Evo Secret Cup for ST - nominate

[Apoc]

DreamTR and myself have a list of over 150 ST greats!!!

We need your nominees to condense this list in time for the ESC!!!

Who deserves the 24?

Let us know!

NKI, get at me if you can

[SaBrE]

apoc, rising from his grave!!!!

[EveryFlowerFlow]

the hero returns

[Saotome Kaneda]

RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE



I'll do you a favor and clean up your post lol Looks like you were a little too excited

[Jimmy Bones]

Cant wait to see this.

[NKI]

Could you maybe post up the full list that you and Dream compiled? For me at least, it would be easier to whittle that down to 24, rather than trying to come up with 24 off the top of my head. I don't want to forget anyone.

[megaultrasuper]

Givens:

Apoc and DreamTR (since it was their idea, and they are legends in their own right)
NKI
John Choi
Jason Cole
David Sirlin
Mike Watson

So it's really about whittling it down to 18.

My puny nominations?

Alex Valle and Seth Killian

[KING]

wouldn't 24 be a weird number for a tourny? why not 16 or 32? :confused:

is this a 90s list or something? Thanks for the consideration though. =)

[NKI]

Valle should be a given.

[Buktooth]

i vote for xbox pad antonio

... im not kidding

[DreamTR]

It does have to be 16, 32, 64 if you are talking perfect brackets...unless you are doing round robin madness!

[goodm0urning]

is this a 90s list or something?Yes. Now somebody go find Jeff Schaeffer.

Yes, I left off a grip of people, as well as old school legends like Osaki. Just going off the top of my head real quick of people who still play the game in some form or fashion and go to tournaments. Plus the OP asked for 24 players. :looney:

[Demon Dash]

Most notably......ME!!!!!! j/k

Sweet list, only one problem, why are you on it? teehee! I kid, I kid!

[Sabin]

Yeah, I would have to nominate r3ko on that list as well since clearly he's one of Europe's best in ST (going by BoD results).

i would nominate damdai and nohoho on that list as well but they arent going to evo this year I dont think. I don't think DSP is going either. Are the Japanese getting in on this as well?

either way, its gonna be interesting as fuck. GGPO/2DF definetely saved sf2 thats for damn sure. lots of new blood who are at least decent or og's who play other games (and play ST now that they have comp)

[DEMON_JIM]

Is this strictly USA?

Hmm my nominees (USA) would have to be in no particular order (sorry if it doesn't fill the 24)

This is also going by tournaments in the recent years of people who still play or else I would add Tomo and Jeff (don't know who is going to evo either).

Lots of other names I know of but couldn't think of. Oh well there was my crappy shot at this list.

-DJ-

[DS]

Yeah, nohoho and Damdai are easily on that list. nohoho has one of the best Blankas I've ever seen and have played against.

[poonage]

Obviously Rui_Massacre should be on the list . . .

[koogy]

if you don't include robin mizuno you're a FOOL

[Jumpsuit]

Whoa! This is like asking for a list of favorite movie quotes! So many good ones!

I'll compose my list and post it later tonight. Nice to see you're still alive, Apoc.

Tell DT+ I have more NWC goods if he wants'em :wgrin:

[Reset]

+1 Taiji and Mike Ross

[Rojo]

Reno.

[Tantin]

if you don't include robin mizuno you're a FOOL

Really?

...

Really?

[Jumpsuit]

These are ST players that I have played. There are other great "SF2" players, but when it comes to ST fanatics in particular these are the only ones I have ever faced in both tournament and casual play that are definitely worth mentioning. I also noted the characters that come to mind when I think of them :woot:

John Choi - N.Ryu/OG Sagat/Guile
Alex Valle - N.Ken, N.Ryu
Mike Watson - Boxer, N.Ryu
Graham Wolfe - Dhalsim/Boxer
Alex Wolfe - Dhalsim/Boxer
Jason Cole - Dhalsim
Jason Deheras - OLD Dhalsim
Jason Nelson - Dhalsim/Dictator
Afro Legends - DeeJay
NKI - Chun Li
James Chen - Cammy
Jason DT+ Wilson - Dictator/Zangief
Omar Deloney - N.Ken, N. Ryu
Apoc - Claw
Jesse Howard - OG Ken, N.Ken
Seth Killian - Boxer
David Sirlin - Dictator
Maxstah - Blanka/DeeJay/Fei Long
CigarBob - N.Ken
Crossover - E.Honda
Mike Creque - Cammy
Bob Painter - E.Honda
DSP - Claw
Rekka Ken - N.Ryu, Fei Long

Sorry if I missed anyone

[r3ko]

Yeah, I would have to nominate r3ko on that list as well since clearly he's one of Europe's best in ST (going by BoD results).


:wgrin:

Desk is now coming to Evo, along with the rest of the UK players. So we now have a viable 3 player Uk team for ST.

Ryan Hart, Desk and myself. Not sure Zazza would be interested. But maybe some exhibition between US vs UK could be interesting. I'll have to talk to them first though. US team could be the top 3/4 US finishers in the ESC?

[Bacardi]

snip


i cant get a honorable mention

[Apoc]

apoc, rising from his grave!!!!

wonder if im on that list =D prolly not

um...I'd call you one of the best in Az so, quit acting like deez nutz:P

If you or Neil show up, you're in even though you whine like a sissy and play crappy versions of the versus series!!

Best believe a UK team MUST be repped and these players? That's a killer!!!!

Don't pay attention to the randomness:P Just trying to give you an overview and NKI requested it so...here you go fellas.

13 years ago this list would've consisted of 20 peeps. Tell me the entire scene PLUS old skool didn't advance and catch a backfist like with Guile and no practice, SF coming to a halt...just another wack dis from a crack b*tch and folks like that are on the blacklist!

[TarkanX]

Good to see you back, Apoc. Will this ST tourney be on arcade (side-side)? Also, there a few that I think should be on there... JeRon Grayson, the Doyle Brothers, Antonio Carmona, David Spence, and there are a few MN players that are on Wes T., and Jesse Howard's level, like Hoam/Mr. Bob (don't know how that is pronounced), he works in Japan, but he is originally from Minnesota. Here is a clip of him in action (O.Ken): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TV6N4ghvhzY

[DreamTR]

There's some more people I added that did not make it on that just posted list (I kept remembering people) SO DON'T BE MAD FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOE =P

[SaBrE]

lol apoc, i hate you so much!!!!!!!! =D

r3ko: unfortunately zazza is not coming due to some personal issues. he originally was coming =( zazza is a straight beast at st now and its a god damned shame that he cant represent, in possibly, the last original st tourney =(
