This sounded so dumb but I am strangely hype for this.

I can't control it! SuperNiceDog RISES!

Yeah, this does feel more genuine than, say, The Tester or The Next Game Boss, because 1) it's all live streamed, not edited, and 2) a whole bunch of actual FGC members are involved in both participating and producing. Hell, they let racist jokes fly in the official Capcom press release that revealed the coaches. No way they would have even let Aris on this show if they were gonna try to keep it "clean" or "professional."

The two blogs that they've put out on Capcom-Unity are both pretty genuine and transparent too.

SuperNiceDog is a vicious breed and should be banned from further Guru contests.

Tag.

I've been hyped for this for awhile now.

Go Team SF! Grand Daddy Valle gonna lead them to victory.

Awh.. are they going to have recorded versions of the show? Darn timezones preventing me from watching this live.

Really? For all 15 hours? I think you can catch the archives just like any other stream unless they're doing something different. And I would think there would most likely be a highlight reel or something since nobody's going to watch every single hour.

Ikr... I keep expecting this to be like America's Next Top Model, but with Fighting game players.....

But the thing that I think is definitely a point to note is it's live and unedited. Reality shows always edit their **** so people come out looking like a certain way and this is actually more interesting for FGC because it feels more 'legitimate' I guess? Also Aris is ****ing hilarious.

Hornet practicing the same combo for like 10 minutes.

Valle (to Hornet): Still stuck on that combo?
H: Yeah
V: Do you think that's a practical combo?
H: Nah I don't think I"ll use it.

Dr Sub Zero and Renic are both 3S dudes, so that's sweet as well. I figured they'd be passing on them for bigger names but glad to see that's not the case. I've never heard of any of the Team Tekken people though.

Kor won EVO last year for Tekken, and I believe Bronson has also won an EVO, or if not he has at least placed high

Bronson never won EVO. I think he got 2nd and 3rd. But he won the national game championship or something.

I think the people talking in the stream are largely mentally handicapped

In the stream chat, you mean?

yup

reading that is a disaster, not going to keep doing that

Does anyone else's computer get really bogged down because of the Twitch TV chat?

I always have to pop out the video to watch it without lagging my Firefox.

Aris was getting owned by Mike Ross in SFxT on the cross the line show, it's was decided before it started.

LOL!!!! I hope that's a joke....names don't get more n00bish than that

We haven't seen Branson or 200Yen at all though, and I'm almost positive Aris did that on purpose

punishing the foul language is pretty silly. they don't seem to know their audience that well!

They just don't want it on the company name.
