Gonna try to remember stuff said about the nemo match.
Based on twitter, the MM was set up by MarlinPie. FChamp plays the
first FT20. Loses. He said he bet $500 of his own money, plus other ppl
staking him, along with a ton of side bets between Americans
(Justin, Flocker, Chrisg, etc) and the Japanese players, such as mago,
abegen, etc). CJShowstopper (does he live at fgtv? dude is always there)
steps to ChrisG and says, YO GO GET OUR MONEY BACK. FChamp
mentions that Justin Wong told ChrisG not to play, since he and FChamp
have the same zoning game, and his experience is that Nemo's
team/playing style blows that up. He'd wanted Flocker to play, but no.
Everyone is confident that ChrisG got this. ChrisG loses, not sure
how much of it was his money or people staking him or what. I think CJ
also said that ChrisG sidebet on FChamp, so he also was trying to get
his own money back. So in all, FChamp assess that the Japanese
players via the MM and the sidebetting, took 6k from the American
players off Nemo's play. FChamp also called Nemo scrubby, doing
random nova supers, bionic arms, etc. CJ then calls Nemo "the best scrub
you'll ever play". I'm guessing he does a lot of semi safe stuff
playing with meter, a la Taekua, but we'll see once the matches are up
on complexity's website. Also, Justin Wong is apparently a god at
betting roulette quadrants, and everyone made their money back following
his run at the casino. Pretty good weekend for that guy, to say the
least.

For those that don't have subscription ill tell you what he said :
This was basically an Answer and question video . He was talking about
evo and the matches and he spoke about the money matches after the evo.
He states that after winning 800$ on the casino floor he decided
to play money matches with Japan marvel players. He was fairly confident
that he would beat Nemo. He says that he got beat fair and square .
He said Nemo had a unusual play style that he has never seen before. Cj
show stopper got on the stream and confirmed it and said that nemo was
one of the best he had ever seen, on the first match against Nemo,
champ has bet 500$ and other side bets go up in the thousands ... He
said USA probably lost $6000. He said after he lost to nemo in
first to twenty , they were in shock and decided that maybe Chris g had
the best chances of getting thier money back. Chris G didn't seem
to mind and he decided to play . He said flocker and justin Wong were
thier ,but they decided Chris G was thier best chances of winning. He
said that they recorded the matches and that most of them will be on the
cross counter site. During the nemo and Chris Match, Nemo at one point won 7 straight ! Cj thinks that Nemo was probably prepared to fight champ and Chris G at evo.
Champ just couldn't believe that Nemo didn't even make top 32 and
almost lost to mike Ross. They figured that they would have a great
chance at beating Nemo. The bets were in the few hundreds from multiple people and even mago was betting and collected several hundreds .
At the end of the clip , filipino champ says that he would like to play
Nemo for $20,000 lol . cj show stopper said he didn't think that was a
good bet. In terms of how Nemo beat champ and Chris g so decisively
, I guess we are gonna have to wait to see the videos . At one point in
the video stream , champ says that Nemo seem to have a "scrub"
style and he did a lot of random tech and supers and tac. As soon as
Nemo had the take downs it was pretty much over. Seems like he didn't
drop a combo .
