Carl player to win.

>>712737413
That one EVO with Fusions+Lab Coat mirror match GFs was pretty tough to watch.

This is the "OG anime fighter for true fighting game fans" huh, why is it so braindead then

>>712739624
>OG anime fighter for true fighting game fans
That would be Accent Core

>>712739624
It was the easy one when it came out but now it’s relatively difficult

>>712739624
>"OG anime fighter for true fighting game fans"
Where is the MBAACC stream

>>712735553
Because most of /v/ doesn't play fighting games but is the very first to cry about them.

I'm watching sf6. Kind of surprised how many big names have gotten eliminated from the bracket

the real OG anime fighter is VSAV

>>712739561
Yeah, but that was the same year every gf at evo was a mirror. The fusion/lab coat meta was a low point tho.

>>712739624
Dragonball Z?
Yeah, that is a pretty easy game ngl

>>712739812
right now all westeners are saying stuff like "holy shit, sf6 is so shit any newbie can just eliminate legends in brackets"
while japanese players are praising the new generation saying how good they actually are
even then its just a hyperbole because its just a new couple of guys

>>712740384
It’s a mix of game knowledge being more accessible online than ever and tournaments not having as much seeding to let pros win.

>>712740645
>Seeding to let pros win
Good luck with that when offline are pulling in hundreds of entries

big beautiful woman playing KI right now

>>712741525
wait no it's VSAV

Damn, this is nice

>>712742159
Who is the Zooey king?

SoulCalibur Top 6 now

https://www.twitch.tv/jwonggg

is soul caliber 6 a good competitive fightan?

>>712743269
It's okay. New mechanics kinda suck. At least Reversal Edge was nerfed

Relius is so cool I wish I could play non dp characters

>>712743269
Balance wise I'd say the game is at it best it ever was, which is great for a game which season 1 was so bad to watch (reversal edge and 1 minute long supers every 10 seconds) that it almost killed the game altogether.
But if you want to compete and earn money by playing it then I'd say you're crazy.

COTW top 8 is going by fast.

mexican fusion fag defeated; team super confirmed better than gt

>>712742651
What characters are in top 8? Any Taki?

>>712744904
There was a Taki but they got knocked out.

Rivals 2 top 8 starting

https://www.twitch.tv/maxmode_fgc

diaphone pointing out all the fatal fury top 8 are older than him (35). why aren't zoomers picking up fatal fury?

>>712746123
Lots of mechanics to get past plus cotw plays like a old fighting game so most zoomers would rather stick to sf6 since zoomers have been dominating in sf6.

>>712746123
Too expensive in braziland (we're their target audience).

>>712746123
People talk about how CotW is for muh older fighting game fags but the truth is it's just a sack of shit and older people in the community are more willing to try out bad games before dropping them

>>712746123
Zoomers have absolutely no reason to care about "legacy" or old games.

>legacy game
>Has drive impact expect it is as good as the complete shitters hype DI up to be
>GG tier damage despite not being an anime game
>Can't go two tournaments without 3 repeats of boring top tiers in top 8's
>Feint mechanic that doesn't actually work well as a feint in 90% of the cases but makes the game clunkier by increasing blockstun despite nothing coming out
>Counter state where the opponent is just thrown to the top of the screen for a slower CH than Strive's mega freeze
Anyone who acts like CotW is for the hardcore players is a poser who probably hypes up Blazblue and VF too.

>>712746801
What's your favorite Real Bout?

lmao hbox just spiking his broken controller

>>712747424
I've only played RBFF2. It's pretty good

>>712747357
Do not compare Blazblue to that slop

More carl

Does being a part of the FGC make you more racist or less racist?

>>712747624
hbox get so mad when he loses holy shit what a manchild

>>712747997
I believe in the TerumiGOD

>>712748021
more, just check nycfurby's and gootecks twitter

america is so fucking freeeeee

>>712739394
Bison literally released 1 month after Akuma

>>712747997
I normally enjoy BB but whenever Carl is on the screen I understand all the hate thrown this game's way. Same with Izanami and Arakune

>>712748102
he start playing extra lame too

>>712748205
>believing in Terumi
That was your first mistake.

>>712748415
Can't relate. Watching Carl is so fun.

>>712748596
He got the spiritual victory

>>712748409
True but Capcom doesn't really have a release schedule it will most likely be 2-3 month wait since they just had a big patch and and season 3 will have a new patch too.

>>712748415
and nine
literally the game ruining matchup for me

>>712735553
>"FGC"
>with twitch ads everywhere
>hurrdurr zoomers
No anon, you are the zoomers.

>>712748807
The first summer characters always released either late june or early july in both season 1 and season 2.

>>712748807
I fucking HATE the japanese design philosophy when it comes to patches and updates so much. Tekken devs seem to have started picking up the slightly with their speed but are fucking up in every other area and CotW seems like they're a bit faster than average for now but still, the industry is full of these retarded notions that character releases have to happen at random intervals and balance patches have to be done every other blue moon no matter fucked up shit is going on

idgi, why was Eddie in GG series never allowed to be semi decent outside of Strive season 1 but Carl in BB gets to stay perma SSS+ tier in every iteration???

>>712749024
he was good in xrd and xx and +r

>>712749024
lol
Zatofags cry with their mouths full when Pot was allowed to be top tier ONCE and never more.

>>712749057
He's not great in +R, he was in AC.

wizzy..............

>>712747624
He has switched controllers 4 times in 2 matches what is even going on with them, are they just falling apart?

why does wizzrobe do the when you nut but she still suckin face

>>712749504
He's a cheater and needs to use busted controllers to win

>>712748921
Yea but this will be a new season plus we don't know if Capcom is going to stick with summer release remember Elena was suppose to come out in the Spring.
>>712748939
Its even worse since Capcom has to play things somewhat safe with patches so most of the new patches are boring with little to no changes up outside of maybe like 2 or 3 characters .

>>712749024
Because Carl is an extremely babified version of Zato where the things that balanced him out just don't exist on him or are practically memes like the very basic notion of being able to kill the fucking summon of a puppet character
There's a reason BB had a that rep

>>712739624
anime games always were, difference is games before strive gave you far more freedom in mobility and how you can get your oppressive bullshit started.

>box won
lame

All is right in the world now

>>712749906
The actual limitations on movement between Xrd and Strive are practically null and I can't believe faggots like you still think the minor animation and momentum changes on air dashes are as big as they are, I swear a good majority of you guys never played these games seriously

FUCK falcon

Wizzchoke

>>712750062
xrd was such a step in the wrong direction its crazy that people pretend like it wasnt absolute dogshit like strive

>>712750062
Strive has shown like 13 people on /v/ actually played GG in any serious capacity.

>noel
gg go next

>>712742159
Is granblue somehow the most balanced fighting game?

>soul calibur 6 finals
>geralt vs 2b

>>712749776
Elena was only delayed cus of the Switch poo. There are no other releases that could delays Sagat.

>>712750062
Shut the fuck up Striver.

>>712750513
Don't worry, they'll find a reason

>>712750158
It's kinda funny how Millia is less mobile in Xrd than both in all variations of XX (I really miss her old proper air dash) and Strive
Playing Jam in +R and then in Rev2 is like night and day despite the character being mostly the same for the simple fact that the game is not even close to being as mobile so she's way easier to play and doesn't have to chase people as hard for example. Dizzy wasn't scooting around the screen in Rev2 while that was the majority of her gameplan thanks to that one specific busted air normal she had in +R, not having anyone even close to how Bridget plays etc. yet people act like Rev 2 was really that mobile.

>>712750361
Of the modern games, probably. It's funny because it was the most unbalanced modern fighting game when it released instead, last years CEO had 5 Nier's on the very same list even though she had a ton of nerfs at that point.

>>712750783
its absolutely wild they put in the dash normals and then only gave one character a dash l that you could link into a full combo with lol

>Sonic the Fighters
Finally a real fucking fighting game

Rachel!!!

Any interesting games to watch? I tend to stick to just EVO nowadays because it definitely breaks up the same americans showing up in top 8s

>>712751487
Any major from SF will have global players because Capcom went back to the points system for deciding who makes it to the cup. This event alone was stacked with most if the heavy hitters from EU and JP and even the up and coming south americans

>>712751487
Blazblue is cool so far

Chucklesbros... We were Beaned

>>712752038
its not fair he brought bombs to a fist fight

>>712750560
Found the poser

>>712751487
SF6 is stacked with international competitors if that's something that interests you. Melee just ended. Rivals of Aether 2 top 8 is on right now if you like platform fighters.

>>712724950 (OP)
>Community Effort Orlando
>During Father's Day weekend
Damn, does JFailey fit the Nagger (Fighting Games) stereotype of a dead beat father in his life?

>>712750361
Absolutely. Best thing about the game imo.

>>712751487
If you want to watch a vod the best Japanese Justice came to play +R and had some good games

glad wizzrobe lost fuck that autistic nigger and his hot asian gf. why does he get to fuck that and i don't

That Soul Calibur 6 top 4 was a fucking joke.
It's good this series is dead.

>>712736029
>Things have legitimately been really bad since the hack.
It's been bad since Hiroshim00t bought the site and m00t didn't nuke /pol/ (formerly: /n/, /new/) from orbit.

>>712752510
i mean don't get me wrong it's been a steady decline, but shit just fell off a fucking cliff recently. i wonder how many people simply decided to leave with the hack.

Bang (Carl)

>>712751683
I should start watching SF again then.
>>712752261
I'll keep it in mind

>>712752401
Bamco should just remake SC2 and call it a day.

Cvs2 top 8 is getting ready to start. I wonder if Justin is going to play ratio 4 Sagat again for top 8.

Power Stone Top 4 starting now: https://www.twitch.tv/tampaneversleeps2

>>712754254
This game is so much fun to watch

>>712754453
>1v1
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

i like Ant's Ranno but Marlon is the only person i trust to slay the tranny in winners being carried by Zetterburn. he would have won the first set if not for technical issues.

>>712739491
>>712752671
Meet the Robinsons lookin' ahh
let it go let it roll right off your shoulders lookin' ahh

>>712755221
Those backstage EVO streams where they played random shit like 4 player arcade Mario Bros. were so good

>only 8k for top 8
grim

I heard screams on smash stream but are clearly for other game, wich one it is?

More Carl

>>712758161
My guess is tekken 8 cuz I can hear it in the background on cvs2 stream too.

Jwong and James Chen look like brothers.

>corner rape into death
nice game you got there blazfags

Retards won't realize how insane lima is playing

>>712758474
>WHY ISNT THE WALL BREAKING
Strivers playing other games is so funny

>>712758313
Yup is tekken

Kill Carl. Behead Carl. Roundhouse kick a Carl into the concrete. Slam dunk a Carl into the trashcan. Crucify filthy Carl. Defecate in Carl's food. Launch Carl into the sun. Stir fry Carl in a wok. Toss Carl into active volcanoes. Urinate into Carl's gas tank. Judo throw Carl into a wood chipper. Twist Carl head's off. Report Carl to the IRS. Karate chop Carl in half. Curb stomp pregnant Carls. Trap Carl in quicksand. Crush Carl in the trash compactor. Liquefy Carl in a vat of acid. Eat Carl. Dissect Carl. Exterminate Carl in the gas chamber. Stomp Carls skulls with steel toed boots. Cremate Carl in the oven. Lobotomize Carl. Mandatory abortions for Carl. Grind Carl fetuses in the garbage disposal. Drown Carl in boiling shit. Vaporize Carl with a ray gun. Kick Carl down the stairs. Feed Carl to alligators. Slice Carl with a katana.

It's kinda sad how despite the FGC supposedly getting bigger, old games still have the same old gamers even with all the rereleases/collections/etc
Jebailey should not be getting top 8 in anything

Only a dead Hazama is a good Hazama.

>>712759219
+R and BBCF have gotten a few new faces the past few years

>>712759219
You just need to shill your favorite games better.
Mahvel 3 is filled to the brim with new gens like LT and all people did was hold a tournament like every week or so.
Game doesn't even have rollback ffs.

The new soundtracks in CFC2 are woeful

>>712758314
I keep thinking Steve-O is talking whenever James Chen is on comms

>>712759219
Old fighters have difficulty grabbing new players unless they have anime jank.

>>712759219
True but if its in any game at least its cvs2 a game that he is really good at. Jebailey was know before for being a tournament gatekeeper for cvs2.

>>712759219
Maybe JWongggg should stop stomping new players that buy the collections, then?

>>712759219
What do you mean sad idiot more people come and like the new games so they play the new games and don't touch the old ones it's common sense and the way it is for most things. Also the only old games that get new players is simple stuff like SF.

>>712759219
Games with good netcode have trouble bringing new players because all the top players will have a secret discord where they all play together and share tech

>>712759730
>he got wazzler’d
kek

>>712750062
This is the most retarded post ive read here in a decade.

>>712759730
you gonna learn today

The cooler Carl

>>712759998
It's not even up for debate, things like actionable frames off an IAD, general backdash lengths, pre jump frames etc are all very similar as in literally just a frame or two in range or the exact same, the actual movement done through these are different on a character basis but are again, on average the fucking same
You faggots do not play the games enough to warrant posting like these, "B-but it's completely different in my mind" is not a real fucking metric

>>712758313
>>712758972
I thought tekken was on its deathbed after a recent patch. Did they revert the changes or did the patch make things more "hype" friendly than game balancing heavy?

>>712760221
Don't know, but the screaming its heard on other streams because its at the center ring stage right now

>>712760221
The devs, contrary to regular Japanese dev dogma actually straight up apologized and I think Harada even implied the old balancing team got fired altogether in a tweet.
They also posted two emergency patches but those were minor so who knows, IIRC the main patch that's supposed to fix shit either this or the next month. It's still pure ass at this moment and it's hard to trust the devs considering they've lied multiple times about these things,
That and they had the balls to announce Fahk of all characters as the next DLC, that could be the single worst possible decision they could've taken in the DLC department altogether. Like straight up cancelling him and saying the pass will have 1 less character would be better tier.

>>712760221
>announce AK
>everything is alright now

Did they start CEO because EVO was being a bunch of retarded niggers about outfits and doing tranny catering bullshit dei garbage

>>712760514
I suppose it is a 'fahk u' to the players

>>712761009
CEO is older than all political shit anon.

>>712761009
Retarded newfag

>>712761061
>>712761140
I didn't know. I'm not autistic enough to play fighting games.

>>712759219
There's some newbies, but the genre just isn't growing as it should. The only game that seems to have succeeded at bringing in a large wave of people in the west is Strive, and they don't like other fighting games enough to play them just because. You need to reach out and convince people to try your game.

poor hazama....

>>712761165
It's an East Coast tourney (probably second biggest next to EVO). Leans more into fun with wrestling aesthetic and corny intros for top 8.

>>712761304
Not even Hazama can stop the Father's Day grand finals.

Love Carl, kill Relius

Of course Justin is playing his match while commentating kek.

i just tuned in, what did I miss
is melee over

It is time

>justin talking shit while playing
who set this up kek

God, I fucking love child abuse.

Good thing Fenrich wasn't there or we wouldn't have gotten a family reunion.

>>712761165
Too retarded to do a Google search as well apparently.

Damn. I thought the Zafina switch was a bad switch, but Ash is just too good.

>>712761595
wizzy choked a game 10 grand finals reset against hbox in melee after both of them had to slog through a tranny ICs player
a tranny frauded >her way through the rivals 2 bracket
tekken is kino
sf6 hasn't started but the daigo humiliation ritual is complete

>Meleefag

Blazubru is too fucking cinema, bros.

Get fucked

>>712762428
i was just watching justin
I'll give that tranny lover jebaily credit for still making his tournaments fun, I don't think any other event would have gone through the effort to mic him up and let him talk shit during winners finals of an old ass game

Why isn't Ash playing Nina? Did she get nerfed or just left in the dust with all the patches?

>>712762428
>ICs
i thought that character was dead with wobbling banned

>Think CotW balance arguments were overblown
>Watch top 8
>It is just exclusively top tiers plus a single Kevin who got gibbed quick
>The official matchup data shows top tiers have a bunch of 7:3 win rates too
Maybe I'll try this game after a year huh

what if Reina won a tekken major haha just kidding... unless?

Arslan Ass

>>712762904
nah as it turns out banning the "i win ggs" option lead to people actually developing the character

Overall this was a good tourney. I might even start CF again.

>>712762975
fly amanita was the only actual good IC player and he quit

>>712762919
brother cotw isn't going to have 100 players in a year

What's the character spread in Tekken 8 and Blazblue top 8's, bros

>>712762998
It's fun but snowballs very quickly unless you have the defense of Monarch

>>712763027
army (canceled)
slug (no idea where he went)
some other ICs from EU whose name i forget
mof (tranny)

character has a surprising amount of representation.

>>712763060
Blazblue is over, characters I saw were like Carl/Relius/Es/Rachel/Noel/Hazama/Susanoo/Kagura but some of them might have been outside of top 8

I miss how Anna used to play, Tekken 8's Anna is not my Anna

>>712763060
Not really paying attention to T8 but I saw
>Anna
>Reina
>Jack
>Eddy
>Drag
>Nina

Did they ever improve the optimization side of Tekken 8?

it's easy

>Ban characters
>Ban stages
>Ban items
>Powerstone 1 fags don't ban shit or bitch about "The faster character will just scoop all de items" and "Some stages characters will take advantage of blah blah blah"
And they want us to take it seriously.

>>712764001
they banned the tech so the character wasnt banned

pakiGODS showing why they own tekken

>>712764086
>>712764334
What about Steve? Isn’t that like if Strive banned Happy Chaos?

I hate Pakis so much it's unreal.

>>712764152
If Smash had no rules you'd be seeing alot of the same matches play out the same way every time (whichever character can most abuse the level design against other characters that can't or RNG no competition victories with items on).

>>712764440
steve is fine

>>712764440
what about steve
hes a character in a totally different game
and hes unbanned
so i dont really get what you're trying to do here

god willing, we won't see a paki win Evo

>>712764464
Called it, powerstone > Smesh bros.

>>712764440
>steve
the nu-smash community is a different carton of eggs. they should have banned Bayonetta. they should have banned Steve. unfortunately, i think daddy Nintendo won't let them ban Steve, which is hilarious. even if Nintendo didn't disallow it, nu-Smash is filled with indecisive pussies who refuse to take a stand against everything and anything killing their game, including pedophilia.

anyways wobbling isn't even comparable to Steve / Bayonetta / Meta Knight, despite how broken the latter two were.

anyone wanna play some strive. coming back from a break

>>712764551
I was talking in general Smash players seem ban happy. He was banned for a while. Are any characters completely banned in melee?

>>712764658
Ew anon

>>712764658
Depends. Do you main the tranny?

>>712764658
>coming back from a break
Same, what region bro? If NA, just host

>>712764649
They tried to ban steve some places did for a hot moment then Nintendo was like "nope not allowed"

>>712764610
You can have your opinion. Meanwhile Smash Bros has multiple locals, weeklies and general tournaments whereas Power Stone is barely a competitive thing. Not dissing them or anything but it is what it is. Don't even like the Smash scene in general.

>>712746801
Why are you a Hue Monkey?

>>712764714
NA.
>>712764698
nope i main gio

>>712764684
nothing outside of stagelists and items get banned, wobbling getting banned was a huge deal when it happened
there was a movement to ban metaknight back in the brawl days but no one stuck to that since the rest of the brawl characters are different flavors of gay

>>712764721
yeah i watched that one tournament in New York where they banned Steve and it was the first time i felt anything resembling positive emotion toward ultimate in years. like it was legitimately great. shame.

meanwhile the average tournament plays out like this. hell, as i type this, a pretty good rushdown player (kola) is getting absolutely fucking cheesed by some faggot fraud who has never won a major because he's not actually good, he just plays your typical non-interactive ultimate character (snake).

>>712764649
Why would they ban strong characters? That’s only done for literal boss characters in most games. HC was ridiculous and still is strong but he was never banned.

>jwong getting to grand finals using 1 character in a 3 character game
so fucking based

>>712764581
I remember when Korea used to be Tekken land. Arslan and co have certainly changed the narrative

>>712761203
Granblue got people too, as did SF6 and Tekken 7.
New players want to play new games with other new players. It’s that simple.

>>712764883
bro there were like 2 steves in this top 8 stop bitching

>>712764784
popularity != quality
I mean come on man, capcom literally forgot about powerstone and JUST now made a collection for the games.
If smash bros was an even worse game, you'd still see tournes because people would still play it. Hell I see WAAAY more tournaments for fukin fortnite.
What does that tell you? Fortnite the better game?

>>712764931
And at a certain period of time Japan did even better than Korea before falling into obscurity, it happens. I'm just happy more people are playing fighting games and from different countries and regions too, I think it's one of the nicer parts of the fighting games even though I would absolutely not expect fucking Pakistan out of all possible places to come on and dominate Tekken

>>712764927
Wazzler is wazzling. Also Sagat is cheap in that game.

>>712764883
actually now that i think about it, i think that tournament might have been in the same venue as this webm. the sheer fucking irony.

>>712764897
you don't understand how broken meta knight and bayonetta were. they were functionally boss characters on a completely different level. steve is a different case. he's less broken, but the way he's designed is so fundamentally bad for the health of the game that there's no defending it unless you have multiple head injuries. i've watched a decent amount of steve and he's basically happy chaos but worse. just completely non-interactive and forces you to play a minigame that so heavily favors him that it invalidates entire characters based on whether they can / can't break his blocks in 1 hit.

ah strive bro can you host in the middle of a ft10

>>712761203
Strive's ranked lobby/floor system is so retarded. Just simplify it.

>>712765046
Unironically if it did yes. Smash Bros actually saved EVO before the Sony buyout when they allowed it many years ago. The scene supports the game even if alot of it is bad.

Also Capcom is afraid to dip their toes in any new FGs after MVC Infinite and SFxT.

>>712765279
They are, this summer. They haven't announced a real date but they did showcase a proper non tower ranked mode and said they would move the tower to be like the park or something

WAZZLED

>>712764997
and each of those steves ends up adding, at minimum (assuming they're both in losers of top 8, which they rarely are) 2 long, boring, fraud-ass sets to bracket. in reality, it's closer to 80% of sets having some AIDS character like Steve, Sonic, G&W, or ROB in them and grinding any fun to a screeching halt. ultimate top 8s are regularly so dog shit that there are only 1 or 2 real sets with 2 "honest" characters fighting. they're so bad that characters like diddy kong and fox look like fucking saints in comparison.

coincidentally, there's a Steve vs. G&W set on right now lmao, luckily i'm watching Justin Wong cheese the shit out of CVS2

>>712764931
>>712765096
It reminds of a comment a boxing commentator made about how races gain and lose prominence throughout history. He acknowledged that boxing was becoming less black dominated the same way whites, jews, Irish, and Italians lost their dominance. It got him fired but he was 100% correct now that Slavs and Mexicans have been dominating the sport

>>712765319
I'm assuming you agreed with me on the "If the smash game was worse people would still play it" statement, and yeah glad your honest.
>Also Capcom is afraid to dip their toes in any new FGs after MVC Infinite and SFxT.
Pretty much which to me is just fucking sad, but there a corporate conglomerate of course there gonna go for whatever will make them money first.

>>712765502
>coincidentally, there's a Steve vs. G&W set on right now lmao
Yeah and it's fun

>>712765589
This with MMA being dominated with turks and slavs too

I wish I could be good enough at fighting games that I could feel like I’m a part of the community. Like top 16 at these big tournaments. Not big enough to win the whole thing but just big enough that people know my name.

>>712765662
oh, so you're just a subhuman. you should have saved everyone the trouble and just opened with
>yeah i love absolute fucking trash

What if when you picked ganondorf your opponent had to play with one hand tied behind their back

>>712759219
You need to be autistic to actually grind fighting games and if you want to get good you basically need to treat it like a job.
Juice is not worth the squeeze, especially after all that hard work you show up to a local you get just demolished by a guy you can smell from two blocks away. Its just not fun for the majority of playtime.
Although I'm of the opinion that fighters basically died with the arcade scene in the 90s

>>712765751
you would still lose

>>712765703
play the game
it took me ten years but the best player in my scene for my game said i have neutral
I've won

Aw shit Justin is going to prove that America is not (that) free?

>>712765809
Justin is is C*nadian bro...
He's a leaf...

>>712764649
>nu-Smash
You faggots are all the same. Keep coping, amigo.

>>712765809
Nevermind lol

>>712765721
bro it's going fast

>>712759754
>What do you mean sad idiot more people come and like the new games so they play the new games and don't touch the old ones it's common sense and the way it is for most things.
Damn nigga don't show your foreign hands so much.

FUCK STEVE

strive bros we still playing?

>>712765872
hes an east coaster till he dies

>>712765940
I'll go into a free room
EC #57 for anyone who wants to play Strive.

LETS GO JUSTIN

So what exactly caused Pakistan to dominate Tekken? Is it just their arcade culture and Arslan proving to everyone it could be done? If I was a billionaire and decided to build an arcade in the middle of Vietnam and it was cheap enough to cultivate a community around it, could Vietnam just rise out of fucking nowhere as a Tekken powerhouse?

>>712766047
Stop it.

>>712766047
lmao

Wow Justin almost beat Bas with ratio 4 Sagat.

>>712766107
rare footage of bas actually scared

>>712766047

is SF6 all that's left now?

>>712765940
Yes we do!!
We love Strive transfolx,its an amazing game with super duper inclusive community!
Brisket Bucket is my main ofcourse :3.
Nazi chud boomers seething about this amazing game need to fuck off they are tourists who dont play.

>>712766271
Everything else finished, yeah

what ever happened to skisonic

>>712766273
what the fuck is wrong with /v/ threads this is like the fifth time i asked to play games someone bites and then all i get are troll posts with everyone dodging.

>>712766079
Arcade culture as in
>We literally have several power outrages during the day because we are using only one generator to power an entire room up and this is the only thing we do because we live in the thirld world
Then yeah, Pakistan had that. I guess the grinding was real compared to the average player at the time, who just spent their time bugging Harada to add their favorite waifu to the game.

How do I find a Strive girlfriend (male)?

>>712766414
What are you doing trying to play games with the board that does not play games?

>tfw stuck on wifi and cant play fighting games

>>712765940
They need to release a balance patch already
I'm sick as shit of playing against S4 potemkin and I made the mistake of picking up one of the buggiest character they've ever released

between Rivals, Tokon, and the supposed MvC5 leak, is Marvel Games gonna do their own world tour now?
>>712766271
yes

>>712766378
coolio, at least we'll all be watching the same thing now

>>712766541
kek at pic

>>712764658
just post a lobby in ggg no one here plays

>>712766493
wifi is acceptable enough in SF6, so there's that game if you're into it.
I won't accept your matches, but I feel like the SF6 "community" isn't that against wifiggers like you.

>>712766414
No one likes playing any games with /v/ because it’s full of socially awkward people. One day you’re playing a game together, next they’re sending you pictures of their legs in thigh highs asking if you think they look pretty.

>>712766414
Go back to redit you will find fellow Striver trooncels there.

>>712766541
the only people who bitch about SF6 have got to be the saddest losers on the planet

>>712766391
he went to college or some shit right when SFV came out and never came back

>>712766639
i just wanna play melee but slippi does not play nicely with wifi

>>712766414
if you had any sense you'd throw Strive in the gutter where it belongs

>>712766493
If you have android phone you can spoof connection indicator so people will see youre wired. Go look up tutorial and have fun.

>>712766776
>>712766493
Just wire it up frens, nothing plays nicely with wifi

>>712766414
I'd play but I have literally zero experience playing Strive

>>712766903
im in a situation where setting up a wired connection isnt really possible
but also im moving soonish and my next place should have better options

>>712766923
Dont lose your honor,self respect and dignity anon. Do not touch that thing.

>>712767024
Good luck anon

>>712766849
>some nigger is lagging like ass against me
>thinking I'm not gonna winquit
Yeah, enjoy your "indicator"

>>712766414
I mean I play +R

>>712767137
>loses LP and gets cooldown
Heh. Keep coping nigga.

>>712767092
>NO DON'T PLAY VIDEO GAMES
I'm gonna enjoy my vidya and there's nothing you can do about it

Yipes and the waz is an s tier panel.

>>712766414
You could ask for +R I mean it's on fightcade. Any monkey can work that thing.

I still don't understand why Vicious is here.

>>712767932
Pretty sure that's #Reload

>>712767978
It has accent core but no +R, ha funny.

>>712767963
I always thought he was the Chinese box tick before wingers got involved and Chen was phased out cause altziemers.

Turns out his surname is Lopez.

Mai is winning CEO, guys.

>>712769170
Can't wait for the new battlepass to only have new Mai costumes.

are there any elenas left in the bracket

>>712769276
lol...

>>712769276
There were 0 Elenas in the Top 48.

>>712769276
Elewho?

>>712769452
>>712769329
>>712769468
oh no no no is she shit???
i havent played since before terry and mai

>>712769578
Yeah she’s hot trash

>>712769578
She's mid tier.
No point in playing le poke character in a game where you can drive rush with Ryu and instant kill your opponent.

>>712769578
I think its just cuz she is still to new but most people are saying she is mid

>>712769578
she revolves around conditioning your opponent and whiffs on crouching in a game where you run 50/50s from your crouching medium kick

>>712769578
""Pros"" are already calling her low-tier but she seems to be at least mid.
Anyways, she came out literally last week so there's no point in this argument: unless she was ultra-busted like Bison was on release, she was never going to be relevant here.

northernlion plays sf6?

Punk... what the fuck was that?

DA ALPHA

>>712770128
he's been getting sonned by anyone with patience recently

>>712769804
>tfw no northernlion voice mod pack for the in-game commentary

>>712770346
>Show off his belt
>Proceed to lose 3-0
That's da alpha for you

>>712766923
How are you gonna learn if you don't play bro, go on

>player named BLK Craime
is the a silent

>>712767932
+R’s best platform is on steam

>>712766414
The board is full of faggots who don't play games, what a shocker

>>712770527
None of the characters in Strive interest me and I hate fighting a third of them, so I don't have a lot of motivation to learn it

>>712771026
Well then why are you even bothering with a reply dumbass

>>712767932
>+R poser doesn't even know where you're supposed to launch the game
Jesus

>>712771105
To help keep this dead thread alive

As someone who doesn't play fighting games, this is really boring to watch.

goro

>>712771280
Even CEO has gone down the safe corporate path a little.
Can't even choose your own songs anymore. All the intros are boring. Just look at K-brad's intro man, God now that was pure kino.

what's it with all the young chileans in sf6?

So the ultimate answer to a brazilian ken is to put a chilean Ryu against him?

did i miss finals

>Ryu puts you in the corner then just deletes your drive gauge with insanely safe shotguns
How the fuck is he balanced?

>>712772050
Yes you missed Alpha 3 finals, all you can watch now is Street Fighter Top 8

>>712772059
bro thats just sf6

>>712771430
Amazing

>>712772136
who won strive

>>712772059
>instead of a cute waifu, it's Ryu with a shotgun.
Not sure how to feel about this.

>>712771183
I actually don't play GG much at all, I play more obscure games, but I thought +R was on fightcade.
Honestly idk why your blaming me, this series fucking naming scheme is fucking insane.

Is this game just knock down into drive rush?

>>712772410
is x just y into z
yes
the answer is yes

>>712772410
Yes. Basically DR negates the distance that some supers and moves leave you once you perform them. Also gives you + frames by default so you don't need to time your meaties.

>>712772602
You are picking random words from the glossary

>>712766391
>>712766739
good, he was fucking shit and annoying to listen to

What happened to fucking Kbrad. I miss him so much

>>712773162
he went home and became a family man

>low forward jinrai
3rd strike never left

>>712773212
When I saw Yipes using fucking glasses I knew they are getting fucking old/
I still miss the early days of FGC, that shit was so funny

>>712773162
he's still around. there's gonna be a $5k money match at evo him against idom in marvel 3
https://x.com/KBradJStorm/status/1926883664698191947

how are these yung zoomers so good
t. zoomer boomer

>>712773498
Nice, I thought EVO was so sterilized that they stopped allowing money matches.

>>712773791
Salty Suite is still EVO Uncut. It's the main event that is sterilized.

>>712773415
>tfw will always be an 09er
i miss those fucking days

>>712773789
They have drive. You could potentially do it too if you had it. See people like Liberal Terminator, NoahTheProdigy, Mena, Kaketu, etc.

jesus christ he just died

>>712773789
Adderall

>>712773789
I kind of want to see a zoomer only tournament or like the tournament divided into age brackets

>>712774285
Does that really help? I'm on adderall and don't feel much better at it.

i'm still not playing fighting games

>>712774405
If you have ADHD, Adderall slows you down so you can focus
But if you don't have it, it speeds you up

>>712773789
They have the gene

ain't no way i'm older than punk wtf
nig is 26?

>>712762428
HCHAD won

>>712774602
Bro my age is closer to the commentary then the players.

black on asian crime occurring right now

>>712773280
Just let it rip

I'm just here to say I only watched Def Jam and I'm sad KP didn't commentate again

>>712774602
>>712774774
there was some 20 something year old urien in top 6 of evo 3rd strike last year
he even beat really good japanese players

Yipes looks so old.

>>712775828
That is what I'm saying even his commentary is so damn tired and bored, I feel he is just tagging along with his little cousin because he likes fighting games.

Jesus, they really Mai so fucking SEXO in this game. I'm impressed that this is a official outfit they released.
If that R-Mika outfit was a bit too much this would definitively would be up there as well

>>712776020
he's not allowed to chimp out because muh sponsors

nerfed btw

>>712776121
>wearing pants is too much
good morning, saar

>>712776221
>wearing pants
>with a tight coursett
>WITH a push up bra that is jiggling all over the place with DoA level of physics

time for punk to get knocked out and start bitching on twitter

>>712776020
i feel like yipes doesnt love sf but he knows its the big money
he really gets into games like marvel though

>>712776972
Strive too
He was the highest ranking Millia for a long, long time

why did they take cammy's side switch uppercut away

>>712777461
She doesn't need it

>>712776972
Duty fighter for most.

>>712776972
WHEN IT'S MAHVEL BABY

Ngl replaying Strive I have a couple of thoughts
>I like this better than SFVI
>I forgot how good the music is. Fuck the cringe kino goes so hard.

Punk is the god jobber holy shit
He always gets into top 8 and throws like a bitch

pink da ALPHA bros...
we're washed....................

>>712776972
He knows way too much about it to not like it on some level. You can tell which games he doesn't like but is forced to commentate when he starts talking about random shit instead of the game itself.

america is sickeningly free.........

That Ryu pick for Punk was so weird it was just a waste of a game lol.

>>712778415
Ryu issa top tier though

imagine the smell

>>712778470
Not in Punk's hands that is for sure

>>712778226
DREAMS DON'T DIE

Like clockwork

>>712778540
Was he excited for Tokon or was he one of those crusty "IF IT AIN'T MVC4 EXACTLY I DON'T WANT IT" marvelheads?

>>712778540
Infinite already came out

LESHAR-GAWDS
our status?

>>712778585
could be worse
wait for his first stream and he'll crash out on the first akuma he comes by

>>712778585
That's remarkably subdued for Punk.

if I really like rock paper scissors and wanted to play a fighting game, which game do i play?

>>712778826
sf6

>>712778826
Either Tekken 8 or SF6.
It's like an RPS session every microsecond.

Mai is so hot bros.

Who do I play in SFVI if I play Gio in Strive?

>>712778983
Zangief, I don't know who gio is or how strive plays but go gief

>>712778983
Ken

>>712778983
prolly cammy

>>712778826
Mortal Kombat
That is is the pure essence of Rock Paper Scissors every single move is a 50/50 so you will be guessing the whole game

if NL wins, all leverless players get sent to the shadow realm by stick players

The thread is almost dead and only real fighting game players are here. Be honest, is anyone here going to download and play 2XKO?

>>712778826
Literally any of them

>>712779176
lol no

>>712779176
i'll end up playing it probably a bit but it really doesnt look that interesting to me
also 2v2 being the main mode is a nice idea but i cant just coordinate like that with a consistent partner, and theres no way in hell i would play with randoms

>>712779162
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>712779176
No I don't think so, mostly because I don't like any of the designs + one button specials.

>>712779176
No I am not really interested.

Ed bros.................................

>character switch into lose
a tale as old as time

>>712779176
>Riot fighter with anime style combat and moves
fuck no, I hate how they went with that style, it every single move feels weightless

>>712779275
sorry zoomie i don't make the rules

>>712779176
I dropped league something like a decade ago and even then they never revealed any character I would consider playing. No interest. Plus it's a tag fighter so extra no interest, personally.

More like
LEWASHED

TERRENCE CAN DO THIS

leshar is circling the drain of character switches

>>712779176
No. I was interested when they first announced it because I liked League and never played a fighting game back then, but both of those things have changed and my interest is completely gone.

>>712779176
for a week but i already don't like the game
t. played alpha 1

HEY CMON CMON

>>712779176
At this point, Tokon will get released first so that'll just be my new tag fighter

TERRENCE CAN'T DO THIS

>>712778826

>>712779048
Cammy's damage is too low.
>>712779036
Ken's moves are too unsafe.

>>712779176
I don't like tag games so I'll download to try it but probably drop it within a week or month at most

>>712779540
juri but she might be too complex for a gio player

Terry's super is so silly

>Now you realize that SF is now a korean game
And then the pakis will come and dominate everything

>>712779176
Yeah I'll give it a fair shot. I wasn't a huge fan of how the movement felt, but Ekko was cool so I'll at least play. I'm more interested in Tokon, Invincible, and Nen Impact tag wise though.

>>712779938
koreans are just better gamers tbqh

FINAL GAME

LET'S GO TERRY!

WE ARE SO BACK

holy fuck hes turning it around

TEEEERRRRYYYY

He was not okay

crige

ARE YOU OK!?

ARE YOU OKAY?

>ending with busta woof
kino, i must admit

this grandma just won a major for a fighting game and /v/ is crying about reaction checks lol

LESHAR GAWDS
when's the last time someone sweeped combo breaker and CEO?

>>712779176
It looks kinda ass visually and in gameplay, also the roster so far is disappointing. I'm not very excited for it. But I have some friends who love League so if they're interested I might play it with them.

Post if your OHKAY!

>>712779965
I promise I'm not shitposting and I don't want to just baselessly dunk on a game, but what do you see in Invincible? It looks extremely bad. Are you just a huge Invincible fan? I read the comics and I have 0 interest in it. I have more interest in 2XKO despite not touching a game of league in my life.

>>712780108
You have to be 18 or older to post here, anon...

How is it that Terry and Mai were done more justice in SF6 than their home game of City of the Wolves?

The Terry pick ended up working out and Leshar won another major nice.

my tacos have risen

Good finals
Tekken was still the best one

>minger dressed as mai
my penis is confused

>>712780323
because NOOT NOOT

>>712780424
For me it was cammy with massive ass cheeks on cam a while ago

>>712780323
Capcom, regarless of all shit thrown at them, make some soulful games, Terry winning animation is specially great

>no Sagat
aw shucks

>>712780323
Because no matter how much /v/ seethes at Capcom they actually put effort into most of their games

No trailer..

Good night lads, it has been a fun CEO
what other events we have going forward?
Is EVO next?

>>712780992
Yeah I guess it's EVO, then the mega corporate arab shilling event, EWC, meaning no good tournaments until Fausty Frostings next year.

>>712780992
EWC I think is the next big event for 3 fighting games atleast

>>712780310
I just like fighting games man. Invincible's cool and all, but it could've been harry potter for all I care. It gave me some Killer Instict vibes and I heard some of those dudes are working on it so it can't be all that bad. Hopefully it comes out looking better though because it does look pretty rough around the edges. That doesn't really bother me as long as it feels good.

>>712781093
>EWC
Why is that still a thing? The first year was so fucking bad lmao
I keep laughing whenever I think about the audio issues and the mic bugging every couple of minutes

>>712781209
>Why is that still a thing?
Because oil will eventually dry up

>>712779176
Nen Impact for me
