Here’s your Sunday finals lineup
We’re less than two weeks out from EVO 2018, a fact that both excites me (because it’s fun to watch old rivalries play out on a big stage) and terrifies me (because time moves way too fast). As ever, the fighting game tournament will culminate on Sunday (August 5) with finals spanning multiple games.
Evo 2018 Sunday Order, August 5th.
1) Guilty Gear Xrd: Rev2
2) Super Smash Bros. Melee
3) Tekken 7
4) DragonBall FighterZ
5) Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition— Joey Cuellar (@MrWiz) July 23, 2018
EVO’s Joey Cuellar reiterated that “the Sunday order has never been determined by entries.” On that note, he also recently shared the registration numbers. Dragon Ball FighterZ leads the way this year.
Evo 2018 Numbers – #Evo2018
1) DragonBall FighterZ – 2575
2) Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition – 2484
3) Tekken 7 – 1538
4) Super Smash Bros. for WiiU – 1354
5) Super Smash Bros. Melee – 1351
6) BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle – 1178
7) Guilty Gear Xrd: Rev 2 – 629
8) Injustice 2 – 363— Joey Cuellar (@MrWiz) July 21, 2018
Here’s hoping you get to catch any and all finals you want to see live at a reasonable time. I wasn’t sure if Street Fighter V would close out the festivities like normal, but I’m glad to see the tradition stand.
