'I'm not sure I even recognize this game anymore' - How much has Street Fighter 5 changed since Season 4 judging from EVO Japan?
EVO Japan played out last weekend and I'm simultaneously surprised and happy to report that I'm not sure I recognize this game. Catalyst, on the other hand, isn't as optimistic. We hash out the particulars of what we saw and what they might mean for Street Fighter 5 in 2020, plus Bandai deals with Leroy issues, and Dogura makes a tier list.
