This episode of the Fighting Game Banter podcast gives 2025 its final playthrough, what worked, what didn't, why can't award shows understand the assignment, and what to look forward to in 2026. We also discuss the possible impact of U.S. Immigration Enforcement on local, national, and worldwide FGC events. We reached out to Run The Mix in Minnesota and asked if these political factors are influencing their attendance and participation as of late. The conversation emphasizes the resilience of the community amidst challenges, the importance of grassroots support and local organizers in maintaining the vibrancy of the fighting game scene.
