EVO 2011 saw gamers from the around the world unite with one common interest, video games. I met teams of players from France, Germany, and Japan, but perhaps the most intriguing player I met came from the Amazon jungle-filled land of Brazil. Michael Akira Locke (a.k.a Comboman70) linked up with Mana Tank and Focus Fire and I sat down with him to get the skinny on just exactly what it is he does and why gamers in Brazil are forced to pay upwards of $150 per game.

So far in the RipTen Dojo series, I’ve been mainly discussing the player side of the experience: how to begin the training process, what you can learn from your losses, and how to prepare and what you can expect from your first tournament. In this week’s RipTen Dojo, we’re going to look at things from the other side of things. I find it surprisingly common to hear people say that they want to be able to run their own tournament.
I would love to enjoy fighting games. I just don't have the patients to learn them lol
I love these articles. I've never been that great at fighting games but they are helping me get a lot better.
