[TheCrimsonBlur]

Let's see this lineup already.

Teams crews lineups will be out by tonight. Scar and Mango just arrived from Sweden and the crews wanted their input before finalizing a strategy.

 

[CyberZixx]

How will stream time be decided? Will each pool get stream time? Will Ken be favored and get a lot of stream time?

 

[Ether]

Teams crews lineups are officially set!

Team SOCAL:

Sung666 / Stabbedbyanipple *lead*
Fly Amanita / MacD
Westballz / Baka4moe
S2J / Alex19
Ken / Mango

Team NORCAL:

Darrell / Toph *lead*
Shroomed / Hyuga
Scar / L
BlueFoxXT / Bizzarro Flame
GC | SFAT / PewpewU

[The format is just like singles crews. Each team picks a lead, they stage strike, and the winning team keeps their remaining stocks into the next match. The losing crew counterpicks a team, and the winning team bans a stage. This goes until one team has 0 stocks --- the only rule thats different than singles is players can steal stocks before 3-2-1 go if they are at 0 going into the next match. So, for example, if Pewfat win a match with PewPewU at 2 and SFAT 0, SFAT can steal a stock before the match]

Now that we're only a day before the event, its time for some final reminders:

• BRING A SETUP. Last time, we were carried by MikeHaze's ~8 setups. This time we won't have that luxury. So we need everyone to step up. The entire tournament depends on this.
• COME ON TIME (10:30-11). Line outside begins at 10:30, and venue opens at 11. Theres a check-in process, so we need everyone in at that time; please don't wait until noon. Account for traffic, its Socal. No johns.
• BRING AN ID. The tournament is in a bar. An ID is mandatory.

Okay sweet , thanks man : )

 

[WestBallz]

Ken/Mango in the teams crew battle is gonna be AMAZING!!

No need to thank me....I always want to put a show on for the fans. Yo boi was captain and wanted to make it as hype as possible.

25$??? Really id def would love to buy it if i had the money. Man such a sweet deal someone should pick that up fast!!!! Rofl

 

[!Peligro!]

I apparently win the KoC pools lottery. Last time I got Link, DK, G&W, and Puff. This time I get two other Peaches and Puff.

Also I vote that I replace Wes in doubles crews because double Peach too good.

 

[SUNG666]

BRING TVS AND SETUPS! I cannot stress this enough

 

[Osennecho]

#Inbefore Rigs bracket and tournament so Ken wins and has $/no excuse to not go to EVO.

 

[Rickety]

Oh, goodness!

Predictions:

Pool 15
1. Fly Amanita (IR) - You're my kokujin. You got this.
2. Rickety (SD) - Rickety, I wanna put Jackpot over you, but love you too much to do that.
3. Jackpot (S) - Ding ding ding ding ding ding. I wanna see Jackpot bring down Rickety and Joejoe.
4. Joejoe (SB) - Haha, no love for someone I haven't played yet!! (even though I know you're good :x)

Gulp! Okami, you really are giving me too much credit!
I can say with great confidence that I will certainly not be the second seed in my pool!
In fact, I'm very sure that that I won't be winning any matches at all, let alone actually making it out!
Fly is much too good at this game (he beat me way back in 2007, so I certainly wouldn't have a chance against him now!), and JoeJoe's star only continues to rise! I have no doubt that he will soon take his place as one of the West Coast's premiere Sheik players! I'm not sure who Jackpot is (is he from Arizona?), but I know that anyone who has Okami's blessing will certainly prove to be a formidable opponent, and should not be underestimated! <3

Matches i'm looking forward to in some pools:
15: JoeJoe vs Rickety

Eep! Aw, thank you for the thought, SacaSuMoto, but I'm just sure that this match will be pretty lopsided and boring to watch! The only thing that I could ever hope to beat JoeJoe in would probably be a pie-eating contest or something! Unless he decides to go easy one me! Fingers crossed! <3

rickety's winning this! he's the best player in the world

Aw, you are much too sweet, Strong Bad! Thank you for the vote of confidence, but I'm afraid that I'll only be letting you down! If I can take at least two stocks off of someone in my pool, I'll be one proud boy! Either way, though, I can promise you that I will have lots of fun at this tournament, no matter how badly I get beat! I just wish that you could have made it over! It was such a pleasure getting to meet you at the last one! <3


---


Ugh, I can't wait for the tournament! There are so many people that I'm looking forward to seeing tomorrow that I'm actually finding it hard to fall asleep! Thank you, Smash Community, for being so wonderful and welcoming! <3

 

[commonyoshi]

Lol, Rickety, you're definitely making it out of round 1 pools. Either 2nd or 3rd seed between you and joejoe.

Haven't played you two in too long.
