Leo is a mad man. I don't care that he's the best player, I am glad that he won.

Smash top 8 took 2.5-3 hours. I don't know what other games did, but that seems long.

I just bought 100 dollars of fighting games I'll never play because I am bad. Good Evo as always. Wish it were longer, but alas. Had fun fellas and lady fellas

Even BBtag took over 2 hours with 20 second matches because Evo is eSports + choice + epic.

Afte listening to the commentators shamelessly and endlessly fellating Tweek, I made sure to enjoy their voices getting a little quiet, worried and sad as the tables turned. I only wish we could have heard all the USA! USA! chants from the crowd slowly dying down too.

I mean if they were cheering for Tweek its because the dude has a reputation for choking in the Grand Finals of Super Majors and nobody likes to see that happen, but no go off I guess?

It was funny to see them try and make of a horse race out of a man being murdered before a live audience.

Tweek’s gonna find a way. Tweek will turn it around. Tweek... :ohdear:

I do feel bad for him though, letting victory evade you like that has gotta suck.

lol, the commentators where bad. The part where she was proyecting how guys ugly guys hit on her in the middle of the match was the most :psyduck: moment this whole evo

Why did they start criticizing the french guys shirt? Was it because of the donkey patch?

Yeah Vikkikitty and D1 yesterday were waaaay better announcers I thought, and was disappointed to see they weren't also doing top 8.

They had the D1 and the rest of the Black Plague (before anyone says anything, that's the name D1 came up with for them) doing in house commentary. Wish we could of gotten that to be honest, that's always a treat.

They were the same guys doing commentary at Smash Ultimate Summit, yeah? I thought that was pretty fun to watch, even the after-tourney stuff.

I thought everything was fun to watch but the only game I'm good at is SSBU because it's the only fighting game I can convince my friends to play. Well, that and PPT.

I own a fight stick that collects dust under my TV because none of my friends are into games where men hit other men. It gets some use around this time of year when I watch people who are far better than me during this weekend in the summer before it gets packed up again after a week or two. 😑

It's common with competitive events. I'm not going to demand the venue burnt to the ground for these transgressions but going "Whaaaaat? Nooooo that doesn't happen..." is silly.

I'm not American, and you are also ignoring that despite being losers, MKLeo was the heavy favorite in that set for multiple reasons. You are making wild assumptions about a scene you don't really fully know it seems.

I mean, the commentators were hype when it was looking like a real match then started to fade when it became more and more apparent that Tweek had just kinda fallen over dead at some point between games 3 and 4 of the first set and Leo was just beating on a propped-up corpse en route to his first place finish.

Like, I don't think anyone was under the impression the set just wasn't over after set 2, game 1, but they had to find a way to talk about that set for two more matches besides just 'Tweek's confidence has collapsed so hard it's formed a black hole that's sucked all the life out of his game.' Leo was the better player and deserved his win, but the way Tweek went out was ugly and made the rest of the set so hard to watch. Or commentate for.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
