Congrats to team USA SBO ST: Ganelon, John Rambo, Damdai

Post by TarkanX »

Team USA SBO Super Turbo team consisted of Ganelon (Vega), John Rambo (Dhalsim), and Damdai (Ryu). They were the only United States team that qualified for SBO to get past the 1st round, tying for 5th place out of 16 players. Here is a video detailing their 1st round victory:

They didn't win the whole thing, but the competition in SBO is the holy grail for fighting games, even with the single-elimination standardization. Everyone that qualified is considered world class.

Colour me impressed Ganelon, that was some tight Vega play. Very nice comeback in that final Dhalsim round too, I would have been rattled by the previous one.

Love to watch stuff like this, even better to be (sort of) acquainted with the guys making western gamers look good.

Well done guys!
