ANOTHER BROKEN RECORD :D

I cannot thank you guys enough! I really want to help the community grow together, but I could not do it without your help, your participation, and your dedication to Skullgirls!

Today we will be joined by some of the most iconic members in the Skullgirls community to provide commentary, and help us Get Gr8 before Combo Breaker. See you all soon~!
 
The NA/EU signups for the week of 6/4/2016 are here, and the links are at the bottom!

As a quick reminder, we will not be streaming 5/28, since it is the weekend of Combo Breaker, the biggest Skullgirls event of the year! We will do our best to make sure we are re-streaming it!

A special thanks to 6let for coming out to join us! Also thank you N for joining us, just like old times ;) It was wonderful having you both for our stream with RECORD-BREAKING ATTENDANCE!!! :D

Once again, I want to make a quick reminder that if you register for the event, please wait in the steam group chat. It really helps us find you and make sure you're ready for the event. I'd also like to point out that if you have any requests on who/who not to be matched up with, try to let me know in the extra comments section of the Get Gr8 form, I'd like to avoid frantically changing match-ups at the beginning of the stream.

Other than that, have a great couple of weeks everyone, I can't wait to see everyone at our next event!

 
We go live at 4 PM ET, hope everyone is ready! Here are the match-ups:

Beginner:
  • Boba vs Disgusting Jaller
  • walkingpeasant1 vs Mega Mix
  • Wingdings vs OPEN LOBBY

Intermediate:
  • Frozen Triangle vs DessertJunkie
  • Façade vs OPEN LOBBY

I guess everyone is exhausted from Combo Breaker >_< Make sure to sign up for next week! Never too early or late to Get Gr8 ;)

Combo Breaker was amazing. I was able to re-stream most of it. Make sure to catch the vods of top 16 and "East Coast vs The World" on teamsp00ky twitch

Sadly, I will not be joining you guys this week. In my place we will have our wonderful friends, JP and JoshB. These guys are incredibly experienced players and they will provide impeccable advice!
 
Sorry for my awful performance this week guys. I would say I'll get better, but with Summer classes coming soon, I probably won't have much time to practice for the next few months.

Nah you did fine! And it's ok, everyone has priorities they need to take care of. Practice whenever you can, and I can't wait to see you next week if you can make it!

If you really felt like you didn't play your best, then try to warm up a bit more before the event, I usually recommend about 45 min of playing before the start of the stream.
 
The NA/EU signups for the week of 6/11/2016 are here, and the links are at the bottom!

Back to our weekly schedule. Thank you so much JP and JoshB for helping me out!

Have a great week everyone, I hope to see you all this Saturday! Feel free to invite a friend ;) I bet after watching Combo Breaker there are plenty of newcomers ready to jump in!

THE SKULLHEART FORUMS ARE BACK IN ACTION!

I sincerely apologize for the lack of updates, we were unable to properly access the forum since Friday. Let's skip straight to our weekly post:
--------------------------------------------------

The NA/EU signups for the week of 6/18/2016 are here, and the links are at the bottom!

Shout-outs to JP for being a bro, and keeping me covered as co-host last Saturday! ;)

The stream was FANTASTIC! Everyone showed up eager and ready to go! It was good to be back :D

I would like to make a quick shout-out to /u/Scrubjr, who has established a steam group called SkullgirlsNewbs for beginners to meet up and find training partners! They have also begun setting up events. If you are looking for a Skullgirls buddy to train, improve, and have a good time with, this is definitely worth taking a look at.

Also if any members from SkullgirlsNewbs would like to get advice from the SGC on what to work on next, Get Gr8 does have a beginner bracket! Don't hesitate to signup! We're a welcoming bunch :D Here is our steam group

Intermediate:
  • Randomperson vs Trainer Zerus
  • Navy Pheonix vs The Beverly Hillbilly
  • NuclearPotato vs Wingdings
  • Penyanbra vs Façade

Welcome back for yet another week! We've finally resolved all/most Skullheart issues late this week. Expect to see all our missing friends start showing up once again ;)

This week we have a special guest(s) joining us as co-host, ready to give you some of the highest quality advice you're ever going to get ;D Give him (them) a warm welcome today!
 
For trying to learn a new character plus having to get used to a new controller, things didn't go half bad for me. I hope to play next week and not randomly jump when I don't want to.

note: during the first game you might notice that I was doing j.LP from full screen, the reason for that being that I wanted to do Shot but I kept jumping cause the new analog is weird for me compared to using a regular DS3.

Oh okay, I saw that yeah and was super confused, but that makes more sense, sorry about mixing that up then.

Shout-outs to our good friends Floots and Fenster! Your help was wonderful and you kept the stream lively :D

We are always trying to tweak the stream for the best viewer and player experience. So, by popular demand, we are going to try and bring you more matches! On weeks with participation lower than 12 members, we will bump the number of games from 3 to 5!

That's not all! We're also considering changing the format for sets to be "best-of." Instead of 5 games flat, we want to adjust the sets to be first to 3 wins.

We are still trying to get a good feel for what the community would like, so we have provided a survey to vote on these changes. We really appreciate any and all feedback possible! Any and all viewers/participants, please feel free to participate and help us out! Every voice matters!

 
We go live at 4 PM ET, hope everyone is ready!

We will be playing THREE (3) flat matches this week! Here are the match-ups:

Beginner:
  • Royal vs MegaMix
  • PrincessSneq vs Zane the grizzly Bear
  • ShadowWave14 vs Alt + F4 to Taunt!
  • Casual Watson vs walkingpeasant

Intermediate:
  • IbuiKun vs Vamp
  • Trainer Zerus vs The Beverly Hillbilly
  • Glitch Hooves vs B.B. Missingno
  • Wingdings vs Adwins
  • Penumbra vs Façade
  • Sunset Radiance vs Drills

Stacked with players all across the board! You could not believe how excited I am to have Skullgirls Get Gr8 running at full force! :D

We have the results of our survey completed. The survey was 100% COMPLETELY ANONYMOUS! Thank you so much for helping us improve this event. You can see the results here. I have made an excessively elaborate response and have responded to some of the questions and concerns directly. Feel free to glance at it!

The only change is that we will have 5 flat matches on days with 12 or less participants. Of course, this does not apply this week, so today should feel completely normal :D

Once again, thank you JoshB for your cohost shenanigans! Also thank you for taking over open lobby for our wonderful audience ;D

Without further ado:

 
I was wondering, since I signed up for the NA/EU, I switched around characters. Am I allowed to resend a form, or is there anything I could do?
 
Am I allowed to resend a form

Don't worry about it. The characters you list are for very rare circumstances where an opponent says they'd prefer/avoid fighting character X. It helps with matchmaking. It generally never comes into consideration, so its not too important if you don't stick to what you list. Can't wait to see you this Saturday ;D

By the way do people watch the stream as they play?

Usually leaving the stream running causes an obscene amount of lag. I think it's best to check the archives after, or just ask about advice in stream chat post-match before the next set starts.
