EVO is coming up soon and there are only a few more tourneys in Pac North to take into account before the decision must be made.
I’ve just scoured through last three months worth of Pac North tourney results and it is easy to see that two names pop up over and over in top 3. As these individuals confirmed they will be at Evolution, they have secured themselves on the Norcal SF4 team. These 2 individuals are:
Ricky Ortiz
Crackfiend
Note that I’m looking for consistency. There are some other names that are under consideration but have not displayed the consistency of these two. But I’m keeping an eye out to see how the other candidates fare in the next few weeks.
Potentially the biggest tournament ever in Norcal is taking place this weekend at Fuddruckers. This will be an excellent event to showcase your skill. I encourage everyone to attend, especially norcal team hopefuls. I will be in attendance to scout for talent in both SF4 and Remix teams.
with his display at devestation – he clearly deserves a spot being able to beat justin’s rufus considering that’s the character he used to win the gamestop tourney.
congrats to both ricky and crack. Though i must say keep an eye out for king kai aka kaizer. I believe he has the best sagat in norcal and hes very solid =]
do we have a confirmation on what character ricky is going to use?(or is he going to wait for on who else fills the spot before he decides what character he’s going to use)
…or can he change character PER region that norcal faces?
Honestly all these Sagats are pretty good but which of them has been consistently placing top 3 in tournies? None really… unless Kaizer does again this Sunday. I think it’ll be a tough decision tbh.
^ He’s the team captain. He can pick whoever he wants for whatever reason he chooses. He can pick himself. He’s also a very good player (understatement).
I think it’s almost a given that he should be on the team, but if he wants to pick different three, it’s his call.
I’m sorry. Where did I, ever, give the impression it wasn’t his call, he wasn’t a good player or that I didn’t know he was the team captain? I was just saying if he is hesitant to put himself on the team, I (and probably most of the Bay) won’t be against him playing.
