    Feels like Balrog is getting away with murder with all those focus attacks. Wonder if it's going to get shutdown in the next match(es?) or if he'll continue to surprise with it
    He used it to good effect, although not quite as much, on Friday. So we'll see how Infiltration's notes are today. Especially after the lovers quarrel between Infiltration and Laugh. Does infiltration do his own notes or use his best buddy for the updates?

    A gen in top 8 at all is amazing let alone a gen winning the winners bracket.

    Xian played an absolute blinder.

    Hahahaha Good shit for Wiz accepting it and being a good sport with how much he hates Anime.

    It's no McRib but he'll take it.

    For anyone who doesn't get the joke:

    Wiz threatened to never have anime back at EVO because he was promised a waifu and didn't get one.

    And the extended clip to boot! Ricki-Oh for fifth character in Ultra SF4.

    I don't know when he did it, but Mr. Wizards twitter icon is now the illuminati symbol.

    It makes sense, really.

    A lot of the best competitors were playing Akuma, and Gen curbstomps Akuma for half his life off of basically anything.

    Not to discount the fact that Xian was playing near perfectly with one of the most mechanically challenging characters in the game.

    Oh god the emotion from Seth and James.

    I think they provided the best commentary for the entire event. It was knowledgeable, technical, avoided bias most of the time, and felt really even and professional. It didn't stir up a lot of hype but I was really impressed.

    SF4 finals were really good. The Hakan moment was by far the coolest. Still think the KOF finals were the highlight of the year, though.

    Also, very much looking forward to Ultra SF4. I wish Q, Karin and Haggar had been among those added, but Elena and Hugo are cool in their own right.

    Here's the link for the Day 3 stream - 12 hours and 48 minutes of finals goodness
    http://www.twitch.tv/srkevo1/b/430438070

    That's a lot to look through, we'll see about linking some individual matches later.

    Given that three of the four new characters are all from Final Fight, I wouldn't bet against Haggar being the secret fifth character. After all, he hasn't been in a proper Street Fighter before and they can modify his moves from MvsC3 to fit SFIV. They'd have to make a new model for him, but that's okay because they're likely saving money from the other four characters being ported over from X Tekken.

    Given Capcom's past history of laziness the 5th character is obviously Morrigan.
