There’s no such thing as perfect when it comes to accessibility, but a concerted effort towards progress can lead to wonderful things.

〰️ An Example

#Blind #StreetFighter6 Player Steals Fighting Game Tournament's Hearts

Sven "BlindWarriorSven" Van de Wege, who's been blind since he was six years old, impressed at this year's #EVO

After turning on some accessibility settings—such as audio cues for character movement—and selecting their fighters, it was time for the battle to commence.

#EVO2023 Grand Finals post ✨

This event topped off the entire weekend. The matches were absolutely fucking insane. Getting to hear Jiyuna and Sajam on comms too for GGST and SF6 was awesome.

here's a flashlight POV video too from one of the concert moments. such an amazing crowd and crowd experience ​:ablobcatheartsqueeze:​​:ablobcatheartsqueeze:​​:ablobcatheartsqueeze:​

PS5 USB ports reportedly ‘melted’ at Evo 2023 esports tournament | Engadget https://www.engadget.com/ps5-usb-ports-reportedly-melted-at-evo-2023-esports-tournament-175954481.html?src=rss&guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5vcmVhZGVyLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAIRf5deof2TlNFoglepMdDaeCvQgJ--sdQVDLu0WWO5XA-KSABmoPLoQsSl9LpilcnnSVweHFoZ342UziPwiAbbkEVl34RVkQuP6_dr9e7Za8X6HQwX9AP_R05__n8gTcaOllj--5qdl6d8LB72AHJqYspUNpUsv0xldS0pEBeGA

The #Evo folks have posted said banger #StreetFighter6 intro track from #Evo2023.

USB-порти PS5 масово «плавились» на кіберспортивному турнірі Evo 2023 https://itc.ua/ua/novini/usb-porty-ps5-masovo-plavylys-na-kibersportyvnomu-turniri-evo-2023/ #Evo2023 #Консолі #Новини #Sony #Ігри #WTF #PS5 #USB

As this article points out, melting USB ports on the PlayStation 5 could be particularly problematic for #Evo in the future. Other #FGC tournaments *could* switch to PC or Xbox as appropriate, but Sony owns Evo.

On the other hand, I don't remember hearing about this at CEO, which also played #StreetFighter6 on PS5. So maybe something else was going on at #Evo2023? Hotter room? Setups jammed closer together?

I bet this can be "solved" by pointing a fan at the USB ports.

EVO Strive and SF6 top 6 last night were really good.

SF6 is a really dynamic and interesting game overall, and basically all of the mechanics came into play. I still love that burnout just peels off most of the layers, bringing the game back to somewhat-SF2 style fundamentals.

#evo2023 #ggst #sf6

I also love that they still play the "You're all free now" clip in all its 360p glory at the end of the stream.

Traditions and community are important. #Evo2023

Really cool thing from #Evo2023 is the winners from all over the world: the US, China, Sweden, Japan, Pakistan, Jordan/UAE. Finalists from even more. Competitors from more still.

Pretty pretty pretty neat.

Like the man said, "Fighting games are something so great."

Seven thousand and eighty-two knock-outs later, AngryBird is the first #StreetFighter6 Evo Champion. What a Grand Finals. Only reset of Sunday, I think. What an amazing first top 6. This game is SO GOOD. #Evo2023

Fun fact: Luke is theoretically better at fighting Ken than Blanka #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

The first #StreetFighter6 Grand Finals at #Evo2023: AngryBird in winners' and Mena in losers'

https://www.twitch.tv/evo

Hahaha! Blanka-chan in the second-last round. First command-grab in the last round. What a set by Mena. Punk looked so strong, but not strong enough. #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

I really thought Mena might have passived himself out of that set, but he takes out Tokido in the—what—sixth classic match so far tonight? Punk vs Mena in losers' final. #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

I swear, Mena only plays Luke so people get less of a read on his absolutely filthy Blanka. #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

I really love Tokido and Mena staring each other down, then immediately cracking smiles when they sit down. #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

This whole top 6 is just bangers. AngryBird sends Punk down. Did a lot of different rushes to keep Punk on his toes. Tokido or Mena will have to deal with AngryPunk. Ken in Grand Finals! #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

AngryBird looks way more solid against Punk than he did against Kakeru. They do play a lot, so I guess it makes sense. #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

Punk loses his first *game* of #Evo2023 in the #StreetFighter6 Winners' Final

This whole top 6 can just be reused as the highlights for next year. Mena takes out Haitani in a great set. #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023

Kakeru had that... until Tokido embraced the Ken ethos. #StreetFighter6 #Evo2023
