Final Round is this weekend, so we should know on Sunday whether anyone can take him down a notch yet. I doubt anyone we've seen on the WNF streams can do anything, because he still hasn't touched the loser bracket over there. Hopefully Dnyc doesn't get worn down by a team tourney and drop out at FR, I would've loved to see him play a straight set (though I think it actually helped him to have other matches between him & justin playing at Winter Brawl). I'm really just looking forward to seeing some players that I wouldn't expect to be on point this weekend. I think Ryry has as good a chance as anyone in the US that I know of, but I'm hoping someone random, like one of the Florida marvel players or something, shows up and is an absolute monster. I'd love to see a big classic mvc2 player like sanford, yipes, desmond, etc tear it up but I don't think many mvc2 players have really put in the work to get that good yet. Personally, I'm hoping to see people like Zucco, the brawl player that took 2nd at one of the NY tourneys spooky streamed. I think he would have even won the tourney he took 2nd in, but he got iced by a pretty large gap between winner's finals and grand finals, and I think Chris G smashed him because Chris G had been playing nonstop up through the loser bracket. So hyped for this weekend! Random matchup stuff Ive been finding: you should absolutely 100% always pushblock spidey swing from taskmaster. If you don't, his followups are not just overheads, but also crossups on certain chars (storm being one of them) if he started the spidey swing close enough to you. Obnoxious to block =( | ||

I mean if I were a betting man I'd have to put money on Wong just because I do think he has an over 50% chance to win, but he's never going to have 100% just due to stuff like the fact its BO3 with level 3 xfactor. He's smart enough to handle it, its just a matter of how many randoms he's going to run in to. Outside of that, I do think Ryry and Josh Wong and a few other east coast players should compete for other top 8 positions, along with maybe marn. Not sure how Mike Ross will do since I don't think he's even top 5 in socal, will be interesting to see how the 2nd tier of socal stacks up against all of east coast. | ||

Then he does it again, set the air trap, teleport, bnb, its pretty dirty how stupid good that is right now. That's level 3 Xfactor AND against people who aren't Justin Wong. My point is Wong mostly figured out how to play against the generic D. Phoenix play lately. | ||

Tokido could be a dark horse due to execution but does he have the marvel mindset after just a month? I'm just finding it hard to find someone who I'd say has a better than 25% chance of beating justin. I don't even think Japanese players can touch even the top American players let along Justin. Their marvel experience is just too limited IMO. | ||

Well, other than Sentinels Hard Drive I don't know of many people who can just pull out an air super with more invincibility frames than vulnerability, thats just one way to get out of that trap, but usually by the time dark phoenix is out you only have 1-2 guys left and if you have 2 meters to spend on DHC out of a hard drive assuming you have sentinel, then by all means do i, if you can pull it off then yeah i think you'd be in good shape but its very situational. | ||

Yeah I mostly agree, but I don't sleep on top Japanese players lol, especially Tokido, who CAN play every fighter, I mean the guy top 4'd like every event at SCR last year, which was like what, Super, ST, 3rd strike, HDR, T6, GG, BB, he's just got skills overall | ||

In the first game between Clockwork and Floe yesterday on WNF in losers bracket it was a close match down to last characters between dark phoenix and sentinel. Clockwork dark phoenix lvl3 xfactored, and Floe had sentinel left as well. Floe predicted Clockwork's teleport and Plasma stormed... during the super animation, phoenix was looking dead (about to eat a full super) but her jab came out the frame before plasma storm could come out and sentinel died.. everyone including floe was like WTF??!?!! the thing is, i feel like teams with dark phoenix anchor is such a crap shoot with level 3 xfactor the team is very volatile and in tournament play, it doesn't serve too well, compared to a solidly played team that can be adaptive if you are a better player than someone else, why take unnecessary risks and play coin-flip-ish... it's like in sc2, if you're obviously better than someone else, you play longer macro games as opposed to 1 base coin flip all ins | ||

Yeah there are only like 8 characters. but still better to know that is an option rather than get stuck in the trap and just lose a character you don't have to. Skrull Sentinel Magneto Spider Man Viewtiful Joe Hsien Ko (doesn't need meter) and a couple others i can't think of. EDIT: also LOL at reading your quote of me and realizing a typed THC instead of DHC. >.> something else on my mind i guess. | ||
