EVO 2014 Thread

My guesses:

Ultra SF4 ("practice?"-Iverson)
UMvC3
KI ("$$$")
Melee
KoF13
BBCP
 
UMvC3
USF4
Injustice
KoF13
KI
BBCP

Melee is pending, waiting for Nintendo to give them the go ahead.
 
Looks like I'm just going to watch KOF this evo then.
 
but skullgirls :(
:BIN:
 
sooo

Injustice in over Tekken which was a shock.

Other that that, went exactly as expected?
 
I was sure about every game but Blazblue and Melee. Melee, I wasn't sure if Nintendo would be cool.

EVO2014 will also be hosting X-MANIA US, a SSF2 Turbo tournament. Old men are rocking a little happier tonight.
 
I honestly don't think injustice should be at EVO, :(
 
Skullgirls shouldn't be on the main stage either but it is what it is just face it homie

Sooooo.... Since sg isnt even a sidegame this year... What are sg's plans as far as evo is concerned? I'm not giving up the game just cause people think injustice and ki are actually good... But i would still like to see sg have an evo presence even if i cant be there because of familial commitments.

you can still have a side tourny its just not gonna be an official one.

1st year at evo SG still pulled in over 100 players. sadly i cant go this year else it would be my main game 3 years running.

im gonna be real interested to see the numbers for this year if its an increase on last years 170 ish players.
 
170ish with pot bonuses.

Side games are run by the community, not EVO. Last year was a rare official side tourney deal.
 
To be honest, I think I'm only gonna watch whatever highlight reel Maximilian puts up this year. Or KOF stuff.
 
Injustice

KI

Isn't KI sort of the obvious choice? I don't see what's wrong with it making it?

If people are behaving like this, why do we respond to people who do this to Skullgirls?

EDIT:
It is Injustice that I find questionable, I wasn't there so I can't really judge, but did it go down exceptionally well last year or something? It seems odd to me that Injustice is in and Tekken isn't, though.

injustice's Evo final can be summed up as "eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers eye lasers"

so yeah, it actually wasnt that great.

Well, it's getting a new developer after Double Helix got bought by Amazon. What's stopping them from putting out a major patch during EVO?

? Couldn't this happen to any game ever? Like, I dunno, Blazblue haha
 
I really hope you aren't hoping blazblue loses its devs, because that'd be a mean thing to say.

Blazblue is a good game (Mike can hate me all he wants on this) and there was just a thread talking about not trying to shot ill will to other fighters, cuz it makes the SG fanbase look like assholes.

I mean it has had problems with updates coming out at incorrect times, nothing to do with changing developers.

I think you totally misinterpreted me, I like Blazblue and I actually play it, in fact I was replying to someone just above for the exact same purpose you did.
 
The Injustice hate is strong here. The game still gets good turnouts at tourneys so that's why it returned. Continue to rock dem red lantern rings.

I think it sucks there is no 3D game at this year's Evo. Could have at least given DoA5U a spot

Evo hates non-traditional and non-2D also confirmed.
 
I will be attending EVO this year for KI Injustice and Blazblue =D

Injustice at Evo is the only time I can recall the crowd booing during the trophy ceremony. I don't think that even happened during SFxT.
