Why does the Jigglypuff guy just sit there and fall asleep when he gets a kill, thus giving the Fox guy a free kill every time?

Jigglypuff's Rest move cause it to fall asleep, but does massive damage/knockback provided Jiggs can get close enough to the opponent for their models to clip one another.

Are they gonna wait for SFV on ESPN or just get in as much as they can

To reiterate. ESPN2 is currently showing basketball. They will not be covering EVO until 10pm. They are only covering top 8 of SFV. There is no smash on ESPN nor ever was there going to be.

The question is what they will do for 40 minutes without the crowding getting bored out of their mind. Hopefully they do a show match or two and hype the crowd.

Well Played HungryBox! Despite missing a beat here and there on Dreamland, he played so, so well in a lot of other places.

It's a well deserved win and Armada looks really, really, really mad and autistic, so that's a small bonus.

EVO always does some kind of presentation before the final game, so they'll be fine filling time.

But regardless, those were easily the best finals of this EVO of now and all time. Good EVO anyone, see y'all in 2017, when Melee will rightfully be the main event.
