The Cross Assault thread (link to stream in 1st post)

is that what people are mad about?

cause jago-mike rivalry was fake? seriously? i hope thats not it.

cause if so…no shit.

  1. Mike Ross says SFxT is the best game ever created
  2. Stages a set against his ‘‘rival’’ Jago
  3. ???
  4. ‘‘It ain’t about playin’ anymore, it’s about that papeeeer!’’

What’s the problem? We are discussing stuff from cross assault in the damn cross assault thread. Would it be better if I made a comment about Super_Yan’s thighs?

They should just have a disclaimer: Drama is fake, the matches are real. I don’t mind getting lied to on drama, but throwing matches??? Not cool.

I plead the 5th

Yes.

Damn.

See I didn’t think it was staged and I didn’t think their rivalry was as BAD as they/everyone made it out to be. I knew they were exaggerating it and all but I didn’t think they’d stage the outcome of the match and shit.

I agree with the other poster, my views on Mike Ross has changed a bit. :frowning:

Nah, at least with the JP rivalries, they actually go to the US, steal money from the ‘tops’ and go home to be family men.

Actually I think it happened before in Starcraft. I forgot the players name, but he threw some games in some betting scandal. That’s actually a shitload more than the 1k going on here though.

BTW Sumo is supposed to be a sport built on honor and tradition, and even that is staged.

Everything was staged:

-EVO Moment #37.
-The Wong Factor.
-“Oni is banned” meme.
-Bionic Arm.
-Noel punches SmoothViper.
-Fanatiq vs Megaman Steve.
-Chris Hu’s English. He can actually speak perfectly.
-Marlin Pie’s ability to not block.
-Frame Trap’s sudden disappearance.
-Marn’s victory against Daigo.
-EMP.
-Floe.

People really believed it and Art owes me for all these Team Mike Ross and Team Jago shirts I just had made that are now WORTHLESS

I think its been clear for a while that Floe has taken the people’s champ title, and this has only solidified it for me. I don’t really care if the match was staged or not, they can do whatever they want, but its not really ‘people’s champ’ material, y’know?

Really? Some people think we care about the beef? I care about faked matches and the big names in the FGC declaring SFxT the best game ever.

:rofl:oh man, this is too fuckin good, gets better and better:rofl:

“I FAKED ALL THOSE FLIPPED TABLES”

Who cares if the drama was staged or not, even if there was a possibility of the shit even being real. What matters is that two participants basically scammed the outcome by sandbagging/losing on purpose to share winnings. Regardless of esports, hype, or Miranda’s delicious thighs, that is, by all competitive standards…completely fucked up.

Also, needs to be mentioned again, Miranda’s thighs. White girl got back.

i knew the rivalry was staged…but i do kinda think that throwing a match for 1000 dollars in the home of the people who are paying you isn’t really right.

having said that, this is the same company that’s going to rape everyone silly with sfxt dlc, so i really don’t give a shit.

but yea, i don’t think that rigging matches is a good look, and ultimately i think that this is going to cost mike ross and jago down the line. they’ll probably have to pay that money back.

so you think capcom wasn’t in on the match throwing? whos to say that both players weren’t payed 1k to fly out and have that staged match.

Staging…video games
