And here is the schedule for all the side tourneys of more interesting games

Here is another stream schedule from a guy with spiderman getting pissed on for an av:



Enjoy. The old OP is below

-----------
Evo is currently 69 days away, and it's the most exciting gaming event of the year. This also means lots of regions are having their annual tournaments, and fighting game companies are bringing their early builds around the world to show off. Some events have already happened but it's getting to the point where every other weekend someone is hosting a tournament and they're always streamed online.

Schedule

Subject to change

Live calendar found here --> http://shoryuken.com/tournament-calendar/

5/8 - 5/10 Texas Showdown 2015 - Houston
5/22 - 5/24 Combo Breaker - Chicago
5/22 - 5/24 Sunfest 2015 - France
5/30 - 5/31 FFM - Frankfurt
6/13 - 6/16 Dreamhack Summer 2015 (Dreamhack is a mish mash of pro gaming so FGs are usually not the focus, most likely just USFIV and maybe MKX, but they have really high production values)
6/19 - 6/21 SEAM 2015 - Bangkok
6/26 - 6/28 CEO 2015 - Orlando
7/17 - 7/19 The Main Event Evo 2015 - Las Vegas

The Games

USFIV - Street Fighter is good
UVMC3 - Insane people still play Marvel
Super Smash Bros Wii U - I've never watched any pro Wii U smash but I have to imagine it's more exciting than Melee
Guilty Gear Xrd - All ArcSys games own except BlazBlue
KI - Eh
MKX - Really boring to watch in my experience
P4AU - My personal favorite
Melee - Also find this boring.
Tekken 7 - Should be interesting to see how it shows
NO KOF FOR SOME loving REASON


Individual tourneys will have some or all of the above and other games. UNIEL has been popping up in some of these and Divekick will be at the Chicago tourney, since Iron Galaxy Studios always shows up at the local events.

yeah you have to sign up to get a general entry + extra for seats in the grand hall on sunday and every main stage event you want to enter pools for costs an extra 10 bucks on top of that

They're never going to make another game, and broken rear end Marvel vs Capcom 3 will still be main stage at Evo 2025 because there is no God
