This had to have been the worst evo of all time, the incessant ads and massive downtime between matches suck out all the excitement.

I want to watch the finals, but the sheer amount of ads is making me consider tuning out.
Sony need to tone it down, plus it seems weird seeing playstation tournaments everywhere, instead of Evo, makes me wonder will a future ki actually be allowed at Evo, as a main event game (As obviously it can't be held on a playstation system)
Then again, we actually need a new ki game first.
Really enjoyed all the rollback/crossplay announcements so far though, and the dbfz finals were insane & I'm enjoying the kof top 8.
Edit:
Hopefully the Hadou can deliver.

Burning some EX meter to push-block Sony away for a moment.
But can he last the full set?

Hope we don't get adverts straight after grand finals too.Burning some EX meter to push-block Sony away for a moment.

It's been dire.
ZJZ is probably going to speed run this too.

So many ads that Top 8 in a lot of the games went on late into the next morning for me. If it like this next year, I'll just skip the live broadcasts and catch the vods later

I feel for the folks watching live without an internet funnyman in the corner to distract from the shilling.
Between that, the selection of palatable nobodies accompanying Tasty Steve,
On the upside, Markman's T-shirt promo getting cut short during Tekken Top 16 was pretty funny in the context of that tweet.

Muppet rip and regular rip, legit made me laugh!
Fighting ZJZ just doesn't look like a fun experience.

I only know of Spag from that recent US vs EU Tekken showdown where we was commentating next to Steve, but that was enough to know lol. I'm UK, and still think he was overcompensating like a madman
A certified muppet in the way only a london lad can be.

One of my fave sets ever, ruined by the painful commentator (the one who looks like Sheldon), who was in love with Steve, probably even more annoying than spag! Haha
Kusuro ran away with America's money and never returned after his event.
Bodied them in guilty gear accent core and then beat America in umvc3, where everyone kept hassling him for money matches afterwards.

Tekken next, wonder if we will finally get a Tekken 8 reveal.
Tbh, I would happily take a Tekken 7 series x/ps5 upgrade, with rollback/crossplay and NO fight your next rival though!

Never too late to jump back in. People sleep on fighting games but they are actually one of the deepest genres you can pickup in video games. They are more than ‘button mashing’ games and the rabbit hole goes very deep. If you know you know.

Getting bodied, getting body pillowed, I guess they're not so different.That was one fierce Meitenkun player.

Hadou over ruling the adverts like a champion.

I've always been more of the 2D type fighting games. Other than DOA

The Tekken tease was terrible imo.
Bed time for me, it's 1am, I'm knackered, work tomorrow & I can't bare anymore adverts.
As I've spent 60% of tonight watching the same advert over and over it feels like.

Glad knee won with a Tekken character. Geese sucks, 2d fighters suck. Go jump and fireball somewhere else.

The stream's framerate or pacing is off for the game capture. Been like that all day. Looks horrible.
Also, some snowflake twitch mod, who probably has never even been to EVO, decided to permaban me for saying Mr. Wizard did nothing wrong. What a pussy. I don't look at that spam anyway.

Theres side streams & other sites too so its prolly more like half a million viewers minimum.

Melty Blood was amazing for anyone who watched that. The Grand Finals of that one went right down to the last match.
