USA vs The World at Apex

[commonyoshi]

If we're really thinking this is going to be that unbalanced, and we want to give some players from Japan a chance to shine, I think America should just go all Falcon. Think how manly that would be.

 

[SoaK]

I hope leffen brings out his yoshi...and wins lol

 

[Battlecow]

Battlecow you are ****ing ********.


There is a reason to why we chose to divide sweden @ Beast2 for example, because the land who hosts the tournament is obviously gonna have more players.

Nvm, I forgot we did Sweden vs USA @ Beast 2. Usa just didn't take any stocks, they need to step their game up. Oh wait, everyone from USA has their own stupid john for never traveling and yet expect us to and flame armada when he doesn't come. Oh joy.

Wow, I'm ********? That's a bold statement. In fact, I'd argue that when you assert a mental handicap on my part with that level of certainty, there are only two possibilities:

1. You are correct, and I am, in fact, ********.

2. You are, in point of fact, the ******** one, and this accounts for your poor judgment with regard to my mental health.

Let's investigate, shall we?

Your contention is that the United States is going to win because the tourney in question takes place on our home turf, and therefore that my contention that your country needs to step its game up is indicative of my special needs status.

Now, take a look at your proposed list. If you could have anyone--anyone--from the world outside of the US, who would you pick? Perhaps Ice would be on there. Maybe Fuzzyness deserves a spot. Who else? Make a wish list. The list as it would appear if this took place on, let's say, Sweden's home turf. Would that crew beat our crew? Would it have a significantly better chance?

You're full of ****, you're a mean-spirited and fundamentally unlikeable person, you're not remotely intelligent, and you're going to hell. Live with it.

 

[ShroudedOne]

Battlecow going in...

I DO think that the US needs to make plans to go over to Europe though. That's all I'll say.

 

[Dr Peepee]

When I get money I'll do my best to go, that's all I can say lol.

 

[trahhSTEEZY]

"and youre going to hell"

rofllllll unnecessary

glad i get to see the undeleted post :3

 

[crush]

Taking screenshots now :D

 

[Anth0ny]

I think 5 v 5 crews could work on a single setup.

Anyone watch Canada Cup? They did an 8 team bracket, with every match on the stream (I believe).

At Apex, it would probably be a 4 team bracket (WC, EC, South, World). I think that could be done on one setup in one day pretty easily.

Just an idea. USA vs. the World would be hype regardless.

 

[Alex Strife]

Sadly we wont be doing that this year.

Next year might be a good time to try that but for now it is only USA vs the World 8v8 with 2 alternates.

DrPP whenever you can I need the players and their characters a little bit after Tipped off 7

 

[Dr Peepee]

Okay I'll try to get that list to you then. =)

 

[Strong Badam]

u know what char i'm going to use kevin

 

[Linguini]

lol alex strife....if you want regionals to happen they will happen regardless of your logistics.

you only need one free play setup for crews.

regardless I probably won't even watch world crews because there's like zero hype in my eyes. i'd rather watch friendlies between the top foreign and american players

They're the same thing? Except with Canada.

 

[hungrybox]

I'm going all Shiek and ness

 

[ShroudedOne]

Read: I'm going all Puff.

[kevo]

I don't get why people are claiming this will be "no hype" because the USA is almost guaranteed a victory. Remember basketball's Team USA in the '92 and '08 Olympics? Especially in '92, with Jordan, Barkley, Ewing, Malone, Drexler, etc., Team USA was a shoe-in. They curbstomped all their opponents by 40 point margins, but it was mad hype because it was the DREAM TEAM. Against the WORLD! Except at Apex, the World isn't taking it lying down.

 

[tarheeljks]

it could be b/c some of the key names don't seem interested

 

[Doser]

Is Canada confirmed for the world team? If so I'm disappointed.

 

[twizzlerj]

wait hungry box is going all BAIR and BAIR???

 

[Biglard]

I heard Sheik has a pretty good match up against Young Link.

 

[Bing]

Is Canada confirmed for the world team? If so I'm disappointed.

Do we not deserve our chance? I mean we do have a decent amount of high caliber players... KK, Unknown, Raynex, I.B, Weon-X, Sion, Dieslow, Kage, Bam, Vwins etc etc I dont feel like continuing.

 

[ajp_anton]

Except at Apex, the World isn't taking it lying down.

Why wouldn't they? I would feel like a random slave put onto the arena together with other random slaves I don't know (the World crew) against a bunch of gladiators (the USA crew) for the amusement of the spectators (Americans).

You're full of ****, you're a mean-spirited and fundamentally unlikeable person, you're not remotely intelligent, and you're going to hell. Live with it.

Sorry, in our country noone believes in hell.
His point was that you can't expect all our good players to come to you at the same time. If we would make a crew battle with all Europeans and Americans who have actually travelled to the other region, Europe would dominate. If the USA even has enough players for that...
If you're so convinced that USA>Europe (which I in fact do agree with), just send a subset of your best players over here and it will be a more even battle. Then when you lose (because you didn't bring enough good players), we can say it's not our fault you need to step your game up.

 

[LittleBoyLarry]

AJP, you need to come to Apex and record ALL matches.

 

[Mew2King]

hbox will never play non-jiggs in tournament

 

[twizzlerj]

maybe in pools but i cant see hungry box going non-jiggs in tourny

 

[Bing]

Sure HBox could Kirby and Bair like a boss like that....

 

[KirbyKaze]

Sure HBox could Kirby and Bair like a boss like that....

I can see how you might think this way, but I want you to know that you're 100% wrong for a variety of very obvious and simple reasons.

 

[Bing]

-_- I was making a joke, Kirby's bair is brutal compared to Jiggs...and Kirby in general is terrible... for a variety of obvious reasons...

 

[S l o X]

usa:
mango (falcon)
pp (falcon)
s2j (falcon)
hax (falcon)
and then we can just throw together some foxs to make it a little more even. lovage, jman, replicate . . . all that jazz.

i also am pretty confident that regional crews would work if the TO believed / tried it. at worst, we'd end up with no crew battle and just put top players on livestream to do friendlies. regardless, hype.

 

[trahhSTEEZY]

get *****, kaze

 

[KirbyKaze]

My apologies, then. I wasn't quite sure, based on our most recent conversations.

 

[Bl@ckChris]

regional crews could work, they just wouldn't work on friday in the time slot we have them, for the exposure and the reason we have them for right now.

i'm looking forward to this.

 

[Bing]

sheesh David im not THAT ******** -_-

Infact Im actually Improving quite a bit... I think :S

 

[Alex Strife]

Basically that Chris said. Its not that I dont want it its more of we would not have time based on the allotted time we have. I want to end everything at midnight at the latest not 2am or anything like that.

Also I want to stream the entire thing not have some great crew matches missed or just recorded.

Do not forget that while some of you say we should do that it is us that has to put in the work to put it together. We are the ones picking captains, making sure everyone participates, and making sure we run the event. For most crews I remember, they would either not finish or not happen due to time.

I hope you guys understand its not just a tournament but a broadcast we are doing. It makes sense for us to do one exhibition vs several where it would take a lot more time.

I ask all of you to really think about that.

 

[Bing]

Alex really wants to put on a show...Falcon battle Royale, on Yoshi's, first to win 3 games win. Do ittt

 

[Alex Strife]

Lol most likely not this year. We are doing a few different things this year that will blow your minds though

 

[Geenareeno]

Venue rental: $2,000
Set ups: $800
Streaming and recording equipment: $500
The moment when, unexpectedly, fog covers the ground, the Techno starts pumping, and the strobe light starts flashing: Priceless.

Did you read my post? I asked him who he would field if he could pick anyone. It wouldn't make a bit of difference.

That said, my original point was that you guys need to stop johning about not having... whoever... and step up your pride.
