Blazblue on the right. Blazblue on the right. Marvel! Games everywhere. We got Street Fighter, Street Fighter, MK... We got everything over here. This is Montreal- Canada's top for fighting games, the best city for fighting games in Canada. Get hype.
Part 1: Brice
Nini Heart: Uh oh, this is Montreal's ex-champ! Montreal's ex-champ who doesn't speak English!
Brice: Fuck you.
Nini Heart: So we're gonna perform this in French. (In French) "Hi who are you?"
Brice: "My name is Brice"
Nini Heart: "You're called Brice?"
Brice: "Yeah."
Nini Heart: "Where do you come from?"
Brice: "Why are you turning the camera? I'm from Montreal!"
Nini Heart: "No, you're French. What you say?"
Brice: ...
Nini Heart: So how do you feel about your scene?
Brice: Uh, it's the best scene ever.
Nini Heart: Why?
Brice: Uh, because we're awesome.
Airmaster: No.
Nini Heart: Airmaster, get out of here.
Brice: And like we can all speak two languages (french and english).
Nini Heart: Yeah. Okay, that's kind of cool.
Brice: So like everybody understands everybody.
Nini Heart: How strong do you feel your scene is as a whole?
Brice: I think our scene is really good because we meet often.
Nini Heart: Yup.
Brice: But uhhh we're not on Lord Knight's level and stuff like that.
Nini Heart: But like Lord Knight is like the only good player on the East Coast. Lord Knight and Zidane. Without them the East Coast is free.
Brice: Yeah, okay then. Maybe they're the best except for us.
Nini Heart: So you think we're the best on the East Coast? If we take Lord Knight and Zidane out.
Brice: Huh?
Nini Heart: If we take Lord Knight and Zidane out of the equation, we're the best?
Brice: Yeah, for sure.
Part 2: Kirbster
Nini Heart: So, Kirbster, how do you feel about our scene?
Kirbster: It's getting to be pretty good, actually.
Nini Heart: Getting to be pretty good?
Kirbster: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, we're going out to more majors and stuff.
Nini Heart: Yup.
Kirbster: Having regular meetups, 2-3 times per week.
Nini Heart: Do you feel the scene as a whole is strong? Or we just have a few good players?
Kirbster: I would say the level of skill, yeah it goes from one extreme to the other.
Nini Heart: Yeah.
Kirbster: But uh... more practice will help us.
Nini Heart: More practice will help us.
Kirbster: But, it's that there are a bunch of us who are at a certain level that not everyone else have reached.
Nini Heart: How do you think we could improve the strength of our scene?
Kirbster: Our scene? Play more, man!
Part 3: pochp
Nini Heart: Okay... I'm with...
Rhannmah: HELLO!
Nini Heart: Haha, okay. I'm with Pedro.
pochp: Yeah.
Nini Heart: He's he host of Montreal's scene which he's been organizing.
pochp: I'm not...
Nini Heart: Yes, you are. He's been organizing all the tournaments and the current ranbats are all thanks to him. So, Pedro how do you feel about your scene?
pochp: Uh, it's pretty awesome. Like, l'm usually jealous of other scenes, but it's like we're building our own. So it's awesome.
Nini Heart: Yeah, you've been doing a lot of work and you've been here since the beginning. Do you feel that your scene has improved?
pochp: Uh, yeah a lot. We used to be like really bad. But like now, we've been traveling a bit... you know, improving a lot, playing each other like every week so it's good. It's good.
Nini Heart: I heard you've been traveling a lot, I heard you went to ECT,
pochp: Yeah.
Nini Heart: T12, you, and Brice.
pochp: No, T11.
Nini Heart: T11.
pochp: T11.
Nini Heart: And the last tournament in Toronto...
pochp: Uh... yeah, yeah. There was a little tournament a few weeks ago.
Nini Heart: And I heard you're going to Summer Jam too.
pochp: Yeah, with you.
Nini Heart: Haha.
pochp: I'm driving though.
Nini Heart: You're pretty dedicated.
pochp: Yeah, we try to travel... try to like make interest, get better... You know, it's good motivation- to travel. It makes you want to get better. Then people at home get better because they have to keep up, so...
Part 4: BladeofJustice07
Nini Heart: Okay! I'm with BladeofJustice-o-7.
BladeofJustice07: What's up?
Nini Heart: The second face of Blazblue Montreal, he's been hosting tournaments since day one with Pedro. Blade, how do you feel about your scene?
BladeofJustice07: It's really good that the community is doing a lot of traveling... going to other tournaments, which is really good for the scene. [it gets] greater exposure for Montreal, and we get better exposure for Guilty Gear and Blazblue. Blazblue's been developing so... that was a second goal of mine. A lot of people are getting into Guilty Gear, and from that maybe we could see the resurrection of guilty gear again.
Nini Heart: Well, hopefully...
Part 5: Conclusion
Nini Heart: Okay we're at the end of the meetup day. Everyone's pretty hype, everyone's pretty happy. It was a fun tournament.
Brice: No.
Nini Heart: The best man won.
Brice: No! What the fuck?
Nini Heart: Tager was in grand finals! This is Montreal only! Tager in grand finals!
Brice: You only won because you play Makoto.
Nini Heart: This is kirbster- he got 4th place or 3rd place. Good shit. This is Blade- he got 4th place or 3rd place. Good shit too. Everyone looks really happy... especially Brice.
Brice: Except the real winner..
Nini Heart: Good job on getting second place!
Brice: Yo... yo...
Nini Heart: And this ends the day of the Montreal scene!
