I would have to say Daigo all the way…But hey if he doesn’t come then it’s all you DXP.
definitely not your scrub ass.
Isn’t Daigo like one of the worst of the top japanese ST players, and also rusty as hell? Not that it’l stop him from being a threat, but I wouldn’t be so confident in him getting first unless he’s in serious training in the short term.
Wolfes are hella hungry, but are they practicting on Console ST?
Gian is pretty dirty and he beasted through practically everyone when he came.
Deep down I always want an OG like Watts, Choi or Cole to win but I think those guys are to busy with real life to get back into playing SF competitively.
so what you’re really saying is…afrolegends will beast on me in finals?
No he isn’t one of the worst. His Ryu is ranked second in Japan (Shooting D being ranked top) and he could not play for an entire year and still be a big threat at Evo. Not trying to sound like a Daigo “fanboy” or whatever, but you can look at the Japanese ST rankings in the Super Turbo section of the strategy zone.
Yeah, Daigo is still pretty high up there in japanese rankings, this is one the games that if he doesn’t practice, it seems like he’s still pretty damn good. I doubt he’d take first though.
I know I want to make it to semi or something atleast.
I don’t keep up with the Japanese scene, just last I heard he wasn’t playing as much, but was still beasting regardless. I’m surprised I wasn’t flamed to hell within 5 minutes of posting something about Daigo not being the best at something actually…
And second best Ryu means shit unless theres a tournament where every other character is banned. Rank someone compared to everyone, not just people who use the same character.
I just turned 21 so…me.
I’ll root for Nuki and NKI the most. I hope Otochun, Muteki and Kurahashi comes to Evolution. As far as I am concerned, Gian will take it.
I like one of the Wolfe brothers to take it. DXP is a beast on his own stick and will go really far (I anticipate top 5) but those brothers are true monsters. I don’t know what Japanese players are attending so I can’t really throw an opinion that way.
I got Jason Cole
NKI over DXP free.
Gian will blow every1 up rags!
NKI basically said in another thread that Daigo, Gian and a few others are the top japanese players, pretty much on the same level. Daigo also took the only SBO that featured ST. Basicaly he is pretty good. Fanboys may hate it, but he lost Evo last year because some US players are really good too.
He lost because some US players are really good, and because he was totally out of practice. Anyone who follows the Japanese ST scene will tell you that Evo2006 was probably the worst Daigo has ever played. (Same goes for 3S.)
how did dsp vote for himself 11 times is what I want to know.
Actually I voted for the OGs.
Hmmm…this is a tough choice so I’m not voting for now.
cole because hes black
