this is the best moment in the history of evo. this sums up the love the FGC has for the players, for SF, and most of all, love for playing some great games and having a good time with your friends! that's what it's all about!
if anything, gamerbee taking that round after the pause by letting time run out was a blessing in disguise for momochi. momochi's stick malfunctioned again during the time run down. imagine if gamerbee decided to kill him right away to go to the next round. momochi's stick would've malfunctioned in round 3!!! and he would've lost the entire tournament because of the pause.
i thought you had the choice to end the fight whichever way you want? anyway, that's a good rule to have. let the time run out so it doesn't reward the player with a full meter going into the next round.
I wish that gamerbee was able to take the round From momochi instead of gain a round. In this case they could have replayed the entire last game instead of such a lag time to play just a single round
One thing can't be taken away from Gamerbee: his Adon beat Momochi's Ken, which had been winning a lot of tournaments prior to this, in EVO 2015 Grand Finals. Goddamn E. Ryu... I've never wanted the character to be in the game.
+Liam Austin IDK if it's that simple just getting a new sponsor. Mew2King, a top 5 Melee player for years is a bit notorious for having bad sponsors, yet he just can't shake em for some reason. Don't know what it is, maybe it's just M2K, but i don't know if you can just "get a new sponsor".
That Witness Me sign Mad Max reference lol 34:50 Good game but I think Gamerbee cheesed diago a bit with 2 raw ultras but still Gamerbee does deserve to be top 3 no doubt. Momochi is just on fire this year.
30:00 what every casual fighter gamer like myself came here to see. I heard about it, but didn't believe it, but here it is. 1 of the 2 'moments' everyone is supposedly talking about.
Those two players are tremendous players that I love very much, because of their main character Cody and Adon. But I have to admit that Gamerbee deserved to win this EVO more than Momochi, he walked through so many things after thinking about retiring and even if he played Elena, in the grand finals he played his main character not Momochi. At least he is qualified for CCPT hope he wins that tournament!
Cody isn't his main anymore get over it, Cody won't get him anywhere and he is free to change mains/ if he wants. Gamerbee was given a whole round for free and he still didn't win after they both lost momentum so the better player won.
just wanted to see the part where james and seth cries...im pretty sure most of the people who were watching wanted gamerbee to win so bad. he played so hard, i think he played nemo- infiltration - momochi straight with no breaks, as for the pause, momochis stick had a malfunction, i have to say no foul play, but what sucks is, if that was just pools they would've given gamerbee the point there..
also i like the part when pr balrog just pats momochis shoulder but rushes to gamerbee, so much emotion in this evo, i was there on evo2014, that was nothing compared to this...
It was the best evo i watched so far. GG3rd was superb, KI incredible hype, and the emotion at usf4 specificly commentators at the end was unbelievable. Till next year^^
+JD3s Yeah I know that already but I really can't find this song anywhere :( Maybe i'm just bad at searching, if you find the full track let me know :)
So, did Gamerbee have the right to take the whole match or what? And if so, that would have made him champion. And who knows, that interruption could have interfered with his awareness, taking him out of the zone. They both looked disappointed at how things ended - but what can you do? Nothing at this point. GGs
If I was playing somebody in a tournament and his stick malfunctioned, I wouldn't take the round. Why? Because if I ended up winning the whole match, I really wouldn't feel like I legitimately ''won''. Seriously, if I was Gamerbee and I won EVO in this way, I'd never be able to forgive myself, that Evo trophy would be a trophy of shame as opposed to something I can be proud of lol.
SwinnyUK Wondering. Could they have also opted to reset the last match? because Momochi was ahead by 1 round and the malfunctoin would null that first round win?
SwinnyUK It's not the competitors choice whether or not to take the round. Evo rules are if you pause during a match YOU MUST TAKE THE ROUND. You don't get the option.
Bd Ta He was, there was no reason he shouldn't be. Him disrupting the game only ended up in Gamerbees advantage, he won fair and square even though he got a round stolen from him.
this is the best moment in the history of evo. this sums up the love the FGC has for the players, for SF, and most of all, love for playing some great games and having a good time with your friends! that's what it's all about!
Not afraid to admit that I nearly cried seeing Gamerbee after he lost.
smashbro5 agreed, and this is the first EVO video I have ever seen.
Don't worry about Gamerbee, worry about kids who have no water or food.
That arcade stick sure was some bad advertising for the sponsor.
RAZER QC LUL RAZER QC LUL RAZER QC LUL RAZER QC LUL RAZER QC LUL
Momochi was the EVO champion, but Gamerbee was the people's champion.
gamerbee = the rock?
lmao
i would like to give my applause to gamerbee and momochi.
it was an epic match
46:58 Song name: Evolve by Red Rapper You're welcome!
It's been a while but this set still gives chills down my spine. It's the anime ending everyone wanted.
if anything, gamerbee taking that round after the pause by letting time run out was a blessing in disguise for momochi. momochi's stick malfunctioned again during the time run down. imagine if gamerbee decided to kill him right away to go to the next round. momochi's stick would've malfunctioned in round 3!!! and he would've lost the entire tournament because of the pause.
VpY22 letting time run out was enforced by the rules, so that the person attacking wouldn't build meter.
i thought you had the choice to end the fight whichever way you want? anyway, that's a good rule to have. let the time run out so it doesn't reward the player with a full meter going into the next round.

SICK GAME LOOKING FORWARD TO STREET FIGHTER 5 & HOPE SOME OF THESE CHARCTERS WILL BE IN GAME
Momochi deserved to win, but it must of been so awkward for him and he should get a new sponsor.
+Liam Austin IDK if it's that simple just getting a new sponsor. Mew2King, a top 5 Melee player for years is a bit notorious for having bad sponsors, yet he just can't shake em for some reason. Don't know what it is, maybe it's just M2K, but i don't know if you can just "get a new sponsor".

Momochi knows how to win and how to respect the opponent. Congrats.
from the melee community
this game seems sick
i need to watch this more often
Best Evo ever
Gamerbee let momochi wins the final round , look how he enters with that jaguar kick like a present to momochi
Israel Perez Pa LOL
I've never seen a crowd go that crazy over a pause😂
I legit cried when I saw this live lol
well, I will definitely be watching next year.
30:00 what every casual fighter gamer like myself came here to see.
I heard about it, but didn't believe it, but here it is. 1 of the 2 'moments' everyone is supposedly talking about.
+TheGuy WhoWentThere The commentator's flat tone of horror is the best thing about it: "No. No James. No, not like this."
Those two players are tremendous players that I love very much, because of their main character Cody and Adon.
But I have to admit that Gamerbee deserved to win this EVO more than Momochi, he walked through so many things after thinking about retiring and even if he played Elena, in the grand finals he played his main character not Momochi.

the croud the players makes this moment so unic :´)
Best 26:00

who clicked the pause button and whats the consequenses of doing so?
+Mr Ice
Momochi thought he accidentally pressed the pause button when it was just his stick malfunctioning. Doing so gives your opponent the round.
Clicking pause forfeits the round, though it's to the discretion of the other player. They can choose if they want to take the win or keep playing.
If Momochi would have lost that final match, if I was him, I would be getting a new sponsor.
This is one of the most controversial matches i've seen so far.
Amazing .. stuff awesome ...
i cant find the song at the end pls help ^^
+was los sandstorm darude
Joemark canedo haha so funny
i read this comment 1000000x but your vision was great !
idiot...
momentum is off after that
Looking back at this makes me pissed. Gamerbee should have won man..that stick malfunction really killed his monentum
esos chinos si son unos duros para esa vaina
^^ Taiwanese Pride ~
Momochi also had the life lead when he did the pause in the second round. Why would someone want to 'cheat' at that point?
Jeremy Cai Yixin it was his stick malfunctioning
I wish I could find that song 44:00
+Kurtzftw sandstorm darude
+Kurtzftw The name of the song is in the video right as the montage starts.
You do not have to be afraid - Super Square
+JD3s Yeah I know that already but I really can't find this song anywhere :( Maybe i'm just bad at searching, if you find the full track let me know :)
first enjoyable street fighter 4 gf
Sportsmanship
i liked the part where he said hadouken
Why are the casters crying at the end
So, did Gamerbee have the right to take the whole match or what? And if so, that would have made him champion. And who knows, that interruption could have interfered with his awareness, taking him out of the zone. They both looked disappointed at how things ended - but what can you do? Nothing at this point.

According to Evo rules, you're only allowed to take one round.
30:15
who beat Daigo?
me
wow! what a match!
Algum br
gamerbee the real winner at the end
only he didn't win though he got second place.
Wow!
Amazing. What a drama.
I think Momochi had more to lose if he tried to cheat...
46:41 the fuckin girl voice ruins all those hype moments dafuq haha
If I was playing somebody in a tournament and his stick malfunctioned, I wouldn't take the round. Why?

there is on insane amount of money on the line, it's time to just be grateful for what u can get
Now compare it to finals of 2016 and see how degenerate is sfv
Doesnt feel right. If it happened to me id give it to gamerbee or maybe split the money (is there cash prize here?) Look at momochi its so awkward.
Jopet Igarta What a bitch
1STAPPEARANCEHULKED huh? Im sorry if i hurt your feelings. :p
Jopet Igarta Why would you feel bad? Momochi won fair and deserved it.
But you can tell Momochi wasn't satisfied at all
Bd Ta He was, there was no reason he shouldn't be. Him disrupting the game only ended up in Gamerbees advantage, he won fair and square even though he got a round stolen from him.
lmao no daigo?
man im happy seth quit commentating. now we got sajam and steve who are also very annoying but whatever
Came here to see if other fighting games were as great as melee. I guess not...
lmao. Melee for life tho
+Kain Wratten i dunno, die hard fan here, but still found this match exhilarating.
+Kain Wratten lmao what does this even mean.
+Kain Wratten I enjoy most fighting games, but Smash has always confused the hell out of me, I honestly can’t tell what’s happening or who’s winning
HAhahahahahahahahahaahahahahahaha
Oh my god I needed a good laugh, thanks Smashers.
It happened on purpose. Bullshit
this is like 10 times less hype than melee.
Master Of Baiting Oh look, your bait didn't work
It's probably this attitude from the melee guys that made them cut the game from this year's Evo
I loves James's comparison for the game
