EVO 2013 - Injustice - Top 8

EVO 2013 - Injustice - Top 8

[@relentlessohio7222]

20:02 Ultradavid: "He's not just a zoning superman or forward 2-3 superman" First thing he does is forward 2-3. Throws interactable. Another forward 2-3. You kidding me dude? ALL he knows how to do is forward 2-3 icebreath and zone laser.

[@InfinitiveShadow]

Injustice Starring Superman

[@MonkeyBiznessFGC]

This tournament was before a lot of patches. The past three Injustice tournaments have been incredible experiences, for real, better than EVO was. And I find EVO awesome, but negativity from the folks below me made me write this.

[@EdMaher90]

I wish I had a dollar for every time Ultradavid said a character has good mobility

[@MonkeyBiznessFGC]

Meterburn heavies absorbing 50% of damage really changed this game for the better.

[@TrixTrix228]

Why don't I feel annoyed when I see Green Arrow zoning but I do when I see Superman zoning?

[@ANG3Lx0fxD34TH1]

I agree with you on that it's probably because green arrow doesn't do large amounts of chip damage if you block it like superman.

[@calebboy16]

yeah green arrow doesn't do alot of dmg than superman. Superman dmg is ridiculous

[@ValkyrieOey]

Finally a tournament where every match isn't: BATMAN VS BATMAN. holy shit that gest annoying. And DAMN these guys are so fucking proo.

[@SSS7527]

TheMikesaur ***** gets*

[@FjeltThatBro]

SSS7527 lmfao

[@SSS7527]

***** Editing your comment so you don't look stupid. Classy.

[@Eajry]

Alex Alex Who are you? Nice 3 word intellectual response to an analysis of just how stupid you really are. Ignorance is bliss though I suppose. Sometimes I wish I was stupid as fuck, that way I would be completely oblivious to the fact of just how stupid I'd look when I try to act intelligent when the reality is I'm a common pleb that can discern who the conversation is about. But hey, you'll get there pal. Keep fighting for that GED level education, you'll maybe get it on your 12th or 13th try. Enjoy Taco-Bell, your home-away-from home life!

[@fredhuggins921]

This is the only way to pass the time until Injustice 2 comes out.

[@matthewgarcia3817]

Fred Huggins Frfr lol

[@Oh-Ben]

It wasn't any better

[@5TailFox]

Commentator hit it right on the head. Once dude couldn't use that sweep combo, Green Arrow wore his ass out. Cats have GOT to master more than one setup...

[@Cbruz]

Cara... Parabéns pelo seu trabalho, namoral mesmo!! Assisti todo do começo ao fim e foi muito massa a forma como você narrou tudo, tu tem futuro nisso, sério mesmo!! Parabéns, se pudesse, eu dava 500 likes

[@rehaozdenk7273]

Fck Superman spamming

[@Heisen-d3n]

most of chars as well

[@basedeal]

Reha Özdenk yo momma 😂🖕

[@Millimification]

Superman is pretty difficult to deal with. His poke with heat vision is hard to close on, and he ends up generating more meter than the opponent because they're stuck guarding. Even when you do close in, he's very strong at that range as well. The only real way to counter-play is to gap-close ASAP before his meter advantage becomes a huge problem when you close in.

[@FlavoursBeatle]

I still play this

[@BlueEyesMaster100]

Ok, I fucking love Superman major fan but the spamming and distance moves were pretty cheap

[@dielabtec7882]

The reason that i was disapointed from this evo was all of the superman this year they're gonna be a little bit les of them i gues becouse he got nerfed so hard

[@APallday96]

Thats all people do when I played em online with superman. So I just use martian manhunter or batgirl and teleport hit them while they try and do that cheap shit.

[@moodysobh]

why no bane? bane is too OP! watch acidglow on youtube and see how bane rolls!

[@RNS_Aurelius]

Bob Billybob Bane really isn't OP he's strong yeah but if you jump when he tries to use his command grab you get a full combo and when he's traits on CD it can be a game changer.

[@moodysobh]

Aches Is McLovin Oh man I hate it when my cousin uses batgirl! she's so freakin fast! In the corner he treats me like a bitch! Too much stabbing.

[@butta1080]

Man I love watching fighting game tournaments they are the best i love fighting games but hate playing them online but i can watch great fighters all day

[@garretthegamer1221]

i'm no fighting game expert but looks like most of these guys spam the same moves like the superman laser eyes

[@garretthegamer1221]

***** Kind of wish fighting games would do something about spamming. Yes i know you can block most of them but sometimes they just feel a little op.

[@joelcobb5796]

my advice is just don't play against spammers online unless it cant be helped...and of course unless its a tournament.

[@garretthegamer1221]

Joel Cobb only people who play online are the MLG people, and other people who got it when it was on sale. :P

[@ereledree]

GarretTheGamer I think that in a tournament they rather spam and win money instead of not spamming but losing.

[@Xurley12]

It's called zoning but it's honestly broken in this game, but in games like SF if you lose to some one who's zoning you need more practice.

[@JSPUFC]

I noticed this game is just about rehashing the same old combo until you win.

[@inFAMOUSBlastshards]

I don't know much about Injustice or other side scrolling fighters, but even I can tell that Superman's laser eyes are OP.

[@HeartlessProtocol]

Μπράβο παίδες! Πολύ ωραία ματς με Σουπερμαν. Στο Εβο 2014 να συνεννοηθείτε μεταξύ σας και να παίξετε όλοι με αυτόν, μόνο. Μην πάρει κανείς άλλο χαρακτήρα, μην χρειαστεί να δείτε τίποτα καινούριο... Όλοι κράζουν τον Κρις Τζι, αλλά είναι ο μόνος που έπαιξε με λόου-του-μιντ χαρακτήρα. Κοίτα που φτάσαμε ... Και δεν τσίπαρε τώρα όπως κάνει στο UMVC3 ...

[@geneva1999]

Does every player bring their own controller or do you have to use whatever controllers EVO provides? I want to go this year - anyone know if there is a big crowd for the Genesis and SNES console games like MK 1 and Street Fighter 2 in the bring your console section or is mostly just modern games?

[@Pain0rDeath]

KDZ's superman is top notch. best superman i've seen in Injustice by far.

[@broly5462]

Mine is better

[@Pain0rDeath]

@@broly5462 u right. mb

[@cpc1995]

People seriously need to stop complaining about Superman. If anyone's ever heard about Maximilian's theory, Superman was so good because of the Man of Steel movie. They were going to keep Superman strong as long as the movie was still relevant.

[@lessermook7608]

I love the sportsmanship between Slayer & Theo. Very good to see.

[@soad52815]

absolutely. he's got it all. something has to give.

[@adamzez]

It took me till the finals tk realize i was watching 2013. Fml

[@opgam3r482]

Back 22 string* correction... (the ball and chain string, without hitting the last back 3 so it can be done mid combo) Because the back 223 is a knock down similar to 2231...

[@bobbysnobby]

The fact that superman is so unhype he makes Kabal look hype should be worrisome to the fighter community.

[@violet-hc1ju]

This is why TEKKEN and Street Fighter will always be the greatest fighting games.

[@smartcheeks867]

OMG Chris G is so awesome....using characters that are not power makes him really skilled at this game. He's really good with characters like Batman and Green Arrow. He is what the definition of pro player is, not spamming losers using superman and black Adam.

[@jordanrutherford3771]

Chris G was using Black Adam.

[@smartcheeks867]

Jordan Rutherford Oh... Well at least he's good with other characters like Batman and Green Arrow lol

[@jordanrutherford3771]

smartcheeks867 Batman is also another high tier, there are a LOT of good Batmans. Chris G is mostly praised for using Green arrow.

[@smartcheeks867]

Damnit. Then uh... at least he doesn't spam like some players here! Well, a bunch of other players at evo do that too... yeah just ignore my first two comments lol.

[@MrZattack101]

21:00 that heat vision game doe

[@xKingx16]

.-. one thing that weirds me out still, Why does MK9, look better and it came out way before this? I'm speaking from a graphic standpoint,character texture and etc, hell I think even MKvsDCU had smoother looking characters, Injustice is awesome don't get me wrong,but during the cut scenes it looks kind lazy. I think they should have put in as much love as they did with MK. none the less the combat is awesome,I hope they continue with the series at least,it's a good game,and i hate to see it slowly vanish.

[@DrahminsGooch]

I agree, Injustice is a great game but it doesn't look as good as MK9

[@panikk2]

It could have been an art direction that when side by side just didn't pan out. That's really all I can think of. I completely agree that mk9 is the better looking game (textures, effects, models)

[@SlowDownWaitASecond]

Im not sure if its worse, but its definitely not an advancement from MK9 at all. one thing i think they got right in this game were the sounds. every hit sounds powerful and heavy when they should, and light and quick when they should. it really makes every hit feel like it counts

[@187Wretched]

I agree, the colors in MK9 seem more vibrant too.

[@dgIG9508]

I think they didn't want to try and use the same character models cause MK9 and MK vs DC kinda had the same models and it looks like they started from scratch and maybe even rushed to get it done or their main focus was gameplay

[@nightwing_fan7034]

Peep the dude wearing the kingdom come Superman my favorite suit

[@TheRealMadSpartan]

I like how people dog on the Superman players who zone but never say crap about Green Lantern zoning.

[@jayghan]

I think there should be a no spam rule. Serious it would make the game more interest and allow for more clutch situations and high tech work to be employed

[@cedricbrown8745]

That super man vs dark Adam with Chris g was dope

[@remixmaster5000]

I give him props for using superman with skill and not spamming eye lasers. This isn't spamming its zoning. And he did more then just back 2,3 so yeah good job

[@BitterOblivion91]

Love the Green Arrow, Black Adam, Killer Frost, Green Lantern and Batman game play! Superman is my favorite character but I'm not fond of his game play design :/

[@RoastedPheasant]

It's so bizarre hearing commentators trying to speak positively and talk about the genius strategy of run away and spam.

[@adolphinler6628]

you should realize that all the players are here to win not for fun

[@mctwist13]

some people dont understand PROFESIONAL gaming

[@grumpypoof9648]

RONIX_NW And some people can't even spell "professional" correctly. We all have our faults eh?

[@hhTHEBOSSANATERh]

Because pro players can get around zoning(spamming as u put it)unlike u

[@MrHeyImyou]

I cant believe I'm hearing that superman is overpowered... Oh wait.......... its superman........

[@opgam3r482]

Even though Aquaman got meaningful Nerfs as well, the universal down 2 made him a bit better with such a high hitbox for Supes in the air... but the real reason is the water shield for some reason absorbs Superman's zoning. I don't know why but there's no chip. If a DjT88 composed player was playing Aquaman I think they'd have a slight advantage over Green Lantern in terms of Superman match ups...That jump arc too. so good

[@0riginalxx0utlaw]

Pro gaming: Spamming as fast as humanly possible.

[@danielmcadam2879]

I'm an average gamer and I understand very little of this shit, lol

[@tefranger]

people need to stop complaining about superman. His lazers are easily punished, his wakeup options are terrible, and he doesn't have many mixup options. as soon as you get superman on his back, its pretty much game over. If his lazers are that big a deal to you guys, then just learn a counter pick. like black atom, or martian manhunter. I personally find his lazers easy to deal with.

[@WarhawkX86]

The only reason superman is powerful is because his lasers GAIN meter rather than stagnating it. That one change would make him have great distance game without giving him meter for spamming lasers for free. Also Aquaman is equally broken btw.

[@TheAisar87]

When do the exciting matches start? First 3 matches were pretty bad.

[@shizeeque]

that DJT face. ^_^ This game is so hype, too bad I was not into cybersports back in 2013.

[@NightmareSnake]

That Batman tho

[@aPenguinWarrior]

What's with all the stuff before their names? Sorry, new to the pro stuff.

[@sharkeysamuel]

even the crowd hates when they use superman lol

[@BlueHouseX]

the heat vision alone makes superman OP

[@tefranger]

i actually didn't know that.. wow. I'm glad that there are other enthusiasts out there that tell me this stuff. I'll be taking those mu's now a little more seriously I suppose.

[@Duster29to86]

anyone know if this will come over to the xbox one?

[@EbonMaster]

Where the hell are you getting those numbers? No game had 1 million concurrent viewers. The highest was a bit under 150k.

[@Bounze641]

Chris G and KDZ are awesome players ♥

[@Dbreezy229]

Exactly I run into Superman all the time online and i kick his ass all the time with my wonder woman

[@theforestero]

When the world's economy's collapse;Retro tournaments with Snes fighting games, and PS 1's will be super sweet.All personalized webcams and shit, block parties

[@AveMcree]

your joking right? ssf4ae and umvc3 were the most viewed games at evo..... smash wasnt even close to 1mil

[@worldforger6456]

ban superman we should

[@adolphinler6628]

superman is not op

[@Freefork]

+A Dolphinler He isn't fun to watch though...

[@Heisen-d3n]

did they ban deathstroke ?

[@jibikao]

Superman's Laser seems a bit too powerful considering his close range attacks are very strong as well?

[@a.a.5386]

they shuld fix superman or ban him from tournament cos the amount of trash player is too much with it

[@RagingKarma2]

Honestly Injustice is the super smash brawl of the games by nether realm. It really should not be pro matches. It sort of haves that feeling of more characters are just straight up better than others like aqua man, martian man hunter, and batwoman.

[@Mrchiken373]

Raging karma Are you saying brawl isn't competitive or Smash in general....?

[@RagingKarma2]

Tyler Jenson Brawl.

[@DaDinkler]

Raging karma Batgirl*

[@schuyler1212]

+Raging karma I disagree lots of other characters have been in top 8 I've seen every character make a top 8 except joker. This was injustice before the patch.

[@CatEar700]

This game call "Injustice",yep they didn't lie. .....

[@killadairoumkd]

asshole

[@kris852007]

Chris G with those shades tho

[@Danceofmasks]

It's a bit hard to say, since SF4 had about 120k on twitch, and a niconico restream which doesn't have a realtime viewer count (just total views).

[@georgesims1724]

Am I right in saying Godspeed commentated on injustice at MLG Anaheim?

[@xiNerdLordix]

I liked the green arrow fights the most

[@JustThankMe]

WOOO INJUSTICE, said, almost no one ever.

[@5TailFox]

Chrie G gave that last fight away. Once he got him to where his opponent had less health than him, he should've went back to his zoning game.

[@superskrull4479]

Teams spooky I appreciate the uploads.

[@ExzoSSG]

Anyone know what those glasses are called that Chris G is wearing?

[@megavolt67]

I don't think anyone else has pointed it out, but DJT actually took the first game from KDZ in winner's finals. Ultradavid clearly forgot about that when he was saying that KDZ didn't drop a game and 2-0'd everybody. Kinda bugged me how he went on and on about this falsehood during and after grand finals.

[@TheLegendx100]

I'm pretty confident about my lobo going to evo. I truly wish I can go.

[@1000ericklee]

This needs a shazam

[@Amp1771]

What happened to Tom Brady was he playing in this tournament?

[@Riku72293]

My Shazam has been destroying Superman online all the time.

[@razzo086]

why the heck does chrisg have glasses on his head at night?

[@ThePieking3000]

yea your right there, but he seems outsped still by many characters. i also noticed he has few overheads. the water of life has been nerfed, though. i do agree that was cheap. it now takes 12 seconds to recharge and can't save him from super moves that are beginning combos. ex:lex luthor, harley quinn

[@drickledrabpearson2549]

That guy using Superman in the first match was such a dick. Just kept spamming lasers. As soon a Batman got close, he just hit him back and spammed his lasers again.

[@KaeruFroggo]

***** It's still pretty cheap tho...

[@KaeruFroggo]

We agree on that, top-players are supposed to know how to deal with spammers,zoners,rushers etc.

[@jonathanpark4619]

Huevontlez But the game studio dealt with balancing very poorly. Instead of modifying each character, they just released new characters that were specialized in countering zoning or rush-down, etc.

[@KevinStCool]

UltraDavid mentioned how much he likes Skullgirls around 1:20:00. I've heard people on stream say that, so how come no one plays it?

[@deathstroke2446]

Why were these only best 2/3???

[@RuinedApple]

GOTY of injustice is coming out for pc so i am thinking about getting it. I was wondering how closely this plays to mortal kombat,

[@W1NGZER0]

Chris G vs Godspeed was awesome.

[@SpanishFly120]

While I don't have anything against this game, I have to admit that this and SFxT were most certainly the Top 8's that felt the least 'hype' for me. Before re-watching this, I literally remembered nothing about it other than Chris G was in it.

[@clearsurname]

is there a trick to doing special moves faster to keep a combo going? like at 20:30 when superman does the forward Y to A combo a few times then Y to the low scoop. Is there a trick? because when I try it seems like i cant do it too soon or Superman doesnt respond at all

[@Solooonggayboooy]

You have to string supers immediately after combo inputs

[@opgam3r482]

i thought i'd see a reallly good batgirl take Injustice this evo too. man its like if DJt played one of 2 or 3 specific characters, Batgirl, Aquaman, maybe raven... he's got the great stamina of patience to beat superman. It hurt to see DJt not using GL max damage combos though... the hits he were confirming could of lead easily into %45 damage, max %50 Without trait...(MB the missile FIRST after a confirm is key, Then MB grab, back 3, and the back 1 2 string) Huge difference

[@tefranger]

and if by sluggish you mean slow, that's not true at all. b1,2 string comes at you at 9 frames first attack, and has ridiculous reach. It makes him a really good punisher. marine marvel f1,2's first attack comes at you at 7 frames and also has decent reach. now f1,2 can be armored out of but its risky to do because aquaman can also do f1, trident scoop which blows through the armor because it hits twice. but again, like I said, diff of opinion.

[@ubadman1]

So if I want to win in this game I have to use superman?

[@travellingspud7972]

Let me guess before watching. It's either Aquaman, Batgirl, or Superman

[@travellingspud7972]

I am a legend :D

[@INeedHerPomPomJuice]

The crowd wasn't even hype when KDZ won :P

[@Henriestorm]

Hahaha...spam this spam that...there's no rule against someone spamming a move....I would spam like hell when using those superman lasers...Unless my opponent has someway of countering that, am just gonna go ahead and use it.

[@MegaDudeman21]

+coreydye15 boo hoo

[@jianyihuang]

I like how Superman is the villain here.

[@MhnFive]

32:05 "...He wasted alot of metur durr".

[@KennyPowersGaming]

is this top 8 and grand finals

[@DefaultGatewayable]

1:16:45 Green Lantern got an arrow an the knee.

[@iitz_Ifrit]

How to counter Superman: Deathstroke

[@josh_wah]

green arrow needs to get boosted in the next patch he does like 15 hits and does less than 30% damage

[@tefranger]

well then if your too lazy to learn how to deal with lazers and projectiles, then don't complain if you lose to them. if you don't put in the time and practice, don't expect to get better. and that goes for any fighter. and this game is way more than just combos. combos are actually the easier part of the learning curve in this game. once you lean them, u need to learn set ups, mind games, pokes and strings that are safe on block, and other options to open up your opponent for combos.

[@backera83]

watching crisg's arrow is really entertaining!

[@isupportthecurrentthing5225]

Is the playstation remote really that accurate?

[@shadowflare2255]

yup.

[@a1771550]

it's thrilling to watch green arrow's wins...XD
