Canada at Seasons Beatings 5: Redemption

i like gamerbee over the japanese players because he shows emotions

emotion is for the weak.

hehe really though good shit JS, played through that ugly matchup yet had the disneyworld smile on. he put on a good show.

rundown of what canada did this weekend:

js: nothign really to be said here, stream said enoguh

henri: beat buktooth first match of top 32, lost to dieminion.

danny: lost to marlinepie first round, i know 100% danny is better though, it was just a shitload of pressure

teams wise, team STC lost to PR Rogs team, but THEY BEAT TEAM JAPAN

team canada …red? me, rey and dabmai eliminated team empire (lincoln, kreymore, and andre). and by “team canada”, i mean “rey eliminated team empire”. we lost to team scrimps

nothing else really comes to mind other than js getting hustled by chris hu in “third strike combo matches”, aka “first try combo challenges” in sf4

damn sucks that i had to work all weekend, i didnt get to catch much of the stream at all just a bit of top 8 and some friday night 3v3 action. i did see some canadians on the stream though, glad that we’re down there representing. also i saw your (dadesicanadian) interview on the front page of srk. good stuff.

Thanks for the knowledge tip, Anant.
I hope you had an amazing time @SB lol.

Congrats to the Canadian contingent! Exciting to watch Canadian players do so well.

to anyone who still cares

js master got 9th (lost to kreymore, sabin)
chirithy got 17th (lost to sanford, dieminion)
buddahforce got 25th (lost to wolfkrone, marlinpie)

I feel like this year’s Season’s Beatings really put Canada on the map. Our top players are a force to be reckoned with.

i won my scummy first try combo match lol

Duck OCV’d a team in SSF4 Teams… That was good shit!

I’d rather keep my SB performance on the DL…

I blame it on the 4’s.

We caught Canada Red and White getting lit up on the stream at TFNS.

Also Jamin hogging stream time.

I was totally trolling the stream area! Was prob one of the best spots to watch the matches and TRY to listen to the commentary… That place so damn loud! Hopefully you caught me cheering on JS when he wrecked PR Balrog!

Good times all weekend hanging out with the Canadien players.

Thanks to dabmai for driving out there.

Team Canada Red, fun times as we were just all having fun trying to ruin dreams, I’m glad that it got postponed until sunday as I was done for the night after not sleeping for almost 40 hours.

Random things I can remember from the weekend:

Trying to find a library with dabmai to print out our paypal receipts only to find that googlemaps was out of date and the library didn’t exist anymore. We got lucky driving for 10 minutes and finding a public one.

wolfkrone taking Chris Hu’s money for free for his 3rd strike “first try” combo challenge, Hu challenged him to do a viper combo on stick in 1 try, “jumping roundhouse, standing fierce punch, ducking fierce punch EX siesmo BOOM! flame kick ultra” Hits it then gets challenged for a runback and hits it again.

Playing ST and getting the itch to start playing that game again but realized nobody here plays it anymore.

I donated $20 to Daigo, I got him to laugh at my gdlk jab jab neutral jump nothing combo.

People being creepy and videotaping Daigo sleeping.

50 nuggets for $9.99

Canes was overrated, but still good.

Being math scrubs at the IHOP.

lol
Chris Hu didn’t know that Wolfkrone can use stick and pad it’s just he prefers to play on pad.

Shoutouts to all the canada players out there at SB. I didn’t know there were so many good players up there lol. I was the vietnamese Rufus player. Sorry I didn’t get to play with you guys, but I definitely want to play you guys online if possible. Just hit me up for some matches anytime.
