It's episode 3 of the @Slips and Hippo show, and this week we're each giving our predictions for how the CEO tournament will shape out for Injustice 2. We also talk about the semi-retirement of a community figure, and why we play fighting games in general. Check out the very beginning of the show for an all new video from @Noble Raptor that now breaks down the whole top 8 of WOTG, along with our usual Match of the Week!

As always, let us know what you think, this is always a work in progress. If you'd like, we can be reached on Twitter at @KingHippo42 and @Slipkicks and @NobleRaptor. In the interest of trying to figure out what the community wants, I'll leave some topics up to you, the players! What topics do you want to see? What are you interested in hearing two old men talk give their hot takes on? Let us know in the comments below and we'll do our best to see if we can work it into the show!

We are returned! Death to the False Emperor!
The points are cumulative, in that they accumulate over the weeks. The act of gathering them is accumulating points but when the points are discussed as a whole, they are cumulative

I want Kronika to step on my face
Why do Americans struggle so much at pronouncing Bahrain? Lmao

Just bah-rain. Two syllables one of which is just a sound and the other is a proper English word.

Could be my shitty 5-yr old laptop speakers, but was this episode too quiet for anyone else?
Yeah that's my bad, I had a host of issues during recording, including a shoddy internet connection and a new mic stand I'm still trying to get used to. I thought it sounded okay when I was listening back, but I realize I had it turned all the way up instead of at a reasonable volume. Slips still sounds okay, but my end is particularly quiet.

My bad on this one, will improve next time!

Hippo seemed quiet, slips volume seemed normal. It seemed like hippo was too far from his mic or something


Edit: just saw hippos post above. My bad
