Props to Dennis Kim for having a copy of SSF4 for ps3.
Great tournament. Props to KillaCam for representing Waterloo like a champ. GGs to everyone I played at the suite and in the tournament. Also shoutouts to Leo7 and Jwu for representing Waterloo in Blazblue.
I would like to say:
Props to the tournament organisers!! SARS said it in person to Anant but ill say it here. I as well as all of mtl was very impressed with the fact that the tourney ended before midnight, despite starting 2h30 mins later than scheduled! Truly was great!
Also thanks to Anant for giving me a fairly easy bracket because of our brown connection…
Props to Arturo for taking our hard earned Canadian money once again.
Dave, thx for taking us on a 20 min walk to KBBQ, it made me kill the place even more!
Mike/HvE, thanks for providing a nail biting, intense, never-should-have-gotten-that-far-in-the-first-place MM evar.
Greek, thanks for the shots mike provided at KBBQ
JS MASTER, now that i let you win will you come back to SF4 again?
MTL Crew, thanks for letting me crash in your room and making sure everything was cool with me and my car. The hotel room was too fun
Duc, I LOVE YOU. Thanks for taking me to get my car.
Snafoo!!! omg ty for beating Art in a money match!!
Henri, ty for being my 7am bedtime talk buddy… BFF
Kai, probs for going into rage mode and almost scrapping with the hotel manager…
But please, next year… no best western roehampton…
ggs all
Okay so i’m finally feeling the full blown effects of a weekend filled with smoking, being in a tournament for a whole day, then staying up until 7am playing casuals…then doing it again for another day. I feel like I’ve caught death. But in any case this has to be done.
First of all thanks to the my fellow bracket assistants Big_greek, rb_999 (also huge thanks for the vlx loansky!) and of course the real bracket organizers Emlarr, Dadesi and Gerjay who finally came out of retirement. And of course the man known as NEORUSSELL, good shit on putting this together. Even when the haters were out by the woodwork you kept your cool. of course shout outs to dice as well.
Huge shoutouts to MTL, was awesome chilling with you guys at the KBBQ sorry i lost you guys at the hotel. Also had to ditch for sunday i heard you guys were at tfns. Would’ve loved to get a session with snafoo to work on that matchup.
shoutouts to art and nerdjosh, canada was hella free, but we’ll work on that.
shoutouts to the vaughn, tfns, all the regulars, and the new faces. Make sure to come out to TFNS if you want some awesome offline sessions with players like Mr trite, buddahforce, chaos2d, rebelo who all come out to the venue.
to all the newer people hope to see you around again, the community growing helps all of us
i did it for the butter chicken!!
Shouts to everyone that made this happen!! and shouts to all the old faces i seen =) was good to see all you guys again!!
Wait you got butter chicken? Why wasn’t I given any of this food? I went 12 hours without eating at T11. =(
who won between hve and big greek?
HVE took it with the chip ex headbutt. Match was as close as it could get though, shit was hype.
Props for running the singles in a very efficient way. You guys had a good system.
Shoutout to the MTL crew for doing some damage. Shout out to Davero for that 15 min walk for the kbbq, but it was worth it in the end. Props to Mike for treating the crew some Soju with his fight money vs Big Greek.
No kidding. They litterally had about 1HP left. HvE took a lead at 3-1 at some point and Greek got real hungry. Then shit happens.
Mad respect to all that shared some knowledge with me during the weekend. I take all that shit in and I appreciate it. Was cool hanging with you guys again, and cool meeting new people. Also nuff love goes out to the MTL crew for showing me love when we hardly know each other. You guys are cool peoples.
Oh yea, major shoutouts to the MTL crew that took me into their team and gave me support when, just like Paul, we hardly knew each other.
are there videos of the ssfiv tourney on youtube or some stream site?
Article is now up!
T11: Canada?s Fighting Game Nationals at SNK-CAPCOM
Please let me know what you guys think.
edit Rebelo is Mississauga Ont thankyou very much
Done.
Hey sheik great article, would be nice if you could append it with Arturo from Team Sp00ky, that would make a otherwie great article perfect, thx
fucking hell, ure cheap shot is “incorrect”, the air grab happened in singles and not in teams (making it worse actually). Please be more biased towards Ontario next time, and suck rebelos and Arturo’s dicks harder.
otherwise nice article!
Props to all who attended, and the top three finishers, and Ill say, this was one of the smoothest tourneys ive been too. Good job guys.
Mad Props to the staff who ran the brackets,
was a very smooth sailing tournament saturday night thanks to you guys, everyone take the work you do for granted and don’t give you the props you deserve. So let it be known you guys owned that schedule.
Now MAD PROPS to STC , Flightwing and Arcade Legend, for showing up and chilling with us despite their obvious lack of interest for SSF4, glad you showed up and looking forward to party it up with you in MTL the next time around. JS Masters is the best in Ontario at talking shit, bar none, probably cause he won in MTL.
Mad Props to Davero for chilling with us and taking us to KBBQ after the tournament on saturday, it was sick, we’ll make it a tradition everytime we show up, oh yeah and your Honda and Guy aren’t too bad either. But yeah…fuck you.
Thx a whole lot to gsxtacy for taking our room in his name to make it that much easier for us all, hope everything worked out for you and that douchebag hotel management didn’t charge you extra, if that’s the case, just say so, we’ll call the best western head office and let them know how great the customer service was. Oh yeah and the way i see it, you robbed snafoo and therefore myself of some free $$$. It’s more like a loan for the next time we meet.
Thx BigGreek for talking shit and not backing it up, and for the shots…
To everyone who was in that room on the 8th floor, i dont remember all of you but i know Blitz,Mr.Trite,Dadesicanadian and some other peeps were there. To JS Master and Heero who conspired against Teddy to rob him of a 100$. I mean he knows whats the deal.Shit was mad fun, came in already intoxicated, but with all that smoke, i fell asleep in like a quarter of a second.
Mad Props to Dice, cause you know whats the deal too. Good shit at 5/10.
To whoever i forgot, I’m sorry, the thing is still somewhat blurry to me.
I think it’s fair to say I’ll be back next years, i also think you should run it in this venue again. Keep up the good work and come to MAT and get owned.
