On November 19th, tournament organization Big House made an announcement (links below) stating they will be unable to host their online tournament. This announcement sent ripples through the smash and FGC community as the conversations spread on Twitter. Nintendo sent a cease and desist to the tournament organizer. The reason giving was in part due to Slippi, a netplay modification for Super Smash Bros. Melee PC mod.

 

The conversation with Ragnarok and Xedane was streamed live (link below) after the online tournaments. Thank you to my guest and for you the listeners for continuingto be awesome!
