MLG pays for everyone's flight and hotel to the arena events (and even pays a cash award for top 4), so you and DetroitBallin should have fun in NYC. You two should settle this over a nice game of Arcana Heart. :p

I really do like KineticClash's approach, honestly. This is a fighting game tournament, not some e-sports event where a blessed player is guaranteed top player status by fiat. I don't care if you're Keev who has already won multiple majors, Johnny Donuts, or the princess of Magical Land -- you...

Or maybe people are posting these thoughts in an attempt to throw you off of AZ's real observations!!! Sick mind games going on right now. For example, I could tell you that I've been secretly been training Cassandra in SC5 and that I have a bunch of super-secret technology with her (like how...

I've been kind of out of the loop here, playing so much VF5:FS. x_x I'm driving up to Vegas Thursday morning, and I'm either driving up with a couple of anime FG players from AZ or I'm going alone.

Speaking of Evo, what are people's plans for getting to/from Vegas? I'm currently driving up Thursday morning and would be coming back Monday morning/afternoon. I also have a room booked at Caesar's, and I don't know who else is planning on going and if they already have transportation/hotel...

The other new player was Ryd; he's also a local MB/GG player. I've been playing with him a lot since he started playing SC5. H-F Blade has also been playing a fair bit of SC5, but he can't go to any of the Hazmat ranbats because he works on Saturday (standard). I have the time off of work for...

I was poking around their site and found it in a news post from last year: Why this is the case, I have no idea.

So who here is planning on going out to MLG Anaheim? I have the time off of work for it, but don't have anything booked. One other thing to note: residents of AZ are not allowed to buy player passes for MLG online; you have to do it on-site. Thankfully this is a fighting game (which never hit...

I wouldn't worry about the Capcom players; they're going to do whatever they're going to do anyway. It seems like trying to work with that community is a rather futile effort nowadays, given how much bigger they are than anyone else. I was wondering why you were using that move so little. :V

If SC5 starts at 2:30, there's no way I'm going to be able to make it -- so personally, I would much rather see a Sunday start. In regards to people having to be there both days, how many people really play both Capcom fighters and SC5/XIII? To ask the question differently, how many entrants...

I'll show up, but I won't be able to get there until about 3:30 or so since I get off of work at 3 PM. I probably won't be able to play in the tournament; hopefully can get some casuals in at least (to the point where I'll bring a setup to make that happen, if needed).

I would not have any problem with a Saturday tournament at UAT. The only issue I have is that I work until 3 PM on Saturday, so I would not be able to make it until then.

I'm not going to ManaWerx tonight, sorry guys. :\ I feel like crap and the prospect of going to work tomorrow on no sleep like this isn't too promising. SFxT is a total slop fest, it makes SC5 look hyper-tuned in comparison. Frankly, anyone who is encouraging any developer that treats its...

Alright, normally I host for another game on Saturday night but e-sports killed that game cold -- so I'm going to try to do something different. I want to host SC5 games Saturday night. I currently have two setups (one X360 and one PS3), if you want more you'll have to bring them. I can stream...

I'm freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Thanks to everyone who came out and especially to The Digital Dojo guys for streaming it and whoever was running the tournament for handling that always thankless task. I'm not sure how frequently I can make it out there -- I'm wondering if bringing another setup would...
