Top 3 Results for GroundZero: Crimson

1st AFD | TB HajinShinobi
2nd Punishere
3rd AFD | TB TenjinShadow

There was great matches all throughout the tournament, even at all skill levels. It was an exciting event, for sure. VF5FS was also really hype. I definitely enjoyed watching the bracket play for it too. DOA5U actually had the highest turnout at this event, which is amazing. Even if it was only 11 entrants. VF5FS had the second highest amountt (not sure what it was though).

I had a great time today playing everyone and meeting more players~

My objectives were:

- To win!
- Get my revenge win on Nykko (you know I love you bro, but I had to avenge my 1337Lounge loss lol).
- Have a good time and play everyone.

I did all three so my mission was accomplished. I won an awesome Quaba Pro 2.0 Arcade Stick too! Now to chill with Shadow and CJ for the rest of the weekend before I return to SoCal. I'm really going to miss it out here and these guys...

LOL Punishere looking like he was going to jump Hajin for that stick. XD

Also here is the link to the stream from the tournament: http://www.twitch.tv/cpsiv/b/467696972 it starts around the 3hr and 50min mark. Before that is a bit of casuals.

Single mic commentary should never happen. Seriously worse than just not having it at all. The fact that Punishere finds literally everything funny didn't help, but I'm glad that everyone (Punishere included) seemed to have a good time. Always nice to see tournaments do well. Eleven people isn't exactly a major but for something I didn't even know existed that's not too shabby.

The Cali scene should pull together for a bigger event with at least several months notice. It's amazing what a lot of time before an event can do for numbers.

 

[Prince Adon]

We have been giving notice of this event for months now. I myself always personally pursue players rather it's taking advantage of fsd, doaw, fb, psn, xbl or even my phone. Plenty of players knew about it, but it's there choice if they decide to show up or not. I do agree with the single commentary, though, but it was something we were not aware of.

Also 11 is a pretty solid number for this type of event. Especially in NorCal and it keep doors open for more events/promotions and exposure. We did the best we can to make this tournament enjoyable for the players and the viewers. I am actually pretty proud of it. We also were the main event with the best numbers beating out VF5FS, SC5 and even TTT2.

Wish I could've made it guys. Work and/or school every day of the week. Don't even have time to get on dat Live.
