imo best wc team off track records
chunk/chris s/dp/potter, bill, duc(sanford lose factor)/soo or fanatiq(msp factor that always place)
best ec this year imo
justin/sanford/yipes/ nelson/erik/brandon(either 2 of the 3)
row and jmar are good but that was 2 yrs ago that they showed any sort of liking to the game, and they may still be nice so just put them in a gauntlet with the wc 5 or just have them place in a big wc tourney.
have fun n goodluck wiht the whole thing
Fuck all this bullshit. This is a new year and everone is aware on who were the best from the WC based on last year’s EVO results. Take those standings, carry them over to this years all the way through like 2 months before Evo Finals. Plenty of time to choose the best WC Team.
Who’s making this shit happen, you, Reset? Anyway, whenever you guys hold it down, let us know. I want to check it out. BigRoss and I will be happy to film.
suggested team Regency/949/whatever
Y2Jay/Wes/Dorian/Rob/KaiSing feedback from these peoples?
I haven’t been to the 949 in forever. And everyone else who was there with me is now
so run that by them
Why is reset running this tournament?
Why is it teams?
Why is it at regency?
It’s okay. This doesn’t need to make sense.
Can we get someone that knows what they’re doing to run this tournament?
best post yet.
Hey waddup Soo
5 years later and most of you havent aged mentally more than 2 months past 8. cmon people, wtf is the problem here. why do you guys need people to hold you hands and make things happen by randomness… one main reason you cant pick a for sure whos better than who is : certain styles counter certain players. P1 can mop P2 while P2 can mop P3 while P3 can mop P1 and so on and so forth. its a never ending discussion and until someone makes a break through its the same old story. lotta good players, lotta stupid egos, blah blah blah. you will never get the top 5 from wc to agree on whos top 5. plain and simple. let it go, EC mvc2 is too buff. just like japan 3s is too buff. pz
I think the top five players from the West Coast vs the top five players from the East Coast is a pretty interesting/fun match-up that would be fun to watch.
I think the “random group of five friends” from the West Coast vs the top five players from the East Coast is retarded. I don’t want to watch JWong, Yipes, Sanford, SmoothViper, and Johnny Donuts vs WC5.
I think the problem is that the West Coast just isn’t cohesive anymore. You’re seeing utter bullshit in this thread based upon who’s friends with whom. Marvel’s not a team game. That’s the team tourney you’re thinking of. shrug
We need to have an unbiased head of the WC team. I’ve loved Potter’s points so far, I nominate that guy. Take the top 2-3 from Evo West, plus two slots to fill through some round robin, something like that.
Yeah this group of 5 team thing is bullshit.
If it’s a 5v5, team cohesiveness and friendship, aka chemistry blah blah blah aint’ even a factor. If you suck, and you’re on a team with good players who happen to be your friends, that doesn’t mean you’ll do well.
This shit ain’t pokemon style or cooperation cup, it’s a 5 on fucking 5 like how it was in 2003, your individual skill matters.
To this day I don’t know how Genghis got picked for the first 5v5…Soo, Row and Kuan was easy… people rag on MAG for getting lucky to be put on the team but in the end he did better than two players on that WC team, had he beaten ricky he would have had 4-1.

edit: They should have just let Chris S be Captain and pick the team last year. Not everyone was happy with the team he chose, but the team made sense from what I remember (Chris S/DP/Chunk/Potter/Bill). 1st and 2nd place finishers at Evo West, WC’s best/mvp of 2006-2007, and two guys who did extremely well at the big cal poly tournaments, including the one where justin wong came down.
lol either show up come the 8th or not, opinions at this point dont matter
especially from people not planning on playing
qft <3
this guy… BOSS.
Oh, 8th. Nice, I’ll make sure to clear my schedule to watch this.
I think this needn’t be such a huge issue. Everyone is fighting over what exactly, the chance to get bodied? This is unofficial anyway, so does it really matter who is team WC? It seems sort of pointless to have a million separate tournies for 5 spots that no one is going to agree on in the end anyway. Furthermore, it seems like most of proposed teams WC are based on chemistry/comradery with little overlap, while the EC team we’re for the most part just going to send who we think are our 5 best. This is similar to the difference in sbo qualifiers for 3s even, in the way that the ec/wc teams were chosen differently in the past couple years. So why not go a similar route?
All your teams just play team EC, and pay $100 a person. These don’t all have to be in a row, I dont think there would be more than 5 WC teams, so I think 5 5v5s is doable with the current evo schedule, especially considering most players should have already qualified for their respective pool games come evo. How long does a 5on5 take anyway? Shouldn’t be more than 2 hrs right, thats 10 hrs of mvc2 over 3 days? Shit that’s easy, I PLAY 10 HOURS A DAY!!
Jokes aside, I think this should be doable, especially if we cut down on the first to 10 and first 7 money matches. Imo this would be more interesting and entertaining than those, and eliminates a lot of the problems. And I know this runs contrary to preppy saying I dont want to see a random 5 vs the team from EC, but I don’t think any team willing to put up money will really get bodied any worse than any other team from WC. This gives incentive to players actually forming a team that they believe can win. There’s tons of players on WC that are comparable in skill level anyway, and its pretty hard to justify one team being better than the others anyway
The amount could be lowered to 50, but I think 100 is better. I mean most of the WC players will only have to put up the money once, which is good for them since they’re underdogs anyway,while the EC team, who are pretty objectively the favorites, probably won’t have much problem putting the money up more than once.
Basically, if your team wants to play, play for real. We know that most likely this isn’t going to get up on the big screen, and who really cares when Preppy is going to record it anyway. We can agree right now to just say f the bigscreen, f waiting for people to tell us we might get up there and wasting time, and all that stuff. If you really think your team can win, put your money up. I think if you aren’t willing to put that up then you are going to be a waste of time on the team anyway. You have 6 months to save 100 bucks, you could save all this money that you’re spending on tournies to try and get on your team anyway and put it towards that.
Personally I think the only rule should be, if you’re going to be on one of the teams WC you can be on one only, maybe two at the most, otherwise it’d definitely get a bit out of hand. And maybe if you are going to be on a 2nd team, perhaps that whole team should have played once already, I think it’d run contrary to this idea if you just float a couple people back and forth on every 5 man team plus give an unfair advantage beyond the fact that every team beyond the first will have the benefit of watching Team EC play prior.
So yea, thats my suggestion, basically let the EC Globetrotters just play their 5 (give them maybe 2 alternates at most), decide on maybe 5 teams from WC, and put your money up. Just throwing it out there.
Imma Tell You All What Needs To Happen. If You Wanna Test Your Marvel Game Come To All Amusement In Burbank On Tuesdays, After 5 Pm, And Join Me, Soo, Finesse, And Raul For Some Marvel. It Doesn’t Matter Who You Are, You Could Be God And We’ll Still Play You, Not To Prove Anything Just To Play Cause Marvel Is Fun.
I THINK WE SHOULD HOLD A SINGLES TOURNAMENT IN SO CAL, NORCAL, ANDSEATTLE, AND TOP FIVE FROM EACH REGION SHOULD HAVE A SINGLES TOURNAMENT FOR THE 5 ON 5 SPOT, TOP FIVE GETS THE SPOT. THATS ONE WAY TO DO THIS.
THE OTHER WAY, HAVE 5 MAN TEAMS AND HAVE A TOURNEY, SIMPLE AS THAT
LET MOTHA FUCKAS PLAY FOR SPOTS, FUCK ALL THAT I DESERVE THIS I DESERVE THAT, WE DON’T WANT SOME WEAK ASS FOOL REPPIN WC ON THE 5 ON 5 THEN GETS MOPPED UP ONLY BECAUSE HE GOT VOTED TO BE ON THE SPOT. LETS PLAY FOR IT.
^^^^ good shit
i’ll come down next tuesday man, i haven’t played you in a while
i love all this dumb hype about a 5v5 that hasnt even been officially announced yet. And Ski spits the truth
fuck it, nam vs EC by himself…
i got 1 dollar on nam, cuz the odds will be 1,000 to 1
and spiral/sent/juggernaut might just pull off the win
bring that gatorade!
lol @ reset thinking he has the authority to make it an official tournament
LOL
divine right hasn’t been around for centuries, son.
