Now that the Sunday EVO order has been announced, what do you think about it?
After BBs amazing Top 8 in 2014, and Woshige's stuff in 2015, anime has finally left the worst slot.

>UMvC3 that early
How the mighty have fallen
>MKX getting the morning death spot
Also, Smash 4 having 2k entrants but being on Saturday is pretty shitty.
>>340183458
At least it's still a Sunday game. And bruh, nearly 5 years at Evo straight with mostly the same time is nothing to sneeze at.
That's more from being newer than anything
But wow MKX has fallen, but at least it is in a better place than KI I guess
Where did we go wrong, /v/?
>>340184207
Nice.

>Melee has finally usurped the penultimate timeslot from Marvel
>Leffen mollywhopped M2K, Armada, Hbox, and Mango at GOML and got a temporary visa that will allow him to attend EVO 2016
This will be a good year.
>>340183458
GGXrd that late seems weird.
Really should have been:
GGXrd>UMvC3>MKXL>Melee>SF5
>>340183295
is persona 4 arena ultimax not going to be there?
Whens Catherine?
>>340183458
Is this Chris G's year to finally take the prize?
I remember people talking about him being unstoppable but last EVO he cried and was taken out early.
>>340183295
>2016
>Melee still isn't dead.
You gotta give props to the Melee pros. They've been keeping up this Weekend At Bernie's shit for almost a decade now, and people still haven't suspected that Melee's actually little more than bones now.
>>340184724
ASW has had the best showing 2 years in a row, only rivalled by USFIVs final top 8. Don't really think the 3rd slot is unwarranted at this point.
Also why on earth would MKXL deserve a slot that good?
>>340184207
Sm4sh is better than melee anyway
>>340185036
>tournament entrants growing
>little more than bones
ok
>>340185331
Because it's at least more hype than UMvC3.
>>340183563
Both Smash games not being on Sunday makes sense. It's still mainly a FGC event and you know a lot of people are going to get pissed off if both are on Sunday plus there could potentially be ~6-7 hours of Smash which could lead to time constraints. It's the reason why CEO won't have both on Sunday too. A lot of people bitch just because both of them are in EVO too, 2 on Sunday would lead to a riot.
That being said, I hope Smash 4 doesn't get fucked over with a Saturday morning slot like last year. That was honestly really shitty, I remember a lot of people dropping out of the doubles side event because of it.
>>340185601
>EVO
>not having tons of tournament entrants
Meanwhile, local and state Melee tournaments are seeing stagnation and decreased attendance, except when Melee pros show up to them.
It's okay, man. There's plenty of time to grieve.
>>340183295
What is this bullshit nobody cares about SFV
>>340185964
It has the highest viewers and attendance at every tournament it's present at, unless you count Smash.
>>340185928
>Melee
>decreasing attendance
lol
>>340184207
Tr4sh is easier to play and pretend you are good at it compared to Melee.
>>340186374
>unless you count Smash
Why not count Smash.
i wish they would replace melee with blazblue or something. smash bros isnt even a fighting game.
>>340185964
lol if you actually believe this you should kys
>XrdR
>finally on PS4
>finally on better time
Oh yes baby!
>>340185036
i keep waiting, but its not dying, its like im living in a parallel dimension when things are wrong.
>>340188434
People got bored of melee. You know for some people watching 2 foxes fighting each other get boring after a decade.
>>340188959
>no items fox only final destination ecks dee
>>340189210
I wish it was the case but its pretty common to watch fox vs fox in melee. Even in fucking double matches 4 FOXES DUDE 4 FUCKING FOXES
>>340188959
when was the last time we had Fox vs Fox only GFs?
>>340189702
It's either Fox vs. Jiggs or Fox vs. Marth, it's been like this for all of 2016 so far.
>>340189357
>>340188959
Thing is every Fox player is different because the character allows it.
Smash 4 characters are so streamline there is little variation to their game-plan.
Of course, casuals viewers don't get this and go watch Sm4sh's "more diverse" style.
How much entrants for Xrd this year?
>>340189891
and Fox vs Falco
and Peach vs Fox
atleast he's a very complex character that's fun to watch unlike the ones in smash 4
>>340185928
>local and state Melee tournaments are seeing stagnation and decreased attendance
Because theres so fucking many!
Why are there so fucking many tournaments now? Its like every week is some nation wide thing
>>340189357
It's so easy to spot the shitposter who hasn't played/watched the game they're shitposting about these days
>>340183295
>GG and Melee in 3rd and 2nd
I expected Melee somewhere in the top 3, but I didn't expect GG
>>340190194
How am i shitposting?
>going to a tourney where you would be literally raped by niggers if you are female
>>340189357
>I have never watched a doubles match in my life
Can you explain it to me? The later game is shown the better?
>>340184482
fag
>>340190416
>only defense is the fox meme
You played yourself
>>340188434
This. I'm glad it's not replacing melee on sunday just because of the numbers.
>>340190416
Because you don't know what you're talking about. Even if it was true that everyone played fox, the game is deeper and more interesting than any other smash. Sakurai even said it if you're unable to see it yourself.
>>340190418
Those females seem to be enjoying themselves.
>>340183295
should be MKXL -> Melee -> GGXrd:R -> UMvC3 -> SF5
>>340190418
are you speaking from your experience or
I don't understand what makes certain times good or bad, can someone explain?
I only care about Tekken but i don't see anything about that in the OP.
>>340192085
>dead game that high
Xrd is only that late because that's where they are announcing Dizzy. Next year it will be back to 9am.
>>340192174
>Tekken
>>340192174
games that are on Sunday get a big stadium, and get more views.
Tekken is on Saturday
>>340192174
The later the game is the more views it gets.
Unless you are in japan which is backwards.
>>340192607
I see, i don't understand why Marvel is there then but i guess this tourny always likes Capcom games.
>>340192967
Marvel always stays there no matter what.
Happened with Marvel 2, same is happening with 3
>NO USFIV
im still mad
>>340189958
Smash 4 is more diverse because the balance isn't as skewed. With Sheik nerfed and not being able to wall out 90% of the cast now and Bayo not being able to hit you twice and win, there's no character that's outright better than everyone.
A lot of people can't even agree on who's the best at the moment. Some people say Diddy, some say Cloud and some say Rosa.
Everyone's also caught up to Zero so majors are incredibly unpredictable at the moment. I watch both games and honestly I enjoyed watching Smash 4 at GOML more than Melee.
>>340193083
its dead , face the reality
>>340192367
almost as bad as barneyfag desu
>>340193083
SF4 is dead. Adapt, evolve, rise up, move on. Don't be a Smash shitter and cling to a corpse for over a fucking decade
Where the fuck is KI?
>>340193379
Who the fuck cares about KI?
>>340193379
fuck off
>>340193542
I do, it's a fantastic game
>>340193565
wew
>>340192367
Gonna be fun
>>340193654
its in another day obviously
>>340193379
>western fighting game
>made by literally who
>for a console nobody owns
>>340193379
Saturday where it belongs
>>340193767
hi neogaf
>>340193654
>I do, it's a fantastic game
Oh cool, some random and anonymous poster on 4chan likes a dead fighting game that isn't fun to play or watch that's only available on a dead in the water console and an OS people are constantly trying to fight off. Better throw it on the main stage even though it constantly has the lowest viewership and people actually booed it when it was first announced for EVO and kept screaming "WHEN'S MAHVEL"!!
>>340193934
people booed it when it at EVO because the Xbox One is a piece of shit console for a horrendous price. That doesn't mean the game is bad.
lol'd at japanese people being forced to watch MKX
>>340194185
>Made by some literally who dev
>No involvement by Rare
>Have to shoe horn the Battletoads in to keep people interested
>Unronically did this trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhTvtmaxZUM
>The FGC has less respect for it than Smash
No, you're right, if it was available for literally any other platform like the PS4 or PC, people would totally play it!
Oh, wait...
>Xrd isn't the most ass-early game on Sunday anymore
about fucking time. Now if only it was on later than Smash, it'd be perfect.
obviously it deserves to be the final game of the day, but it's literally impossible for Guilty Gear to EVER get better treatment than Street Fighter at any major event.
>>340194479
>muh developer recognition
Yes, because Capcom has done such a great job with Street Fighter V.
You're also retarded if you think KI being booed at EVO had anything to do with the game itself.
>>340194581
Certainly not at EVO.
EVO at it's heart is a capcom event. Other games just tag along.
>>340193205
Is this a new meme? what does a purple dinosaur have to do with anything?
>>340194581
I like Guilty too, but you're crazy if you think it deserves to be on later than Melee
It loses in both competitor entries and viewers
>>340194479
>>No involvement by Rare
Why does that even matter?
do you think I could get e-famous if I showed up to EVO just to call LTG a nigger? how could I monetize this?
Literally don't care.
AnimEVO is better, and has the better games.
>>340194581
GG really has no reason to be higher up than it is. Melee and SFV has more viewers and participants, you'd have to be incredibly biased to think otherwise. I don't like SFV, but the reality of the situation is that the vast majority of events would get far less interest if SFV isn't the main game.
>>340195081
Barely anyone watches all of AnimEVO. Some will tune in for a few games they like, but right now AnimEVO is literally just throwing every single game that people can think of into a blender, and just making the overall experience bland as fuck.
>>340195081
why post den
>>340194581
Well, it's already good enough. Anime is niche as fuck after all, you can never compete with SF. Xrd got impressive numbers last year so let's hope it'll do even better.
>>340183458
Wasn't Marvel before Melee last year too?
Is Catherine going to be there again? Last year was the best tournament of EVO.
>>340194835
>>340194919
>>340195101
>>340195231
I know, I know. My opinion is totally subjective, I just think Xrd is a much better and worthwhile game than Melee and DEFINITELY SFV.
But it would be crazy to expect a better time slot than the one it has now. I should just be happy it's not first thing in the morning.
>>340195620
Melee had the 3rd slot last year, that's why all of the shitposting over the numbers dropping hard once UMvC3 came on started.,
>>340193934
I don't understand why you're so mad about him liking a game
>>340195081
>
>>340194479
That's actually exactly right tho, you wouldn't even hate it if it was on ps4. Stop trying to pretend you think for yourself.
>melee this late
holy fucking shit, all the hype built up from GG is gonna nosedive hard while all the nintenyearolds ruin everything for a couple hours
fucking hell why can't smash just FUCK off
>>340196573
Kill yourself faggot
Melee is here to stay
>>340196573
Maybe other games should try having actual communities for once.
>>340196573
>melee
>not hype
>Melee followed by sleep fighter
Literal snoozefest
More like sleepevoer
>>340196573
>melee EVO top 8
>not the hypest shit
The real problem is SFV. Im wishing for surprises but the game is so neutral heavy it bores me to death. Hopefully Ibuki is out. Still, top 8 will be all Japanese and mostly ryus.
>melee that late
Don't nintendoyearolds have curfews?
>>340197580
The melee audience has jackshit to do with modern Nintendo.
>>340196871
Poor PP got photoblocked by hungrycuck in that pic.
Will he be attending?
>>340197707
Smash audience has more in common with nintendo fans than fighting game fans.
>>340197893
not the melee audience
>>340196573
This 2bh.
Keep the lineup the same as it always has been, Marvel is infinitely more hype than Smash, even if it is a dead game.
>>340197893
Smash4, sure.
Certainly not melee, at all. Its an older crowd.
Not a single melee player I know even touched the wiiU. We all have wiis because its a nice melee machine tho. With 20xx and all the other mods.
Professional Marvel is a fucking slog.
>>340198552
You mean competitive, no one gets paid to play marvel.
>>340198676
There are sponsored players, it's close enough to me.
>>340183295
Only remotely interested in GG and SF. Wouldn't be caught dead watching 'Competitive' Smash or MK and I hate high level Marvel.
That's a pretty uggo looking lineup.
