Evo (Vegas) is this weekend. Any one watching? Any one going? If so, which games are you following or playing?

They're featuring the 8 main games (pictured) - Street Fighter VI, Tekken 8, Guilty Gear Strive, Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, Under-Night In-Birth II: Sys Celes, Mortal Kombat 1, Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, and the retro title for this year, Marvel vs Capcom 2.

There's also an "extended lineup" - with Rivals of Aether II, Blazblue Central Fiction, Capcom vs SNK 2, Virtua Fighter 5: REVO, King of Fighters XV, Samurai Shodown, Guilty Gear Xrd, and Killer Instinct (fairly sure both SS and KI are the recent ones, lol)

Haven't been able to follow much of it, but it does my heart good to tune in and see CvS2 and MvC2 going.

I'm hosting a day 2 watch party, and going to a final day watch party that's hosted by a local FGC group.

Personally I'm most interested in SF6 and Uni2. Going to have a good crowd and multiple screens set up at my place so we can have two or three of the Evo streams playing, plus one setup for casuals.

Sounds like a lot of fun!
