Nice. Hoping there's SF3: OE tourney.

If it still has enough people playing it by next year, though.

SnowShingo · October 18, 2011, 04:06:27 AM

3S will probably be a team tourney if anything.

MDD · October 18, 2011, 04:16:43 AM

I hope Noah does not come back.

Luis Alejandro · October 18, 2011, 04:18:42 AM

Hater

All the kid did was mash s.H with Hulk and the crowd went wild. Meanwhile, Royal Flush runs away from Noah's lvl. 2 X-Factor Sentinel by flying and he gets booed.

Super Armor =/= Prodigy.

I hope Noah does not come back.

Seeing as Hulk gained thrice the super armor in that H of his, Noah obviously will.

Geoff the Hero for EVO 2012

THIS. Top 4 would be a good segue between majors.

SSFIVAE2012 or SFxT, the other will get a minor
UMvC3
TTT2 or SCIV, the other will get a minor
Skullgirls
KOF13, MK9 and Catherine get minors.

RunningWild · October 23, 2011, 06:06:03 AM
