I think SKT is going to be overconfident just like Azubu Frost was last year and lose. Koreans are really good but this is the first international tournament there has been in a while and nobody can really say who is better than who.
can someone explain to me how this is any different from DOA4 aside from the power blows?
It still looks like sidestep has extremely limited use, everything stuns on counter hit instead of leading to guaranteed damage, and wakeup kicks still exist.
Alex J. is nothing short of a community treasure. To those who think it's disrespectful to trash talk your opponent or showboat: lighten up. Alex was obviously doing it to create hype and it was all in good fun. He even congratulated me at the end.
On the subject of the level of play...
