AKA TGB2007, this is a Chinese tournament that has heavy focus on kofs but also has a couple of other games. For this year’s tournament, players from 4 other asian countries are participating as well.
the official website: http://www.tgbcn.com
Here’s the thread with the brackets for all the games. All the players’ names are color coded to show their respective nationalities. Red = China, Pink = Japan, Navy = Taiwan, Light Blue = Korea, Maroon = Hong Kong
Black names are probably the Chinese spots. The Chinese players written in red with the “TGB” stamp on them were probably given the spot without having to play in the tournament.
Here’s the quick rundown of the tournament schedules.
5/3 - Kof98 - Chinese national
Kof2002 - Chinese national
5/4 - Initial D ver.3 - Chinese national
Street Fighter 3 3rd Strike - International
5/5 - Kof2002 - International
5/6 - Kof98 - International
As for the notable players, I heard and read the Chinese guy ?? (Dakou?) is godly in kof98. From Japan, Ino and MOV are attending for 3s and Kyabetsu is going for KOF. From Korea, A-ryu and DB is playing in the 3s tourney. I don’t know enough about HK and Taiwanese players to list them let alone the fact that I can’t read most of their names.
There’re also supposed to be kof team battles as an event, probably on the last day. My Chinese skills are as good as the webtranslators get and common sense, so if anybody else can elaborate, that would be awesome.
Today was the Initial D and 3s tournament, and I haven’t heard any news on who placed what. Does anybody know where to get all the latest updates as the tournaments are going down?
