haha reminds me of the old days back when huge money matches were so common in competitive gaming community. It made the drama so enriching. It made being competitive so fun because it was YOUR money on the line... not sponsors. If you lost... you were SOL and your money/friends' money that backed you up was gone to your opponent.

I remember people having grudges in Marvel vs Capcom 2. People would bet $3,000 on money matches.

($3,000 Marvel vs Capcom 2 Money match Teaser Trailer)



Imagine the intensity of knowing that if you lost... you were $3,000 in the hole or taking bragging rights and $3,000 from your opponent. I understand Starcraft 2 is a lot more friendly competitive game, but man sometimes I miss how MvC2 was so rich in drama. That game was so serious and everyone had grudge matches with money on the line.

It'd be nice if Stephano and Naniwa actually put their own money on the line and had a grudge match. I want to light that fire that I remember from my old Marvel gaming days.

I don't know why money matches don't happen more often. It's basically ingrained in the fighting game community that money matches are a part of the game. There was a $50k MvC2 money match and with the amount of prize money in SC2 right now I would expect there to be more of this kind of thing.



Money matches is why Capcom decided to make MvC3 because they saw how important MvC2 was in the gaming community due to money matches, drama, epic storylines, and etc.

If you win, I'll make you the present of 5000$. If I win, you'll give the 5000$ to me as present! easy.

I think NaNiWa has a good shot if this goes down. Stephano's a monster, but think of all the ridiculous experience NaNi's getting in Korea.

This would be sweet by the way... if we could somehow bet our own money to take some part in the prize pool. Say, we all bet on who wins, and then the sum of the losers is divided among the winners and some percent goes directly to the winning player himself too.

If enough people bet, there could be like significant amount of additional money for the winning player.

P.S. I don't think this is going to be close at all. I think both of them are crazy good, razor-sharp and capable of Anything, so this is going to be one damn exciting showmatch. I can't think of a better 1-on-1 to watch at the moment. And I think both of them realize they could lose, and that would make them even more serious about it.

I'd favor naniwa.

I know stephano is hot and wins so much shit, but imagine if NaNiWa competed in a lot of these lesser tournaments, I think he could have similar success.


anyway, would be so much fun regardless, 2 of my favorite players.

It would be a brilliant showmatch, given that both players would prepare a lot for it. In such circumstances, it's impossible to predict a winner, but the series could be as epic as the TSL finals.

FINALLY.

I was always talkin about this and always wondering with friends who would win between this two beast.
Favoring naniwa all the way, he will do this easy.

But would still be great games.

This will be a balanced match. Though I think Stephano has the edge.
