Tournament of Legends III videos

A few weeks ago some never seen videos from ToL3 (2018) were published on David Bibona’s channel.

These are the videos released:

  • Full footage of ToL3 top 32
  • Full footage of ToL3 LCQ (Pool 1-6)
  • As part of the same event, full footage of Canada Cup 2018 3vs3 team tournament
  • Small ToL3 casuals video

All of the above are listed at the bottom part of the ToL3 playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist…

Also as additional tasks:

  • Added annotations to Canada Cup 2016 re-uploaded video (the one with the ghost fb moment)
  • Added annotations to part 2 of extensive CC2017 casuals video
  • Fixed broken links of brackets across all the Canada Cup editions

All above listed at: https://www.youtube.com/ch…/UC3DyAkJPkJsQ-iJaR6aN1sA/search…

Personal hightlights/upsets from ToL3:

  • Zarghatt, Makiri and ORF OCVs & almost-OCVs from Valle and Komoda in the team tournament.
  • Tania vs Kusumondo, UC vs Murasaki, LordJimmy vs Komoda, Damdai vs Umehara in the ToL3, and the whole top 8.

As a final note. It seems that youtube has added the feature of visualizing the timestamp annotations right into the player timeline.

The Sixth Invite for TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III is Daigo Umehara!

The Beast is joining TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III!

Daigo Umehara needs no introduction, as he is considered one of, if not the best Street Fighter players of all time!

Daigo is a former Tougeki champion, a two-time former EVO Super Turbo champion and has won a number of majors across the US. He competed and finished fourth in the memorable TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS I at Evolution 2012, falling to AfroLegends. He also competed in X-MANIA USA at Evolution 2014, teaming up with Nuki and Tokido in a great and entertaining match against Mike Watson, John Choi, and Alex Valle.

TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III takes place at Canada Cup 2018 on October 26-28, 2018 with Super Turbo players from around the globe attending.

Max31 and a Sixth Japanese Invite!

Some of you may have heard that the French players attending TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III booked their flights on Primera Airlines, which went bankrupt. They are not offering any refunds and sadly, Max31 is now unable to attend ToL3. As a result we opened up Max’s qualifier spot to a SIXTH JAPANESE INVITE AND THIS INVITE IS DEFINITELY A LEGEND!

Stay tuned for the announcement coming on Tuesday!

The Fifth Invite for TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III is Shogatsu!

Another Honda grandmaster, Shogatsu is coming to TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III!

Shogatsu is a multiple-time Gian Recital and Kakerugo Champion and also won the Canada Cup 3on3 tournament last year. He has also placed highly in a number of tournaments, including X-MANIA and Defend the North!

The Fourth Invite for TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III is Kusumondo!

The Honda grandmaster, the Yokozuna himself, Kusumondo is coming to TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS III!

Kusumondo’s resume is quite impressive to say the least. He is a former X-MANIA champion. He won Kakerugo 5on5 in 2015. He’s also competed internationally on many occasions, including winning Ultra 2 Old 2 Furious and X-Street Battle in 2017. He finished 2nd at Canada Cup in both 2016 and 2017 to Mattsun but did win the 3on3 tournament last year at Canada Cup. But possibly his most famous match came at EVO 2014 in the TOURNAMENT OF LEGENDS I grand finals, as he and MAO had an epic battle that went to the very final round!
