Apologyman should have a spot in there, considering he is the Southern Calfornia Regional reigning champion. I would put Cloud in there as well not for just for the sake of having a Zero team, but for being one of the best in USA imo.

Perfect Cali list:
Jwong
FChamp
Cloud805
Apologyman
Chris G

No offense to PR Rog or Neo as I think Wong and Champ play their respective teams (Wolverine/Pheonix) better than both of them.

Does anyone know what the air teching system is like in Xrd? P4A/BBCP style (button hold) or classic ASW stuff (button press)?
And did anyone mention if techs are grab vulnerable in Xrd?

You really want Cali to blow everyone up? And also, both Wong and Champ are wayyy better than the Daywalker and Golden Boy Free-o

I don't think they are going to Final Round.

Team Cali too stronk, but can only be countered (a bit) by team East Coast instead of teams NY, Baltimore, Jersey etc.

Team EC:
GreenAce
Yipes (Capcom Cup Yipes)
RayRay
Flocker
Flux (but I really like SomeBrownKid as well for that spot)


And PR/Neo are good too, both are OCV capable.

Thats very disappointing.

A couple of friends of mine told me that you can't hold to tech in Xrd. I'm pretty sure it's classic teching.

Flux is probably gonna call me out again on chat if he sees me but meh, its just an opinion. He shouldn't be on team EC, heck I was against Noel Brown last time he was put on time NY but he's proven himself to be a very smart player and should be in Flux's spot.

GreenAce is extremely solid and proficient with his combos. Yipes is Yipes, he's the hype man. Rayray is Yipe's student, done and said. Flocker is the EVO champ, can't argue with that. Then you have Flux... I have nothing to hype to say. I used to really like him when he first started out and was getting a name for himself at Ascension 2 years ago (or was it Summer something... I forgot) when he almost beat F. Champ but choked and Champ came back 3 matches on him. Ever since then, he has disappointed me, makes it top 8, omg itz de bezt, Flux is there, but that's all it is. The only thing I can give him is his meme, ANY AMOUNT!

I mean yeah, he'll be in Guilty Gear, just like guys like Dogura enter every year.
He will steamroll everyone as well, but I just don't think he really plays actively any more.

Thanks for reading my mind(except for the dogura part). Well, looking forward to some anime in evo!

Yeah, this is exactly what I expect. Still, he'll be there and you'll see stuff. Agreed his main stuff is BB though, probably my favorite player to watch play that game and it's incredibly exciting to see him stateside.

As long as N-O picks Venom and not Sol like he did in a bunch of a-cho's +R ranbats whenever he did play.

I haven't seen him play Xrd yet but I hope he picks it up to become best Venom again.

Did you change your name? I don't remember you but about a year ago I was by far the biggest flux hater in gaf. Even I have to admit he's got a lot better in the past year.

I hope the they reveal the fifth character on Sunday night when it's peak time for everybody to watch. Right before AE finals would be good.
There's no reason why they shouldn't do this, since they did it last week for the edition select trailer.
Too bad "peak time for everybody to watch" is "peak time for America": I'll be once again sleeping and missing all of the hype. :(
 
Don't think I'd ever say this but I'm getting bored of watching Marvel now and the Zero train running out peoples teams (plus all the hidden missile teams with mags). Mahvel really needs a patch..

While Fino is awesome, N-O was my favorite Venom player to watch. For BB, I'm incredibly biased, so he's definitely my favorite to watch in that game.
BBCP top 8 is gonna be so good damn
I hope US players are able to put up a decent fight though. US vs JPN in BB is usually as bad as Yume vs US in P4U.
Although I do want to see Grandia make it far too.

Wow, is this dude for real? lol
Anyway, Chaos Code is free on JP PS+, download it if you have the chance, game is awesome! There's a 15 day Plus trial on there.
But I've bought Marvel last week, and I am too addicted to that game to think on anything else! :)
Didn't have nothing to do at work yesterday, so I watched the full hour and a half fight between Filipino Champ and Cloud805, beautiful match!
