Fatality's faith in Captain Falcon skyrocketed with his Version 8.0.0 buffs according to latest Super Smash Bros. Ultimate match up chart
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate saw its biggest balance shake up in many, many months recently with the Version 8.0.0 update that dropped alongside new fighter Min Min which has many players going back and seeing just how strong some characters are now.
No one has been more enthusiastic about the buffs than perhaps Fatality, who compared Captain Falcon's changes to waking up on Christmas morning, and that feeling's apparently stuck judging by his new match up chart for the fighter.

This fan-made Mortal Kombat PlayStation 5 design is so cool it has Ed Boon wishing for crossplay
The PlayStation 5's simple white and black design makes it the perfect canvas for fans to edit and come up with their own looks for the next-gen console. From basic color swaps to themed concepts that center around characters or franchises, we've seen quite a few custom PS5s since the upcoming console's look was revealed.

Of course, this caught the attention of Mortal Kombat Co-Creator, Ed Boon, and has the game maker wishing for crossplay between the two upcoming next-gen consoles.
Who are the bottom 20 characters in Season 5 of Street Fighter 5? EventHubs composite tier list part one
It's time for the seasonal EventHubs staff tier list extravaganza as Catalyst, MajinTenshinhan, DreamKing, and I have all put together our Season 5 tier orderings for the cast of Street Fighter 5.
We've averaged all four lists to come up with one master opinion and are going through each character to explain, argue about, and generally discuss why they ended up where they did.
Core-A Gaming highlights the importance of video game commentary
Towards the end of 1980, an NFL game was broadcasted with no commentary as part of an experiment. In the latest Core-A Gaming video, it was mentioned that this was done because Don Ohimeyer, sports broadcaster Hall of Famer, believed that the ratings of the games might improve with the game's action speaking for itself.
Based on the fact that this was done only once, we can see just how well this ended up working out. This got me thinking that it's fairly easy to take commentary for granted during fighting game tournaments.
Masahiro Sakurai: After the 5 remaining characters for the Fighters Pass Vol. 2 are released, the continuous development since Smash 4 will end

Does Min Min have the longest grab range? Is her Ramram ARM considered to be a projectile? Min Min myths in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate addressed
Min Min is the latest challenger to join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's massive roster. As such, there's plenty to explore and learn about in regards to Min Min in the game.

If successful, the NBA's 'bubble format' restart could pave a new path for the return of offline fighting game competitions
The fighting game community has been without offline major tournaments thanks to COVID-19 for months now, and while we're making do with online echoes in the meantime, it's safe enough to say that the majority of the FGC is still actively hoping every day to see news indicating that we can return to our more traditional routines.
While it's surely not an apples to apples comparison, the National Basketball Association has similar goals as Commissioner, Adam Silver, and the powers that be around him have hashed out an endeavor to create a space safe for in person competition that, if successful, may provide a model that the FGC can follow.
Alex Myers tries to be just like iDom and perform a difficult Poison set up but it doesn't quite go as planned...
When a top notch player puts a character on the map with a big win, it's not uncommon for others to be inspired to try that fighter out themselves. IDom's big win with Poison at Capcom Cup 2019 has certainly turned a lot of heads toward a character that the community wasn't quite sure of initially, and his high-damage set ups and impeccable zoning are making Poison look a lot more formidable these days.
Alex Myers is trying Poison out now in Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition, and the popular Sakura player recently shared a clip in which he tries to emulate what iDom is doing with the character. Unfortunately, being like iDom is a lot more difficult than it looks.

A completely unique character in the Super Smash Bros Ultimate roster who fights at a range that's hard to get used to — EventHubs Min Min impressions
Min Min was released for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate a bit over two weeks ago and the Smash community has been hard at work trying to decipher the character in all of her intricacies and trying to figure out her strengths and weaknesses. This took a bit longer than usual for us here at EventHubs too, as you'll notice this is a bit later than our character impressions pieces would usually be (though, admittedly, there's also been a lot of big unsavory news going on in the fighting game community as of late which had to take priority).
Since her release, both myself and my colleague Justin "AdaptiveTrigger" Gordon have put the hours in to try and figure out exactly how we feel about Min Min's role in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and how she'll end up in the game's meta. While I'm much more of a casual player as far as Super Smash Bros. goes, Justin focuses on the game competitively, so you can expect our opinions and impressions of the character to be focused in slightly different directions, with mine probably more suited for people who only focus on Smash at a low or intermediate level and Justin's being more pro-aligned. Without further ado, let's see what the Mintendo Noodle House representative from ARMS had to offer us.
Joker and Hero amiibo releasing on October 2, 2020 for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
It's been some time since the last batch of amiibo were released for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While the entire base roster have amiibo, only the Piranha Plant is currently represented this way as far as DLC characters are concerned.
During the "Mr. Sakurai presents an ARMS fighter" presentation, we learned that prototypes for Joker and Hero were developed as Masahiro Sakurai had shown them off during the video.
Guest characters in NetherRealm Studios' titles are the result of the developers being fans of action movies according to Ed Boon
We've seen a lot of guest characters join NetherRealm Studios' fighting games since 2011 when Freddy Krueger first became playable in Mortal Kombat 9. Between the Mortal Kombat and Injustice series, characters like Jason Voorhees, Predator, Leatherface, Alien, Hellboy, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Terminator, Spawn, and RoboCop have also been seen duking it out with one another.
During an interview with GameSpot, Ed Boon was asked about the inclusion of these characters. "What is it like to be creating a game that is effectively a child's play session come to life?" asked GameSpot.
Dabuz releases his early 8.0 tier list for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with Min Min included

Did you know Menat could have fought with her fists instead of an orb? Capcom revisits Street Fighter 5 concept art for Rose's apprentice
Menat will likely go down as one of the most well-designed newcomers to join the cast of world warriors in Street Fighter 5, but the developers apparently had quite the long process of getting her to the character we know today.
Capcom is back again digging through the SF5 concept art archives as inspiration for their fan-led costume designing contests, and this time it's for one of Menat's early designs as a hand-to-hand fighter under a different name.
Tokido reveals his Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition tier list, continuing the push that Seth is one of the best characters in the game
Without the usual major tournament circuits going on this year, it's been more difficult for everyone to get a grasp on how their fighting games are continuing to develop at a high level, but that doesn't mean the meta has stopped moving forward — especially for the professionals who need to stay on top of changes.
Rohto|Tokido appeared on the most recent Topanga stream to break down and discuss his Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition tier list alongside BST|Fuudo and HIVE|Moke to pick his brain on the rankings.
