    EVO is fast approaching again. It's running a little earlier this year, from July 11 - 13.

    I'll be heading over this year. Are any of you doing similar?
    Will there be an all nighter again?

    God I hate making short opening posts.

    I believe at least one well known Marvel player is making the trip...

    Irish invasion of Evo would be an amazing trip. We should make arrangments for us all to give it a go?!



    No Ladno, I'm not running an event to fund you to go, you can just pay like the rest of us

    Not long now till Evo kicks off. I'll be away at a wedding that weekend though, so I won't be watching much of it. However, I wouldn't mind scoping a few fights when nobody is looking. Are there any good Twitch apps out there for Android phones so I can try to catch a fight or two over the weekend?

    Sorry for being quiet on the scene, fellas! Life got a lil' hectic and for a bit I wasn't sure if it'd be happening, but I am thankfully gonna be there on the day! Yeah, I'm gonna have to train hard for Flux. I'm working on my tech and pleading with my router each day for good matches. If I'm on stream, I'll do my best to put up a show. If not, know that I'll give it what I've got!
    EDIT: From Lee's pool, I can see hi im nasty. He's pretty good, IMO, but also on the far end of the pool. Good luck either way, everyone.
    DOUBLE EDIT: A reminder that if anyone wants to help me practice on XBL, my gamertag's Mardyke Raider and I'd be happy to play anytime.

    FG drama is always about the most ridiculous stuff.

    Watching Smash and need to know. Are Peach and Daisy separate characters or is it palette swaps?

    Watching the stream already. Infiltration is looking beast, whiff punishing with sweep like an animal. Are the Street Fighter semis at 1am? think I've worked that out right.

    Dieminion with those clutch wins, best match I've seen in a very long time.

    SF has the best commentators, James Chen always breaks it down as to why a particular decision was smart/foolish.

    The hall, the commentary, the ads. The Smash commentary team was really sharp earlier. Everything just seems more professional and better defined.

    Yes, they're palette swaps.

    Sheik/Zelda are seperate characters (as are Samus/Zeru Suit Samus in Brawl).
