Even if he looses here, Poongko is such a clutch player, everytime coming from behind.

I'd put Chris G above any of the "others" you named. Fanatiq is dangerous and has won a major. Flocker is frightening and just missed making grand finals at CEO. Chou from Japan is a threat to finish high. Dieminion has also placed highly of late, though the pack seems to have caught up to him.Somehow I forgot to mention Yipes, too. Yipes is a monster.

Hm I think outside of the US yes. I play SF4 for example, but there is like no offline/arcade scene, so it is kind of hard to get in. But the spectator are called stream monsters for a reason.

For UMVC3 probably filipino champ, or even justin wong. Other top players are people like combofiend, yipes, noel brown, pr balrog, marlinpie, some of these moreso than others.


I'd put Chris G above any of the "others" you named. Fanatiq is dangerous and has won a major. Flocker is frightening and just missed making grand finals at CEO. Chou from Japan is a threat to finish high. Dieminion has also placed highly of late, though the pack seems to have caught up to him.


FChamp and Chris G are roughly tied. Chris G abused MorriDoom for a long time until FChamp found the ultimate counter team. Even now most people don't really know how to properly deal with Soul Fist spam + Hidden Missiles.

Fanatiq is dangerous but extremely inconsistent. Best Storm imo.

Don't see Chou making it to the finals.

Dieminion? Dunno, haven't seen too much from him.

Yeah for sure, I actually edited and added fanatiq right afterwards. It sort of seems like this evo could be played out 10 times, and have 10 likely canidates to win it. So many killers here. No one is safe.

in the fgc, more people definitely play and watch, unlike starcraft. you are definitely in the minority if you dont play and only watch. for EVO, there are a ton of people watching, but many of them are participating in pools or have been eliminated already.

favorites for UMVC3 is hard to judge because of the random factor in the game, but Justin Wong, Filipino Champ, Fanatiq, Chris G are some of the names to watch out for. SSF4 AE top 8 will be the main event on Sunday and most people would probably pick Daigo at this point, but all of the other guys have a chance still imo.

Definitely the same here.

There aren't any arcades here and I don't own any of the newer consoles, so it's no big surprise. I also doubt there are people in my region who still play MotW, RB2 or The Last Blade 2.

Chris Free is a choker. He ain't gonna make it past top 16 lol.

And on that topic, tt was funny watching Mago bodied Noah yesterday. Last year, Chris G was in the same position in Marvel. In an interview after that game he was like "QQ crowd was so hard on me blah blah blah." Mago yesterday was like "You mad brah" to the crowd.

also, unlike starcraft, the players actually seek out casual matches, money matches, side tournaments, etc. besides the normal tournament. good luck seeing starcraft pros playing for fun after the event is over or they have been eliminated.

He may be a choker but can he hold all those majors that he won?
