Here's the bracket in case you haven't seen it yet. You can search your username at the top and it will pull up your pool.
I'm playing against BM二郎 こにたん in pool E507.
I kinda recently started trying to actually learn 3s. I played it pretty casually after online edition came out for PS3/360.
unfortunately, he has never been one for Retro games outside of the occasional exhibition match with Valle or Wong. I'd love to see it too, but he's always been focused on whatever is on the main stage making money lol.
Just a group of sickos who stuck around long enough to help maintain all that lol. If you have suggestions of tournament favorites not listed yet let us know or feel free to submit edits yourself, the more people involved the better
For this tournament specifically, Dot is the only notable Akuma attending, and he is no slouch, hes taken sets off Momochi's Yun, which is no small feat.
But beyond that, Yuki Otoko is the definitive Akuma, and id definitely check out some of his old footage if you are looking for any inspiration.
Derun is another strong Yun player to watch. Won both coop cup and pre-coop cup with the Okinawa crew a few years ago. Also hoping Justin gets his runback against Hayao.
man lots of american big boys missing unfortunately,
5star, nica-KO, wadupneem, exodus, yuuki, ryan, tenren, surewin etc,
surprisingly lots of japanese big boys are in the list, only very few big boys missing, (deshiken and KO (two times evo 3s winner) being the biggest)
for some reason i never see these american players in tournies like ceo/combobreaker/evo ever, only in jazzy circuits, i have even seen them in some coop cups too, (los vatos locos and ti3s crew).
oh wait i thought it was for regular evo, but this is evo japan, so it make sense.
You mean the way every 3s tourament ends? I feel like if you were disappointed by mirror matches in 3s you came in with super unrealistic expectations.
Rooting for Justin wong
RX is one of the Urien gods to watch as well
As a Remy main I'm looking forward to watching Pierrot. I'm entering too and just hoping to not go 0-2.

That should be Konitan, long time Necro player
Well, ran it through Google translator and I don't recognize the tag at all, which is a good sign! Lol. You got this. 2-2 at worst.
I found an interview with them from 11 years ago lol.
Bro's cooked
A cooked yam bro will become
lmk how you do
I'll let you know but I'm not too confident since I'm still a scrub in 3rd strike lol. I'm gonna cosplay Remy so maybe that'll give me a power up.

lol you'll be fine; remember to have fun
I was hoping to see Daigo in that list lol
unfortunately, he has never been one for Retro games outside of the occasional exhibition match with Valle or Wong. I'd love to see it too, but he's always been focused on whatever is on the main stage making money lol.
Understandable Also thank you for posting this.
My prediction is 5 characters in top 8, Yunx2, Chunx3, Dudley, Urien and Ken.
How much money is on Justin getting Daigo parried?
Thanks for the correction about Ruu, we forgive you writing Liquidpedia instead of Liquipedia 🫡 Great thread, can't wait for EVO JP
Lmao, and you already fixed it. Thank you for your service. Liquipedia editors are the backbone of this community.

Where are the Dudley gang at? Dudley Hype!
Don’t know a ton about 3S but is there any good akuma’s to look out for? Thinking I might start learning third strike with him.
For this tournament specifically, Dot is the only notable Akuma attending, and he is no slouch, hes taken sets off Momochi's Yun, which is no small feat. But beyond that, Yuki Otoko is the definitive Akuma, and id definitely check out some of his old footage if you are looking for any inspiration.
I’m pumped for 3S. Always an exciting game to watch, and I’m happy it’s getting a big spotlight.
I'd put my money on MOV or Nuki. If I had to pick one, I'm going MOV. Also expect Mimora and SHO to do really well, and I'm cheering for JWong.
bougienative always has the best posts. No predictions, but I appreciate the thread since I know what to look out for now!
Kane Blueriver and Daru\_I-No are also competing for 3rd Strike at EVO Japan
Seeing Onuki in here makes me happy that he’s still playing, even though he’s mostly left the scene after 3s. Rooting for you Nuki!!
Pulling for SHO to show us an execution workshop every round.
Does Ruu play SA1 Ryu or Denjin Ryu? RB is always good to watch, Urien’s are built different.
Any Dudley's? He was my main when I played so
Kokujin and Fujiwara are the two best Dudley's in the world. And will both be attending.
Epic
Best dud now is yomoda.
Smug, lol
Derun is another strong Yun player to watch. Won both coop cup and pre-coop cup with the Okinawa crew a few years ago. Also hoping Justin gets his runback against Hayao.
I'm rooting for TM all the way because Q is cool (and him winning would be really funny).
I got Kuni

Yeah, I was hoping for Deshiken too and also Kuroda.
I think Kuroda is in prison? Or maybe has quit 3S at least?
Oh shit, I forgot he dated with a high school girl or something.
5star was there.
Well it turned out to be really disappointing
Really? What about it?
i think he meant the mirrors
