Comprehensive schedule http://shoryuken.com/2018/07/30/evo-2018-tournament-schedule-main-stage-streaming-schedule-and-commentary-team-revealed/

I just hope an American makes SFV top 8, let alone winning the thing. Punk recently tweeted that he's burned out (https://twitter.com/PunkDaGod/status/1021501817220464643) although he'll still be there and has been practicing. Folks have more or less filled his spot on Team America with Justin Wong, but that's a believe-it-when-I-see-it for me because I think Justin is benefitting a lot from the newness and turtle style of Menat, and that advantage will disappear against world top players who know the matchup. I think the USA's best chance for top 8 is with Du, Smug, and Punk. I think I'll lay down my prediction as Smug being the only American to make top 8. He's hot right now after his tear through E-League, and I think it could be a benefit mentally that there's no chance of character confusion. And I actually think he's more disciplined and smart under pressure than Du (partially inherent with Balrog not having an invincible reversal).

Predictions? Hopes? Is anyone here into DBFZ, out of curiosity? I'm not, but it should be fun to watch this weekend.
