Think before you talk
You can't even play around about being the best at marvel. You'll get your **** exposed LMAO

An all honestly i'm mad solid and if I beat floe I would of got top 8. Next matches would of been against luis who I usually beat then emp remix who i'm pretty sure I would of beat soundly.

And that's without knowing how to play dante lol.


Sorry if I slept on tampa. It's just none of them made it into top at ceo. Where sfl got 17th, 16th, 13,13, and 8th

Sorry for the misunderstanding I suppose. Now i'm off to work.

Wake and Bake got 3rd at a recent tourney with some good Orlando/Tampa players (Eder, CJ Truth, Eddie Vale). Now the overall talent level may not be as good as SFL but you shouldn't discredit someone you haven't seen play.

Knowing the history of a video game community that sucked and still sucks?
This would include you as well, mother****er. I never understood the self-hate mentality a lot of smashers have. If you truly believe this, NEVER hype another no-name Tampa player again.

If you don't know history, you have no basis for what's negative or what could be successful.

If the average smasher is still this much of a dolt, I can see myself regretting my return.... but at least I'm not doing it for myself.

Fighters pale in comparison to RTS in every way. What's your point?

Popularity or "fun" isn't the point. It makes no sense to stay in a game and hype randoms when there's no money being pumped (esp. with the level of self-hate being displayed). edit: but if you are going to, at least teach history and attempt to have the community redeem itself (instead of w/e the **** people do nowadays.... hype no-names and hand out yellow cards? -- j/k idk??).

I highly disagree with fighters paling in comparison to RTS's...its 2 completely different types of games. Brawl attempts to be a fighter,but fails, terribly.

Before the metagame progressed to what it is now (which is just patient play/counterpicking), i enjoyed brawl.

I'll def be playing umvc unless its campy. Then i'll probably play sf x t

sc:bw and sc2 have entire industries based around them and are supported by massive corporations

sc2 is kicking halo off of the main stage at MLG this weekend (something that a fighter could never do)

a game/esport is a game/esport. it's pretty hard to disagree with #'s and where money is going

brawl sucks **** sure, but there's more to it than just the gameplay being campy

? Fighters also have entire industries based around them, and are also supported by massive corporations. MLG is a joke, and pretty much caters almost COMPLETELY to the casual gamer (Halo:Reach on main stage? Lol) with the exception of SC2. And the only reason they have SC2 up there is because they put WoW up there (blizzard made WoW and SC2) besides its competitve following i mean.

The gameplay isn't just campy, its also about counterpicking. Honestly bro go an dlook at the recent nationals, its not rushdown your seeing. The top level has changed alot over the years, and i would say not for the better.

You really can't compare the 2 in terms of popularity or money backing them. At this exact moment, there's roughly 14,500 people watching streams related to sc2. For fighting games (sf4, mvc3 and mk9), it's only 630~. (this is only off of justin.tv/twitch.tv)

Couldn't find any prize figures for evo2k11 but evo2k10's prize pool for sf4 was 20k. Brawl singles at genesis 2 was like 6,875 total or some ****. For MLG Anaheim, the prize pool is $14,000 and there are 5 of these over the year (with an additional 120k for the finals in providence). I'm not even gonna talk about the GSL in korea which has prize pools over the next year in the millions (and is sponsored by ****ing Pepsi) or all the other major/minor tournaments (TSL, NASL, IEM, HSC, geforce pro/am, plantronics etc.).

My point is not that Brawl isn't ****ty. It IS ****ty (trust me i know about the current state of the game).

My point is that Brawl is closer to the success of other fighting games (w/out any real backing) than Fighting games are to SC2.

Your checking streams while there are no tournaments going on. The difference between SC and SF/MvC (fighters in general) is that we have local tournaments, regionals, and nationals that youa ren't aware of like SB, SBO (International Tourney), Dreamhack, FinalRound, CEO (as of this year) and many more i cant think of off the top of my head. And thats not including the many many many local tournaments all throughout America. Plus you're looking at a single game, how about BlazBlue? MvC3? TekkeN? Soul Calibur? Theres multiple games in the fighter category. And brawls success isn't near any of them, and fighters are right there with SC2. Easily. Check back on the streams this weekend, while Evo is going.

Dude, 14,500~ people are watching SC2 with NOTHING really going on. I would be very surprised if evo's numbers are higher than MLG's for sc2 (and this is 1 stop in a tour, not a finals/yearly). Unfortunately, it'd be difficult to prove because MLG will prolly split SC2 into 2 streams (and also stream low-quality on j.tv) and not release concurrent/unique viewer #'s after. So, you can only really confirm the LQ j.tv stream #'s.

I am aware of all of those tournaments. Regardless, the #'s haven't come close. I remember watching Shadowloo shodown and it had around 20-25k. A fairly small sc2 tourney (in comparison to other sc2 tournaments) running at the same time had 20-30k. This is from memory of my experience (peak #'s could be diff.).

Brawl's success is more equatable to other fighters than fighters are to sc2.

Except the numbers your pulling mean nothing, you completely ignored the fact that tournaments for SC are not nearly as commona s tournaments for fighters, then ignored that there are more regionals/nationals for fighters then SC, and then tried to make the argument that stream viewers = bigger scene. Nothing about this is basic math, you are drawing evidence and coming to a conclusion, just as i am. If you want we can look at tournament entrants for all the major tournaments in 2010 for SF/BlazBlue/MvC, and compare them to tournaments for SC.

Not going to lie; I'd play sc2 competitively if I had the time to commit to it. It takes WAAAAYYY more time and effort than brawl to even play it at a tournament level, let alone advance far in brackets. That's time I don't have.

I'll likely just stay a competitive ladder player in it, thats all.

Geoff bro you have multiple tournaments listed separately because of multiple days lol. Listen, i really really don't care that much about this subject. It's not that big of a deal, at the end of the day, brawl sucks, and the community pales in comparison to 2d fighters. Thats it.

Look i'll make you happy SC2 is bigger and completely superior to 2d fighters infact im quitting mvc right now for SC2 real talk.

so far, brawl community is more fun than fighter community (and im comparing when i first started brawl to now, not my current exposure of brawl community to current SRK)

but maybe thats just the city of orlando

i love sc. everyone talk to me about sc. i WISH i could learn the game but as mav said, **** takes YEARS to learn. each second wasted in that game doing nothing will realistically be your downfall especially in the beginning.

anyway yea sc is THE MOST popular game next to actual real sports in terms of popularity, consistent viewers and sponsors (pepsi is ONLY one of MANY), the fighting community wishes they could get that popularity, but it is actually getting there recently. especially sf4, the game is bringing in legit sponsors like madcatz and etc.

evo this year is basically now an e3 for 2d fighters having actual panels at the venue which is phenomenal advertisement for the community.
2d fighters are very well on their way to being recognized and respected globally
