Speaking of Jayce, here's the finals of the PxG Championships online tournament that Jayce stomped his way through. Worth checking out, you probably missed this one.
Edit: Here are the results of this tournament: 1. JayceTheAce (Decapre) 2. OG|Shiine (Yang) 3. Liquid|NuckleDu (Guile) 4. XSK Samurai (Evil Ryu) 5. MLSwear (Hakan) 5. BrolyLegs (Chun-Li) 7. VGP|Nashfan (Chun-Li) 7. VGP|Integra (Ken)
So yeah, he had to get through some solid players to do this. His Decapre is looking solid.

WOW the last few seconds of that match are ridiculous...

I KNOW RIGHT. Jayce has some insane Ultra 1 shenanigans going for him. Check out the PxG video too, at 8m15s he punishes a dropped ultra with... that.
For the OP, near the top, I updated the "notable entrants" list of people that are going to be attending NWM7 to include highlight videos and a short description. It might be worth checking out.
I will probably do one for all major tournaments and thus grow the list of "notable players" over time as more tourneys are played. Completely unnecessary and probably not of interest to most people, but it was fun to do and it gave me an excuse to revisit some classic games and discover some new ones.
I like it, Aylear! Although I don't know whether I would check out many of those videos if I hadn't heard of the players before, it sure is good to see which names are there.
Notable entrants list hasn't changed much. Only other players I really recognize are Clim, Gllty, KaneBlueRiver, and PewPewU (world class Smash Bros. Melee player) -- but wishing no offence these ladies and gentlemen, if KaneBlueRiver is a "notable player" then a t-shirt is French haute couture.

No veloc1raptor
I guess it's pretty far from socal though, I'm actually surprised to see so many of the normal ugc players show up.

http://www.twitch.tv/showdowngg just went live with "Churning the Butter - SC Week 8". BJ Unchained is there today. Apparently the winner gets a paid trip to Evo or something. I have no idea; I just randomly found it.

It's not then winner of this one event; they accumulate points every week. The player with highest points at end of season wins the trip.
Churning the Butter (norcal) and UGC (socal) weeklies are both amazing recurring tournaments to watch.

Aha, excellent! They weren't clarifying this on stream when I was watching, thanks for the heads up.
