Arc Revolution Cup (Japan)

[Kurushii]

Japan, sorry I forgot to put that

[JG]

Japan, sorry I forgot to put that

No problem man! i supposed that. Thank a lot for your information and time spend in this = )

[Lunar_Divider]

It's depressing to see only RYO made it with Relius. Is the character himself still not recognized?

[Kurushii]

They released the stream url's for the nico streams. No need to use unless something happens to the twitch feed. Added to my previous post.

Is it free?

[Kurushii]

Is it free?

Yes

[Chrome Homura]

Single elim? For reals!?

Man, there's gonna be so much sad after the first round. It better be best of 3 games at least, too many players are gonna be heartbroken right off the bat

Also, why the hell is Dogura on the Slayer train? Clearly he isn't interested in the runback vs BLEED or DC.

I can only think of one guy I want to see win the LCQ to fight FAB, and that's Inoue. Being a JO myself, I hope the other one is a random so I don't have to feel bad about DC advancing >_>

[Digital Watches]

Aren't like, most if not all japanese tournaments of everything single-elim? It's not really a controversial thing.

[Chrome Homura]

I never considered the single elim format to be controversial, I merely dislike it personally. Seeing so many big names and knowing half of them are going to be ousted in such a short time period (this is highlighted even more so by the fact that it's a 1on1, not a 3v3 team event) just makes it hard to be a fan of the game in general.

If I were shortsighted enough to only care about the results of those who play the character I main, that'd be significantly easier to deal with... but I don't have that narrow perspective. As a direct result, the simple desire of wanting to see all the high-level competitors I enjoy watching play more than once is setting me up for a lot of disappointment. For example, wanting Hase to advance will mean hoping for Kisshi to lose first round. I have to choose between rooting for Haaken or Ruu, and between those two players, the format demands that I only get to see one of them perform in this event after the result of what is likely going to be a single 3 round match.

It just seems like it's going to be over so fast that while there are certainly going to be some hype matches, there will be an equal amount of wasted potential just because none of these players are going to get a second chance.

Like 99% of them are single-elim.

[STenSatsu]

A lot of the tournies are also teams though. I think I remember Elven mentioning a lot of jp players kind of being sad it was 1v1 for the arcfes.

[Solid Gold Wall]

pretty sure the last two to qualify for gg are karun (ja) and jima (te)

[Jourdal]

For P4U, HH Yukiko and a Kanji qualified. For BB, Tetsuwo and Ryuusei Jin

[XDest]

Tsujikawa the true Tao god.

Let's see this happen again!

[Mitsurugi]

Wake up everybody, finals are drawing near !

SPOILERS

All results up to Top 8 for GG, only Top 8 for P4A and BB, thanks SRK (^_^)b

Go N男！

[Ctrlaltwtf]

P4A Quarter Finals beginning now.

(at least I think, they're introducing all the players)

(okay I have no idea what they're doing, something is happening now though)

[Yazumatto]

I'm going to need Dogura to avenge his Sector 7 "teammate", then I'm going to need him to kick everyone in the face until they stop breathing.

Let's go Azrael, the only new character that matters.

Oh shit, Dogura is cosplaying Hazama, he's got this.

[Ctrlaltwtf]

Damn, nico just premium member'd me. Let's hope Twitch is acceptable.

[Chaoschao222]

Damn, nico just premium member'd me. Let's hope Twitch is acceptable.

Why haven't you been using Kurushii's stream since like... forever ago? It's Nico premium quality with none of the Nico premium requirement.

[Mitsurugi]

Ctrlaltwtf, I was kicked too but it is only fair since it is free !

Anyway just log again and it should be fine, at least I had no trouble at all.

P4A is really beginning right now.

[Eshi]

holy shit I hope Denpa wins this tournament. His naoto is god damn disgusting.

[abadlime]

This. Those confirms.
