East Coast Throwdown

East Coast Throwdown is a fairly long-running event held every year in New Jersey. It's a sizable tournament that usually features some excellent talent from across the US. Last year it was part of the Capcom Pro Tour, and offered seeding points to players of Ultra Street Fighter IV. Unfortunately, they did a bracket float to prevent Justin Wong and Ricki Ortiz from playing in the second round, and as a result they were penalized by Capcom.

This year they are not part of the Capcom Pro Tour, and they are headlining Mortal Kombat X instead of USF4, but the talent pool is still strong for USF4. There should be some fun games throughout the weekend.

This event starts Saturday the 13th of June, 2015, at 18:00 EDT, and concludes the following Sunday.


Notable entrants:

• Justin Wong, like you even need to ask
  
• K-Brad, a Cammy player who was dominant in AE2012 and still arguably the best Cammy in the world
  
• Ricky Ortiz, the most exciting Rufus player picked up Rolento recently, and it is great to watch
  
• Filipino Champ, self-proclaimed bad boy and the best Dhalsim loyalist in the USA (if not the world)
  
• Zeus, a fantastic Vega player
  
• Smug, best Dudley in the world and the main reason Dudley has so many players now
  
• Rico Suave, responsible for a huge influx of Abel players
  

Semi-notables:
      DaFeetLee (he would be a "notable" if I could find a single good highlight of him on YouTube zzz)

      PIE PoeM
