Considering EVO became EVO in 2002(according to its wiki page at least), Justin was 16 or 17 at the time!
Everyone shifting from Daigo after his terrible performance recently. Beating Sabin isn't much of an achievement.
Damn I missed this Justin Wong talk.
True story:
Justin Wong goes around wearing a 15 numbered jersey sometimes.
One Mike "Miek Russ" Ross asked him "hey Justin why do you have the 15 on there?"
And Justin replies in the most nonchalant manner "oh that was how old I was when I first EVO"
Mike Ross "......"

Not sure if he counts, as he's not a competition player, but Desk is.
As you know, the spectrum runs really wide, and there are definitely more than a few players out there who show some of the characteristics.

JWong took Alex/Guile to grand finals in Canada last weekend.
Justin probably count his Battle By the Bay 2001 win as his first EVO win, Battle By the Bay didn't become EVO until 2002 and he was 16 by then.
Also, lots of FGC characters in this video, some are barely recognizable, some with weird ass "strategies" lol.

Will he be streaming Asian CPT events at his new job or something?
Spooky said he will be spending time in the Philippines at the X-Split office.

So who's all the notable names going to Stunfest this weekend
He's the project manager for improving XSplit, he's not going to have much time to stream events anymore.
SonicFox pretty much dominates, or is at least amongst the best, in pretty much every game he plays.
Injustice
Mortal Kombat
Skullgirls
UNIEL

Daigo will take Evo this year, wait and see. He's been sandbagging this whole time and waiting for the perfect moment to catch people off guard.
American plaeyrs going for the easier points at Toryuken.

BST?
BeST?
Nice, so we're seeing a new premier event champ!
Copy and pasted from Stunfest's registered players page, that's how he registered. Presumably pimping his BeasTV stream.
They're also probably cheaper to travel to if you're in the US. Props to Gootecks for taking it upon himself to defend the US honor at Stunfest.

I'm heading to Toryuken, but its more an excuse to wear my phil kessel Pens jersey in Toronto than anything else.
Much more looking forward to combo breaker next weekend

Not really in DOA5 his brother usually can beat him and the top in that game they all trade places. It's probably the one game where it's fluid where the top is. JC akira WAXED everybody.

I know kwiggle is better, but he said "At least among the best" and hes definitely in the top
i admire players like sonicfox and Ryan Hart for being able to perform exceptionally in a variety of games
i used to want to be like that, but i don't have the time to be as good as i want to be in multiple games honestly. id probably play namco if I dropped vf, truly wish SC scene were stronger

Great read, thanks.
This is very helpful in actually improving yourself one goal at a time instead of seeming improve something only to relapse back into your bad self.
Thanks for this.
