No characters cause I can't even remember who I played last week (but truth's oboro was mad hype this week!)

[BunniesFromHell]

I'm updating the standings post earlier in the thread to reflect the results in crimefighter's post above, which was the last tournament for LCL this season! I need to ask two questions now:

 

What games will we be running next season?

Keep in mind that the format will probably change so that we aren't running too many tournaments in a single day as UNIEL random 2v2s make their return. Game X at IGL and Game Y at GGA one week, then switched the next, until the end of the season.

Chaos Code isn't going anywhere because I think everyone's liked it enough to keep it around, and with an update we're looking forward to on the horizon (at least sort of), it doesn't make sense to halt its momentum.

However, taking Aquapazza's current place, we're considering a few other games. DFC makes the most sense to me, as it didn't really get much tourney attention at release, even though it sounds like we all enjoy playing it. The real question is if we want to run DFC (a real game that isn't as visible), or some jank bullshit. Suggestions are welcome for any other games!

(Also I'm definitely figuring out a better points system next time, this one doesn't work so well.)

 

Is everyone who qualified ok with holding the finals of this season at GGA?

There are a few major benefits of GGA over IGL, most importantly stream time and being on a Friday (I assume people are generally more free on a Friday night than on a Monday night). If enough players would rather hold the finals at IGL then we'll do that instead! Ideally everyone who qualified is able to make it out.

 

The players who qualified for the finals bracket are the top 4 plus anyone who tied for 4th in their divisions, as follows. Any overlap in IGL/GGA was sorted by having IGL results take priority and ignoring those players as GGA's qualifiers (as IGL is the smaller division and most of its top players are at the top of GGA's rankings anyway). Maybe I'm wrong but I figure it's better to let more people into the finals bracket than to trim people out arbitrarily. I can explain more if people wanna call bullshit on the qualifiers, but frankly the points didn't quite work out like I'd imagined at the start, and I'm improvising.

 

Chaos Code:

From IGL: BFH; Crimefighter; MightyMar; JVO; Thores; Duckator

From GGA: RM Truth; Wilfooooooooooo; Fabama; Frankentank; Malice

 

Aquapazza:

From IGL: BFH; Grant; Crimefighter; ElvenShadow; Xerocool

From GGA: RM Truth; Sima; Wilfoooooooo; Fabama

[SimaMatty]

I'd prefer GGA.  I doubt I could make it out to IGL if it's Monday nights, but if that's where the majority wants I'll try to find time.  I'm more concerned about when it will happen.  Sometime this month?

 

I probably shouldn't have a say on the game since I hardly attend these events.  But I think DFC is fine; I'd also go if there was GGXX+R or Battlefantasia.

[BunniesFromHell]

 I'm more concerned about when it will happen.  Sometime this month?

 

Yeah, I wanted it to be roughly the week after the Ignite ranbats finished (this last Monday) but probably sometime in the next 2-3 weeks depending on how long it takes me to reach everyone and ask what's up. If a particular day is good for you, do let me know.

[BunniesFromHell]

Finals is going to be one week from today at GGA, if you qualified and are at GGA on 4/24 you can enter the bracket. If people can't make it, sorry, I did what I could. There will be MYSTERY POT BONUSES for top 3 (below me since I'm throwing them in). The list of qualifiers again for convenience is:

 

Chaos Code:

From IGL: BFH; Crimefighter; MightyMar; JVO; Thores; Duckator

From GGA: RM Truth; Wilfooooooooooo; Fabama; Frankentank; Malice

 

Aquapazza:

From IGL: BFH; Grant; Crimefighter; ElvenShadow; Xerocool

From GGA: RM Truth; Sima; Wilfoooooooo; Fabama

[wiredgod]

So there's Xrd every week now and a CC/AP tournament?  Unless something unexpected happens, I expect I'll be at GGA friday.

 

Edit: Ergh, thought today was Thursday and not Friday.  Might not be able to make it out.

Until Evo, so people can focus on their main games, Link Card League is taking some time off. Featuring Chaos Code and another as-of-yet-undecided game, LCL will return after Evo. But there's no reason why we shouldn't have some fun AND try to solve the "what other game do we run" question in the meantime, right?

 

Officially unaffiliated with LCL, I'd like to present a new series for the next two months; Road to PovertEVO!

 

Week of June 1: Spaera (http://www.blazingorb.com/about-the-game/)

Week of June 8: Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure (Capcom)

Week of June 15: Ougon Musou Kyoku Cross

Week of June 21: Jackie Chan in Fists of Fire

Week of June 29: Samurai Shodown 5 Special

Week of July 6: Gundam Wing Endless Duel/Asuka 120% Burning Fest EXCELLENT (Either or both; we're not sure yet)

Week of July 13: Trap Gunner

 

In the spirit of LCL, these are (mostly) legit games that don't have a good space for matches currently, but even so we hope and expect you'll play them seriously; we may run weeklies for one of these games after Evo if there's interest, after all. We're announcing the game list ahead of time so people can practice, and we chose the games making sure that if you want to practice, you can easily obtain the game to do so. Entries will be free and I encourage people to enter for fun as well.

[BunniesFromHell]

whoops I should probably put down a few

GAME SPECIFIC RULES:

 

Jojo: Petshop is banned. duh. Every other normally selectable character is legal.

 

Trap Gunner: J.Bishous is softbanned. If you want to suffer playing that matchup then be my guest, but you don't have to. Bosses are legal and Dyn is "fair Bishous" if you wanted to play that character.

Also, first stage is random select and loser can counterpick stage. EX stages are banned, except for Sky Garden which can be selected only as a counterpick.

[BunniesFromHell]

Small change of plans, we'll be running Spaera as the "Tetris" game because it's cool and I solved the technical issue that could have prevented running it in like two seconds. It's free and you can download it at the developer's site here if you want to see what it's about before the tournament: http://www.blazingorb.com/about-the-game/

I sadly don't play any of these games.  What would interest be in a UNIEL side tournament?

UNIEL is one of the main games, it's just unfortunately not part of the graphic.

 

Also GG's to those that came out to Ignite tonight. I got absolutely scraped by Nives LOL.
