Didn't he beat people who have been playing the latest version at the time for a while even though he didn't play since SDE?

i was actually referring to SCR when he basically didn't show up to any of his pools, including sg. idk it seems like a waste of money for him to enter sg. he can do well but i'd be willing to believe socal could make sure he doesn't make top 3
 
I will try to.make it. Don't know if I should go into the tournament. Prob just spectate this one.

To be fair, apparently he couldn't make it due to the really bad weather on the day. He was also DQ'd from SFIV and UMvC3, as I recall.

Also, stolen from the FB page:

Oh and also, any news when the SG tournament starts? They never specified on the event page.
 
Not yet, I don't think. I'll update the OP once they put up a time.

Also why not enter? Can't get good if you don't play. ;D

@Negus Eyoel - No idea if he'll actually enter. But he's supposed to be at the venue, so I don't see why he wouldn't.

@Vadsamoht - Pretty sure in at least one of those tournaments he got put back into a different pool after getting DQ'd. Hooray for special treatment! :D
 
well another reason is because I might not go due to boxing plus i have school so if I go on Wednesday I'm going to have to skip on salty on Friday. But I'll defiantly watch the stream. I'll spam the chat with "words of encouragement" so to speak. ( laughs evilly)

@render Also probably worth clarifying ahead of time: I assume this will be run on the latest retail build, not beta?
 
@UGCgamer - hell yeah, thanks for the updated info.

@Vadsamoht - It'll be run on the retail build on PS3, yes. Big Band will definitely be out by then, barring some catastrophic event. There will likely be a PS3 setup or two running the latest beta build for casuals once the SG tournament has concluded.
 
If Chris G does enter... That'll mean that this will be his first time playing SG (at least in tournament), since like... EVO 2012? lol

I saw him on stream a few months ago playing in a non-major tournament. IIRC Squigly was in the build (PS3, but beta), so it certainly wasn't that long ago.
 
Since Big Band will be out, we can play this on console!! :D
 
Four peeee eeeeeem So I'll leave at like.. noon o.o. Curse you LA.
 
Justin Wong has confirmed entry to Skullgirls for this Saturday's "Tournament of Champions"!!! Anyone salty enough to enter? And don't forget, 1st place winner becomes a superhero on our wall of champions!

inb4 Justin not practicing at all and still just picks Val/Pillar and plays Vanilla.

Its pretty tight to see him enter though.

I got $20 on this prediction.

Hopefully someone destroys him with Big Band and he falls in love with the game.
 
Ya Justin didn't play against BrandX at LVL UP a couple months ago. Hopefully he will stick around this time. Always cool having big names from other games come to SG.

I won't be able to make it so someone please text me live updates. :)
 
Come on guys! Make us proud! DESTROY ALL INVADERS!!! o/
 
Justin is entering?

Man, now I really wish I could go to this thing.

Fingers crossed for having the day off that day.

Didn't Chris G win every tournament on the EC? Hmmmm, that's interesting

Back when he tried yes when the game first came out yes.

He got 3rd at Civil War and got bopped by me and Winnie and was out in like round 3 at ECT.

He won Civil War 2 years ago and NY locals.

If either of them make top 3 i'll be pretty disappointed in yall.

I thought he lost to you and Zidiane at ECT? I distinctly remember he beat Zid game 1, then Zid switched to Peacock/Bella and won 2 straight, partially because Chris didn't know Dynamo xx Lenny was plus on block.
