Stop randoming stages!
cant help it, I'm too accustomed to going straight to random after character select. Gotta get used to switching it up when you're in the lobby haha

lol tekken is dead? I hope Kor's tekken academy is happy! From what I heard they were the most vocal about not going to evo because of various issues.
Injustice is pretty low as well.

There has always been a gap between the two big games vs the rest. With the inclusion of smashers which for the most part was its own scene outside the FGC, its no wonder that they shit on some games in terms of entrants.
The biggest shocker is
1) Injustice losing to KI (lol really?)
2) BBCP bigger than expected ( I expected 300-400)

Holy fuck at nearly 2k for USFIV.
Grown by about 500 people since 2012. It's a bit hard to find earlier stats though.

I'd love KoF to be back for Sunday finals once more because they were so fucking hype, but with the numbers and KI being a new game with bigger numbers even if only slightly, I just can't see TTT2/Injustice/KOFXIII not being friday/saturday finals with the remaining 5 being sunday's event :/
I'm disappointed mostly as someone going to Evo since honestly last year it was easy to not even be aware that the friday/saturday finals were even happening since everything else was still in progress (even worse for MK which wasn't even on the main stage iirc)
Moneyhat Tier

I have a feeling KI, BBCP, UMVC3, SF4 and smash will all be on final day.

Only question is BBCP. I still think it'll be on a previous day alongside MK9 finals.
I heard that KOF pools are starting on Saturday. I dunno if they'll squeeze the whole tourney on that day, but who knows

Kinda cool that so many people were able to get off of work to play Tekken.
Confirmed for Sunday. I can't see KI getting Sunday over KOF.
Wow, I'm surprised at Injustice being lower than Killer Instinct and The King of Fighters XIII.
I'm surprised at the number of entrants for Killer Instinct.
Also surprised at Ultra Street Fighter IV's numbers, but not really either.
This is however the biggest tournament ever.
The total pot is almost $30k with the bonus.
BlazBlue Chrono Phantasma numbers might've been better if Arc System Works and Aksys announced the bonus earlier.
I doubt it did any good in attracting more people, since most probably couldn't change their plans this late.

new game, xbox main system swap, and bonus? I don't see why not. I mean there are probably other factors as well.

KI is a newer game and has more entrants even if just barely. It's either not gonna be on Sunday either (can't see KoF on Sunday like this) or it'll be the first finals of the last day.

I'd be pretty surprised if it isn't featured quite heavily on the final day. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for holding the finals on Thursday morning, in New York, at somebody's apartment building.
But I think it'll get a bit more prestige attached to it.
BBCP numbers are surprising. Quite solid.
Marvel refuses to die, still managed to get over 1000 players. SF's entrants are staggering.
The other numbers aren't really surprising.
Next year Marvel will finally drop below 1000 entrants but its cool it went 4 years at EVO with 1000+ entrants.

Marvel pools > other pools in terms of craziness. You get the intial, WTF teams, the inventive setups, the wacky synergies, combos and xfactor comebacks.
I still remember point Phoenix.

There's a bit of a trade off with this tho. Usually, the few hours of stream before noon have the potential to be incrdibably boring because all these pot monsters are getting demolished by the pros. And even the dudes with the stuff you listed above almost never end up winning against the established opponent
Early sf matches on the other hands. Some crazy intense matches. From last year
-Haitani almost losing to that crazy sagat player (tiger shaan or whatever)
- wolf krone vs itabashi with one of the most intense matches I've ever seen
- dogura losing to floe, I think

wow this is the year of anime for evo, biggest prize and a good increase on entrants
That was harsh, but at least he didn't insult us again. =D

Always cool to see the Melee guys putting in that work considering the stuff that happens between them and the rest of the community.
Mahvel still holding on to that 2nd place and Blazblue representing dat anime

So basically, throw a play-by-play commentator on and you'd be alright in conjunction.

Pretty sure the late addition to the roster hurt TTT2's numbers, though probably not a ton. That said, as a fan of the game there is much to look forward to.
