The last KUSC was streamed on twitch.tv/chartfellow

Under 18 tournament?

 

[Djent]

Those are some crazy rules. I'm not sure I fully understand them.

 

[Jucchan]

Basically: Can you beat Ranai in a 3v1, 3 minute time mode, items on?
It's not a tournament, it's like an event booth.

 

[Djent]

Huh. That's neat.

 

[juddy96]

Speaking of weird rules, I asked Nasubi what happened to KUSC 2, and he said it was a 4 player items on all stages tournament

 

[Jucchan]

Sumabato 10 is 5/29.

1st KEN
2nd Shuton
3rd DNG | Nietono
4th Kamemushi [???]
5th Eim
5th kept
7th [not sure how to type out that name] ?
7th Brood
9th 9B
9th #THE Abadango
9th Shu [???]
9th shky ???

Look at Shuton's bracket!

 

[Djent]

That's mostly correct. 7th place is either bAhuto or bAfuto; he co-mains . We saw shky using on-stream. Pretty sure Shu is done with . Kamemushi and Shuton won at least one game with and , respectively.

 

[thehard]

FMY big Umebura event (2day tourney, Japan vs World) is being held on 21th and 22th August. But maybe no prize. Is anyone interested?

— あばだんご🍡 | SNB (@Abadango) April 25, 2016

Oooh

Better yet, I'm reading the comment chain and top players are showing interest, including ZeRo!

According to Aba, it's a sequel of sorts to Umebura FAT, called Umebura SAT (Second Anniversary Tournament).

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Here are more detailed results from Umebura 22, including all of top 16 [and below] so Das Koopa can use it for his statistics.


Umebura 22
Tokyo, Japan
200 entrants
Bracket: http://challonge.com/umebura22
[I can translate it if requested unless juddy96 has already done so]

1st KEN
2nd Shuton
3rd Nietono
4th Kamemushi
5th kept
5th Eim
7th bAhuto
7th Brood
9th Abadango
9th 9B
9th shky
9th Shu
13th Atelier
13th Songn
13th Takera
13th Yazawa


Notes:
- Shuton lost WR2 to Yazawa but still made it to 2nd place!
- Didn't see Shuton make any advancements with Corrin Djent
- Likewise I'm not sure if Kamemushi actually beat anybody with Cloud and the only time I've seen him use Yoshi was against Shuton, where he lost [I think this shouldn't count for Koopa's stats?]
- Kamemushi beat both 9th placing Bayonetta players, sending 9B to losers and eliminating Shu!
- At least 9 different characters in top 8, none of them used by another top 8 placing entrant!
- Earth placed only 33rd, Rain even 65th

 

[Djent]

Shuton didn't advance with Corrin, but he did use her to win game 2 vs. Yazawa/Ryuji. For Das Koopa's purposes, I think he's only including characters that won sets, so he should use your listing minus Yoshi as well. FYI I typically include any characters that win game(s) in the OP listing, that is unless there's like a zillion of them.

EDIT: I should mention that bAhuto's and Kame's are also unconfirmed by Das Koopa standards; they didn't win anything on stream IIRC, though bAhuto used Luigi vs. Kisha for one game that he lost. However, it's still a pretty safe bet that they were useful at some point.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

I'm counting bAhuto's Luigi then but not any of Kamemushi's secondary characters.

 

[Das Koopa]

I list characters that win any games at all. I won't list a character if:

-They were used unsuccessfully (notable examples are things like VoiD's Mewtwo or that one time Ally used Shulk and got rekt)
-I don't know the player's main for sure in situations where there's no stream match
-When a player (PASERIMAN D:< ) uses a boatload of characters without a clear main.

So yeah if a player won a game I'll list it, but I caught the secondaries Gheb put down before he edited his post. Thanks, btw, it can be really hard to document Japanese results.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

You should use my post-edit results then. Counting Shuton's Corring would be complete bogus imo.

I always translate brackets during the stream at http://challonge.com/users/juddy96. As a side note I've already translated this weekend's KSB bracket pools.

 

[Djent]

Projected Saiya vs. Souther rematch in pools WF...lol.

 

[juddy96]

I forgot to mention, 8 players bypass pools for KSB 2016 by virtue of doing well at designated events

Komorikiri - Sumabato
Nasubi - Sumabato
KEN - Umebura
Kamemushi - Umebura
9B - Karisuma
ikep - Hirosuma
Yamanyon - Shulla-bra
Earth - PreKVO

Not sure which one I find more amusing:

a.) Kamemushi cockblocking Bayonetta players like a boss
b.) how hard certain top players got bodied collectively [Rain, Nyanko, Choco, Motsunabe]

 

[Djent]

As promised, matches from the first Kurobura are starting to go up on SHI-Gaming. So far they have Nietono vs. Aiba, Nietono vs. Songn, Kamemushi vs. Songn, and Umeki vs. Kamemushi.

Also, judging by this tweet, it looks like the Kurobura event on 05/29 is actually two smaller tournaments held on the same day. Kurobura 2 isn't actually happening until 08/20.

I don't think you will be surprised that "Lempel" (it should be Ranperu) plays

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Now that Bayonetta is getting nerfed I take it that Rain, Shu and Nyanko are picking up Cloud and continue to not get **** done anymore?

 

[Djent]

Who knows what Japan will do when every character is well-balanced?

Here are some of the videos of Yuzu's Rosalina you've asked for. I personally don't think he's particularly good but I leave that one up to your own personal judgment ...

There should be at least one more set of him coming up sometime soon against Yoc's Corrin.

 

[Djent]

He's pretty good but he definitely had a comparatively easy bracket. The same thing happened at Kurobura 1, actually.

You guys got any information on players that are interested in making it through to Evo?

 

[Djent]

For those of you who missed Sumabato 10 (or just couldn't bear the awful stream quality), videos are going up now.

Sign-ups for Hirosuma 4 have been pretty disappointing so far. At least we'll see OCEAN , FILIP , and Ri-ma .

 

[juddy96]

I can confirm the characters for HST 10

1) Dainagon (Dai)
2) Julie.
3) Yario
4) Nariyasu

 

[Djent]

juddy96 Can you confirm whether Aki actually used at Sumabato 11? Das Koopa has her listed by his name.
