I think what Michael Murray is saying is that even if the game came out for everyone at the same time, it wouldn't change anything. Primarly because of the korean and japanese competitive scene. It's just a completely different environment. They would still be at the top regardless. They still have a very strong offline arcade scene which makes a huge difference.
EchoFox grand finals are tiring to watch, sure. What do you want to do? Ban JDCR and Saint? Of course not. You get better than them. And one way to get better than them is to have sponsors send players to more international events. Why isn't ITS, PG or any of the other western sponsors sending their players to Asian tournaments? EchoFox sends JDCR and Saint to every fucking tournament under the sun and get constant tourney experience. Meanwhile, other sponsors barely sends players to half of tournaments. Is it any wonder everyone else constantly loses?
brightsuperstition that and other korean players havent gotten sponsored yet. If there were a few more non-echofox koreans im sure one of them would dethrone JDCR and Saint.
Well man it could be a money issue. Echo Fox is backed by Rick Fox so they have money to blow. Not every sponsor is fortunate to have that kind of cash flow. I understand what you're saying, however you have to consider the money aspect of this.
Koreans are the best in several esports and it kills the game everytime. Their skill is undeniable but they are terrible at putting on a show. Its not their fault, but its part of why esports can=nt go mainstream.
Respect to Tekken all day, but i remember watching bracket numbers drop 4 months into Tag 2 back in 2013, and ONLY pro level players had minor issues with the tag systems here and there. everyone else left simply because they thought the game was "too hard". always sucks seeing more ppl playing simpler games EVEN when the game is wack like SFV when something like Xrd/KOF14/KI exists. Yet, Marvel 4/SFV are still being embraced by the fgc and those other titles dont sell well. that proves barrier of entry needs to be addressed in alot of FGs to keep impatient new players from dropping out too soon.
Are they gonna patch the PS4 lag? Can we start a petition or something to fix PS4 lag? Is it possible? Sure EchoFox yawn finals is killing tekken to some degree, but whats also killing it is the fact that no one wants to play high execution characters. I would watch more pina coludas if JDCR played Hei once in awhile, at least it would mix things up. People may whine about mishima op but theyre fun as hell to watch, Qudans ewgf for the win was one of the sickest moments in recent tekken memory (outside of every jimmy j match)
Man that is really bad that Echo Fox employees are Mods on the TEKKEN channel and use their power to silence lighthearted jokes about the team. They are hijacking the world tour and other Namco assets in order to promote their brand. Namco should be extremely concerned about allowing a sole team to decide who can and can't comment in their stream. This is an even worse form of COLLUSION than pot splitting. AJ is guilty of doing exactly what he is crying about and should probably resign as a team manager if he thinks its his job to decide who can be a fan of the entire game and tournament.
Aris joked about collusion and Echo Fox started banning people from the NAMCO stream. This is the guy who managed EG, the most notorious colluders in the entire FGC. He is abusing Namco assets to promote his own brand which is itself collusion. Echo Fox does not own the Tekken channel or the franchise and should have absolutely no say over who is allowed to talk about the game.
sponsorships are more about personality and the way they carry themselves in the public eye if anything else. I've seen subpar players get sponsorships because of their fun personalities. Quite honestly, Anakin doesn't really have a personality that would just make getting a sponsorship so simple. That's just my two cents though.
MYK fixated on those 8000 copies lolol
Beel never fucking moves half the time I look down at his window I think the videos frozen but then I see him blink 😂

Yeah why don't these other Koreans get sponsored? Like dat I don't have to see JDCR and Saint all the damn time.

25 minutes before beel says a word; and only then when rip calls on him to respond to a settled point.
Getting better at these podcasts RIP, good stuff.
SCR had such great matches, but all the technical issues were such a huge bummer.
Also, fuck POS4 and it's fucking lag. I'm still not over that

BL is a Legend of a Man lmaooooo
I think since he dropped out, speed kicks should of been in top 8. I mean, he got 9th. I think that's fair
They should sponsor Jimmy, he misses too many tournaments :/ I hope he makes top 5 in the final list
Soul stone is probably to play another 2/3 or 3/5 after you lose.
Need to start covering that Blazblue and talking more about DBFZ.. those are the next hype games #AnimeIlluminati

Yep, waiting for early 2017 Tekken 7 release sucked. For tournament players and casuals.

Tekken 7 > SFV > iPhone game > sewage > MvCi.
I reckon Princess Ling is better than Speedkicks.
Anora L he's#4 and Speedkicks is #2, pause the video and look at it closely.
Yeah, you're right. It's just my personal opinion. That's all.
