Capcom: 25th Anniv 3rd Strike competitors?

Was there any kind of seeding in the US qualifiers? Spreading players by region?

For the NY qualifiers there was seeding…most of the top NY players were seeded plus some few out of town players, idk about the Texas qualifier though but it seems it wasn’t looking at the top 16, most of the time if tournaments are seeded well you have a whole army of strong players in top 16

“That looks like a 3rd Strike player from America…” -Combofiend about this crowd guy they need to show again.

Brazil tournament Streaming today

I’d be cool with Combofiend commentating 3s tournaments over some of the people they get to do it

Who’s that hiding behind Tokido’s head just after 1:40:10?

It was funny seeing Tokido being pretty free to Dive Kicks in the first set. He adjusted quickly though. Saw an Alex player, also on controller… he made quite a few mistakes but seeing him using EX Stomp to win a round made me laugh.

Wireless controller!

Wakeup stomp eating both hits of Urien HK was more lol. It happened 2 times. But WakeupSuper BOOMERANG happened 2 times.

(Tokido did SA2 fierce fierce yes yadda yadda, walk up LLegs. :tup:

5 Star BR, chun played on the xbox
Pherai BR?!

I recognize that dude in the front. He was RX’s translator!

y he hates the game

I’ll be fair, slightly biased to smarter player, but fair. I vote me for commentator. And if it’s 3rd strike, nothing can quiet me down.

How was Brazil @Pherai?

I wish I remembered it! That picture is really tripping me out!!

I’m assuming the results of this qualifier means that Tokido is banned from ever entering Brazil again?

Maybe! Or maybe he should enter as tokido_br huehuehue

In all honesty, it’s pretty rare to have an opportunity of a tournament like this in Brazil.
3rd strike isnt that popular, but our few players are dedicated to it because we like the game so much
Then out of nowhere, comes this qualifier… The only prize for 3S was for the first place, and it was pretty dope: a trip to play in the US
We wanted this opportunity bad, so it’s kind of sad that Tokido took it… a sponsored player everyone knows. So weird having him rep Brazil.

I mean, will the next opportunity will be at capcom 50th? I really hope not.
We have some plans for the future and really want to play against international competition!

Ireland is sending the legendary chunkis to the Paris qualifier, BTW.

Oooh that’s cool, really wish the one in England would get sorted out

I still miss the chunkis vs srwilson3s flames on the old srk. Was it 10 years ago? lol

According to Fubarduck: Mester will attend 3S @ LA qualifier.

So LA will become 2nd Brazil, slot taken??

Maybe Pyrolee will take him out

Arjarath put up a good fight but I really wanted kAA to beat Tokido in the finals. That gouki was nice.

Feels a little off that in this big worldwide tournament people from other countries can come in and take the one spot to end up at the big final. Almost think there should be some stipulation about living in the country the qualifier is held in to compete. The idea of having talent from many parts of the planet is wicked. Oh well. Get dat money Japan. Capcom’s fault anyway.
