/ourguy/ Xiaohai.

Should we add a link to Oswald trailer in OP for next thread or nah?

why wasn't it done already
also
>redbull
goddammit
even rockstar is better
and it has a strange gummy aftertaste

The Oswald trailer is already in the OP.

The Ultimate Iorifag

Just tuned in, what have I missed?

You're just in time. The first match is up: Xiaohai vs. Bridget

Just started m8

Kula is a mistake.

Benimaru is the true mistake.

>Yuri perfects Xiaohai's Beni
BRUH

First match of top 8 and already threw me to the edge of my chair.

>chinese stream has more views
>is also slightly ahead

They will tune in for Xiaohai, only Chinese player in top 8.

>that Yuri comeback
bruuu

The dream is over snkbros.

XIAOHAI IN LOSERS
CHAIRMAN MAO REPORTEDLY SPINNING IN GRAVE

KILL THE BENIMARU'S, KILL THE KULA'S AND KILL THE YAGAMI'S

>Just tuned in.
>Xiao Hai already in losers
Holy shit boys, I'm not prepared for this wild ride.

We demand 3.0 patch for grand finals.

Please do NOT kill Kula. She is a very fair and honest character.

yo why is chat so horny over KOF girls? Keep it in /neog/ guys

protip: most of those people don't even know this thread exists

I know man I'm playing.

I'm reminded again how much fun KoF is to watch.

>XiaoHai vs ET might happen in loser's semifinals
Wew. The skill level this time is insane.

benimaru fest

Isn't he getting nerfed?

Fuck off Kulafags, K' got buffed

Xiaohai Dont fucking dare to lose again !

>K' got his 1.0 combo back
>Kinda

>he can actually convert reliably in neutral now
>kyo, Iori and Benimaru getting nerfed

Delete Kula!

>still bringing up the xiaohai thing
>"You don't talk shit to hellpockets"
>articles made a big deal about it
>some leave out he was only replying to hellpockets' banter because of their rivalry he was pushing
>hellpockets' saying how he'd take out xiaohai ever since that one tournament that had the ring for top8 (forgot which one was)
Nah, they're both idiots for how people reacted to everything. Hellpockets thinking "lore" would get more people to go to tournaments (mentioning it and pushing the rivalry in the SDR cast) and Xiaohai for getting cocky. In the end it didn't even benefit tournaments much.

EVO 2017 now!

M' lives.

Time for the Vegas rematch.
IN LOSER'S

Never

ET busting out Zarina?

ET using Zarina, what.

Something I have noticed, why do the english speakers try to make it seem like there's some sort of rivalry between players (commentators)? I don't see this quite as much from commentary in other languages. We all know that these guys actually get along pretty well.

>Best command normal in the game
>Bonkers damage with meter
ET's got some secret Colombian tech somewhere.

LOL OK I DIG IT

ET HYPE ET HYPE

>can hear chinese commentary in the background

holy shit I'm shaking
GG

This match was soooo good snkbros.

REVENGE COMPLETE
VEGAS AVENGED

That was the best KOF set of 2018 so far. My heart

DAT XiaoHai comeback
WEw man, the dude has insane skills. My fucking respect.

m` is really a good counterplayer to xiaohai
his defensive play is incredible

M' DEFENDS THE HOMELAND

I'm still sad for ET

/ourguy/ lost but his matches were so fucking good.

So close

M' protecting Nipon

>Japan legend
>Taiwan legend
>Hong Kong dude who plays fucking XII
>Not even XIII
>XII

This is my first time watching KOF, are high level matches always this good?

Yes, my dude. Top-level KOF is insane to watch.

he would have been smarter to just play the clock and not aggress him
just run and block and punish if xiao makes a mistake and he probably would have given how m` managed to get xiao to accidental activate twice

Is this top 8?

Yes. We're watching winner's finals right now.

C-can you repeat that again sir

GG xaioHai, he fought to end like a legend.

>Give the Hong Kong player the flag for China

Lau plays '02 and XII. Even Gatoray had to look him up.

I can't believe this but Lau might won the whole thing lol

JUST ROLL
AND cr.C

my heart can't take the hype

How far did Xiohai get to?

Loser's semis. He beat ET (who busted out Zarina and almost got him) before falling to M'.

Glad that Commie got sent home.

We ain't even in grand finals yet. That was winner's.

Don't even think about it!

You got it chief.

RIP Japan
Taiwan vs. Hong Kong grand finals.

Rip China.

Don't watch or play KoF, but that top 8 was amazing.

Grats to Bridget bringing it home for Taiwan.

Was Japan top 8 better than Vegas top 8?

That was a great top 8

Skill level felt higher.

Don't know, but I feel like EVOJapan grandfinal was a bit underwhelming. Xiaohai/ET/M' matches were more hype.

>Beni didn't win and is getting nerfed.
I love this game.

Eh, people will just bitch about whichever character ends up being top next. Happened with Love Heart, Nakoruru, Robert, Leona, Kula to some extent and even K' at one point. Question is who? Any guesses?

Hard to say.

I just think that Xiaohai vs ET almost gave me a heart attack, but the first matches were too dominant with 2-0 everywhere

Biggest suprises of top 8
>Anchor Mature doing work
>ET busting out Zarina (specifically for Xiaohai)
>Lau, in general

ZJZ destroying Lau with his Point Mature bust have been disheartning

Just like Lau OCVing M' with Billy

Shame about the lack of Heroines footage
