Think it’s been kept very downplayed as even appearing as a main sponsor, Qiddiya didn’t have that major a presence at the event. EvoJ even before this I thought was a lot more overt, including their ads for the Dragon Ball theme park being built in Saudi 😬

It’s been… nice. Next year? Still feeling icky about Evo’s new owners but my faith in the FGC is reinvigorated, so I guess we’ll see.

Much too early to be here to sit through 7-8 hours of top 8s I’m not interested in just to have a good seat for the one I do wanna watch. Got in some 3rd Strike games beforehand at least
