Not all of LA was playing obviously, but still, everyone on that team lives in the greater LA area.
Was I surprised that Peter went with Abel? Yeah. Do I think there are 2-3 other players in the LA area and 6-7 other players on the WC who could have held legit spots on the team as well? Yeah. But I don’t think there’s any point in making excuses about the results. Valle, Ed, Ken, Mike, and Peter is a very strong team, and I don’t think any combination of the 10 or so total guys who could have been on it would have done so much better that they would have won. It’s not like LA lost by a game or two; we got our asses handed to us.
You wanna say some other combination or character choices would have gotten EIGHT more wins, even? Fine. You’re still talking about losing to NY.
it WAS actually advertised as a socal vs empire arcadia grudge match though- so technically “other players on the WC” couldn’t have held spots on the team if that’s really what the event was supposed to be, right?.. seems like it’s mostly just the talking that morphed it into a WC vs EC thing.
Hey, guys? Did you guys hear about how they moved the city limits of Los Angeles from the border with Mexico all the way up to Canada? True story, bro.
SF veteran status: apparently not a big help for functional literacy. Guess that was something I Really Didn’t Know. Maybe WC needs to take a break from your fine tutelage of picking Sagat and level up their chestpuffing game first, because between you and Valle i just flashed on Kaillera shittalk from 8 years ago.
Spare us the faggot tribalism that’s kept the SF community in a hole the past decade and just try putting those 25 cent games to good use for a change. Or at least exert what little influence you have left to keep Alex “Creepy old guy” Valle from thinly-veiled attempts to lure boys to tourneys to get their “cherry popped” or whatever the hell that was.
Grats to team Empire: Outside of the shit talk, you guys are cool as fuck. Thanks for opening eyes :wow:
Team SoCal: Time to step it up.
Hydro: How’s that bill treating you? :woot:
Watts: Thanks for preaching the truth. Shit, someone needed to say it. Oh, btw, say hi to huneebee for me.
Hydro brought up a good point, this wasn’t WC vs EC, but SoCal vs EC. I propose to take that a step further and say, this wasn’t WC vs EC, but SoCal vs Empire Arcadia. Faction vs Faction, not Coast vs Coast.
And I personally think all the EC trash talk is good; we need that shit to fuel the flames.
what kept SF community in a hole for 10 years was the lack of SF after 3rd strike. the fighting game scene was already on the decline in the 90s anyways. where were u from 2000 to now? yjdk lolol.
anyways. barfights was cool. good job to everyone.
rofl? since when is “chestpuffing” a literal term professor dumbfuck? why dont you go and ask people who actually know how to play the game if i can play and back up what i say? how does it feel to be a stupid useless mother fucker sitting at home trolling something you have zero clue about? do you even play this game? do you play any game? you sorry worthless piece of shit. why do you first look in the mirror and ask yourself why youre such a fucking loser idiot talking about kaillera? wtf does that have to do with anything? incase YOU cant fucking read, i didnt give WC any excuses for losing and wont make any. you on the other hand thinking youre some fucking indian chief talking about tribalism and other nonsense. care to show yourself at any location with sf4 and play for any amount? ill play you for pink slips, my benzo vs your hyundai, or even bus pass, or whatever the fuck form or transportation you use. punk bitches like you need to stfu and just cause you cant BE ABOUT IT doesnt mean you should continue and attempt to talk about it. lol, just another faggot trying to be bad ass and trying to talk shit when in actuality you are… joe dirt. pz out little girl.
I was just mockin a Comment. To settle curiousity that was for LI Joe:wow:
Do you even play pacman ?
I want to thank Barfights for actually having that. On another note i wanted to doubledown on a runback. I told some peeps (UltraDavid/Sanchez)it was some free money out there and to follow me if they wanted to see:wow:That was just stop one:wow:Now that im done feeling myself:chat: I got a speeding tix going 101mph on my way there so IRL I lost this weekend:crybaby:
p.s Shoutouts to everyone I played and seen this weekend Socal/EC. Heres a funny story I assume SANCHEZ/BEEBOP was assholes from other tourney apperances but…they are cool as fuck.
Man if you think a 31 year old is creepy fuck you point blank. I am 39 and still play this shit I love the game and Watts is trying to hype folks up to get their shit together and level up. Old man my ass you must be 12 bitch.
No doubt…I totally respect all the old dudes still playing this. We wouldn’t at the skill level we are at now without you guys showing us what this game has to offer so many years later. Keeping us away from Smash and Halo n shit.
Good shit to Ryan and everyone who helped run this event! I had a great time watching from home!
Good shit to ALL players, not just the NY team. I’m proud of you guys for winning it though. I knew when I drove you guys to the airport that you’d win it.
Good games from WC though. Those Ed vs Art matches were too intense haha. Good shit to Alex on his matches. Mike fucking Boss repping the Honda. I though you said you gave him up? Sanford, your Cammy is TOO fierce son!!! My man iloveu Joe repping Long Island proud with that Sagat!
As for this WC vs EC rivalry, I’m all for the competition. I want to get some of you guys out here for ECT2 like last time. However, I think we really need to come together as a country and focus on Japan for once. The reason why they always win over is because they fight on a united front, whereas we’re always focused on what coast is better. This is the UNITED States guys, let’s fight as one!!!
lol 30+years old and plays video games aint creepy.
we CAME UP ON VIDEO GAMES… we were the first…
hard to put something down that you’ve been doing since you were like 6.
props to the east coast as well… that stings all of us greater los angeles peeps, but we are still the land of streetfighter and i’m sure we will get our shit together… thanks for waking us up.
