Mago beat him at a Capcom Cup qualifier I believe.

It was for the SF 25th Anniversary thing.

Basically the UK qualifier was on and Madcatz sent Japanese players like Mago who failed to qualify in the Japanese event. Ryan got salty when he then lost.

He replaced it quickly with:

"Ryan Hart ‏@RyanJosephHart
Peeps don't get me wrong,its an open qualifier&anyone can enter but Mago already had his shot in Japan.A team should look out for each other"

I'm sure we have all been there after losing something you really wanted.

Ah. That makes more sense.

I'd feel slighted too if they flew him out there and I lost. But I mean that's Tournaments

the qualifier was in England, and madcatz flew Mago over there. It's not madcatz fault, Ryan was just EXTREMELY salty after his loss in grand finals. He's a great guy

edit: beaten

Well, from a strategic standpoint it kind is Madcatz fault but it's kind of long in the past now, at least in the tourney world. lol

Ryan used to whine constantly (Cryin' Hart) on all forms of social media when he lost/when he thought something was BS, but he has toned it down almost completely since.

I also figured it would be Team Topanga + 1 other well known Japanese player like Sako or Haitani.

And yeah I would say Ryan has America on lockdown in AE 2012. But AE 2012 is about to end in just about a week and it's a whole new ball game now with USF4. Plus Sagat is getting a little worse so their is a chance he may not even stick with Sagat.

I'm saying, if you have little to no knowledge of the xmens, the movies are fine.

If you are a fan and knowledgeable then Its a bad representation of them imo.

That's completely irrelevent. You can not expect Comic book stories to translate to film. They have completely different nattative structure. Also comic books in general have weaker narratives than film do to their never ending incredibly flimsy nature. If they ever made an X-men movie that followed the comics to at T it would be a mess of a film.

I think that is fair because you can really see him try to carry himself properly these days.

It is like he got good advice and actually listened to it...

I would say at this point Louffy, Valmaster, Problem X, and Alioune are all as good or better than the best American players.
Click to expand...

I don't buy that, Ryan has proven himself but besides Louffy I don't think any of those other guys would win if they came to America. Even though I exempted Louffy I don't think he would win either. I think he would eventually run into a character match up that he can't overcome. He beat Justin last time but I don't think he can do it again. And if he ran into someone like Krone, Ricky, or Kbrad I think he's in for a long day.

On a similar note, I honestly always used to find Ryan Hart ridiculously over hyped. I came in to the scene pretty late (09er etc) and I was more used to seeing Ryan never clutch it out, or when he did win I was left thinking he got lucky.

Now at this stage in the game, I can fully see where the hype comes from. I can finally see that his approach to the game and how he reads/treats opponents is at a point where he can be absolutely dominant.

Just want to say what a great tournament for a Marvel fan like me. The UMvC3-X tournament was awesome to watch.

And also the standard tourny was excellent. For me I was surprised Chris G and Jwonng placed behind Ray Ray and PR Bolrog. But it was nice to see them at the top also.

Just want to congratulate such a well ran event. Fun for any fighting game fan for sure!

the only problem I don't think the best players in the US would do it because the only opportunity would probably be at EVO and no way they would want to run it during EVO.

Art has a Europe vs US 10v10 from last EVO but I don't think any big US player played.
