Forums - Gaming - EVO 2017 roster announced. 9th game will be voted in.

It seems kind of strange that KI is on the voting list, rather than a confirmed title for EVO, since it seems like one of the bigger fighting games, and a key MS fighting game. I feel like that one should have been there.

Seeing ARMS on the list is also a surprise, and would actually like to see how that would go. I kind of hope that one wins.

KI for me and am I tripping or are 4 of those EVO games PS4 exclusives?



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

PSN: StlUzumaki23

UMvC3 back in front

UMvC3 - $6550
Pokken - $6246
Killer Instinct -$3823

The rest are irrelevant



Noo.. I want KI to be there as much as I want UMvC3.

Do we really need 2 Smash Bros?

2 Super smash are Nintendo.

Taken 7, and injustice 2 are multi-platform game.

One is a vote in game.

The rest are Ps4 exclusives though. So yeah 4 of those are PS4 exclusives.

Wow that is.....something lol.

On a side note I honestly feel like they should just drop Injustice 2 from the list and add in KI and UMvC 3. If not that then maybe one of the Super Smash games. Is the difference between the 2 really that big where they need both of them? I have not played either one so I am not sure.

They are the 2nd and 3rd biggest games at EVO, regardless of how different they are they would never drop 1 for UMvC3 or KI.

Injustice or 1 of the anime fighters would make a lot more sense if UMvC3 and KI are both more popular than those.

Genesis is a Melee centric event, and it promoted Melee as its main event ahead of Smash 4. It's only bound to get more attention.

There have been plenty of tournaments where Smash 4 had more players and viewers.

It's not very easy to tell which gets more views. At tier 2 events (nationals), Smash 4 might get more views. At super majors, Melee destroys Smash 4 viewership, unless Smash 4 is the final event, in which case is pretty close. 

I do think Smash 4 deserves the Sunday spot on Mandalay Bay, simply because it's the second biggest game. It doesn't make sense to have a bracket with more players be shorter than one with less players.

S4 has done better at tier 1 events through out the whole of last year in fact what you posted is more vice versa.



Arms!



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile


The Megaman run in Smash 4 last year was my favourite moment.

Well one thing that helps Melee at least for me, is that I know way more Melee players than Smash 4 players. I really wouldn't underestimate how long some of these guys have been around and the reputations/fanbases they build. It's fun knowing you have someone to root for.
