EVO 2K12: coL. CC Filipino Champ takes UMVC3 title
Posted on July 08, 2012 by MikeV

After a lenghthy delay, the Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 grand finals were dominated by NorCal's coL. CC Filipino Champ. He faced for a second time a very strong LXG Infrint, with the team of Magneto, Dormammu, and Dr. Doom against Spencer, Nova, Sentinel. This set was not just a battle between two strong players but a battle between Nor and So Cal, but at the end Filipino Champ came out as EVO 2K12's UMVC3 champ. Here's the rest of the final standings:

1. coL.cc|Filipino Champ (Magneto, Dormammu, Dr. Doom | Others)
2. LXG|Infrit (Spencer, Nova, Sentinel)
3. FC|NYChrisG (Akuma, Dr. Doom, Morrigan | Others)
4. coL.cc|Combofiend (Nova, Spencer, Hawkeye | Others)
5. TA|Frutsy (MODOK, Captain America, Taskmaster)
5. Flocker (Zero, Hawkeye, Vergil | Others) 
7. EG|Justin Wong (Wolverine, Storm, Akuma | Others)
7. Y2J (Wolverine, Spencer, Magneto)

The surprise during the Grand Finals  was Justin Wong, who was favorited to win UMVC3 after being knocked out of SSFIV, was also knocked into Losers Finals and couldn't make a comeback. Like KOF13, hype was all over the place and made for great matches.

What did you think of the Xbox One reveal?

It was awesome! I already have one pre-ordered!!
It could have been better, but I think there's potential.
Microsoft needs to get their shit together before I buy this thing.
This piece of junk is going to fail faster than Windows ME.
