EVO 2014: Euro will never Top 8

[Moridam]

hmm, my stick isn't listed in the results, but the performance of the other PS3 hori models doesn't inspire confidence.

[Weltall]

Lol @ Markman trying to defend the MadCatz sticks. Guess its time to buy a Hori VLX as soon as they make them for next-gen.

[Weltall]

God I wish you guys knew how bad Dudley/Gief is.

I imagine its just as bad as Ibuki/Hugo or Ibuki/Bison.

[The Blackrose]

I'll have to crack open my Fusion and see if I got a two-tiered PCB. Pretty sure I have one of the original Q4RAFs though.

[Weltall]

So I used the "Fight Tracker" on Eventhubs to find people within 20 miles of my current location. First person on the list....DevilMaySpy. Fuck me..

I think Yuffy~ is going to EVO too. Want to join?

[Moridam]

So I haven't even thought about transportation or anything... What's the best way to get from the airport to the venue? Is there a shuttle service or is it better to just cab it?

[Weltall]

Most people cab it. When are you arriving?

Edit: Wait nvm, I'm not even staying at the same hotel.

[Krandor]

Likely taking a cab myself though I wouldn't be surprised if they have a hotel shuttle available.

[octopus]

There are (paid) shuttle buses that goes to all the hotels too. Obviously taking a cab is the fastest/easiest. Depends on your schedule really.

[Weltall]

FYI: Cab to any strip hotel is usually around $18-22.

man fuck everything about hugo. i have to do alternate punishes to EVERYTHING as evil ryu. always forget that he's basically invincible after you crumple him

edit: PERFECT. there we go.

[Weltall]

E Ryu should have no problems with Hugo.

Fireballs
Standing FK
Standing MK
Teleport to some degree
Cr. MP as AA

Anyone with fireballs is in favor, right? Even Sakura should have insane footsies against him.

[Callisto]

Sak neutral is okay against him but not super one-sided. Her fireball is kinda crappy and her S.HK is pretty slow, most grapplers can focus it and dash up for an SPD punish.

[Don Katsu]

I have had 0 problems with Hugo using

E.Ryu
Oni
Ken
Akuma
Ryu
Gouken
Sagat

But FML if I try Ibuki, Cammy or Rolento on him

Ultradavid seems to think Hugo vs Ken is 5-5 <---- LOL!!!

Juri vs Hugo is 10 - 0. just use all her 3 fireballs and he cant get even close to her, because all her fireballs hit him standing (even the HK one...) he cant do anything against juri to get in, ecxept for EX lariat which is super punishable. Definitly worst existing matchup in Ultra.

[Krandor]

Well, I would say it's worth noting that Hugo's dash is really really good, especially for a character of his nature. If he can close any kind of distance, FA dash into his 360 is bad news bears. Against good Hugo's I've gotten absolutely bodied by that because it makes me scared to throw out any single hit move.

Granted, I don't play fireball characters so meh

[Krandor]

So for those going and staying at the venue, is anyone bringing a setup? Debating if I want to pack my monitor and 360
