Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
So I see a lot of characters missing from last top 8. All because of the balance change, or just rng?

That burst bait/punish was good. Also the gently caress is Leo he just presses buttons.

AFAIK Xrd is comparatively balanced and when you see a lot of the same characters in top 8s it's because you're seeing a lot of the same players, not because those characters are stronger.

Omito is so loving sick. Like he didn't lose a single game there, no way he's losing 6 to anyone in grand finals

That's exactly what he is and why I hate playing against him. Every move looks the same and things just happen.

The same thing will happen five times in a row. Sometimes halfway through it's from the other side. Sometimes there's poo poo on screen so you can't see which side.

I have no idea how Leo plays but he's the character I use when I just want to button mash and feel like I'm hitting stuff good.

This is absolutely not a statement meant to say he's a mindless character and any scrub can use him. Just that even if he looks really basic and boring from the outside in, he's actually kinda hard to get a handle on if you want to play him competently at all IMO. I've really enjoyed watching Tomo play.

Seems fun and good.

Smug got bopped by Brolynho in losers.

Down to Bonchan next match tho. Well, top 32 is still the best run by a Brazilian player in SF EVO.

You guys were not kidding about those player character select screens. That is some top-tier comedy. My favorite so far is the Chris G one.

If two attacks clash it triggers Danger Time which for a limited time makes everything do 20% extra damage and certain attacks automatically crush counter.
