Word on SBO 2009 Teams?

what an interesting team for RX - can’t say he has better chances w/ this team than roshi/sugiyama though. hopefully the beast of sbo5 returns. i don’t like koshun(sp?), always seemed like the least solid commonly seen chun. i hope kuroda enters.

RX-Vanawo-Koushun team is crazy
We all know RX, the other two play their characters in an unhortodox but interesting way. I wouldn’t sleep on Koushun - he chokes a bit too often compared to the top chuns, but he plays very aggressive and tricky.

Anyone know what’s good with Yamazaki?

Exo’s such a 3rd Strike nerd. Good luck to him if he really goes…he’s gonna need it. I’ve been meaning to practice with him more often though. I feel like I could have learned a lot more if I played with him more often. Instead I gotta wait till J.Wong wants to give me tips after a match. :lol:

lol hell yea…this part of the year is the greatest for any fighting gamer…just hearing about the quals is sooo HYPED

cant wait to go to SBO this year :lovin:

Best of luck to that guy…i know he has what it takes to beat ass over there…i just hope he doesnt screw it up by not getting enough sleep or some BS

HOLY CRAP

i think Boss’s team is waiting to see how the qualifiers go or something to determine what character to use and i dont think they know if Matsuda is gonna team with Umezono or not

This is just me thinkin out loud but lets just say idk what im talkin about

ive played koshun a lot and he is fucking GDLK

wow very interesting teams…nuki not being serious? (teaming w/ akahori, lol)

can you link us to the source??

Its on the Tougeki website.

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. Those players might be mentioned on the site but it may not explicitly say they’re teaming up in that fashion this year. We need to get a reliable translator before getting worked up.

Boss / Riki / Momochi sounds truly amazing.

Btw, the wiki confirms that the first team qualified is Nuki’s one:
http://wikiwiki.jp/3rd/

B-5 ??? ??(CH) / ???(HU) / ???(YU)*

And today we have this to look forward:
C-2 4?4??? / Game SKY

** the name of the team is a parody of last year’s RX army, lol.*

Now that Akahori qualified we have at least one Hugo in this SBO.

Last year had some sick Oros, Remy and Twelve performances.

Hopefully this year will see some sick Hugo and Ryu action along with the sickness last year.

According to the report:
RX’s team met Nuki’s team in the final after defeating Pierrot’s team.
Kochun O - X ???
Kochun O - X Yakkun
Kochun X - O Nuki
Vanao X - O Nuki
RX X - O Nuki

Hope RX would change his team (with Roshi and a YUN player).

Pay attention to the runner-up.

^^ Game Sky results

SBO Qualifed ~ Yoi-Yami (Ibuki) \ Gucchin (Makoto) \ Hiroshi (Dudley)

Runner-up ~ Kokujin (DU) \ Yaoichi (KE) \ Yuki-Otoko (Gouki)

You all need to relax with this “Oh, so and so needs to team up with this person or with these characters”. What I really like about SBO is that most of the players mix-up their teams and join up with others, maybe not for the best from speculation but I think it keeps it interesting atleast. Unfortunately, there are plenty of deserving players out there, but only one team can win it all. Cheer on your favorites and hope for the best - looks like there’s gonna be plenty of nasty teams again.

i never heard of the players that won the Game Sky qualifier

and they beat kokujins team too with NOO chun, yun or ken

this is gonna be an exciting year :lovin: cant wait to go

Vanao and Koshun are buff as fuck. His team is fine, though Vanao could probably be the weaker link.

yeah…

Unrelated sidenote:

Aiku is entering the SF4 competition this year using Bison, not sure if he will still enter 3s.

That’s a pretty beast team. Ibuki, Tomboy, Dandy.

Yamazaki?

Easuto?

Shamoji?
