It entirely is possible to have no tournament experience and do well at Evo.
This years Evo was
literally my second live tournament ever and I made it to winners final playing on a system I have never played on before. I didn't have no lucky easy draw either. I had to play Mavrick, Amir, Damdai, Sirlin and Sin.
Thelo is also a predominantly online player and he made top 8.
With the advent of GGPO and how much better the net code in fighting games is getting, online play is not that far off from offline as people like to make it out to be.
