H Box forever 2nd. But congrats to Armada though! I just wish he used Peach. But Fox does make more sense.

I bet things would be different if M2K competed.

ARMADAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Katazuki]

Plup didn't even get his medal. The salt of Smash players is REAL. Also Mango doesn't even care about 5th place, THROW THAT MEDAL INTO THE CROWD.

And now...IT'S MAHVEL BAYBEE. LET'S GO RAYRAY.

>People in the crowd booing Hungrybox at the award ceremony

Holy shit, get a life, you can't say he didn't earn second place.

[pholtos]

Since I didn't care to watch, can I get some info on what happened and why people are upset at other people?

[Argumentable]

I'm watching this for some reason

[pholtos]

Hulk Smash

[Katazuki]

So close, RayRay! ;A;

But I'm definitely not against KBR! His team is AMAZING. Congrats to you, man!

But now it's time for the final of finals, USFIV! PR ROG LET'S GO.

On another note, I WANT APOLOGYMAN'S SHIRT.

• Hungrybox forces a time-over to win one match; since ledge-camping is boring to watch despite being viable, people get upset because they think it's cheap (he ends up losing the set anyway)
• Knocks the favorite out of the tournament in the losers bracket to stop him from a third straight EVO win (instant butthurt)

Fight stick malfunction in the GRAND FINAL MATCH!? WHAT!?
WHAT!?
WHAT!?
WH...

[pholtos]

All right I think I enjoy watching competitive video game fighting. Especially after that.
(Except melee, melee can die in a fire.)

[TheFinalSentinel]

AND MOMOCHI TAKES IT ANYWAY! :D

OH MY GOD!

[Katazuki]

Fight stick malfunction in the GRAND FINAL MATCH!? WHAT!?
WHAT!?
WHAT!?
WH...

THIS WAS THE MOST NUTS GRAND FINALS EVER.

IN FACT THIS ENTIRE FINALS WAS NUTS.

BEST GRAND FINALS IN EVO HISTORY.

[Animita]

Holy fuck that malfunction.
I think I made a sound that no human should be able to make when that happened.

[Katazuki]

And at last, we have been set free. Thanks Spooby!

So now let's get down to some real discussion! What was your favorite finals and also your favorite moment of this year?

If anything, from what I've just witnessed, USFIV definitely is my favorite finals. But my favorite moment has to be that premature pop off from Woshige in Xrd to get eliminated. Hype was too much for him.

[TheFinalSentinel]

What was your favorite finals...

As a guy whose favorite game at EVO is Persona 4 Ultimax...
SF4. That malfunction and then taking the ultimate round anyway... SO HYPE.

...your favorite moment of this year?

that premature pop off from Woshige in Xrd to get eliminated. Hype was too much for him.

Heartbreaking.
You should've heard the noise I made when he suddenly jumped out of the chair and started running center stage.

I wasn't there to see it live. I didn't start watching until the beginning of Melee Finals since I was busy beforehand.

But yeah, it was definitely heartbreaking. It reminded me of this, but much more.

Well shit there was no way I stayed up until 5am to watch USF4 but it seems like I'll definitely need to watch the VODs

Oh definitely. I'm the type who typically doesn't enjoy 2d fighting games and I found the top8 to be really fun to watch.

[raocow]

just be ready to save up a fair amount of time.

loosers finals is probably one of the longest sets I have ever seen in terms of 'real life clock' length, and it's so intense in parts, wow.
