TournamentWars Final @ Bloody Knuckles - 02/28/10

Shit was hype as usual. Good early matches.

Again, and I ain’t jockin: Good shit Fae for keeping up with the flow. Rock the f’ on.

Props to ESL for putting up a good fight against Francis. Dude pitched a perfect game, didn’t lose a ROUND! WTF

Double KO was unexpected hype…albeit gross. Good shit to the Grandmasters for gettin that .5 again!

3 dollar guinesses!!!

I liked the no practice last night, it made for a great pace, no fuss no muss. Get them money matches started earlier, nice.

Good shit last night everyone, except for us…not satisfied with the lost, still upset about it actually. I’m taking GRANDMASTERS OUT next time around :wink:

Results will be up soon and the page will be updated as well…I need to take nap.

Good games everyone, especially Elias and Emanuel. Well played guys. I have a pretty good idea of the mistakes I made. Looking forward to seeing the videos.

And Mike, your match was the best of the night. Even though you didn’t win, you definately came correct. Good shit.

Was fun as usual, and I stayed until 5AM again even though I was planning on leaving at 2AM.

Crazy night…If you haven’t made it to a TW event yet, GET THERE! It’s an awesome event even if your not heavily into the scene…great environment, awesome people to chill with and there’s DRINKS!

Good stuff to Francis and Tanaka for the Ocv’s! And major shutout to Elias for leveling up that game so hard! People can check results right here for those who are interested:

Tournament Wars Results: Team Boss’ double header!

EDIT: And I know I didn’t say so in the article, but I’ll say it here, GREAT stuff to BowFlex Mike for holding his own! Dude if you strengthen up your fundamentals a bit more (zoning read anti airs, discipline read being patient, execution) you would have had Tanaka for sure…keep up the good work!

Note to self: don’t choke.

Luckily those beasts Elias and Emmanuel are on my team, bwahaha. Good shit BOSS, Paul I’m coming for you first-born daughter next time around.

For my first TW, gotta say…event is buff.

Noise complaints suck. Since we KNOW these are all going to be hype. :frowning:

james stanley good shit for making it out, same with the acacio family and the tekken crew. i was majorly fucked up so i apologize if i didnt talk to you hhahahahahah and yes those were some good ass matches. practice up everybody you dont have to play this coming saturday but the next saturday its on!

mandel and elliots commentary was great. i witnessed mandel rage quit on the mic and elliott banned me from the mic. that was great. overall night was JURASSIC

Yeah, Mandel rage quitting on the mic was interesting.

That double KO brought the fucking roof up hella. Props to that Ken. Dope footsies the entire match.

Man, I might as well not come if Francis is leading off for my team, I’d save gas, money, sleep… Naw mean?

Nice meeting everyone last night, will definitely be coming to all of these.

Yea - playing Francis’ Dhalsim was painful, to say the least. Made me feel like shit so much afterwards. Sigh. Could not get on the guy at all. At fucking all.

I mean, I played lots of Dhalsims online and I thought I was pretty much onto their strategies, I thought I would do alright against Francis…

Goddammit, why can’t I fight some ‘regular’ character at TW’s, meaning one that isn’t Zangief or Dhalsim lol.

That shit was jurassic!

I want to talk about something that is really bothering me, and that’s the money matches.

To be honest, I fucking hate money matches. Always have always will, in my opinion it takes away what these and other events (like EVO) are all about.

And to be honest I don’t like the fact that I have to put up money to play against someone.

I don’t like how money matches are taking precedence over casuals. Casuals are there so that people that aren’t in TournamentWars or people outside of Team Seattle but are interested in SFIV can get the chance to play against us.

So I’m implementing this from here on out.

The main setup is for casuals only, no money matches. If you want to have a money match, bring another set up. I catch money matches going on on the main set up, you’ll get a warning, after that you’ll be banned from TournamentWars.

It honestly pisses me off that as soon as matches are done the first thing that I hear is “WHO WANTS TO MONEY MATCH?!” from someone. There are people there that would like to play w/o putting up money. There are some people that can’t even put up a dollar. I know I shouldnt’ve with my broke ass.

+1 if I could rep.

I seriously support this.

I’m in the boat where I know I’m not good enough to put money on a match and have any chance of not losing it. We have all of the best players in Seattle in one place at one time and it’s the perfect time for the players who aren’t the top dogs (and even the ones who are) to have a match that everyone will be watching and can get advice from all angles.

No money matches means our weaker players are going to have a chance to really improve with the guidance of our top tier in Seattle.

Good shit everybody. I was only there for a bit trying to establish the Black and Brown connection so apologies if I did not get around to socializing as much. Seems like some beast matches took place though.
