    Re: The Truth about VF...(Pt. 2)

    3 things:

    1. Kage was the most represented char in this tourney. He was already one of the most popular char in Evo tourneys (KS2 and OH3), and that was before am2 screwed up the other chars in FT.

    2 .Very few players can play wolf so well like Hideo.

    3. Few if any, said that Jacky was overpowered in OH3 when Haijin won it, at least not on Japanese msg boards anyway.

    Am2 did nothing to nerf a char that was already strong and well represented in tourneys, but they sure did a lot to make sure most of the other chars were weakened in FT.

    AFAIK, Aoi is the most well-represented character in this tournament with 6 players.

    That sounds like a sane attitude! Nerf characters due to their popularity. If we put a toxicavenger head on the most popular characters (autobanitem after a couple of wins that can't be removed) so that their use will go down the games moves will be balanced. Hey it worked for Dural (and to some extent Lion for being ghey)!

    Let me tell you one thing though, Hideo would be a lesser player if he played Wolf.~~

    Well done to hideo for winning at last another character besides akira,jacky or kage actually win something.

    Hideo kicks asss, that's the story of VF, hahah.

    btw, using a tournament analogy was as lame as using it with kage theory, that's why nobody did.

    we all broke apart the facts. --- and still found nothing we agree on.

    HIDEOOO!!! /versus/images/graemlins/cool.gif

    8, chemuru and hideo i think are the strongest wolfs i have seen from japan. it was bound to be one of them to pull though this far. 8 normally comes so close /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    I find it still weird that this tournament has received zero exposure on am.sega.jp's website (unless I'm totally blind). I mean, the heroism2 page is hosted by them, but there's no means to navigate to it?

    Re: The Truth about VF...(Pt. 2)

    1 tourney can say nothing about the game's balance, period, which includes the fucking OTE4. VF is not that simple and we already all know it. Trying to draw a fact out on the game's blance from who won a tourney here and there, which happens to be all single-freaking-elimination, is IMHO pointless.



    P.S. I have a feeling that Dandy will make a new avatar after every tournament in Japan. =P

    3. Few if any, said that Jacky was overpowered in OH4 when Jin won it, at least not on Japanese msg boards anyway.

    I dont understand your statement. OH4 was won by Jin playing Kage. OH3 tourney winner played Jacky. Did you mean to say that few thought Kage was overpowered?

    Am I the only one to realize that Hideo only had to fight one Kage's in the whole tournament?
