Sadly 90% matches was with Sol vs Sol.

So It's all about SOL SOL SOL SOL SOL

anyway

-=Losers' Finals=-
ID vs. Miu
Sol vs. Sol, and crazy stuff from the get go. ID lands a command grab, but gets hit by the Burst. Both at half health. Miu with half burst already, ID still full burst. Miu takes some damage as ID goes on the offensive. FRC GF, ID takes round 1! ID cornering Miu now, but Riot Stamp from Miu pulls him out. ID tries to VV, but Miu VVs right back, RCing it though. ID takes some big damage, and Miu command grabs him to take round 2. Miu with an early lead, ID screws up a burst, and Miu with FRC GF rush down. ID VVs, baits one from Miu, but misses retaliation. Miu with crazy rush down, and ID rushes him back into the corner, riot stamp, VV, FRC GF, both sweep each other. Miu corners ID, and takes the first match. ID with a Dust launch, Miu bursts, but gets cornered. Miu RCs VV into combo for big damage, Miu misses VV on near dead ID. Huge damage by ID, but Miu gets him back. Takes the round with FRC GF. ID rushes Miu down with BR, lands VV, FRC GF rush. Miu command grabs for 25% combo. ID whiffs a burst, and Miu punishes it to take the match. Winner: Miu

-=GRAND FINALS=-
Daigo vs. Miu
Sol vs Sol and people are booing, yet they won't boo same ole Team Scrub vs. Team Scrub. Weak. Miu being rushed down, Daigo RCs into combo into VV. Lands a 19 hit air combo, and takes the round. GF duel, Miu ticks into command grab, Daigo escapes, but Miu bursts. Daigo combos into DP in corner, kick combo again. Daigo bursts, Miu VV RCs in response. Kick combo (Bandit Revolver loop maybe?) in the corner by Daigo to take the first match. Miu gets screwed over by a super in the corner, Daigo FRC GF, kills Miu. Daigo gets DP'd in the corner. I've just been informed that all the air kick combo's in the corners WERE in fact Dust Loops. Miu rushing Daigo in the corner, Dust launch. Daigo hurting, bursts out, turtles for his life, then rushes in. Daigo takes it! Winner: Daigo

1st: Daigo Umehara
2nd: Miu
3rd: ID
4th: Mago
5th: Aznhitler
5th: Alex T
7th: Kono
7th: Eric Choi

Miu is a Japanse Player.

some info about Miu
MIU : An exellent GGXX player. He works in Shinjuku-SportsLand where VF arena. He says he'll enjoy this big tourney.

I didn't see french GG players, but I heard that French player called DTM won Soul Calibur 2.

GuiltyGear is still not big in Korean arcade, maybe GGXX# Reload on PS 2 can change that. : (

A french guy won the SC 2 tournament ... wow !
Very surprising this time ...

EDIT : It's Dan, wow, it's great for him !
Hopefully (for the us or jp players), there's not his little sis', she's as strong as him.

I wonder if we will see a game where there isn't one character who is the overwhelming choice in competition...is it even possible?

Well, Third Strike saw more variety:

1. K.O. (Yun)
2. Daigo (Ken)
3. KSK (Alex)
4. Ino (Makoto)
5. Hsien (Ken)
5. Ricky (Chun)
7. Nuki (Chun)
7. Mopreme (Chun)

And Ricky was *THIS* close to eliminating Daigo.

Hmmm, cool to see Alex there, he's not one of the "big five".

Did you know if there was any Remy there? If so, How did he do?

What about KOF? I mean, yeah, there are a lot of complaints about monotony in KOF, but it's Kyo/Iori/Terry/K'/Mai/Kim/Athena monotony (and usually with a bunch of more obscure characters like Billy, Choi, Joe, King, or Vanessa thrown in), not "Iori vs. Iori, followed by Iori vs. Iori, and now, for the grand finale... IORI VS. IORI!" monotony. It's an extremely unbalanced game, but it's unbalanced because it has a lot of low tier characters below the very robust top tier, not because somebody switched the priority settings a little too high on one character like they did with Gato in Mark of the Wolves.

Nearly all of the games played consistently at a high level (A3/A2, 3S, ST, GGXX, CvS2, MvC2, KoF '98/2002) have a group of about 4-6 characters used consistently in tournament play. Still not a large number considering most of these games have 30+ character casts, but definitely more than 1.
