Oh that is pretty cool, Japan too good.

 

[King Omega]

Just playful exaggeration.

 

[Prydeless]

Very Impressive btw.

 

[Unneurotic]

Daiki (Wario) & Umehara (Peach) defeated M2K & Vinnie in losers bracket.
All of American and European teams are out.

 

[CYVE]

what did m2k and vinnie place?

 

[Hylian]

what did m2k and vinnie place?

Stream said they got destroyed.

Edit: They lost to Daiki + Umeki in losers, a Peach and Wario team.

Edit: The streamer is saying there is a big debate in japan right now on which is better in teams: Double MK or Double Wario. Semi finals right now is double mk vs double wario. kakera and maguro vs yukke and abadango

 

[SFA Smiley]

Gdubs wario tho

 

[Unneurotic]

Updated Bracket here

 

[Hylian]

PikaPika and Shadow outplaced M2K/Vinnie >_> lol.

 

[King Omega]

M2Vinnie vs. Kakera/Maguro wasn't really destruction, but they did lose pretty badly. We didn't see them get eliminated in losers, though, so who knows how that went.

Spoiler

We saw the team that beat them, though, and the didn't look particularly good.

EDIT: If the NND info is accurate day 2 will start at 9:30 AM Japan time, and they'll need to switch to the second stream 6 hours later at 3:30 PM. For those of us on EST, that's http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv103281473 at 8:30 PM and http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv103281662 at 2:30 AM.

But y'all should just watch on http://ja.twitch.tv/filip1122 if not both. Thanks as always to Unneurotic for the links.

 

[clowsui]

if quik had teamed w vinnie i wonder what would've happened xD

 

[Eddie G]

Yup, Japan is undoubtedly the superior country in doubles. Convinced of it now.

Good **** to the Japanese Peaches btw.

 

[Unneurotic]

"East Japan vs Other regions" Crew battle (8 vs 8) will be happened tomorrow.

East Japan - 1: Nietono 2: Rain 3: Otori 4: Yui 5: Brood 6: Mikeneko 7: ? 8: ? (the two players aren't decided yet)

Other regions - I guess the members will be selected from M2K, Vinnie, Earth, Masha, Sakasaka, Kakera, Maguro, Kie, Aki and quiKsilver.

Ok...

1. Japan is WAYYYY better in doubles than we all thought initially. Remember what it was like at Apex? Now imagine half the room having weird shenanigans.
2. A lot of their randoms would 3 stock our randoms.
3. Wario is completely underrated in the US
4. %80 of MK`s can keep up with M2K (What does that tell you about our MK`s?)
5. They all have an eagerness to learn easily exceeding the US`
6. They don`t even play for money normally!!!
7. North America needs to step it up...NOW.

Carlos Zambrano Let me give you a reference point**

Vinnie and M2K got 17th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Grim Tuesday]

Cassio, what makes you say Wario is underrated in the US? Doubles is a whole different bag of worms to singles.

 

[C.J.]

That wasn't Cassio. That was Cassio c/ping Havok's status from FB.

 

[Grim Tuesday]

I see, I see.

 

[SFA Smiley]

Nobody has ever underestimated Wario in doubles. Or in singles for that matter as far as I can tell.

 

[clowsui]

Apparently Vinnie has a reputation for being *** in doubles in NY (source: ANTi) but it's still worthy of note that while M2K could carry people alone to top5 in the USA V+M2K placed outside t16 in JP

 

[Shadocat]

9: Pikapika&Shadow

Is this NY/NJ PikaPika and Shadow??

If so, then good ****

 

[da K.I.D.]

bess troll.

 

[King Omega]

For everybody who was asking "omg is _______ gonna be on youtube????111!!!," just trawl through the videos on fillip1122's twitch.tv channel. SRBT from yesterday as well as (I assume) all of Sumabato is up there, so just find the match you want --> download/record --> upload to YT yourself.

 

[Eddie G]

Link? The multiple twitch/nico.tv links have thrown me off a couple of times.

 

[C.J.]

Click the twitch link above

 

[King Omega]

Only one twitch link, which will switch between the two NND links for us when it's time.

 

[Exdeath]

M2Vinnie vs. Kakera/Maguro wasn't really destruction, but they did lose pretty badly.

They got low-mid % 4 stocked...

 

[Tesh]

M2K/Vinnie had no teamwork. Its hard as hell to kill double MK when you aren't setting up kills.

Maguro and Kakera kept getting kills with bthrow-shuttle loop and whatnot. Vinnie and M2K should do alot better in singles.

 

[Ralph Cecil]

It seemed like M2K and Vinnie could've won that first game if M2K didn't die super early due to bad DI, but the second game just fell apart lol.

 

[King Omega]

They got low-mid % 4 stocked...

Doesn't fit my definition of destroyed. You can call it whatever you want.

 

[Tesh]

I don't know how you can really get any more destroyed than that at high level play...

 

[Eddie G]

Against two of our country's best players? I'd call that destruction.

 

[Djent]

Mew2King/Vinnie losing to Kakera/Maguro isn't *that* surprising (those guys are freakin' good), but I'm surprised that Daiki's team managed to knock them out of Losers'. Please tell me that it was at least a Bo3 set - I always thought Bo1 Losers' obscured some of the great talent in the Japanese Doubles scene.

 

[Tesh]

its bo1 all the way until semi finals i think. so who knows what could have happened.

 

[Djent]

Well that's lame. Good ish to Daiki + Umeki anyway.

 

[Alphicans]

its bo1 all the way until semi finals i think. so who knows what could have happened.

It was bo3 when I saw "one before LQF"

 

[Djent]

If Top 8 losers' was Bo3 that would make me much happier.

 

[Dcold]

I think it's WB is best of 3 and LB is Bo1? I'm really not sure and haven't been paying the most attention, but that's what it seems like.

And I don't believe M2k and Vinnie have ever teamed, so they kinda were going into that as 2 people good at Singles playing doubles. And I'm not sure how good Vinnie actually is in doubles, but nonetheless they did get lit up, but not as if it were by a laughable team. Bair+Dthrow though.....@____@

 

[MasterGorf]

Oh my, that double Wario...

 

[SFA Smiley]

If you guys haven't watched their goofy matches you should they are hilarious. Duelist with a random metaknight and Ganon trios with bumpers on some crazy custom stage lol

Looks so fun.
