If the connection is bad, the only choice is to coin flip or just play. If I play against someone I know well or have as a friend on Steam, at least I can make sure that I can play with them with a fine connection. I don’t like the online format because the connection is random. What are your general impressions of this online-format Evo? I didn’t expect to do good, I just play like I do every day and try to have fun with it. I don’t count this as a success until I become a champion, and I can’t count Evo Online as Evo. You reached the top 4 of Evo 2021 Online.
We reached out to the tournament favorite Book and asked him about his experience. Regardless, any of these Top 8 competitors are strong and experienced enough to win the entire event under the right circumstances. I am personally rooting for Cuddle_Core (who defeated me in our pool's grand finals), and I expect either her or Binchang to win the entire event. There are dozens and dozens of monstrously strong players who deserve to win, but only 8 of them will have the chance at the top in the finals. The current amount of Tekken talent in North America is astounding, especially in this online era.
What's your take on the general level of competition, looking at the final top 8? Who do you reckon will take it all home? I am very fortunate to have such a supportive and faithful community. The excitement was also enhanced because I had over 100 viewers cheering me on in my stream's chat during all of my matches. The stakes were higher, and I wanted to do my best for myself and for my Twitch audience. However, the online Evo run certainly felt more thrilling and suspenseful than just playing ranked mode online. I've actually never been to a real-life tournament, so I don't have that sort of experience to compare it to. This was more than a pleasant surprise, and it feels like a worthy accomplishment to succeed like this while streaming the entire run to my Twitch audience.ĭoes this event feel like it's real Evo, or does it feel just like sitting at home like you do every day? Does it feel different from, say, just playing ranked mode in Tekken 7? I currently consider myself more of a content creator rather than a serious competitor in the Tekken scene. I haven't been competing in Tekken much at all lately, and I genuinely didn't expect to make it out of the initial pools. Reaching Top 48 is absolutely a success in my book. When three players of that level are all playing, it’s hard to pick a definitive number one.įor the perspective outside of Top 8, we asked for Chenzho's opinion on the event.

The Top 8 is full of potential winners, but I think the players who have the highest chance are Shadow 20z, Cuddle_Core, and Anakin. Who do you think is the favorite to win it all? But playing online at home, we’re limited as we can’t play the other countries because the online is not as good. At offline, the best of the best from all over the world come to play. What are your impressions of this online-format Evo?Įvo Online is okay, it brought some of the best NA had to offer, but there’s nothing quite like Evo offline. But at the same time, he’s the one person that knows me best, so I have to be extremely careful playing him. I’m pretty confident that if I can remain calm and take the first game, I have a shot at winning. How confident are you that you can beat him? You've met at some tournaments this year, but Evo is a different beast. You reached the top 8 of Evo 2021 Online, and now you will have to face your brother. We reached out to the latter and asked about his chances. In NA's winner's bracket, we have a matchup of two brothers – Shadow 20z vs Joonya 20z. You can look up all the schedules, brackets, and results at the Evo 2021 Online event page below: This article will be updated throughout Evo 2021 Online to keep you in the loop, so make sure to bookmark it and come back to check if your favorite player made it in Top 8!

Tekken 7 is the only game defending the pride of the 3D fighters at this year’s Evo main event. After all, the main regions are participating in it, and we get the ability to see the best of the best at their best. Evo 2021 Online is finally here! We’re all used to it being the main attraction for any given year in the fighting game world, and although we only have the Online variant in 2021, the hype is still there.
