Top 8 battles were pretty intense. I was sitting next to 2 machines with crazy epic battles going on both sides. Here are some highlights.
Pool 1- Combofiend plays Viscant in winners finals, punches Snyderman to death for sagat ocv’s. Funny thing is I didn’t even see this match but I will bet all my cookies that is what happened. Afrocole loses to some a-groove guy before losers finals and Viscant beats up a-groove guy for the qualifying spot.
Pool 2- This was my pool. I play choi first round and lose. Winners finals end up being Kim vs. Choi. First game Choi’s Sagat of justice comes back from 5% to beat kim’s 100 percent Sagat. Kim wins the next 2 games with a vengeance and takes the winners finals. Losers finals come down to Senor Payaso (I think from Davis) vs. Choi. Choi takes it 2-1 and qualifies. Payaso puts on an impressive k-groove display just defending like a black Ino.
Pool 3- Lots of good players in this pool. Buktooth has to put in work, beating Laugh, Pigadoken, and Hail and Kill. These were probably the highlight matches of the night since all 3 opponents forced campbell to stop mashing to win. In losers Laugh beat Pigadoken 2-1 and Hail and Kill beat Laugh 2-1 to qualify for top 8 in losers. All matches were really close and intense. One audience member literally shit his pants at the climax of game 2 with laugh and HAK.
Pool 4- After clearing the shit stain left on station 3, the tournament continued. Amir played Evil Elvis first game and was sent to losers. Ricky breezed through to winners finals where he had to play Evil Elvis. Ricky wins 2-0. Evil Elvis meets Amir in losers finals for a rematch and the last match of the night. Amir scrapes by with the win and qualifies for top 8.

Didn’t Wizard specifically say they were sticking to 2/3 double elimination for all EVO tournaments?
