COACHING CAN DEFINITELY HELP OUR SCENE! The topic of coaching came up once again in the FGC. And although it's been talked about on this show before, James has not dedicated an entire episode to the topic. So here is James's take, and yes, he thinks coaching should absolutely be allowed in the FGC! == TIME STAMPS == 0:00:00 Intro 0:04:02 More Roles For Players 0:06:05 Officializing Coaches / Making Rules 0:09:38 No Realtime Coaching 0:12:18 Great Potential Coaches In The FGC 0:13:44 Old Man James / Not Enough Roles 0:17:33 Providing A Future For Players 0:22:19 Ramifications Of Coaching On Wins / Schedules 0:28:18 Deal With It!

THIS GAME AIN'T FOR NO BEGINNERS! James didn't get to play much of the Alpha Lab, but from what he experienced and heard from others, this game is not a simple game by any stretch of the imagination. People may think the game is supposed to be beginner friendly with the one-button Special Moves, but this might be one of the more execution heavy games in a while!

YOU'RE WELCOME. Xiao Hai's victory was made so memorable by the amazing moment he had with his wife on stage! His speech and dedication to her was the heart warming moment we needed in the FGC!

ONE OF THE MOST SURREAL EXPERIENCES THE FGC HAS AFFORDED ME! Somehow, through some weird twist of fate, I had the opportunity to hang out with Bill Walton for almost a whole day specifically to talk to him about Fighting Games. He was really wise and had a lot of really interesting advice and such. Obviously very sad at his recent passing, but that I can say we crossed paths at some point is definitely a blessing.

HE DID IT! HE DID IT! AND THE US IS FINALLY NOT WINLESS SINCE SFIV!!! Punk the mad lad did it! He won Evo, and while I'm super happy for him, there's a lot of other interesting tidbits and data about the SF6 tournament at Evo thanks to some of our good friends like CatCammy6 and such. James talks all about SF6 at Evo! == TIME STAMPS == (Sorry no time stamps, just didn't have to time to timestamp everything before needing to leave the country!)

VIEWERSHIP, VIEWERSHIP, VIEWERSHIP! The same things get brought up every year after Evo, namely the prize money. But there's a lot more to discuss for this year, such as the new venue and the issues that arose from the queue to get into the arena! It was kind of a blow up, so how should they fix it?

HAS EVO STRAYED TOO FAR FROM BEING A TOURNAMENT? Some people (most of whom don't attend Evo anymore) have criticized Evo for becoming too much of a convention as opposed to being a tournament as it used to be. James weighs in on this, and talks about why Evo continues to... well... evolve!
