Results / KoF XIII Tournament- So. Cal Alex's Arcade feat. No. 17: March 19th
« on: March 20, 2011, 10:06:40 AM »
Damn I almost finish writing the whole report but my computer crashed =/ Anyway here's a brief summary.
No.17 appeared as special guest from A-cho. He took a first round loss against Romance, but he got better as the tournament progressed and ended up taking 2nd. He commented that our controllers were similar to that of Japan, so he was able to play as he does there. I asked him how were the controls in Mexico because I saw the videos of him playing that Dark Geese uploaded and his skill level was much worse there. He said that wasn't able to play Duo Lon at all with those American style sticks and wasn't able to perform as he normally would. We spoke to him a lot especially over dinner on playstyles and how Japan, Mexico and the US compare, however I'll leave it up to him to either post himself since he'll be signing up or to Dark Geese to interview.
Congrats to Mr. KoF without being taken into losers!
Reynald had a really off day and also did not end up picking Raiden. He will come back with a vengeance next time. He also played a first to 7 series against No.17 and won 7-6.
B.A.L.A improved dramatically especially with picking up Vice. Very dangerous with her juggle anywhere hcf+BD.
Vids will be up soon by Kane317 as we ended up having to use his camera as a backup. The Answer and I spent several days trying to get direct feed working, but could not get it to work with 720p, only 480p. We even ended up burning out one of the parts making the machine unplayable until we got a replacement the day of the tournament. I had to drive 70 miles round trip for this =(
Thank you everyone for making this an awesome tournament. We hope to keep this going and to get direct video feeds next time!
