Man you should of seen the Marvel vs Capcom 2 scene during East Coast tournaments. People were getting stabbed/shot over the game. Josh Wigfall, Empire Arcadia, Sanford Kelly, brings me back good memories. The commentary use to be so hilarious.
The first actual Evo 2k2 was my favorite.
I swear Marvel vs Capcom 2 was the most ghetto fighting game ever in the Evo scene.
I like how Mike Chaos was the one winning the MM in the end.

Eita is far from the best in Japan, most people would put Tokido above Eita thoguh imo, Akuma suffers a similar problem Ryu in that both their playstyles are extremely established and that you won't expect as much unpredictability out of them unless they just play completely different. (i.e. Jyobin, who I wish went just to see how people react to his crazy Ryu lol)
So Eita winning Shadowloo Showdown, Topanga B league and NSB, how can he be "far from the best"? I doubt you have seen much of him because then you wouldn't be writing that. He has beaten every Japanese player there is, what more do you want? You could say that he should play less different games, it's not for everyone. Lately, for example, he has been practicing SCV which isn't going to help him in other games.
It's called B League for a reason. Winning B League puts you into the A League anyway, so he's not the best. And I've seen VODs of him playing long sets with people like Sasaki, Uryo, Mago, etc. so don't say I haven't seen him play at all. He didn't really fare that well against Mago or Uryo, (Eita was literally screaming his head off b/c he lost to Uryo b/c he mounted comebacks from half health) who are considered close to the top. Shadowloo pretty much featured the majority of the B League but I honestly thought the BBN Eita match could have gone either way, not to diminish winning of course since that field was pretty stacked anyway. I'd rather put my money on Sako, Haitani, Daigo, Fuudo, etc. Having Eita as a favorite to win is kinda eh imo, unless you're really considering winning B League and Shadowloo as momentum boosters I guess. Either way, long road ahead of him.
EDIT: Heh, what do you know, Eita's already out. My post is therefore pointless lol.
B league doesn't mean anything. Dashio owned(OCV) several "A league" players in 5v5 team play. -6, Banbaban, Sasaki, Dogura, Michael-tan, YHC-Mochi, do you consider those far from the top? Or Eita beating Tokido in SS, Daigo and others in the 5v5 games. I wouldn't say he is the favorite but he should definitely have had a good chance to make top 8. I have no idea what went wrong. Also, I said "I doubt you have seen much of him" which still seems to be true.

That's cool, he's already been exposed as a fraud this year. Let's talk about players that matter.

Dude, why so hostile? Do I really have to post Youtube links of all the matches I've seen him play? My Internet History of how many times I've watched Nagoya Street Battle? The only reason he's getting attention now and his name is getting out there is BECAUSE he won Shadowloo and the B League. He's just doesn't travel that often, probably because he can't, and I won't go out of my way just to find every arcade match he plays. Poongko arose in a similar fashion of course (footage of him beating top Japanese players, winning Shadowloo Showdown 2K11), but with a character that at the time was not common so that is why that got so much more attention.
But still, he's funny when he's commentating and when he's raging. One of the most memorable ones, he was literally screaming in Japanese "What in the hell!?" multiple times facing Uryo. He went like 2-16 in like a 50 min. session with Uryo and Sasaki, against Uryo but was pretty much even against Sasaki. (And yes I am a fan of Uryo, because his play made me pick up Sakura for the first time since Alpha 2) There's no way you can prove that I haven't seen him play anyway, unless you want me to explain all the Akuma tech he has, which is already OD lol.
I am not saying he's just an average player obviously, but not even making it out of pools in EVO is not helping his case. Props to Afrocole though, Ultra 2 reads are godlike. XD Just enjoy I say lol
[AG] MarlinPie the glitch seems to rely on a dead character slot and tagging to the dead character as you cancel the tag in with some outrageous method.
