Evo 2024 Special Round 1: The Event

Full house this week as we dig into Evo 2024! This was Mikey's first Evo, while Static was clocking in his ninth time at the event. We talked about everything from the new venue and accessibility to the highs and lows of the tournament matches. We also talk about Mikey's surprisingly good performance in Tekken using Panda, the impact of dealing with competitive anxiety in Street Fighter, and Static has a story about getting DQ'd. We discuss our favorite competitive moments in pools, and breakdown our thoughts on top 6 for the various games.
