Why do tornado claw combos when you can do challenge mode combos with little variations and less room for error to the same effect? >_>

Doing 2 loops is fairly easy, Does more damage than DHC, you get to keep Wolv on point, and you don't have to blow X factor to kill (which is HUGE and my main reason for arguing it's use). While I say just do lvl 3...when you have 2 meter why not? The first hit off the OTG is brainless and if you screw up the 2nd hit you are often safe. I saw a lot of wolverines either not finishing opponents off because they didn't want to DHC for the kill or wasting X-factor when they had the resources to get a kill through meter. And this was in general, not just the tornado claw loop. Lot of wolverines were dropping easy things and not using meter/x-factor intelligently.

I'm not an amazing wolverine player, but I know enough to raise an eye brow to a lot of the decisions people made and while there are mistakes that occur under the pressure...there was just too much with every player I was seeing. A lot of amazing play on point to get the damage and then bad decision making and execution on the hit.

It was really weird because except for the Taskmasters and 2 of the Akumas in top 8, most were not very good and were really carried by AMAZING play on their other cast. It was baffling to see such incredible Weskers, Dantes, Amaterasu, and Magnetos...and then not be able to control these characters well. Like how the hell do you screw up Wolverine combos repeatedly and then do those insane Dante combos we were seeing?!?!?

My favorite player by far was the Spiderman in top 32. Was very sad when he got eliminated. And that White Wesker in top 8 was INSANE!

Also any insight on that Zero/Phoenix/Tron team?!? Me and my friends could not think of why the hell he would use Phoenix 2nd and Tron as anchor. Too little room to build meter and makes it so killing Zero is an easy way to get phoenix in rather than snapping her, Tron is a bad anchor if phoenix goes down, Phoenix doesn't need Tron assist...like he was really good but this team order was puzzling.

As for the kid, he was really good for his age, and we were definitely WTF'ing over how people were getting destroyed by j.S spam...but I thought his sentinal was pretty legit. He wasn't doing the big combos, but he was playing pretty smart. Really I don't see a reason to cut him down, but there was definitely some dumb mistakes that allowed him to get as far as he did. But if it works....it works.
 
This game has made the whole world a little bit dumber.

No, this game just showed that the world has always been dumb.

I think the reason that people were dropping combos were probably because the majority of the people who participated in evo, were probably online players thinking they were legit. People don't realize how much online play fucks up your game offline. I really do regret not signing up for Evo after watching how well that kid did.
 
Still it was a big case of one character was super technical and doing risky combos with a lot of areas to drop being performed beautifully...and then we get to an easy character like Wolverine and they're afraid to do really simple things much less just do the easy BnB. Like no one should ever miss a Wolverine combo more than once or twice in a match, I get that the game is fast and there's high pressure, but Wolverine combos are stupid easy as long as you keep in mind the starter for hit stun reasonings or forgetting how many dive kicks you did.

I don't disagree about the Wolverine thing; I was just saying that's going to be people's logic when they think about something like that. I've said before that most combos in the game take around ten minutes to get down (though, if you know others, possibly longer to actually apply in matches).
