Notes about the EVO Stream
Previous Beat-Tribe Cups would typically have a number of different arcade machines all connected to the video feed, and a video director would usually switch back and forth between matches that were happening concurrently, minimising any dead air time. However, due to the (assumed) resourcing and time constraints EVO Japan only had one main setup connected to the stream and the tournament would still be running matches in parallel. The consequence of this is that we miss out on seeing some other exciting matches, particularly during the Final 16 stage and beyond where both Semi Finals would play at the same time, but only one of them was streamed (and boy, what an epic match that was!)
