I wonder what interesting teams and MUs can come out of this:
Vega + Dee Jay: awesome all around team
Gief x4 + O.Gief: shoto killer
Dhalsim + N.Ryu: perhaps as much shoto-killing power with a char alone
Blanka and Cammy: probably very common as fillers

Do I need the S+ tier registration to play? Or can I just get the S tier one?

EVO Registration:

A-Tier (Event Pass) $20 (choose this if you are only planning on competitng in The ST Games.)
S-Tier (Premium Pass) $40 (if you also want to watch the EVO Finals on Sunday.)

Each ST Games tournament will be $10 to enter ($40 total).

Note: Early Bird registration ends tonight! (Make sure you register before Sunday, April. 7th at 11:59pm PST to save $20)

The ST GAMES “Qualifiers” are starting to heat up now!

This coming weekend, we will have the Nor Cal tournament at GameCenter and the tournament at Texas Showdown.

The following week, Civil War will be running all four ST GAMES formats just like what will be happening at EVO.

We will also be announcing the details for The Super Arcade ST GAMES tournament soon as well.

Streams ?

Texas Showdown MAY be streamed with commentary from Ultradavid and James Chen but I don’t have any details on it (if it’s just top 4/8 etc.)

I haven’t heard anything about Civil War being streamed. I don’t believe it will be.

I’m pretty certain the Super Arcade tournament will be streamed.

Edit: The Nor Cal tournament will be streamed by Mizuki.

O.Ken beats all characters in his tier, but (maybe) O.Sim. IMHO, he should join Ryu, DJ and the others at tier 3.

i dont know about o ken on ratio 2, shouldnt he be ratio 3 with ryu?

Funny how chun’s on her own at 3.5 =/. Difference between o. Cammy filler, cammy filler and no filler.

Texas Showdown ST GAMES Tournament Results:

  4. EST 1991 (Dee Jay) - 2 ST GAMES POINTS
  5. Jumpsuit Jesse (Fei Long / Ryu) 1 - ST GAME POINT
