#ProTourSurvey
Thread 🧵
The point of this thread is to get the thoughts of players and spectators about the various pro tours throughout the year and see what was good and bad about each in an effort to improve all of them.
Check below for questions:
Context: Apparently an activist group that I'm not going to name interrupted a Winners Finals Match to promote the UK government to stop licensing oil, gas and coal projects.
What that has to do with fighting games or why choose to do it a gaming event I have no freaking idea.
I just realized something as I was getting water.
In a year where Guilty Gear Strive brings the FGC together, where Melty Blood is making a comeback, Virtual Fighter is bought back to the mainstream...Demon Slayer is about to win Best Fighting Game at the Game Awards, isn't it?
Fun Fact:
@Kizzie_Kay
made Top 8 in 4 different fighting games.
- Guilty Gear Strive
- Guilty Gear Xrd: Rev 2
- Granblue Fantasy Versus
- Blazblue Central Fiction
Plus made 17th in +R. What a god.
Skullgirls 2nd Encore is featured in the EVO Community Showcase with a 5K pot bonus from the developers.
The game is still going strong and don't let people like THIS tell you otherwise.
Interesting I've noticed the absence of a Certain fighting game that decided to go full self sabotage recently, but they told me
numbers where doing good ,what happened?
I was planning my schedule for EVO and realized that the special announcement isn't there anymore and was replaced by Nick All Stars 2.
Cool for the team but I'll bet you so much money that most people won't know this and will be disappointed.
My biggest fear is the fgc will keep trying to find "the game" to fit all their needs.
People said DBFZ but netcode and mechanics
People said GBVS but netcode and pandemic
People said Strive but simplification and polarizing top tiers
Now people are looking at Melty next.
To the people posting on the tweets about DNF Duel being free for the day and saying its too still asking for too much and that you aren't buying it...
Is it too much to ask just not to say anything? Idk what is up with this community and taking shots at games they dont care for
Idk what I hate more
That the FGC didn't want to ban Infiltration due to domestic violence years ago
Or that they want to ban him now cause of bracket fixing and having a ego.
I also only mentioned this a bit, but this was the first time my dad came to watch me play in a tournament and play in my pools.
Glad I was able to spend this weekend with him and show my performance and to see how proud he was to see my growth as a player.
#CEO2022
If anybody can please promote the BBTAG Tournament at CEO. I am trying my best to make it huge and so far it has been amazing, but I want to make sure EVERYBODY knows whats going down. So please spread the link to the tourney.
I'm going to bed, but before I do I wanna tell a quick story.
@shokoodaiquiri
has been a community leader for GBVS and has been running
@GBVS_Events
to get events and results for anything GBVS related.
This is how she reacted to the Rising news.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think for all the major tournaments in the past 7 days (both online and offline) we
A. Never had a repeat winner
B. Always had a different character winning
Really shows how you can play pretty much anybody and put your mind into it.
@ihopihopihop
Just simply to
A. Not give them any attention (which is what they want)
B. Not have defenders and/or the org themselves come onto my profile.
If you really want to know who they are, its on their shirt and heck the video I pulled at the last 2 seconds have their website.
I really feel for the Mane6 team. They had their chance to shine and really show what Them's Fightin' Herds to a larger audience outside the FGC and imo was about to show why it isn't just the "pony fighter". Please so them your support, that's all I ask.
I get why ppl are upset at this but try to see the other side too
These registrations can be full in a matter of hours (in Japan, minutes). It's unreasonable to expect top players to always be ready for it "cause its their job" especially when different timezones come into play
How the conversion actually goes...every time
Special thanks to
@KassandraNova
for her amazing Lois and for lending her voice for this skit.
@CrazyD0gma
I hope you enjoy. :)
Under Night In-Birth II Sys:Celes New Character Art Thread:
Below are the new character portraits for all 24 Characters in UNI2 as well as an easy drive folder with all the assets for easy access:
Hyde
Linne
Waldstein
Carmine
Since this blew up, please keep in mind that the goal of this whole thing is to get attention, I did this so people are more informed about what happened.
Please don't give them the time of day as this is exactly what they want.
This was not a one man mission, this was a entire scene, a entire community that did not stop playing.

Happy Birthday to one of the hardest working TOs I know. I only talked to him a few times, but he is honestly dedicated to all the scenes he supports and a genuinely nice guy.

Final Results at
#CEOFGC
Granblue Fantasy Versus - Tied for 13th
Melty Blood Type Lumina - Tied for 17th
Persona 4 Arena Ultimax - 3rd Place
Idol Showdown - 3rd Place
Couldn't close out any brackets but I had a good cheerleader watching almost every match. Thanks mom.
Rampage Time: When the match is at its final 80 seconds, rampage time begins. During the rest of the match the skill gauge will increase automatically for both players. Don't hold anything back!
This freaking terrifies me to no end. Let's see how this goes during the demo.
@acekingoffsuit
People who say they would play xyz game if it had rollback wouldn't play xyz game anyway.
Bonus: Dead of Alive 6 should have gotten a chance in 2019 but Core Values
Second, THERE WILL BE A STREAM FOR THE TOURNAMENTS (Don't know where however)! To my knowledge only Top 4 for BBCF will be streamed sadly, but the hope is since BBTAG is a huge deal it will get Top 8. The pot bonuses have added to make sure everybody gets paid in a timely manner.
The way we were all hyped when the teaser dropped, completely doomsday scenario’s the gameplay reveal, and are now back to being hype after the combat is too much for me to handle LOL
@SRPHgg
You can't be serious about hearing one of your players talking about the process of raping someone and say that there was no harm in the messages. Yes, online harassment and toxicity exist everywhere online, but people who turn a blind eye to it (like you are) makes it worst.
*Sigh* So Rhyolite was my first match in ESL this week and they were late by 12 mins so I submitted a support ticket. No matter if the match is placed you still gotta check in or you will get DQed.
I tried to explain that and this is the result.
I usually don't post about this kind of thing, but I figured since it's a big milestone I might as well.
Been on this earth for 25 years now and am happy to be here. Thank you all.
One final thing for the night: Here is a comparison between CF and TAG for the final combo in the video for the introduction of Naoto Kurogane. Shoutouts to Naoto Execution Master
@Edgedark_
for the CF footage.
Here is the breakdown of each character per appearance in Top 8.
Note: This is per character per player so if one player uses 2 teams with the same character I only counted 1.
(This is only top 8 so it should not be used to represent the current meta and stance of the game)
All in gonna say is at the end of the beta there will be a feedback form
Don't use Twitter
Don't use X
Don't use twitch or YouTube
Use that and express why you disagree with this, that will do much more than just malding on Twitter.
I got the promotion at my job and get to work from home.
I went 3-2 in the 10v10 exhibition in GBVS today.
And I just did the biggest email I probably have done for the FGC and sent it.
Let's see if I can go 3/3 for Ws
In this thread, I will show the loading times and speed between the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 for a few of the Anime Fighting Games I own.
Both footage on PS4/PS5 are recordedat 1080p 60fps
I did not add a timer as there is human error that could factor into times.
I can not stop singing Rowlet's praises tonight. First time ever TOing and had to run the biggest BYOC tournament this weekend with over 64+ players and we made it all the way to Top 4 in the 6 hours and setups we were given.
GBVS Community is so freaking blessed to have her.
my feet hurt
i was stressed running virtually all of GBVS BYOC pools by myself while having to deal w/ the fact that 21/32 of Top 32 Rising was conflicting with the BYOC bracket for the entire day
but it was fun and Im glad I did pretty well despite it being my first time TOing
Competitor Bloo is done for the weekend
Final Results
Melty Blood: Made it out of pools
Granblue: 1-2
Phantom Breaker Omnia: 1st
Dengeki: 9th
Kill La Kill: 5th
Maybe... Just maybe... I'm good at fighting games.
How to tell when it's your birthday:
❌ - Remembering the date
❌ - People start wishing you Happy Birthday
✅ - Dad calls you at 4am to play a Happy Birthday song you heard over the past decade.
Btw the CEO of Cygames USA is Motohiro Okubo
If you heard of that name he was one of the producers for Soul Calibur 6 and Tekken 7 and did the infamous "Do your souls still burn" reveal for SC6.
Cygames has announced the establishment of two new overseas branches, Cygames America and Cygames Europe, to promote and market titles in North America and Europe.
Wow! This blew up, if you are someone who is disappointed it isn't like UNI2 or whatever, let's wait till the weekend is over cause this is just one announcement.
If you are trying to be mean about NASB2 then stop. Check out the game outside it's just being a platform fighter.
God bless Riku Ozawa.
Man has been up since 5am at the ASW JP office to watch Strive top 8 and just now drawing during the downtime and talking to chat (most of which is in English).
I don't suggest a lot of videos, but this video just came out and I think is a worth a listen.
@InfernoOmni
made a video about the buff, nerf, ban mentality in the smash community, but it is easily transferable to other fighting games.
I will say this before and I will say it again. I am volunteering to work at Final Round 2020 and most likely will be helping out handle BBTAG and/or GBVS. I will do everything within my power to make sure the tournament runs smoothly, you have my word on that.
Due to one of the players in MBTL West not being able to attend the offline Grand Finals, I will be teaming up with MBTL Official Tournament: United States to find one final qualifier!
The 9th place finishers will be playing a Round Robin Tournament where winner takes the spot!
Cross Raid - After the final step hit of Smart Combo 1, your remaining cross gauge will be consumed. When activated you will be replaced by your teammate, and you will be in a power-up state after the change.
This must be the attack incoming we saw in the trailer.
I'm with a lot of the Blazblue players today. Play what you like and don't shit on games you don't. Nothing ever comes out of saying a game sucks or being mad about something not be talked about. Fighting Games are never dead until you tell yourself they are. Keep Fighting.
Ruby has won every Evo with a different partner each time
2018 - Gordeau (Under Night)
2019 - Yang (RWBY)
2020 - Adachi (Persona 4)
In 2021 which BB character is about to win with Ruby?
