The drama of WNF - Level Up

Why do people give a fuck who shows up to these tournaments? What kind of star-ass-kissing has the FGC turned into? They don’t come? Fuck them.

E-sports…

I liked it tbh

I’m not down with the modern day, wishes it was esports, collusion, salty, the blow up, top player worship, donate to my stream FGC

Give me the scumbags of yesteryear instead

I bet this thread lasts forever…

My definition of forever is flawed.

>implying any of that shit is brand new to the scene

Considering all the shit Watson has gone through to keep that place alive, I would be fuckin pissed too. Not the most professional way to go about it, but I can understand. Both parties handled it poorly.

Around 1:40:23 in the twitch link posted here, guy goes off on Wiz.

Watson is awesome. He’s a true grassroots mother fucker, has real love for the games and the scene that many people have forgotten with all the eSports, idol worship and the money. I don’t agree with him on a lot of things but his heart is in the right place.

The whole idea was to run back Evo 2k4. Since that as the tournament of the Daigo party, it would make sense to have Wong vs Daigo again in 3S. Getting boned last minute hurts his advertisement as a money making even for his business. Everybody else is shrugs though.

Damn. Who is that guy talking about how Wiz back-stabbed him?

Watson.

The guy on the stream sounds like a teenager. Surprised to see him rage. He seemed more like the guy to do stuff for the better of the community, not because he would expect anything in return.

Papa watts! ;-; thank you for still believing.

Does this thread have something to do with this:

EDIT: Isn’t this the same event where they will have ST as well which is posted in the ST forum?

So what I’m getting from this is that Valle went e-sports while Watson chose to stick how things always worked?

Considering all the work Valle and LU has done with Evo, they probably felt like their hand was forced.

It confuses me how people don’t understand how games like LoL get so big with promotions.
Here’s a hint, it has nothing to do with the community.

But oh well, let’s see where this goes I guess…

That’s the crux of the matter. Watson wants community, not big promotions.

Whether Watson is handling things well is another matter though . . . .

whys this in gd? this is about the fighting game community not general discussion.

'cause we loves us some drama.
