If they wernt running a dead smash game like melee along side sm4sh, sm4sh probably couldve had a better presentation.

Solution, drop melee, spend more time and energy on sm4sh players. Problem solved.

But OP youre right, smash players are cancerous especially faggy melee players. More faggy than ricki ortiz.

Tr4shfags only play tr4sh, so they're pretty much exclusively used to going to smash tourneys and being treated like gods among gods there, now that they're at a REAL tournament sharing space with actual fighting games, they get triggered and insecure when said royal treatment they are accustomed to is not handed to them

Believe it or not but, I actually snuck into EVO today.
I thought about staying the whole day but,
Their weren't enough chairs for everyone.
I stood around, To watch the games, the lights were so bright, I couldn't enjoy the screen.
The quality was shit.
I actually started to envy the stream audience at least they got to be comfy while watching the games.

Oh there was an uncomfortable amount of nu-males and very few qt females.
Most girls their were ugly.

Obviously trolling as no one that autistic posts on 4chan. Seriously, you sound like a creep if thats how you actually talk

Regardless of your mental deficiencies, melee players are literally praised for abusing glitches to win matches and anyone with two hands can pick up competitive Sm4sh, due to its easy pick up and master skill level. Sm4shs pools were so big this year. Do you honestly think even half of the people who entered in were any good?

Give up, your game may be fun, but smash is easy and friendly to play, not technical.

Payouts and scheduling have a lot to do with sponsorship and viewers. If you play professional esports you should understand that.

One melee and smash 4 don't have dev support. two everyone pretty much thinks it is all but luck to beat any of the 5 kings of melee when they show up.

Seriously when is smash gettting shafted, shit has the absolute worst community, especially with complaining about not getting the absolute best possible treatment at fucking evo of all tourneys. Shit is also just boring to watch, melee and sm4sh, seeing the exact same 5 tops players in both with the same exact characters in the same exact matchups. Hope Pokken stays and smash gets booted, smash autists have no respect while Pokken manages to be civilized like every other non-smash community.

>>345305076
I have, I meant that seeing how they turn league characters into fighting game characters would be interesting I'd assume abilities would be their specials and ults would be there supers seeing them turn stuff like that into a 2d and still make the character recognizable and have their signature moves from league would be cool. Also if it would bring anything unique to the table, like would summoner spells be represented in anyway as maybe specials that you could pick and swap out before a match. considering riot I doubt we'll get anything even close to that good/complex though

But almost all melee's top 32 players have sponsors.
And Melee had the second highest viewer count last year.
And Melee actually had more entrants then ever before, having the third entrants at evo.

So I don't really follow your point, or anyone else in here saying that Melee is dying off, seeing as it has literally been upward trending for four years straight.

Sm4sh and Melee have the second and third biggest amount of entrants respectively, plus a lot of viewers.

Most top melee players also have sponsors of their own, while Sm4sh gets Nintendo sponsorship.

Player sponsorships dont contribute to payout, melee and sm4sh have very few to none sponsors thay specifically cater to melee and 4.

But Pokken is an actual fighting game.

Granted it's a shitty one, but there is no point of comparison with Smash.

It's not only Zero, even Ally, the champion, was complaining about it.

>>345305894
Any excuse to shit on a game these cucks don't like. Even melee got dragged into this sm4sh argument when I haven't seen any melee players complain about their treatment at this Evo. Only sm4sh.

>>345305925
Pokken was a good idea and a decent game, but lets be real, it doesn't have that many players, so, I don't think it will survive

Smash in general needs to be dropped from EVO. Shit takes way too long. Of course as long as Wiz is raking in the shekels that ain't happening.

Well at any rate I doubt it'll last. I don't think the scene is that big and Pokken by itself went 30 minutes overboard even accounting for Smash lasting over an hour too long.

Here is the real problem though.

Smash 4 has a lower viewer to competitior ratio, making it a pain in the ass. To make things worse, Smash generally has a higher number of autists, and Smash 4 has a high number of literal children.

Melee has less players, gets more views, and creates more ad revenue. Though it's players are just as autistic, they tend to be older, and there are fewer of them.

Naturally, SSBM is the better game to keep at Evo... If it wasn't for Nintendo wants to see the newer game that still sells. If Evo only does Melee, Nintendo isn't paying for it, and might shut down the stream out of spite.

Still, I don't see how you can keep both Smash games next year. If they don't expand the number of games, and both Guilty Gear and Killer Instinct stay on, that means that Blazblue is going to steal a slot from Melee. Smash 4 has shit viewer numbers for the amount of hassle it's players are, so why not bring MKX back for another run?
>>
>>345306025

I assume that's because Melee got better treatment than Sm4sh did.

Didn't M2K drop out of Sm4sh out of protest because of how poorly it was scheduled?

I don't think it was out of protest he is just being smart for once and not letting smash 4 harm his melee chances like at GOML

KoFXIV should be replacing MKX, but I think Injustice should be gutted for Blazblue.

Sm4sh gets Nintendo money and Melee gets sponsor and viewer money, there is no way they're going to be removed.

In all honesty though, I don't think Evo can keep the weekend format for much longer.

>>345306150
>>345306116
I was just saying he was wrong by calling it a party game. It was boring as fuck anyway. Melee may technically be a party game but it's hype as fuck and better than Pokken.
>>
>>345304536
HAHAHAHAHAHA
>>
>>345304850
If a Smash game is going to be dropped, it will be Melee. Because the only reason Nintendo allows it to be streamed is because Smash 4 is in.
>>
>>345306379
Plup does decently against Hbox. I heard he's 8-15 in sets against him. Hbox was a bit shaky against Shroomed today, and Plup plays against Hbox more.

I thought for sure Evo would start on Thursday. I'm surprised it didn't. For such a large event you wanna make sure the schedule isn't too tight and clearly it is.

Who cares if it has a high number of entrants or viewers? Smash is only allowed to be played because it makes Wizard money. No one who plays real fighting games gives a fuck about it

They could also stop being greedy idiots and limit the entrants. Or maybe make the first part of the pools on a previous date in different regions, though that would require a logistical effort that I doubt Wizard can make.

Luckily SFV had Capcom's help because if it was left just to the Evo TOs it would've faced similar problems to Sm4sh, if not worse.

>>345306678
If it wasn't considered a fighting game then it would've been sent to side tourneys like Catherine did. Heck, even anime fighters are sent to side tourneys.

It's considered a fighting game, let it go man.

typical /v/. Just a few years ago it would have been an anime fighter that got shittily organized like this, this is nothing new for EVO
>>
>>345306609
>I thought for sure Evo would start on Thursday. I'm surprised it didn't.
This was a big topic even last year. You have to remember, 90%+ of the people attending EVO are just normal people with regular jobs. It's already a lot for people to get EVO days off (Thursday-Monday typically), if they started on Thursday people would have to arrive on Wednesday. Wed-Fri alone is 3 days of not working and requesting off. It's a big deal. The "better" solution is just running things better/more setups.

>>345306872
>Limit the entrants
This is how you prevent shit from growing.
Stop it.

More time and TOs is the right idea.
It's clear that the event is growing but they aren't doing enough to keep up with the growth rate.

Limiting entrants is just the wrong choice.
>>
>>345302837
>Tr4shfags only play tr4sh

Objectively false:

EVO 2016 Single-game entrants:

SFV: 2515/5065 (49.65%)
Melee: 1501/2352 (63.82%)
MKX: 224/707 (31.68%)
Smash 4: 1302/2641 (49.30%)
UMvC3: 156/770 (20.26%)
T7: 124/543 (22.84%)
KI: 141/540 (26.11%)
Pokken: 186/1166 (15.95%)
GGXRD: 170/902 (18.85%)

The only ones who play "their game" at EVO is the Melee players as usual. Everyone else happily plays other games at the event.
>>
>Finals happend at 5:40om EST

It was a really horribly timed tournoment, EVO really did fuck up smash 4 this year.

I could not see it because I was at work, half of my fucking friends were at work, and fuck it was a fucking amazing finals, a Mega Man beating Zero? no, seriusly, fuck EVO.

It always does through you fucking Retard, most tournaments always end at fucking 7pm at most for max views, besides a fucking event should plan around a schedule that allows then max amount of views and think about the fans following it, and that is BENEFICIAL to its viewers, or what the point? because of this Smash 4 only broke 70k views, when it did 110k last year, and is becoming increasingly popular, hell they have 500 more entrants than melee??.

But is ok, lets fuck around with your player base, is not like here other tournaments that could easily over take you out there in the market if you keep pissing off your viewers.
