StaticGorilla is back with Crashtag and Mezza from First Attack and he brought with him a special guest, the organizer of the event and CEO Champion: Mono! Mono just finished up the tenth anniversary of First Attack in San Juan, Puerto Rico and StaticGorilla came back as a World Warrior. First, we talk details about the history of the event, what went well this year, and what can be learned. Then we asked about what he’s looking forward to in 2022 including his competitive side, as he is still competing in a high level in Street Fighter V. Next we picked his brain on any advice he would like to give out and finish off with reminiscing on arcade and FGC culture on the island.

Hosts

Andres Mirandes

Video gaming runs in his blood and competition plagues his mind. From the earliest days in the now extinct arcades, to the eSports competitive scene, he looks forward to the next game to test his skills. No stranger to rising salt levels.

Jeremiah Ward

Got his start gaming with his two cousins and brother at his aunts house. They had to always play in secret, but he fell in love with fighting games when he got his first taste of an arcade in Maryland. Now looks to grow the community.

Gabriel Medina

I've been playing video games for a while now. I enjoy racing games, RPGs, but spend most of my time with fighting games. My first goal was to get better than my brothers, but now I strive to be better than most while also teaching others.
