EVO Update: Top 8

[Igneous42]

Really enjoyable top 8 and it was awesome to see a Tira player take it. Decopon is awesome.

Congrats to all of the placers at Evo, especially to Decopon, you were on another level and took the crown today!

well no ofense i like tira and all and am very happy she won evo, but i really found it iritating to die and not be able to come back just because she takes here life away with some key moves if only she didnt have that retarded defect i would totally use her more often, i already have to manage meter, i dont wanna have to do health management too but i absolutely love the character

The self damage isn't as brutal as it was in SCIV.
You just have to be careful on which moves DO take health and which don't.
44B doesn't take health and majority of the time, people will fall for it and try to block low since it looks like a low.
44A is a good side stepper and takes no health either.
236K is also a great low, takes no health and can give you a chance to switch to Jolly.
Just figured I'd share.
Edit: always get the notations mixed up. >.<

666B doesn't take health and majority of the time, people will fall for it and try to block low since it looks like a low.
66A is a good side stepper and takes no health either.

Lolwut you have it wrong.

the only player that even came close was kmaage the japanese mitsu.
so if he had won we would still have had a Japanese winner.
i think we should start learning from the Japanese i knew it would only be a matter of time before they took over SCV.

Haha. You do know that Shen Yuan went to Japan and won their SBO qualifier right? Completely undefeated and in the same tournament as Decopon? Stop dickriding.
