Poor Sean

Poor Sean
2nd Impact he was the strongest character outright... 3rd Strike hes one of the worst and even his canon ending where he defeats everybody is a dream 
you wanna destroy a character, this is how
dark tinsel
He got the Melee Kirby treatment but worse
in terms of fighting games nerf history, I don't think theres a bigger one
nerfed for lore
nerfed to be as bad as Dan in any other SF game

colourblind mode needs an epilepsy warning
genius
the best filters are just sliders that have you adjust stuff as needed and the sliders all work with each other anyways
colour blindness is on a spectrum, you can just slap filters on and call it a day
some people need more colour adjustments and some need less
you have to actually account for that
like wtf is this dawg

naaahh just a black n white pattern that makes following actions extremely difficult to follow with a background filter that nobody likes

Man I really wanted to go to EVO this year because it's Tekken 8's debut but
Lowkey the lineup sucks this year
and then my job has decided it hates me and is giving me fewer shifts
so I have very little money
dark tinsel
I want to go more than ever
they want EVERY controller working for 3rd Strike
and want to get the most machines ever seen for any 3S event
my pad will work
if I go, the goal is top 16

T8 SF6 GGS are lit
Granblue and Uni are cool
MK1 sucks ass
KOFXV sucks ass
And 3rd Strike is going to be Chun Li and Ken and Ken and Ken and Chun Li and Chun Li for its top 6

i mean yes MK1 sucks but the vast majority of the lineup is like
good
its also the new MK game its gotta get mainstage at least once

We all knew MK1 was going to be there but I'm just a hater
Game's not fun to watch at all
And KOF is back

i have 0 interest in mk as a whole
i meant more the lineup as a whole sucking, i cannot comment on KoF
but like the lineup does not suck because of 2 games
is what i meant
every other entry is a banger

btw this is the first time 3S is gonna be more than cabinet play, since it'll let people use any controller , at least thats the plan, so the fightcade monsters that actively beat justin any others are a threat

SmoothViper won MvC2 tournament, Noel Brown won the UMvC3 tournament, both of which were part of this infamous moment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTNya_UUNFY
the YOO MARVEELLL moment
and Noel Brown being one of the people who should have been ousted from the community for assault (not alleged) still being allowed here is crazy when INFILTRATION one of the greatest SF players all time is still blackballed from competiting for his alleged actions
then seeing dekillsage winning skullgirls, and brentt winning SF4 is so many levels of sad funny they both finally win when the gods of their games are gone/dont care

i think ppl underestimate how much money an event of this scale costs in las vegas lol
dark tinsel
and how much money floods into pools when you get big time sponsors
stuck swan
exactly
dark tinsel
its also kind of not fair because hes comparing to when EVO was on ESPN
stuck swan
like it sucks but the reason the number was previously higher was because capcom added stuff to the grand prize no?
dark tinsel
they did pump in more for SF6's first run through yeah
its been rebalanced different this year
stuck swan
like it sucks that the money is so low but like
EVO needs way more money to run than people realise
renting out the convention venue is like probably closing in on a million all by itself
and like yes sure sponsors but like for example sony is probably not really providing hard cash so much as they are providing equipment
dark tinsel
its far more equipment push and INZONE all over
dark tinsel
I think its just over for them, one of my friends still in LV is a volunteer and has been since its been in Vegas... im sad I never went with him

this is all stupid though, we all know this is all funded by Pokimane and her overpriced cookies
stuck swan

but yeah event scaling is so fucking huge
you can run small events on a shoestring but the moment it has a hint of growing suddenly expenses are out the ass
we have so many horror stories of conventions failing because they just didnt plan finances right and underestimated how much it would take
dark tinsel
need Jebailey to comment on this, he runs CEO and whole reason they went from... I forget where to Daytona was previous placed wanted some 7 digits or something
stuck swan
also i dont even wanna know what their internet bill is
never show me that shit
i dont wanna know
i know its absurd amounts of money
dark tinsel
ive heard the numbers
stuck swan
do NOT tell me its not information i need in my brain
knowing its absurd amounts is enough
they had what, 7 main evo streams?
dark tinsel
OH
well I found one of the tweets relevant and... internet cost was part of it
for Orlando convention center
stuck swan
dark tinsel
they had what, 7 main evo streams?
7 main, 18 community tourns
all different twitch channels
dark tinsel
oh shit
Jebailey 2 years ago
One day CEO will be back in Orlando & I'll make it work.
Daytona contract has run its course fast
stuck swan
lmao
dark tinsel
its even more depressing because so many TOs dont make money off this, the only 3 places to have any kind of profit is EVO, CEO, and Big E's tournaments which hes dropped out of running them
stuck swan
but yeah people dont understand that las vegas EVO costs multiple millions of dollary doos to host and sponsors dont always provide hard cash necessarily
dark tinsel
every other major tournament not funded by official places fall out
stuck swan
usually its mostly like, offsetting certain costs by footing the bill
so your thing can actually run
also iirc audio and lighting is union? so rates cant really go very low there
stuck swan
every other major tournament not funded by official places fall out
yep
like sponsors are there to make sure the shit like
stays affloat
and doesnt die
not to add money to prize pool
dark tinsel
The event typically generated a $3 million annual economic impact
For CEO in Orlando, that was before the FGC really blew up
he put in work
stuck swan
sounds about right
dark tinsel
bless him
The LVCVA Research Center projects that roughly 20,000 people will gather for this yearโs EVO, accounting for a total economic impact of more than $40 million.

also i notice he doesnt mention the 2nd US EVO but mentions EVO Japan
like what
this is like saying having more cake at the party is diluting the meaning of having cake at the party
also this has the potential of being an extremely funny sidequest of trying to win all 4 EVOs a year

trump card: visa problems
stuck swan
LMAO TRUE
but yeah such a silly argument
my sentiment would be keeping it in like 2 countries is actually diluting the competition because people who cant make it and are potentially tough competitors arent there
dark tinsel
its even funnier because theres been clear examples that being so wrong like Tokyo Game Show, it was a mega tournament that sent the winner to EVO who every single year shook the competition, all because they couldnt travel out of local
and its the same for so many places
Ai Ai from Japan, Pepeday from Japan, Keoma from Brazil, all got sent to the big tournament and disrupted order
it doesnt dilute it just brings out all the warriors
