asked you if you wanted to have a game and you said you never tried netplay

My friend got it working like a month ago, but then I did something and it stopped. :(

I've been too lazy to figure it out. I usually have people over to play at least once a week. So I don't need it, but right now I'm so hyped for MvC2 I need it working.

I mean to be fair MK11 had nearly 1600 entrants last year, double what SC6 had and more than UNIST and DBFZ had. I don't give a shit about MK11 personally, but I do think this is realllly weird omission that sticks out, especially since I remember a year or two (MK9 maybe?) where it was baffling that MK was still making it in.

Yeah 2013 had both Injustice and MK9, which I think is the only time two NRS games made it.

MK11 is the first NRS game to get booted off Evo after one year

ElBoxy · Feb 4, 2020

Mass Effect · Feb 4, 2020

So wait, has any single NRS game ever been at 2 consecutive EVOs? I feel like they've always been dropped after 1. I thought MK11 would be the one to make two EVOs, but apparently not.

oh, well that answered my question

I hope Smash gets the last Sunday spot again. Walking out of the arena at 7:30ish felt nice. I was able to grab a bite and hit up the anime suite. 👍

I hope SFV gets the last spot and doesn't start til 10pm PST for the lulz/salt

I am anxiously awaiting to see who of the marvel gods will be invited to play. I am sure we will be seeing a LOT of Sentinel

There can never be enough Sentinel. I'm sure if I still had my old avatar, it would be quoted to hell and back.

My body is ready for more mvc2

In other news, SonicFox is officially stepping into the SFV ring.

He's not going to play FANG again is he?

DoubleTake · Feb 5, 2020

Legit surprised at no MK considering the amount of entrants it got last year. But also not surprised considering how much of a bore that game is to watch.

Not sure, they have been practicing quite a bit with Gill.

He's been playing Gill and G lately.

I wouldn't be surprised if they went with Gill. But Seth is coming soon, so maybe SonicFox will pick them up.

MK is all flash and no substance man. The game is good to watch at a casual level, but the deeper you go, the more you realize how boring it is.

Since we're talking about a hypothetical MvC4, thoughts on my tier list of who should show up?

If MVC4 happens Quake better be on the damn roster.

Keylow · Feb 5, 2020

Brazil · Feb 5, 2020

So damn hyped for GBVS. That game's gonna consume me.

A Strong Latte · Feb 5, 2020

wiz gotta dig up all the old MAHVEL 2 "personalities" via invitational tournament because none of them are good enough to qualify for top 8 in anything open or new.

Friday Top 8: Under Night Exe 358/2 HD
Saturday Top 8: Samsho, Granblue Fantasy, DBFZ, Soul Calibur
Sunday Top 8: Street Fighter V, Tekken 7, MAHVEL, Smash

I'm just happy if I can get X, Zero and Cyclops in the same game. Unreasonably happy, people will stare at me.

I like this tier list a lot.

You just named one of my teams if Marvel 4 ever happens with them on the roster. I need me son Cyke.

This. Its a game with very refined basics but deep as a puddle in terms of tech to discover. I think that really hurts it when you compare it to say SFV. Both are relatively basic games but SFV's added mechanics makes things a bit more "unpredictable" and explosive which MK lacks.

They need to find a middle ground between the balls to wall nuttiness that MKX was and the more methodical gameplay of MK11.

sure, he's THE FGC legend along with Daigo, but he's still one of the old Marvel personalities... basically the only one who still is relevant in the fighting community as a player.

Compbros · Feb 5, 2020

You cant comment on MK11 having views not as good as others while it was a Saturday game. Sunday games are always gonna have more views than Saturday and numbers are gonna be inflated by people just tuning into "Evo Sunday" regardless of what's being played.

ArbitraryWater · Feb 5, 2020

I am 100% behind the sheer audacity of dropping an NRS game and putting Marvel vs Capcom 2 back onto the main stage instead. Also, props to SamSho and Under Night for staying in there, I guess.

Ah, so it's not a full-scale tournament? Huh. Well that probably speaks worse of MK 11 (and I guess BB Cross Tag) than whatever I was thinking.

I mean, I guess it could be hype but I don't see it overtaking any of the Sunday games that I listed.

no, but that will definitely be the perception regardless of whether it's true.
