    I think the Blazblue Tournament will be interesting. I'd be highly shocked if Daigo loses the Street Fighter IV tournament.



    I'd be very interested in seeing Daigo or Justin play a match of Blazblue or Tatsunoko vs Capcom though. Just to see how there skills translate. I kinda wish Kof XII was there as well to to make the entire library of fighting games in 2009 available.



    But I expect people like the guy in this vid to be there than anything else.

    Can't wait to see how the american BB scene is shaping up. I'm looking forward to any exploits that have been discovered.

    @[ZTF]NSF Operative: Same here, I find it a bit disappointing that many American players seem to have the "let Japan figure out a viable way to use (insert move here)" mentality.

    On a lighter note, I have a feeling that Carl and Litchi will be more popular in America than they are in Japan.

    @Xmas in July:I hope not. Carl dosn't interest me at all, and Litchi is frustrating enough without alot of people playing her and finding some broken mechanic. What I want to see is something akin to Sol's old dust loop.

    @Hamburger-helper: Actually didn't know about that. I guess Carl does have a use after all.



    @Xmas: Yeah, I'm rather disapointed in the lack of skilled Ragna and Jin players.

    @BubbleF**kingBuddy: Tournament or no tournament, exploits like that ruin the point of fighting games. I knew Sol's dust loop, but I never used it...because it's not fun to win that way.

    Pray tell then, what is a "fun way" to win?

    @andresvelascocoll: Not using loops, that's what. Using loops to win at fighters is like winning at Pong without ever having to move the paddle.
