Will be an awesome tournament, I see lots of great players in the lineup. For you USA headz who don't have much knowledge about other parts of the world this is an opportunity to see the outside world. Here's Killerdoll beating JDCR in a MM for instance - might be a salty runback?!?!

No American or Japanese players. Probably because the US and Japanese economy is so fucked up, they can't afford the inflated costs of plane costs; .
Where the hell is Asim and Rikimaru??? Still freiking STACKED tournament regardless. Great post again FWonkey!
Not because of economies.
It's more like that Tekken is not a popular "e-sport" so to say since the community does not stand behind the game like the Street Fighter community stands behind theirs.
If nobody watches Tekken, you will not get anyone to sponsor you, since sponsors want to advertise their shit to a broad audience.
If you guys want to see Tekken players travel internationally, support your scene, promote the game among your friends and sign up and show up for tournaments even if you suck.
If there was a strong community behind the game, we would see people being able to live off practicing and competing in Tekken.
They should just call this "JDCR vs Europe"
this looks great haven't seen Killerdoll in TTT2 yet, can't wait to see this one!
Tmm is lucky he doesnt face JDCR in the first round

What a fucking disappointing tournament.
Was looking forward to see JDCR whoop ass all day, but no getting a stream set up was too hard it seems.
It seems TMM and rip learned about being humble and a sport and not being arrogant and cocky all the time(sarcasm). But then I doubt that and they will say there loss is there fault. And they excuse they didnt execute the right moves, knowing the frames more, practice more on movement, not know the right punish, etc... And they will blame there "poor performance" because of online gaming and tekken revolution. And they will harass and bully players that only wants to learn the game. Shaming those players for the public to see on YT.
This is the reason why the mainstream just cant take e-sports and competitive gaming in general seriously. Its just a game. Why even basketball have casual mode that works perfectly( shooting rings on the arcade and basketball booth on carnivals) and video games dont?
