Revelations - $30,000+ [SAKO/DAIGO] SSF4:AE/MvC3/MK/BBCS1,2/AH3/TK6 Jun. 10 - 12 LA, CA

I’m in only if killer kai shows up - I’m bout to make this man start trash talking again!!! Hope u guys don’t mind me getting on the microphone all night :smiley:

CEO seems to have a perception that popularity and stream views is more important than fairness in competition. Florida doesn’t have any arcades and now it’s expected of players who have been looking forward to this major to just play AE for maybe 3 days and learn months worth of match-up knowledge? The perception seems to be: “Well the same top players would be in top 16 anyway.”

I’ve been practicing as much as I possibly could since the tournament was decided in Nov/Dec… and now they decide to switch to a game that I probably won’t even be able to play before the tournament?

I’m sure its fantastic for the players who frequent arcades… but when it comes to a major: Are all of your attendees arcade goers? I’m not because there aren’t any arcades around here and I work a lot. However I do put hours, weeks, months worth of time into perfecting my game in SSF4 at home. Now I’m just supposed to feel obligated to enter a tournament for a game I don’t know anything about?

Aren’t there a lot of people out there who practice on XBOX or PS3 for months and months just to rise through the ranks? There has to be a lot of people like me out there? From my perception CEO didn’t fully consider the fairness. They just want to be “flashier, bigger, and more popular”.

I don’t play SSF4 for a live stream. It’s my stress relief, my hobby, and my way to compete. I understand that these big events have a lot of money behind them… and thats what you have to consider at the end of the night… but I just wanted to compete in something big. Now I’m not able to. I hope no one in California or anyone else on that side of the nation has to feel as disappointed as I do.

I figure I’d post this here, considering how I’m sure it would fall on deaf ears for CEO and how much effort is also being put into Revelations.

PS. I still want to buy a t-shirt.
Edit: The purpose of this post wasn’t to cause any tension, its just one players perception of how choosing a 3-4 day old game will effect a player base that I happen to be a part of. It’s my feed-back for y’all. Apologies.

Well hopefully you’ll do okay at CEO.

Good luck to all attending Revelations as well, regardless of which version you guys end up playing. :slight_smile: Both events are sure to be incredible for the attendees involved.

Now now guys, let’s play nice and troll elsewhere.

Let’s keep this tournament thread focused on REVELATIONS, and let’s let the Florida flaming/trolling/beefs/feuds etc. elsewhere.

Curaga, we understand your frustrations, talk to us the community that helps you become stronger every month next before you go behind our internet backs and talk shit elsewhere where it doesn’t concern other people. Don’t let your frustrations influence the decision made by TL, Valle, and the rest of THEIR community. We understand where you come from, but going elsewhere to express is not okay, and you’re only harming yourself. See you next week at A Comic Shop.

Now continue on with the ReveLAtions hype!
Hope you guys have a great and godlike event!

I dont see curaga’s post as an attack and i understand why he is voicing his frustration. I won’t speak for the man but in my opinion he was trying to convey his thoughts on how revelations will be handled. if he were to make a tl:dr post i’m pretty sure it would read
"Please don’t put in AE to go along with the hype train - consider the community you are inviting to this, then decide… kthxbai"
I could be wrong but that’s what i got out of this - and he has every right to say that

I agree 100%

OMNISSCYTHE won Blazblue, he’s going to this

I, as a Ken player, would love to play SSF4: AE at Revelations. But I’m not sure how you and other Ryu/Cammy/E. Honda/Guile/Rose players will feel. It is a lot of money after all. It’d be cool to see Yun/Yang/E. Ryu/Oni in action though.

+1 for SSF4: AE.

Congrats to OmniSScythe for winning the Revelations BB:CS Online Tourney!
Your trip to Cali awaits!

Revelations MvC3 Online tourney is May 22!
You could be the next winner for a full sponsorship package to Cali!

is there a schedule/ prizes for the other games like Black Ops and Madden? I found the one for all the fighting games, but I don’t see that much information on non-fighting games

@Joon;

I don’t think any of us mind the changes to our character for better or for worse, but moreso that some people only have 3 days to practice for a tournament rather than the 2 years they practice for a different game.

SSF4 is not the same as AE, not even close.

Doesn’t matter which version TL/Valle choose b/c I’ll play whatever.

Utah will try to represent as hard as we can despite what version is played.

I don’t speak for everyone in Utah when I say this but I’m all about the spectating. I’m old and I know I’ll never place top 8 at one of these majors however I come to experience the competition.

I’ve seen enough of what Super has to offer. I want to see more hype which to means seeing Arcade Edition.

Thanks TL/Valle/Level Up for putting a great competition on the West Coast for us to join.

had

utah just got ae today so ignore striders bitching lol.

Good luck to everyone. :frowning:

Question

My buddies want to enter the Black Ops turny is it free for all, 2v2, or 4v4???

Yo, my main concern is when are they going to announce which version of SSF4 they gonna use. Gotta figure out what game we playing folks! Holler at a playa when you see him in the streets.

I vote for ae

The schedule will be up within a week as well as prizes and payouts.

Its going to have FFA, 2v2, and 4v4 =)

Visit PTGPRO.com for more info on Black Ops and Madden as the site is being updated constantly!

Any updates on ae or super?

The whole “2 days to practice” thing for those without AE in local arcades… yeah it sucks. But what sucks more: having to adapt to whatever (likely minor) character changes with your main in 2 days, or not being able to play your main at all (Yun, Yang, etc) because they don’t exist in the game? I’d say the latter.

So far voting on this page has been heavily in AE’s favor. Please confirm this already so us out-of-towners can start making plans! :3

AE all the way pleeeaaase!
