    Evo has to run 256 pools of 24 people, and run each of those pools down to 3 or 4 players in 2 hours. Then they have to take those 768 or 1024 qualifiers and run a tournament all the way down to 6. Then you add Kurt Angle to the mix? Your chances of finishing drastically go dow

    it's like its Tekken 5 again
    Picture is a version of the "we time traveled/to what year?" meme 1st panel [2 guys come through a wormhole] Guy 1: "We did it, we time traveled!" Guy 2: "But to what year?" 2nd panel Guy 1 [pointing at a person far away]: "Let me ask that guy over there" 3rd panel Guy 1 [yelling]: "Hey! Who's the most broken fighting game character?" Guy Over There [yelling back]: "Steve! He's OP as fuck!" 4th panel Guy 1 [to Guy 2]: "We are in 2005!"

    all the Melee fans upset that Hbox landed 4th instead of 3rd on the new Summer PG rankings are overlooking the key detail that jmook simply got that dog in him

    Imagine telling tournament attendees they have to shower & use deodorant if they want in the venue, while a top 5 player with a confirmed infection is casually walking around maskless in-between trips to the bathroom to vomit up some more blood

    Short thread of memorable moments involving Floe Due to worsening health issues after moving to Vegas, Floe wasn't able to attend much outside Evo. Instead, he used his popular twitch channel to restream numerous events while providing historical context about players & games

    Riot should’ve used “W” instead of “S” just so y’all get to say you have a W2 for the first time in your lives

    Unreasonably mad that 2xko named its buttons “S1” and “S2”. Those are names for tournament pools not fighting game inputs
