Evo stream and discussion.

The stream can be found here,seems pretty good,hopefully that doesn't change with more people watching after the pool stages.

The Friday and Saturday schedule is listed on the evo site,remember all times are -7 hours for Nevada.

Here's the Sunday schedule,where things will be very interesting:

9:00 10:30 Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike 2on2 - Finals (top 8)
10:30 12:00 Guilty Gear XX:Accent Core - Finals (top 8)

I want to see what the Americans can bring for T6: BR.

Just saw the Devastation 2009 finals and they were hot sh!t indeed.

I'm live at evo right now.. gootecks asked to leave, gooteks threw hrap3 against wall after losing to valle.... lost a $100 money bet before losing to valle.. lost his cool and raged.. that is latest

lmao

edit: Apparently this might not be true, but he also lost to a pad Fei Long player apparently so still lmao :pac:

edit 2: just lost a match or something I think he beat that guy

Yreval

Small correction: they're actually 8 hours behind. Rest of Nevada is 7 hours behind but Las Vegas is -8.

About Gootecks - I heard he beat the Fei Long player 2-1 2-1. It seems a lot of what's being said about this is just chat room trolling, though.

Apparently a few minutes ago a pad player picked Dan against Daigo. I would have loved to see how that match went.

Kinetic^

Yeah I was watching the Fei Long matchup and he won.

ATL Red vs Gootecks starts at about 56 minutes.

EDIT: No post-match drama, either.

And what if I'm not being patient?!

NeoKubrick

Anyone watching it? I wish I was there, instead. Insane, the amount of hype. Sick matches everywhere. May pick up this game just to have an ostensible reason to go next year.

Kirby

been watching it since i got home from XGC. Been some great matches. That Marn fellow felt up arturo which was hilarious

. apparently they had alot of money on the match.....

Yeah, I admire Arturo's restraint. I don't know which commentator said that Marn was nervous after the second game, because it was the exact opposite. Arturo looked really nervous, even though Marn just edged it in the second round.

Enjoyed, as always, Daigo's Ryu and Ed Ma's Akuma. Both sick and intelligent players with awesome characters, and I hope they stay in the tournament; so I can see more of them tomorrow. I don't see anyone beating Daigo, or beating Daigo if/when the number of rounds go up for matches.

Carried on as far I can. I want to stay up for the 5v5 exhibition...

Monkeyto

Despite the video fail, it's great to have some sort of stream for these tourneys.

The 5 v 5 today showed that East Coast US are pretty tough nuts in competition, saying that, the guy using Sakura was pretty decent and makes me wanna give more time to Sakura!!

Justin Wongs team just won the 3S finals,guilty gear finals up next.

NeoKubrick

Will these commentators stop saying that Ed Ma's nervous?

Daigo to win against Wong.

blag

Good call!That was a great match(Wong/Daigo),very tense,love the footsies.

Yeah, great match. Very tense in the end.

Ed Ma and Daigo should be good. I'd like to give Ed Ma the nod and not go for the obvious, but I can't see Daigo losing against Ed. Hope Dan advances: I'm all for more Ryu match-ups.

Edit: Dan got dumped.

blag

Wow,Sanford rushed Dan flawlessly,that was very impressive,I'm kinda thinking of learning Cammy properly,she's a real rushdown character,something I miss with SF4 Bison.

Kirby

Sanfords Cammy ripped Dan's Ryu up. That was THE best match of the finals so far. Totally out thought him. So happy for the console character. I'm with ya blag, Im hopping on the cammy train too!

Kirby

THIS FINAL IS AMAZING! Wong just took the first set to reset it, after suprising Daigo with Boxer. Epic stuff so far. Here we go with the 2nd set.

Jim

Amazing final.

Daigo really turned it up after Wong reset it.

blag

That could not have been any better,Daigos reactions and FADC to Ultra execution is ridiculous.I'm glad Daigo won,Justin is a great player but he let chances slip and Daigo was ruthless.

Dreddybajs

The stream was ****e on my end, still a great finals though. Not exactly surprising (apart from the move to Rog), but very fun to watch.

Dunno man, Im not a big fan of wong for various reasons......but imo he deserved to win that. He completely flumoxed daigo with that balrog. Thats like Wong's third character so im not surprised he messed one or two things up, but overall very impressive play from the pair of them. Its worth noting that it took Daigo about 7 matches to figure Wong out there. That is the FIRST time thats happened. Daigo has had wong in his pocket for a long time, so its nice to see that.

great final, down to the wire. And I'm glad they shook hands in the end.

NeoKubrick

Brilliant match I didn't think Wong had it in him to overcome the mental obstacle to beat Daigo, but he did, and unfortunately it was a stretch too far to beat him twice. Credit to both because I don't think I've seen a competitive gaming match with that amount of spectators interested and participating. The pressure looked back-breaking, and extra credit should go to Daigo for bearing much of it against the momentum of Wong's Balrog and against a large USA crowd cheering on Wong's every move.

Jim

Both players showed good respect for each other, except for Wong's usual crowd service but that's to be expected. The way the crowd reacted when he reset the game I was scared to see what would happen if he actually won.

bush

Was the live stream really choppy. Im just getting round to watching the recorded streams and its really choppy.

K.O.Kiki

Well, guess it's time to buy some EVO DVDs.

Dreddybajs

Yeah bush, for me it was freezing every 15-20 seconds for about 10 seconds as well. Was talking to someone in the US who had it just as choppy but without the freezes.

It was a little choppy for me but I had no freeze at all,the choppiness didn't spoil it or anything,overall I thought the stream was really good.

Sabre0001

Stream was choppy for me when I tuned in but then again, there were 10,000 viewers hitting up the stream (and that was well before some of the bigger finals!).

Only thing that bothers me is that Evo site brackets aren't updated - they did a great job on Day 1......and then just forgot about it!

There are no evo DVDs this year,all the footage is going on IGN Insider,which apparantly will have HD quality downloads.I think it's around $15 to sign up,might just be worth it.

Kirby

I'd prefer the dvd tbh. I think its a shame they are trying to gouge people by teaming up with IGN to get people into a subscription service they don't want. :rolleyes: Probably better off watching the matches for free off various websites.

Regarding the free stream, it was pretty awful. Was freezing all weekend but when the final came on, it stopped freezing for me which was great. Still low fps tho, which was a shame. But you could tell what was going on.
