FighterZ has at least another year in it. Saturday game with 100k+ viewers isn't anything to scoff at.Granblue is gonna knock FighterZ out of there.
SamSho is a lock after this year (like BBTag was after last year)
Your powers are infiniteI guessed the victors of shamsho, tekken 7, dbfz' and mk11 right.
Im now an fgc expert.
Smash is honestly the only fighting game I play because I suck too badly at more traditional ones, and the differences in mechanics means I can do ok in Smash where I'm utterly terrible at stuff like Street Fighter or Dragon Ball FighterZi have to be honest, i suck in fighting games, never play them and overall not interested, so i never watched EVO before...BUT MAN a friend of mine make me watch this smash ultimate final and i was instalnty hooked, i jumped, screamed like this was a soccer game, cheered that mexican guy, THAT COMEBACK OMG, that was amazing, i really enjoyed it, so much talented players...now i cant wait for next EVO
For the record theres no reason Smash 4 should've been saddled with two stocks when Brawl had three
People were too stubborn in their ways
Smash 4 with 3 stocks would've been fine with many matchups, but there were a few characters that tended to drag games out to time a lot even at 2 stocks, and with 3 stocks I feel like any match with those characters would be very liable to end in time which would be problematicFor the record theres no reason Smash 4 should've been saddled with two stocks when Brawl had three

Two Stocks were also standard on For Glory so it made it easier for players to adapt and people didn't let go even when it was clear S4 was volatile afFor the record theres no reason Smash 4 should've been saddled with two stocks when Brawl had three

Dude, that Smash finals was awesome. I have never really been into Smash tourneys but this was hype as hell. Felt like every game was close. I can see myself watching more Smash Ultimate tourneys now that I got a taste.

While impressive, let's remember Lima won Smash 4 last year with 17, so it's not quite the record.Reminder that MKLEO is only 18 and won smash EVO. This is nuts.
My excitement is boosted to new levelsDamn... That was definitely some Good Ass Tekken (TM) Numb TheeFanatic
In fairness, winning ultimate this year is way more impressive than Smash 4 last year for multiple reasonsWhile impressive, let's remember Lima won Smash 4 last year with 17, so it's not quite the record.
I think DBFZ has a good chance to be dropped.Before I go to bed I want to say great tournament top to bottom.
As for 2020, I don't see any major changes to the lineup, mainly given that we are inching towards the end of the generation.
Locks:
Street Fighter V
Tekken 7
Smash Ultimate
Dragonball FighterZ
Mortal Kombat 11
Soul Calibur VI
Probably Safe:
Blazblue Cross Tag Battle (I only hesitate just in case Guilty Gear releases early next year, but with 2.0 coming out in November this should stick around for at least one more year)
Wild Card:
Samurai Showdown
Under Night in Birth
We will probably see at most two changes to the lineup. KOF XV doesn't have a release window so unless someone pulls a Mortal Kombat (announces in December, releases in April) there won't be a new game in the field. Any changes would have to come with already released games.
Either way goodnight my friends and game on! Maybe this time I will dedicate myself to getting better at Street Fighter
for smash, not really.Reminder that MKLEO is only 18 and won smash EVO. This is nuts.
Never said that but aight lol.Absolutely no way. Great numbers for a non Sunday, interesting fun personalities with great storylines, more characters incoming.
People should stop pretending Fighterz is dead
What piece of media is this wonderfully overdramatic eagle from?
Whew, good EVO with some solid announcements!
Lol @ them excluding Infiltration from the ending package.
Good
GG won't be out, but Granblue Fantasy will be. Soul Calibur and BBtag are the most likely games to get dropped for it.Honestly this was a great EVO - every top 8 was hype that I watched and plenty of great matches all around.
What game will they remove for GG? Blazblue is getting the 2.0 patch, SamSho had a great showing so maybe UNIST?

Next version of Under Night is coming next year too. My bet is MK11.Honestly this was a great EVO - every top 8 was hype that I watched and plenty of great matches all around.

Wait, you actually did not type this as a joke post?Next version of Under Night is coming next year too. My bet is MK11.
Wondering about the same thing ...
Real shame because sc6 top 8 was fucking greatI'd say SoulCalibur 6 is more of a wildcard than SamSho. Sadly, not a lot of people are into SC6 :(
The tournament platform online
...yeah, I forgot MK was a Warner Bros. joint, never mind. SoulCal it is, then.
NRS puts big support in every year, plus there will be an MK movie either that just came out or or will be coming out. MK 11 has only been out since April. SoulCalibur will be there too, I would happily put money on it. Bandai/Namco puts interest into it plus we will have Season 2 in full swing. SamSho will be bigger than ever especially with things happening like Justin dropping out of Street Fighter mid weekend to put effort to SamSho as well we multiple EVO champs in the mix. Anime games will take the hit. There is no way that there would be DBZ/UN/Granblue/BBxTag all on the official stack. Just my opinion of course but I feel safe with it....yeah, I forgot MK was a Warner Bros. joint, never mind. SoulCal it is, then.
Why does every keep saying granblue is simple? What does simple mean anymorePersonally, I think Granblue has a LOT to prove before being declared EVO worthy, pretty graphics alone don't cut it. So far the game is looking a bit too simple to remain interesting in the long term.
And yes, I'm aware that simplicity is also Samurai Shodown's bread and butter, but when done in that incredibly tense way, it leads to a very interesting game (good showing this year, shame about the sea of Genjuros, but balancing patches can fix that issue). Granblue, so far, feels like a much simpler Guilty Gear with less interesting characters.
Of course, the game isn't done yet, so all of that could change. I personally would love to eat some delicious crow for being wrong here, but so far I'm not convinced.
MK is absolutely a guarantee. As is DBZ.Aside from SFV, Tekken and Smash I don't really think anything can be considered a guarantee for next year. A lot of games did well in entrants this time but a lot can happen in a year. I hope UNI can pull off a second run at least.
