Crashtag and StaticGorilla are back with another episode of Double Tap! In the Fighter’s Corner, we do a deep dive into the state of Guilty Gear Strive as well as our full impressions on Testament, but is the game getting stale? After trying out the DNF Beta, we share our impressions on its online capabilities. In the Randoms of the FGC, the Crossup and the Smash Box are able to be used at EVO, Steam Deck news and HORI has a new carcade stick for PS4. In the Focus Attack, we take a look at Trash Talking in the FGC, and determine if it should be banned. Finally, Sol Badguy has made it into Dragon Ball Fighterz thanks to a mod in our Mod Highlight.

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.

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.
