    For those putting down BBCP finals - put it this way:
    Gallreo lost 0-3 to Dogura in Winner's Final, won over DoraBang 3-2, then beat Dogura 3-2, 3-2. That's 18 sets straight he had to play in extremely emotional states, where he went 9-9 in total sets. There was five separate moments in the Grand Finals where Dogura was on tournament point and couldn't close it out because Gallreo pulled off some crazy miracle comeback (sometimes with only pixels of life left.)
    And remember this is being shown in front of thousands in attendance, thousands watching at home on Twitch and back in Japan on Nico Douga, and with $35,000 USD on the line and the title of BlazBlue World Champion on the grandest Fighting Game Tournament stage in the world, EVO 2014.
    BTW, I believe this is the only case I know of in EVO Grand Finals history of someone winning the tournament from losers 3-2, 3-2. Justin Wong came close to doing the feat last year in the UMvC3 finals against Flocker but dropped the very last set, losing 3-2, 2-3.

    • @ApexGale
      @ApexGale 9 років тому +15

      mathprodigy That's how games SHOULD be. I've been to countless, less important tournies where people just give up and start slacking. You should always bring your A game and always play to win. Until you've lost 3 sets, you haven't lost the game yet.

      Garireos' face reaction at the end says it all. Crying tears of joy because he earned his victories over Dorabang and Dogera. He will forever be a legend in BBCP. I hope he makes a return for Evo 2015.

  • @NurseValentineSG
    @NurseValentineSG 9 років тому +308

    Seriously, that 1st place is like a fucking show. The underdog getting kicked out by his arch enemy, only to train against others and to come back in the last, final gigantic battle. The archrival is cocky at first, but soon realizes that this guy isn't the same one he won against before. This time, it is for real.
    One round after another they trade, nobody has the upper hand for long. Until that one, final, lucky shot of the underdog...
    goddamn this is amazing.

    Blazblue managed to get 80k views for its grandfinal.
    For a niche anime fighter, and considering it wasn't at a desirable time slot, this is a VERY solid reception.
    With Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and Guilty Gear Xrd coming out this year, I have this glimmer of hope that airdashers will dominate EVO next year.
    The hype is real!

    • @mas8705
      @mas8705 10 років тому +5

      That is my main concern right now about next year's EVO. Blazblue had an amazing showing and a greater finals than most other finals. It would be a real shame if it got thrown out to make way for the other fighters. Even the creator was in tears after what he witnessed on stage.
      Let's hope that either other games get cut besides blazblue, or even better: Expand the game tournaments to include those too and make the biggest EVO of all time! The only problem with the latter though is the whole "Doing it in three days" thing and scheduling for all those fighting games would probably be a nightmare.

    • @BoltofShadow17
      @BoltofShadow17 10 років тому

      They need more than 2 streams and Capcom Fighters.

    • @mas8705
      @mas8705 10 років тому

      Entirely possible Shadow. Still, we need to see how things shape up for now since it is hard to say which game or games should get slashed to make way for others.

  • @d3nyd
    @d3nyd 10 років тому +39

    Max knows what's up! Blazblue was without a doubt the hypest grand finals (and finals in general) of the entire tournament.

  • @illDiology
    @illDiology 10 років тому +86

    The BlazBlue tournament was completely fucking awesome even beyond the great grand finals! There were some great US vs Japan moments in pools, with the US even occasionally coming out on top. TWO cosplayers in top 8 with Dora striking poses everywhere! Pop's Platinum was hype as hell! A brilliant Tager in top 8! Zero Kokonoes making it to top 8! The grand finals winner breaking down in tears, the runner up's wife breaking down in tears, Mori giving Garireo a huge hug on the stage and then breaking down in tears when talking about the attention his game was getting! It just makes the finals even more amazing when put into context. You could make a movie out of this one tournament!

    • @ZevianAlter
      @ZevianAlter 10 років тому +4

      All those Kokonoe players didn't deserve it except Pain and Jiyuana the rest did not play with their best.

    • @AlphaWolf428
      @AlphaWolf428 10 років тому +1

  • @GaleblazeXYZ

  • @Axelman1234

    When Dogura hit that astral I was literally crying, I thought the dream was dead, but the dream never dies. Great work Garireo

  • @EverestBlizzard
    @EverestBlizzard 7 років тому +27

    Number 1 is completely mind blowing and awe inspiring. The insane amount of skill you need to have to be good at BlazBlue is incredibly difficult to attain, so many hours need to be poured in to make sure that you have the combos memorised, the right combos stringed together, and to not mention the damn muscle memory to input the combos correctly every time, because take it from a fairly longtime player, they are really damn hard to get correct every time, especially the longer combos. So to see a player come back from something like that, this is one of the very few times I will justify crying after winning something, because it is a one in a million chance that you could bring yourself back from the brink so many times and end up winning against the very person you initially lost against. Absolutely a highlight of EVO for all time.

      @GamesAreAHobby 10 років тому

      first year on the main stage? i'd go rewatch the last few years of Evo there...this is not BB's first time on the stage. CS1, CS2 AND CSE were all on stage before.
      it's gonna be back and i hope it'll have all the steam that this year's grand finals had through the entire tournament. it deserves more love and yet, it's still buried by Guilty Gear's shadow after all these years. amazing.

  • @goobyaluob

    This video is so damn good. This is the video which introduced me to fighting games other than Super Smash Brothers Melee, and honestly, whenever I watch the Blazblue GF, I get chills, and even more, whenever I hear the quote "moments like these are why we play fighting games," I can feel tears welling up. Watching such a set full of emotion, hearing so much emotion from the commentators and remembering my passion for the game, it's not hard to see what makes fighting games so lovable for me. The amount of skill, effort, and passion put in by each player shows, and makes for wonderful moments, like the ones that Max shows off. Please keep making these Max, and none developing fighting games, please show some care for your community, because they care for what you do.

No amount of hype is enough. This truly was an epic year for EVO!

    Blazblue DEFINITELY showed the word its strengths in EVO.
    Character variety, great technical fighting, many types of metagames, solid core gameplay mechanics, it just had it all.
    It's a far cry from a few years ago when a Noel player won with the typical Noel offensive vortex in a snoozer of a showing. And now it's arguably one of the best main eventers at Evo. I hope Blazblue continues strong into Evo and hopefully more viewers will be hyped beforehand instead of finding out mid-tourney that this is awesome stuff.

But not as interesting as they are here, in my opinion.

    People were in tears during the Galileo climb out of losers all the way through the end of grand finals. Every moment it was over he'd climb up and fight and claw and inch his way out. It was incredibly tremendous to watch this man. I have never seen anything like this tourney at the end.
    This game needs support. This was amazing.

  • @JadeDragonMeli
    @JadeDragonMeli 6 місяців тому +1

    I still come back to this and watch the Galileo clips. I'm not even a BlazBlue fan, but watching this dude fight and claw from certain death so many times; you can't help but get emotionally invested in his journey.
    One of my all time favorite EVO moments.

  • @Affenius

    15:33 I love this moment. Everything about Garireo’s run was just incredible. Every time I see that pop off at the end I tear up because of the effort he went through to earn that title of BBCP Champion.

    • @MyNameJefff

    @zombies8myleg691 10 років тому +6

    Those Blazblue finals were just amazing. You always thought Dogura was gonna take it, but Garireo always came back and at the end he took it. These Blazblue grand finals were as good or better than the KOF 2012 grand finals.

      Play KoF XIII and then tell me your shitty anime fighters are tough.

    • @SimplyDad
      @SimplyDad 9 років тому +2

      ***** I can give my own opinion and in my own opinion seeing as I own both blaz blue and KoFXIII I can say that Blaz blue is trash, basically be the first guy to out juggle the other guy and win. KoF XIII is basically ruined by competitive play most teams being Ex iori, Kim, and Ex Takuma while yes those guys have hella skill what takes a master to learn is using a unique team. Before top tier trash was added to the game every character had a chance at winning a tournament, with the right amount of skill, of course. Blaz blue was just bad from the start as most anime fighters are. Last year's Guilty Gear Xrd took a great game and decided, "hm I like the skill gap between casual and comp players, let's add tits and over the top anime garbage so the game looks better than it plays"

    • @SimplyDad
      @SimplyDad 9 років тому +1

      Thats why i said Competetive KoF XIII was ruined by the DLC characters. Play anybody online and youll see that some teams have excellent synergy with eachother, i personally play Benimaru Kim and Terry/K'/Kensou and they all work excellent together they all play drastically different from eachother so therefore it makes matches all the more fun when you fight someone whos using an unique team as well. KoF is a game of mind, body, and normals my friend :P

    Honestly, 2014 was full of the biggest highlights in the game. Justin reclaimed his throne, Pikachu's schooled out domination against Fox even though Fox is the strongest character, Louffy defeated Bonchan's signature Sagat, Galileo finally defeats Dogura using his Litchi Faye Ling against Dogura's undefeatable Azrael

It was such a stressful set to watch during Grand Finals and I have insane respect for his perseverance. That definitely deserves to be the most memorable moment of Evo 2014, and it'll be hard to beat.
