All rise! Mezza and Crashtag plead their sides of the case as they go back and forth about the hot “Focus Attack” topic on Smash players having a VIP room away from the community, and some heated rivarly/beef between G2|WestBallz & TSM|Leffen. Never leaving out the important updates they bring you some hot Mai action in DOA5, some crazy SFV raqe quit talk, and many more game updates. They also welcome a special “Travel Segment,” on ECT2016, and “Randoms In the FGC” is a little light but packed full of interesting social media tactics from some companies.

Hosts

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.

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.
