SBO isn't the best FG tournament. Japan doesn't even allow entry fees to be added to the prize pool. Evo is THE best fighting game tournament in the world and has been for years.
Back before fighting games blew up SBO certainly had a monopoly on the best talent though.

SBO is single elem too, it's a very vicious touny format to play in.

that is an extremely subjective question, but watch Super Turbo tonight and see if you like that.
given he prefers mk and sf4 that's probably the game he'll like. A more option select and footsy style game.

Yeah personally I know nothing about fighting games professional community other than EVO this year and a Mike Ross documentary I've seen before.

meh, I thought it wasn't very good. It is free on hulu now though even without a subscription.
Huh, Damdai going with O. Ken against Deejay. Not liking these desperation air tatsus, they're way too slow to do anything.
Yeah, O. Ken's not working for him. He's out of ideas. He might as well play Ryu instead of O.Ryu, he's in no position to do the OS and super's great in these matchups.
Damn. I don't know why he jumped so much, throw some fireballs dude. Deejay can't combo off jumpins unless they're really deep, he needed to make Afro come to him.
Also that was an extraordinarily laggy stream, borderline unwatchable.
