This week the Spicy Bois are discussing the future of EA Games, the season 13 legend pick rates, and our own favorite legends! They also cover our community's feelings on the new ranked season, as well as some hot takes from a legendary pro player.

Welcome to Double Tap, a podcast dedicated to the fighting game community. First in the Fighter's Corner, Guilty Gear Strive will have an event coming up, DNF Duel drops many short trailers and King Of Fighters XV made some repairs according to the patch notes, but some changes still need to be made. In the Randoms of the FGC, Crashtag reminds listeners about Capcom Fighting Collection, Infiltration is banned from major events, and Mezza found some more random information. Finally, Crashtag recently took a trip to a tournament for a new World Warrior segment and Cammy gets modded into UMVC3.

After a week off, we start by covering the most recent Overwatch League news stories from the past 2 weeks. Several teams are making some new player additions, including the Vancouver Titans, the Paris Eternal, and the Guangzhou Charge. We cover the potential reasoning behind each of these moves and where these teams hope to go from here with only a couple of weeks left to qualify for the Kickoff Clash.

We go on to recap the last 2 weeks of Overwatch competition as teams start to coalesce into shape and metas continue to evolve. We go game by game, covering standout player performances, major upsets, and meta changes and more. We are finally introduced to the APAC region, featuring several huge upsets and strong debuts.

We wrap up by looking ahead to next week's games as teams battle to lock in seeding for the upcoming tournament. We pick out which games we're most excited to see and talk about how we see rankings solidifying heading into the Kickoff Clash.

Bob and Mel are back with special guests Duranasaur and WillE to talk all things related to Classic WOW, TBC Classic, and Wrath Classic. First, we review what we have been doing in classic lately. Duranasaur and WillE fill us in on how far they have gotten in Sunwell and any tips or tricks they have picked up. Mel reviews the Varg raid progress where they were able to down more bosses in Sunwell!

We move on to discuss the Wrath of the Lich King Classic interview with Brian Birmingham. We all give our opinions on dungeon finder, raid lockouts, race and faction changes, faction imbalance, Wintergrasp, dual spec, and PVP in Wrath.

We close out the show with and interview with Rugs. We get to learn about Rugs background in WOW, what got him into content creating, and what the future has in store.

Nick, Chip, and Kurabara are back to continue talking about their experiences playing the Mass Effect Legendary Edition. This week, they are talking about Sur’kesh, and why we’re going there. They discuss the Krogan leader’s insistence that the genophage be cured. Nick brings up the Yahg that appears early in the mission, and they speculate on how the Yahg would fare against the Reapers in 50,000 years. They wonder if the Yahg can do poetry.

Wrex is back and they talk about the cure coming from Maelon’s research, and how Wrex has a mole in Sur’kesh. They talk about the logic of unleashing the Krogan is if a Krogan war truly is inevitable. They compare the decision to using your pitchers in game 7 of a baseball series. They consider the threat and how some of the characters are acting like the threat is theoretical.

Kurabara mentions this was the demo level for the Xbox.

They talk about Wrex getting off the shuttle and getting aggressive with the Salarians. They discuss Mordin’s reappearance. They talk about the pressure Mordin puts on himself and his path to atonement. They discuss Mordin’s decision to use human religion to name Eve. They wonder about what would have happened if Shepard did not survive Mass Effect 2. They mention the Liara-Wrex meeting. They talk about Padon Wix who serves as the Mordin replacement if he is not available. Kura talks about pressing the button. They mention that Major Kirrahe is back, and consider how all the characters are climbing the ranks together.

They talk about Eve handling herself in combat and how the Krogan females will help repopulate the species. They consider the Eve-Mordin relationship. They talk about how the mission escalates as Cerberus shows up. They mention that James wants to go to Tuchanka and he’d be a good fit. They discuss the Mordin-Javik conversation.

We're back after a bit of an unplanned break! We never talked about the pretty good story content in 6.1, so we're going to spend a lot of this episode on the main scenario. Spoilers, of course, abound. We've also got some discourse on everybody's favorite topic: third party tools! Plus a bit of PvP chat and Reaper discussion to round things out.

On this episode, we take some time and (try) to break down all the changes to the ranked RP system, with a little help from Reddit user Quarantine772. Afterwards, we talk about the brand new full release of Apex Legends mobile, complete with a brand new exclusive legend, Fade, who might seem more than a little familiar to Overwatch veterans...

The whole team is back for another loaded episode of Double Tap! This week in the Fighter's Corner, Street Fighter V saw a new patch, DNF duel released a new trailer, (possible Spoilers), and Guilty Gear Strive will have a one year event. Then, Nickelodeon All Star Brawl has a new character trailer featuring 3 new characters, WB Multiversus brings out a cinematic trailer along with new gameplay, and King of Fighters XV gets a huge patch. In the Randoms of the FGC, we remind you about Capcom Fighting Collection and a community member is having a tournament. Finally, we check out your answers to the community question about your least favorite fighting game mechanics.

Bob and Mel are back with special guests Ayle and Rugs talk all things related to Classic WOW, TBC Classic, and Wrath Classic. First, we review what we have been doing in classic lately. We go on to discuss the announcement of the Wrath of the Lich King Classic Beta and our thoughts on the timing. We then jump into discussion on all things related to phase 5 including the Isle of Quel'Danas and the Shattered Sun Offensive.

Phase 5 released on Tuesday, May 10th and Sunwell Plateau on Thursday May 12th. We wrap up the show talking with Ayle and Rugs about each guilds experience so far progressing through Sunwell. Check out how far each group made it, what they learned, and how they anticipate their progress will be next week!
