who here from edm is coming down anyways?

Would love to see Project M as the Smash game at Evo since I think it would be way more hype, but I understand the reasons behind why they wouldn’t do it, so I hope to see at least Fox: The Game Melee back.

The other games will be SF4, Marvel, KI, KOF13, one of BBCP or GGAC, and Injustice.

KI will have Fulgore and probably a couple of other characters by the time Evo rolls around.

Hopefully it goes well. It’s a good game, the people behind it are really passionate about fighting games. It needs a chance.

Regarding the 5th character:

:confused:
I don’t think Capcom understands how to hype a game.

only 4 people have guessed correctly? erm, yea ok then ono.

i reckon we will find out for sure who it is in probs 2-3 months.

Capcom needs to stop letting ono do PR.

pretty sure capcom just loves weird people in charge of the SF franchise.

If you read about the original SF2 guy he was crazy as all hell too.

Who needs housing? I can step up, but I’m not entirely sure I’m attending the tourney. Dean has first dibs, but he’s not sure yet.

I could house 2 people. 3 if you don’t mind the floor.

If you can bring an Xbox we can also have 2 setups so you can practice.

anyone at this point think the last character is NOT gonna be that decapre person?

Me
Fakesteve
Drew
Michael
Ben
??? Others?

I would be sooooo thankful for housing.

Let’s see, I’m trying to think of who the lamest female character could be…

Sunburned Sakura.

was hoping for more of a Marvel contingent for Fight pub since we couldn’t work out our 5v5 at Shiro’s last tourney

will MM any Edmonton player who comes down

Ok, done. 1 (2?) spots left.

I feel sorry for the olympic athletes having to put up with that poverty stricken shit town location they’re all stuck in.
Russia, ruining every bodies fun one event at a time.

I don’t see how that is unwinnable for Bane, but I haven’t listened to the new KTP yet.

In edmonton BiPolar (Bane) beat the fuck outta MashPotato (Shazzam) in casuals. So I dunno.

I didn’t pay a whole buncha attention cause I was visitin and what not at that point.

One match I could see as horrible for Bane is Flash.

Either way, Shout outs to good times with Greg and Scott, I really enjoyed your guys company.

I’ve been workin on my cr Jab confirms.

Thanks for the good times guys.

That screen looks great, but I think it could be a fake.

Nice! I hope I get to see them play at fight pub, 'cus I have no idea what I should be doing there. It’s considered one of Bane’s bad matches because he’s one of the only characters that completely negates the main part of Bane’s game (roflstomping you during your wake-up). There are zero ways to punish away teleport, unless you have full meter, then you can super it (but super whiffs if he does towards teleport). And lightning bolt travels in a way that makes it hard to avoid with his floaty jump. So you have to bulldog, and a bad dash means you’re eating shoulder or psycho-crusher. He has a ton of ways to escape the corner… He’s just a slippery, mother-fucker. Flash is his other really bad match up ;). Can’t complain though. Bane bops a lot of top tier characters that others have a hard time dealing with.

might be fake, but it looks a lot better than the current one

they DID say they were considering remaking the screen… although the “Ryu” text in Evil Ryu’s name looks pretty photoshoppy, and the 5th character’s portrait is noticeably worse quality than all the others

For arguments sake, if the picture is real… could this be her? http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/Noembelu
Kinda sorta looks like she has braids in the portrait…
This one looks even more like it http://www.google.ca/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&docid=e5J89DXgxxz0mM&tbnid=kT1WEdcJJLI1lM:&ved=0CAUQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bladeandepsilon.com%2Fhtnoembelu.htm&ei=9avyUsXFC4aGogTW6oDwDA&bvm=bv.60983673,d.cGU&psig=AFQjCNGrSA4t_d4-t-b58EtyPJtCvVngUA&ust=1391721844703241

If true, much cooler than Decapre, IMO. Dibs.
