COOPERATION CUP 17 - Annual "Street Fighter 3rd Strike" 5-on-5 Team Battle Tournament [Live NOW]
- Thread starter Dreamboum
- Start date
Yesss my favourite event of the year. Guess it's time to get back to playing as Oro for the next few months
5 stages. single game waseda/pokemon style for round 1, round 2, top 8. single game 1v1 for playoff A and playoff B.
Round 1 is all 5-man teams are placed into 24 groups of 3 teams and play in a round-robin format. Once all teams have played in that group, the results are: 24 teams that are 1st in their group advance to round 2, 24 teams that are 2nd in their group advance to playoff A, and the rest are eliminated.
Playoffs A is a 24-man single game bracket for each team that placed 2nd in their group bracket in round 1. Each team must pick a single player for their team to represent them in the playoffs. its 1v1 the whole way. The single winner advances to Playoff B.
2nd round is the same thing as Round 1 with the winning teams of round 1 being put into 7 groups (commonly 6 groups of 3 and 1 of 4). the results are: 7 teams that are 1st in their group advance to top 8, 7 teams that are 2nd in their group advance to playoff B, and the rest are eliminated.
Playoffs B is a 8-man single game brackets for each team that placed 2nd in their group bracket in round 2 + the winner of Playoff A. Each team must pick a single player for their team to represent them in the playoffs. its 1v1 the whole way. The single winner advances to top 8.
Top 8 is the 7 winning teams of round 2 + the 1 winning team of Playoff B.

Which Obama is better, Barack or Majin? I legit can't decide.
The next SF OST needs more jungle.

The best Street Fighter event of the year.
MOV and Momochi are in as far as I know.
Yun team winning is the opposite of hype, but at least we don't have to look at Obama's ashy foot.
I dislike Yun, haha.
Ibuki team almost got to the top.
Who was Momochi's usual 3S main? It's not Yun if I recall.

haitani, mov, gunfight, momochi, and i guess vanao is playing sfv rog in japan now.
3S would be my favorite game, but it's just way too meter dependent. And the balance problems really limit the variety. People love the game because of the juggle combos and execution, but I don't fetishize that shit. At its best, it's the most read heavy game and that's why I love it. It's super flawed tho.

SF4 and SFV are both children of 3S. People compare the last two games to SFII and Alpha all the time, but those three games share the most mechanical DNA out of the whole franchise.
I'd say it's the opposite. It's the most option select heavy street fighter of all. Nowhere near read heavy
It is OS heavy, no doubt. It doesn't strike me as a very calculated and methodical game in practice at all, though.

The balance is fine. The game has such a high skill ceiling that you can win with any character if you put in the work.
This tournament is like the highest of high level so it's to be expected.
Though if Kuroda was still playing, he could probably OCV anyone with any character.
I won with Hugo the other day. Damn did I break the game?
Stop watching Japanese tournaments and play the game.
I play yo. Come get a piece of my green belt Elena on PS4 haha
I love the game. The shit just ain't balanced well.
Sei Elena just pulled off a smooth 3 character comeback for his team, tho. Even beat a Chun in the process.

God, I forgot how much fun it is to watch high-level Third Strike.
Wish I could play a quarter as good as these guys.

I don't think anybody is even allowed to pick Sean because you can only pick the character you registered with :(
