We're just two days away from the official kick-off of EVO 2019 and that means it's time to talk about what we expect to see, what we don't expect to see, and what the hell Capcom could possibly do to satisfy Street Fighter 5 fans at this point.

Also, Catalyst kicks his own ass, Filipino Champ gets in trouble for pulling back the curtain on Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, I try to explore the disconnect between SF5 and some of its fans, and Street Fighter League makes a boo-boo
