I love playing the game, but the top tiers are so stupidly OP that it makes most matchups straight up mirror matches with grooves being the only differences.
Vortex gallery imo did a real bad job of advertising the side tournaments so not a lot of people knew about them. Idk there was a DOA or T5DR tourney, let alone when the reg ended till it was too late
This was the last time I played fighting games in a somewhat serious manner and it is a true testament to Doc B and BAS for consistently being at the top of the charts at majors. Shout out to Dr. B for driving me to a tournament one time, btw.
To be honest, I think nostalgia does little work with this game, when you analize it it is much much better than modern fighting games, so its great we are getting it rereleased next year :D
Pleasantly surprised to see this game in tournament. I might be in the minority but I have always believed this series was way better than Marvel Vs Capcom. Wish they made Capcom Vs SNK 3
@@Ronldbx6 Each groove has different gameplay mechanics tied to it. S-Groove allows you to charge meter, side-dodging and so on, while P-Groove is like SFA3's X-Ism, which allows only 1 special but higher attack if I recall correctly. Each groove is different and I would probably spend way too much time explaining and I may even get a lot of it wrong tbh.
This game could use the point system to make the games more fun to watch it gets boring when you see the same characters over and over again but well played by everyone in the video
““less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark - that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.” - Hunter S Thompson. Quote seemed applicable because CvS2 was the high water mark of fighting games. If there’s a game developer reading this: please make a precise 2D fighter that isn’t cartoonish and half the match isn’t an air combo. It’s a little ridiculous that CvS2 and Samurai Shodown 4 are still some of the best fighters ever made. We’re the first generation of people to feel like we are 90 years old in our mid 30s. Please give us a new retro 2D fighter. We will pay
What setup did they use for the tournament? Is this fightcade with scanlines or are they using a ps2 running through something like a RetroTink 5x up scaler?
At competition level, only A groove matters (and maybe C). Others don't matter at all, as anyone with those loses against A, as you can see. But the victor will always be A-groove. And for A groove, Blanka and Bison is always given.
ratio is when you choose how many characters you will use, having three will have low hp but you got three different characters, you can also use one or two characters with more hp, having only one is straight up a boss lol And handicap is in almost every fighting game, you can choose to have an advantage or disadvantage, no one uses it though
I wish this game had more characters that are not part of King of Fighters' Orochi Saga: K' Maxima Kula Krizalid Jhun Hoon Clone Zero Igniz Ramon Vanessa etc.
BAS wins Free every evo. He does it so he gets his plane fair back. So essentially it’s good for him to get a free trip. And play and win money matches and pick up the odd retro title awards.
How can I play this game now a days? I had it for the GameCube back in the day. Now I have a PS5 and I want to play this game! Is there anyway to play it?
Glad to see this game is still played. It's easily one of the best fighting games of all time.
CVS2 is a real gem of the fighting game world. Still a great game and one of the best fighter soundtracks ever!!
Have you seen how much the soundtrack goes for on ebay?!? Eek
th-cam.com/video/djcw5R4EQ30/w-d-xo.html
Watching or playing this game never gets old ...one of the best fighting games ever still til this day
The first one was good too but this one gives you more freedom
I love playing the game, but the top tiers are so stupidly OP that it makes most matchups straight up mirror matches with grooves being the only differences.
@@TheDeadTexan Yeah, top tiers in this game just have such an advantage compared to other people.
@@TheDeadTexan imagine if this game was balanced better. It’d be a legit contender for best FG ever made.
@@ellis7622still wish the EO version of the game would get more competitive play since it had all those bug fixes.
Didn’t even know this happened at EVO 2022.
n00b
Same. Had no idea this game was in evo 2022.
Vortex gallery imo did a real bad job of advertising the side tournaments so not a lot of people knew about them. Idk there was a DOA or T5DR tourney, let alone when the reg ended till it was too late
@@InfernalSpyro damn DOA and Tekken would be copl
@@s13shaka and this video you said pee groove had instant overhead it’s actually called Universal overhead

That was awesome matches. The game never gets too old to play or watch.

BAS's A-Yamazaki is incredible!
Thank you Team Spooky for providing us with the FGC content we need

I had this game on my Game Cube and damn what a masterpiece !!! Im so happy to see it at Evo in 2022 !!!
GameCube come on you know it all about ps2 but game cube made it easy for combo with their joystick
@@Altezza447 PS2 is fine, but why would it be all be about that when you can play on DC or Naomi?
The Nostalgia is real,very good game. Nice to see it being played in 2022 by awesome players.

Recuerdo este juego desde que salió en 2001, es super genial, espero vuelvan a sacar la tercera entrega
I am always excited to see what top players can do with P-groove.
one of the greatest fighting games ever made i dunno why this isn't available on steam
That Psycho Crusher parry was 🔥 love seeing P groove.
I will always be a Dr. B fan! I love anyone with a spontaneous wacky style which forces others to adapt.
Love to see the player camera angle. Cool to see these sick inputs.
Great job everyone tremendous skills on display and good job by the hosts as well!
This game and alpha 3 are my favorite fighting games.
this game is basically alpha 4 & MUCH better than alpha 3 to where i don't even play alpha 3 lol snk2 is too dope for words
Dude same!! Let’s play on Fightcade!! My name is Flabber on there
@@joeresio nah, fam: my 1 guile, 1 blanka, 2 vega team (n groove) would absolutely END fightcade
@@LIONTAMER3D laugh out loud.
@@joeresio to quote joe higashi: "STOP SUCKING DIIICKS!!!"
Played this all the time when it came out. Who would have thought 20 years later….
I hate how people never use cool characters.
Yamazaki was so good. The only time i see a snk character in a grand final
You should probably watch more grand finals.
Why is it every time I see a London Stage thumbnail that lady queues up in my head talking bout "this is the true love we're making?"
"THIS IS TRUE LOVE MAKIN'" Never gets old =)
Capcom vs SNK 3!
Please, CAPCOM!
LOL THE "IT WAS A GOOD DAY JOKE" took me a second.
O'Shea Jackson is Ice Cube's birth name.
Pleasantly surprised to see this game in tournament. I might be in the minority but I have always believed this series was way better than Marvel Vs Capcom. Wish they made Capcom Vs SNK 3
LIKE A old times th-cam.com/video/djcw5R4EQ30/w-d-xo.html
We need this game on Xbox Series X/S and ps5 with Cross play now!!!
It was the first online fighting game for the Xbox
I cannot roll cancel to save my life but I still want to learn how to play this game one day. I live watching cvs2
just use K style and not worry about it
domination by bas. what a legend
"That's why he chose the sponsor Coates"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
*a true gem. man oh man.*
Never saw game with a tournament, really liked this game when I played it.
I had no idea this game was at evo! Hopefully we'll see it again!
Players seriously using S-Groove and P-Groove now? I'd say they're crazy, but given they reached top 4, they gotta be onto something...
Dr.B has always been an S-Groove player
Not really. Just not many people playing, so you can pick wack shit and still get far.
Certain characters are pretty decent with those
I'm not versed on this game at all. What does all the different grooves mean or do?
@@Ronldbx6 Each groove has different gameplay mechanics tied to it. S-Groove allows you to charge meter, side-dodging and so on, while P-Groove is like SFA3's X-Ism, which allows only 1 special but higher attack if I recall correctly.

Best game ever!!!!!!!!
Bas wasn't too happy with his performances this Evo, but that final round in CVS2 was some vintage whoopass!
Lack of oxygen from the diapers being forced on them by the wokies
The magnitude of rooster in this game is serious love this game so nostalgic
th-cam.com/video/djcw5R4EQ30/w-d-xo.html
CvS2 and MvC2 were the peak.
We’re back !!!! Tournaments finna be on the rise in 2025
Best soundtrack fighter ever
35:00 love for the fgc sportsmanship
Always love to see some PTF
Dr. B doesn't sleep, he waits.
Really cool that top 4 all used different grooves! goat game
BAS is such a beast!
BAS is on another level in this game.. Him and Gian are the best in the world by a large margin
Best fighting game ever made
This game is amazing when viewed as SF Alpha 4.
As an SNK game ... its sad how nerfed 90% of their cast is.
That Yamazaki was on fire 🔥
Dr B always gets to grand finals; good shit Dr B!
D44bas cvs2 and 3rd strike kuroda two of the most iconic player in their perspective games.
maybe is just me but Millionaire fighting is the best fighting game crossover around :)
Only th-cam.com/video/djcw5R4EQ30/w-d-xo.html
BAS performed an OVC (One character victory) with Blanka.
Snake Eyes caliber right here.
This game could use the point system to make the games more fun to watch it gets boring when you see the same characters over and over again but well played by everyone in the video
No ecape th-cam.com/video/djcw5R4EQ30/w-d-xo.html
The level of tech in this video omg 😱
Como os caras jogam muito no modo A, vários combos animais 😮👏👏
Aquele Combo do Blanka na final foi inacreditavel
th-cam.com/video/djcw5R4EQ30/w-d-xo.html
Bas till this day plays CVS2. This guy was the Daigo of CVS2 back then.
this is true love we making all the time

Everybody gangsta until Dictator starts painting those fences
Best game to spectate.
Bas is a CVS monster.

Bas is amazing with A Yama.

6:01 This is the kind of shit I came here for!!!
16:15 WTF!?! Wow!
34:05 What a round!!! Awesome way to finish loser's finals!!
Are they playing on a Dreamcast?
What setup did they use for the tournament? Is this fightcade with scanlines or are they using a ps2 running through something like a RetroTink 5x up scaler?
Best game ever!
Oh damn!! I play Kilomax on fightcade! Cool
Bro I need answers. Is Onikage a Tenchu reference?
That was so good!
BAS was here, it was a fight for second place for the rest of the world.
令和になってサドマゾ始動見れたのは感動した

What are either the ratio and handicap for??
ratio is when you choose how many characters you will use, having three will have low hp but you got three different characters, you can also use one or two characters with more hp, having only one is straight up a boss lol
And handicap is in almost every fighting game, you can choose to have an advantage or disadvantage, no one uses it though
What console are they playing ? Or is it pc ?
Capcom vs SNK
Bas is the final bas!
In need this game to be playable again
I hope one day you guys do an EO tournament lol
I wish this game had more characters that are not part of King of Fighters' Orochi Saga:
K'
Maxima
Kula
Krizalid
Jhun Hoon
Clone Zero
Igniz
Ramon
Vanessa
etc.
Is the PS3 port just as good as dreamcast? Do they have that going into a CRT?
Fightcade is the only way I can practice and play this game online?
BAS wins Free every evo. He does it so he gets his plane fair back. So essentially it’s good for him to get a free trip. And play and win money matches and pick up the odd retro title awards.
Free trip plus he gets to gamble at the casino and eat some Good food
In competition play can you use custom grooves
I used to play this game on my Dreamcast when I was a kid. I had no idea its still played and cherished by lots of people.
In what platform are they playing CVS2 ?
were masks mandatory at this EVO this year>?
so fun
19:10 short hop as well as the parry was from "New Generation" not 3rd Strike🤦🏾♂️
It really annoys me that they never made a number 3 of this game
How can I play this game now a days? I had it for the GameCube back in the day. Now I have a PS5 and I want to play this game! Is there anyway to play it?
PC through emulator…
Xbox Series trough emulator
Nice one
En qué plataforma lo juegan?
DC-HDMI
How do you play this on PC?
Luv tht fighting game! Which will release on Nintendo switch n online mode!
Por que bison tiene el nombre de vega?
