Road to EVO 2012 – CEO 2012 Tournament Results

Community Effort Orlando (CEO) is back for its third year is looking to be bigger than ever. Alex Jebailey put together an amazing event last year and is looking to top it in every way possible. Players from all over the world will be at the Wyndham Orlando Resort in Florida for what will be one of the largest tournaments of the year. CEO 2012 is the last of the four EVO Pit Stop events, offering cash bonuses for SSFIV AE, UMvC3 and SCV. CEO 2012 also uses the Ultimate Payout System (UPS) Ver. 2012 used at UFGT8, offering payouts to approximately the top 10% placers in each tournament. Altogether there are 11 tournament games, including one for Keits’s DIVEKICK:

BlazBlue: Continuum Shift EXTEND (PS3)
The King of Fighters XIII (360)
Mortal Kombat (PS3)
Skullgirls (PS3)
SoulCalibur V (PS3)
Street Fighter X Tekken (360)
Super Street Fighter II Turbo (ARC) – TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS qualifier
Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition Ver. 2012 (360)
Tekken 6 (PS3)
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (360)

DIVEKICK will also be in location test at CEO. The top 16 players with the longest win streak will be invited to enter a DIVEKICK tournament for Sunday.

CEO 2012 will be hosting a number of international players. Daigo Umehara of Team Mad Catz, coming off his second place finish in the SSFIV AE tournament at South East Asia Majors 2012 last week, returns to the US for the first time since EVO last year. Joining him is fellow Team Mad Catz member Mago. Momochi and ChocoBlanka of Evil Geniuses have also come from Japan to attend CEO. GamerBee of Taiwan has been in the US for nearly 2 weeks, attending E3 in California as well as East Coast Throwdown 4 last week, and the AVerMedia star player will also be at CEO. Kayane of France is also at CEO after a strong second place finish in the SCV tournament at the MLG Spring Championships in Anaheim last week.

Not only are international players coming out for CEO, but just about every top player in the US you can think of will be in attendance. Justin Wong, Ricky and fLoE of EG; Dieminion, Viscant and IFC Yipes of BROKENTIER; and Combofiend, Mike Ross and Filipino Champ of compLexity Cross Counter will be at CEO representing their respective teams. FC|NYChrisG, UVG|Noel Brown, AG.MCZ|MarlinPie, TS|Sabin (registered as NYC MLG Sellout Furby), TS|NerdJosh, two-time MLG KOF XIII champ IGL|B.A.L.A., vVv|Romance, vVv|CDjr, FlashMetroid, CJ Truth and Ryan Hunter are just a small sample of the players that will also be there, so expecting some great action in just about every tournament.

Does anything besides AE and Marvel EVER get streamed?
- CHIEFMEGADETH
  
  Thinking the same thing. How are other games supposed to get hype,when there not on stream. I don’t mind some AE but damn it was overkill.
  Share the love with all games please.
  - Bill Cosby
    
    There’s more than one stream, idiots.
    - CHIEFMEGADETH
      
      STFU dickhead was watching both streams dicksmoke
      - Bill Cosby
        
        Then you would know that every game was streamed, and finals of every game was streamed. umad cause you’re stupid and missed them. Don’t blame spooky because of your own stupidity.
        
        PS you look like a chotch.
      - CHIEFMEGADETH
        
        lol like i give a shit what some random ”GUY” thinks on how i look. Sicko
        You always comment on the way guys look? lol ”poofter”
      - Bill Cosby
        
        I like how you didn’t even comment on the fact that you were bitching about certain games not being streamed WHEN YOU CAN STILL GET THE ARCHIVES FROM THIS VERY PAGE. I’ll assume you just accepted the fact that you’re completely stupid. You’re welcome.
  - http://profile.yahoo.com/OZ5CCGKTOTRJ2TJDPELUPY7WLE Jalen
    
    I agree with Bill. Try reading around. As a matter of fact, try looking at the page you’re commenting on, as all of the streams are posted right there.
Josh_the_Funkdoc

Here’s what I know of for Marvel top 32 so far:

Winners: Combofiend, Tong (local FL player who beat Knives), Fanatiq, Dieminion, Flocker, Filipino Champ. I think Chris G and Noel Brown as well, but not 100% on those.

Losers I’m not sure about, aside from Jago (Knives is out!). Roachking, Dash, Ryan Hunter, Viscant, and GGC Ice were or are in losers finals of their pools.
Josh_the_Funkdoc

The commentators gave the full KOF13 top 8 but I couldn’t catch all of the names. I just know that winners is Bala vs. The Answer and Romance vs. Mago, and in losers are Chris G and someone named Carlos. Combofiend may have qualified, didn’t get to see the end of that pool.
http://twitter.com/Shin_Hogosha Michael Connolly

I think Flocker ran it back against Combofiend in KOF and qualified out in losers. Not 100% on that though.

Skullgirls REALLY needs to kill that combo duration, goddamn.

- Bill Cosby
  
  Or they could just kill that game. Its not only boring to watch, I’d be straight up EMBARASSED if someone walked in while I was watching people play that game. “Oh I see you’re watching creepy anime porn with huge titties falling out and bouncing around all over the place, i’ll come back later”

There is a match in UMVC3, “Pain vs Punish”.

I love it.
ddddddddd ddddddddd

There are 11 different characters (only doom repeated twice) in the teams of the 4 remaining players in winners (Wong/ChrisG/Fanatiq/Marlinpie).

I believe we call this balance.

Since when was there 2 chi rithy’s in top 16 o.o
http://profile.yahoo.com/OZ5CCGKTOTRJ2TJDPELUPY7WLE Jalen

Chi-Rithy must be on fire this tourney. He made top 32 winners… TWICE!
- OzzyKingofKings
  
  Hmm, good observation. Didn’t catch most of AE pools myself, but I believe one of those two Chi-Rithies is coL.CC|Mike Ross in disguise.
- http://www.kineda.com Kineda
  
  Corrected. col.CC|Mike Ross is in Top 32 winners vs. Mago.

SFxT had 130 players entered. Awesome ”Sabin less hate please”
MK9 and SFxT and SCV Best games at the Tourney imo, But most of the streams where AE and UMVC3. 2 stream and still most of it is AE and UMVC3. For those of us who want to watch different games. come on CEO.
- http://twitter.com/xobehtef mike f
  
  Idk man there was a lot of marvel/sf4 early in the day yesterday but after that there was about 6-8 hours counting both streams of other games. you might have not been watching at the right times b/c i was surprised at how much time the other games got.
- http://twitter.com/emezie Emezie Okorafor
  
  Every time I turned on the main stream, Marvel was on.
  
  Enough is enough.
  - http://www.facebook.com/people/Justin-Brown/1362756791 Justin Brown
    
    it wasnt a thing as a main stream until sunday….. both streams were pulling 10k viewers…. should of had both streams on dude
  - Bill Cosby
    
    AE got more time than marvel did, and there is two streams for a reason, idiot.
    
    No one but you wants to watch SFxT, face it.
    - CHIEFMEGADETH
      
      I wanted to watch SFxT. Another idiot thinking everyone should think the same way as he does.
      - Zyrus
        
        So much hypocrisy…
      - Bill Cosby
        
        You can’t use big words with people like this.
      - Bill Cosby
        
        Can you delete comments? I hope not, so this stays up forever and your shame can be permanent.
        
        Take a look in the mirror, wastrel. Change your life drastically hurry up and end it.
http://www.facebook.com/G.Boobie Geoffrey Van der Linden

Do my eyes deceive me, or is there no Mago in top 32 AE? Am I blind? If he isn’t in there, who put him out?
- http://profile.yahoo.com/OZ5CCGKTOTRJ2TJDPELUPY7WLE Jalen
  
  Mago definitely made top 32. I think he got 9th.
Rahavic

So far this has been the best tournament ever. Jebailey really went all out this year for us and its been beyond hype. Right now I can barely talk and I’m beat as hell, gonna sleep in for once and show up around 3pm for grand finals night and some more DIVEKICK!!! #ceo2012
http://twitter.com/poke133 Drago Umeharevich

thank you Jebailey for not streaming SFxT more than it was! it would’ve interrupted the hype streak of real games
- bladestreetboy19
  
  Real games like Marvel? BAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
  - Gimnbo
    
    I think at this point Marvel has had enough time put into it and has consistent enough results that it counts as a real game.
  - GO4PRO
    
    Moreso than SFxT.
    
    That isn’t saying much though.
  - http://profile.yahoo.com/OZ5CCGKTOTRJ2TJDPELUPY7WLE Jalen
    
    Marvel is pretty ridiculous, but SFxT is a joke. I can consider UMvC3 a fighting game, an erratic one at that, but honestly SFxT is a party game. No questions asked.
  - smoothnsimplified
    
    Kill it with fire!
- eunsun
  
  I don’t like or play SFxT but… SHUT THE FUCK UP
  - Bill Cosby
    
    no one wants to watch DLCgems X Time outs more than marvel or AE. No one who isn’t stupid, at least.
    - http://www.facebook.com/people/Ty-Austin/100002154794093 Ty Austin
      
      Please, guess how much most of us spent on sfxt? The same amount as marvel. Nobody is winning solely due to gems and how many time overs do you see at high level play? Very few.
      
      People will watch what they want to watch.

  the Chinese character for Wong (at least in mandarin) is “王” (pronounced wang since there is no wong in Chinese) which means “King”, I’d say that makes sense.

Wow, Justin is Dominating… If Neither Daigo or Momo cant stop him now in SSFIV, and Chris G in MvC3, we got ourselves a double EVO champ in a few weeks…

    CEO was a pretty big indicator that Justin has been leveling the fuck up. America itself has been leveling up. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Justin take 2 AE and Marvel at EVO.
    
    I mean he’s probably the favorite to win Marvel. Is it really that farfetched for him to win AE?
    - http://twitter.com/GrapeATL Grape 포도 약탈품
      
      CEO if anything, has only showed me that people have been playing extremely sloppy all weekend and it’s hardly anything to go by. Not taking anything away from Justin though, he has upped his game.
- souli23
  
  Anything can happen in a large tournament.
  I mean look at Flash Metroid – he made Top 8 at Evo last year but he failed to make top 32 at CEO.
  If EVO has the same level of comp Shadowloo Showdown had, I’d be very impressed if Jwong managed to win.
  But honestly, I think after CEO people will be practicing the Rufus match-up extra hard now… that character is being slept on.
  - Nybb
    
    Rufus is being slept on? I guess you haven`t been keeping up with SF4 for long then, lol.

      I can honestly say I haven’t played a rufus player online in months and I play almost everyday (China / Japan). It’s a similar situation in Aus. But that’s not to take credit away form Justin Wong, not having any other high level characters to learn from, you kinda have to invent the wheel yourself.

this is the most unfunny novelty account ever. it’s sad enough that you’re wasting others’ time like this, but how about your own time? don’t you have something better to do, especially when NO ONE thinks you’re entertaining at all, even people who don’t play 3S?

CEO 2012 turn out to be an OK event. not fucking awesome for me. it would have been awesome if they showed more love to KOF XIII and give it more air time in the streams. fucking CEO i tell u. anyways CEO 2012 had a KOF XIII tournament so i am happy for that. all the KOF XIII tournament for CEO 2012 was sick and HYPE! in a rare turn of events i was HYPE for another match in another fighting game outside KOF. which was oddly enough in AE. the match was IGL BALA vs. EG Momochi who ended up getting 2nd place in AE tournament. this match was EPIC!
EG Momochi is 1 of the world’s strongest AE player and well known for his Cody as that’s his
strongest character. IGL BALA still new to AE ,but a GOD player in KOF. did very well in his match vs. EG Momochi.
Momochi won the first match and BaLa won the second which by the looks of it, force
Momochi to bring out his strongest character which was Cody to beat BaLa! LOL! this shows that BaLa has the ability to become 1 of AE strongest player in time and if he so desires it. match is here
http://www.twitch.tv/teamsp00ky/b/321648901 at 1:11:28-1:21:43 in video. i dunno if it will be in YouTube as well. Viva KOF Cabrones!
- xelad1
  
  lolwut? Bala being an amazing KoF fighter alone is reason enough to believe that he could adapt to another fighting game since he already likely has the right professional mentality.
  
  Pointing out his game vs. Momochi, however, doesn’t prove anything and also makes you look foolish. He beat Momochi’s alt and then proceeded to get bodied by his Cody… so now Bala will be a top AE player???????? Hey dude I took a round off Wolfkrone’s viper one time online, I think I’ll be in top 8 this EVO! LOL!!!!!111
  - Bama_X
    
    If anything he made Momochi get serious in his gameplay. B.A.L.A got a huge moral victory just for doing that.
  - http://twitter.com/BongoRosso Isaac
    
    Making fun of him in that way and comparing his win to one of your’s or any other random people online against Wolfkrone not only makes you look foolish but a retard too.
    He could definitely become a very strong player in AE if he devotes more time to it, but KoF will remain to be his main focus and is the game he enjoys the most.
    Now on the other hand lets see how Momochi would fare against BALA in KoF…
- Satsui
  
  They showed plenty of love to KOF, what the hell are you talking about? They streamed most of the entire KOF tournament. What more did you want? Every single match on stream?? Not even Marvel or AE got every match on stream. I swear to god, some people just like to hate for no reason.

If James Chen plays in the “Tournament of Legends” It is mandatory that they change the name. My dick is more legendary in the FG scene than that putz.
- http://www.facebook.com/FreestyleiSH Jungsuk Lee
  
  James Chen is in ’cause he came in second and Daigo is already going. I talked to James about qualifying and he told me that there’s only like 3 characters not represented now that he’s in using Cammy.
  - Bill Cosby
    
    So the 2836th best cammy in the world is in the ‘tournament of legends’ because he was one of the few people to show up to the qualifier, and because he plays cammy. K.
    - http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1042952100 Jimmy Pham
      
      He outplaced Sabin who’s a great Sim player. If you wanna put down Chen for being the “2836th” Cammy, then don’t fault him that the other 2835 Cammys “in the world” don’t make an effort to fly out to any tournaments to place that high in a ST tourney.
      - Bill Cosby
        
        I fault the fact that there are 20 qualifier tournaments for a TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS, effectively making it any other tournament, and not at all a tournament of legends.

Way to go Mike, top 8 again, and again placing higher in AE than both F-Champ and Combofiend. If it wasn’t for the fact that PR Rog owned his soul he would have reverse ocv for the grand finals win in teams and maybe even won the singles tournament.
- http://www.facebook.com/dominicdl Dominic De Luca
  
  Mike’s Honda was blowing people up left right and center, good work. Especially because of what F-Champ said in Cross Counter Live about his performance, that made me want him to win even more.
Bavo Bruylandt

I think that Justin and Ricky being both in the same team, and playing the same character, has strengthened them a lot. They seem to be the strongest by far in the last few months, and they can compete with the best of Japan at the moment.
However, I still find a large gap between top Asian (Japan mostly) skill and top American/European skill. When I watch top videos of western majors they are high level but rarely surprising. Then go watch Topanga. Competition is insane. The difference is clear to anyone who watches AE at technical levels.
That those players don’t simply overtake western favorites has many factors. The biggest one is fighting against home-advantage, its proven that playing before the own crowd makes you better, and fighting in a crowd rooting against you is mentally depressing. Another one is simply physical exhaustion caused by travel and jetlag.Even another is how tiring it is to be in another culture where extractions are plenty. It’s hard to focus if everyone is looking at you, and all is different.
This goes for all players who come in from a different culture. Americans at SBO never got passed a first round AFAIK.
If you really want to see an objective skill difference, you would have to do something like a FT10 between players who are in private, and have been resting for at least a week.

  Do you really think that only asian players are cleaner in private concept matches? Everyone plays sloppier in tourneys. You really just seem like a fanboy.

My favorite part of this tournament was during KoF, when the commentators went full Spanish on us, and oddly enough all the stream monster loved it because the Spanish commentary was super hype despite most of us not understanding it compared to the English commentary. The view count literally jumped by 3000 when that happened and when the English commentary came back it dropped by 1000 lol.

Anyway, Mago was beast in KoF, but still no match for BALA. He’s definitely on par with Romance though.

As far as SF4 goes, its a shame that Daigo had to go up against both EG Rufus players. To be honest. Justin and Ricky were probably the only 2 people in the entire tournament who had a good chance of defeating him, and lo and behold. Its a shame that Momochi got blown up by Justin though. Imagine if Daigo and Momochi’s bracket spots were switched. Daigo would’ve easily been in the winner’s finals, and he fought pretty evenly with both Rufus, probably giving us a way more hype WF/LF/GF.

Though I have to say, Justin and co definitely leveled up alot in SF4. However that doesnt mean it’ll be smooth sailing for them at Evo. There’ll be way more international monsters to defeat there. Daigo isnt the only threat.
- souli23
  
  If Daigo and Momochi were switched, Daigo would have faced Mago before Top 16, and that could go either way.
  But really, Momochi and Ricky should have been switched. It was a bit of a shame Mago and Momochi had to face each other before top 16, and the loser had to face Daigo. Losing to 2 Japanese players before top 8 when there were only 3 at the tournament to begin with kind of sucks. IIRC the same thing happened to Momochi at EVO last year. But I guess if Daigo hadn’t lost to JWong that wouldn’t have happened.
  - Bill Cosby
    
    …..but….Momochi DIDN’T face Mago before top 16, or at all, actually. So what is your logic? He’s not wrong. Daigo in Momo’s spot would have been top 3 for free. Furthermore, giving daigo 3 out of 5s and an extra set against justin means he probably would’ve won, too.
- Los_llluminados
  
  LOL. indeed. that was 1 of my favorite part of CEO 2012 as well. KOF baby all the way.
souli23

@Bill Cosby
Huh? Did you watch the tournament?
Bracket is here: http://challonge.com/ceoaetop32
Mago beat Mike Ross, Momochi beat West. They were then matched up against each other. Momochi won and Mago was sent to losers to play Daigo.
- Bill Cosby
  
  Did YOU watch the tournament?
  
  Daigo beat Mago in the tournament. Daigo in Momos spot would’ve meant first place for the beast.
  - souli23
    
    Well that’s why I said it could have gone either way if Daigo had to play Mago in winners. Remember this is the 1st time Daigo has beaten Mago’s Fei in tournament with Ryu.
    - Bill Cosby
      
      This is false. US tourny, maybe.
      - souli23
        
        What other tournament was there? I know he beat him in the online Topanga league match but that ain’t a tournament.
        Either way, my point was that Daigo beating Mago was a 50/50 chance.
      - Bill Cosby
        
        But its not. Daigo hasn’t lost to mago in a serious set in a long time. You’re basing that on NOTHING. My point stands true, backed by EVIDENCE. He would’ve won the tourny if he had momochi’s spot.
      - souli23
        
        So you’re saying Topanga League wasn’t serious? Mago did beat Daigo in the offline Elimination round which was a long set.
        Yes it was close, and yes Daigo would have won if he wasn’t dropping combos/going for easier combos, but he didn’t.
        But I agree, his chances of winning CEO if he was in Momochi’s spot were higher.
        You could say that about alot of tourneys though.
      - Bill Cosby
        
        can’t even comment properly….case closed, you’re dumb.
      - Bill Cosby
        
        If you honestly think daigo vs mago is 50/50, you’re an oblivious idiot.
