If CB isn’t already dead outside of my understanding, it will be. And if CB goes, EVO goes too. We’re done for the year boys. Pack it up.
Looks like the Call of Duty World League is finally bigger than EVO.
I’m good, but thanks!
If I ever want stuff like that, I’ll just lay tracks down in Audacity. It’s all for personal shots and giggles anyway.
Evo would be fine if they just ban Smash players.
All those Smash players in one room would be ground zero

Go back and read the posts I made about it. We’ve had an incredible amount of people not understanding the situation but being loudmouths about it.
Any eveny in the next two months is effecticvely canceled. There’s no pretending they’re gonna fire because after X amount of cases, cities are gonna have to start doing quarantines proactively as preventative measures.
Then comes the issue of flare ups foe the rest of the year. By flare ups I mean that the virus resurfaces and we gotta go through the whole thing again.
Its slow moving at first but everybody has to shut it down.

That’s what I fear. I may be unable to go to my first invitational because of this.

My Tuesday local is hosting a goddamn MELEE tournament now. Fuck that. CRTs and BO are bad enough without those dudes being the nastiest of the nasty.
Smashers are like that one enemy in a beat-em-up that fucking suck when they show up, then in the next level they’re red now and they suck even more: Those are melee players.
But none of them are showing symptoms cause they have 3 stooges syndrome:

Whenever I think Capcom is not in touch with their fan base I remember this is Juri’s first appearance in SFV.

They have marketing experts.

We all need to immediately start putting dead crabs in our pockets.

If E3, GDC, fucking NBA, and potentially Formula One are getting hit by Corona, you best be damn sure EVO will follow suit. That is, of course, unless MrWizard values his mcrib bucks more than he does health of competitors flying from across the globe
I wonder what’s the situation with the virus in Japan, since Toushinsai and KVO are also likely to be cancelled. And if there’s no Toushinsai - there’s no Cooperation Cup this year either, for the first time since 2002
And of course honorable mentions go to XO20, Gamescom, Tokyo Games Show, The Game Awards, Combo Breaker, VSFighting, Celtic Throwdown, South-east Asia Major, Viennality, all the Comic Cons across USA, and much more
Capcom Cup and ArcRevo will just be done online lol

The best thing everyone can do is shut EVERYTHING down for the next two months. Companies and people thinking that this shit doesn’t apply to them will be the reason this lasts all the way until next year. People have to understand this isn’t all about you, it’s about everyone.

With potential travel bans in effect, the choice may be taken out of Mr. Wizard’s hands.
