Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
MK has pretty much always been a one and done as far as evo goes. MVC2 has been brewing in the background w/ yipes and various others running tourneys lately. MVC3 too for that matter. Lotta rusty people but high level play of both those games is still a thing all of its own. IF people actually shake the rust off, and practice up-marvel is super hype. Bring out Art's horde of modded dreamcasts! Sloppy mvc is gonna be a bummer tho, and the execution ceiling in that game is pretty absurd.
I'm semi surprised that SC is back again- that scene seems to have died pretty hard. The rest are pretty much gimme's. I am amused that samsho is back, but not shocked.

Art and Spooky been keeping it alive during lockdown, running online tourneys. They actually found enough people with ps3 versions of MvC2 to do a tourney. On GF now

so I have been using the quarantine to get my 6yo into the amazingness that is Dragon Ball. He is done with DB and into the Namek saga for DBZ. Got us DB FighterZ when it went on sale and now I'm obsessed, I feel like I'm getting the hang of it and can get A and S rank in arcade no problem but then I go into matches and get my shit pushed in, any experts in here who can give me some advice on improving.
Art and Yipes running a mvc2 tourney. Going on break for a min now. But mvc2 is always kinda weirdly hype at the top end.

FGC got hit hard this year. We have over a years worth of posts in a single page of this thread. I blame SFV (and covid)
It really was covid. Once all the locals dried up, the momentum just died. No one has any hopes for online tourneys to be a serious endeavor, so even tho some of them were engaging, it was always with a lens of well- that prolly wouldn't have gone down the same offline.
Mr Wiz getting canceled and EVO being buried mid year was the death knell.
The MVC2 thing i mentioned, was local on some of art's modded to shit dreamcasts. It's great to know, even in 2020- ghetto tourneys in appartments over a dreamcast are still happening. Fuck esports.
