6:59 what blows my mind is that, even though Daigo got 2nd place in 3rd strike that year, he still got 1st place in SF2 AND GuiltyGear XX at the same time.
I can't believe I got half of these right. I only got into FGC in 2018 with smash (melee) and didn't really get into actual FGC until this past year with SF6 and Tekken 8. Missed 7 (by one year).
I thought it was Ryan Hart or Tokido but when Steban said DOA or MK it instantly clicked with me... Perfect Legend. I miss him btw. Such a fantastic player. Also, asking Justin who's has the most EVO wins was hilarious lmao.
@@BrokenTekk True but I wish I could see him more on the top competition. I always enjoyed his play in MK games. People move on from high level it's okay, It's just a fan thing. Imagine Prime PL against the Chilean twins, Ninjakilla and Sonic fox? That'd be neat.
I'm actually on tilt about the winner of the Evo 37 year. My brain remembered it as happening in 2005 and I remembered Nuki winning that year. I remembered the winner in 05 right, but because I was wrong about which year 37 was it made me second guess which year was which winner
I looked for EVO history and this was the first thing that showed up I don't know anything about evo history but like gaming, it's a miracle it exists at all also the interviewer is wearing an awesome shirt if you ever do this again - and/or are reading this comment - put people's names/socials everytime they are on screen
Let’s see how I do. ✔ - Battle by the bay. Surprisingly many people don’t know that. ✔ - It was Mario Kart DS in 07 think. Cause of a car sponsor or something. ✔ - It must be Tekken. They did well during the dark age. ✔ - It's JWong he farms old games. ✔ - Either JWong or sonicFox. But, for mainstage it’s probably sonicfox. 🗙 - I feel like this is soul calibur or VF but, I don’t know any players from those games. IDK i'll just say a random player, Mocchii. X ✔ - 2004, 20th anniversary 🗙 - It was a Japanese yun player but the name isn't coming to me. X 🗙 - No idea, let say 2008 🗙 - It was in mandalay bay other than that uh: Marriott, Aria, Vdara, and Caesars Palace. 2/5 6/10 not too bad.
Aye, i got most of these too. Im proud to say i knew that Perfect Legend answer immediately because of his beef with Sonicfox, he would brag about that endlessly lol
tasty steve won in my heart i missed the 2d/3d one, franchise beside sf, evo moved to vegas one, and hotel one, i didn't exactly know the answer to player with most diverse wins but it was an easy guess, i have read the evo articles on wikipedia multiple times very interesting, also on evo 2004 another interesting thing happened which gave birth to collusion rule.
Justin is a legend but your quote for the last question is wrong, at the end he didn’t get a perfect record. He said marvel for the franchise question one when it was Tekken.
↘️Bonus HARD Questions! 1. Who was the first to win two games in one year? Which year? 2. What was the first year 3D games were added to Evo? 3. What was Toyota promoting when it became Evo’s first prominent sponsor? 4. What was the first year there were more new games (released on or after 2009) than retro/classic games? 5. Name one player who had two consecutive titles in any game. EX. What was the first year there was no Marvel game at Evo?
Sorry to be the smash nerd in here but in melee the Z axis does exist and actually plays a role it’s why Yoshi’s Dash Grab is so terrible. Off of a technicality melee is a 3d fighter lol
“Most Evo championships” shouldn’t be a record across the board because placing first in one game with 300 people against placing first in another game with 5000 people isn’t the same thing.
How many questions did you get right? Be honest
Only got 1 answer right 😔
I think I got 3.
4
I got 6 surprisingly
Got 5
This is when you know I’m old when I got most of these answers
My man.. you got all of them right 😂
🐐
We're still impressed
legendary...historian
Steve is old too but he has dementia,, I mean memory gap lol
You a tru OG
“How well do you know EVO history?”
Justin : “brother I AM THE HISTORY”
I fuckin lost it when Justin was just like "SUP, its me"
That was golden! Hahaha 😂
"Of course I know him, he's me"
Justin Wong this entire interview: Do not cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written.
😂😂
Asking Justin about the history of EVO is like asking Napoleon about the history of the Napoleonic Wars.
Justin's "sup..." To who has the most Evo titles. Perfect.
Justin Wong flexing. Tasty Steve in jeopardy.
Tasty doesn't care too much about the history, but for damn sure he cares is the hype. He's "in the moment" kind of guy. Love him.
making Justin remember
every single time
Who cooks the best pancakes?
Everybody: Tokido?!😂😂😂
Justin Wong vs Evo History was literally a 10-0 matchup. 🤣 GGs to everyone this was fun.
Justin WON Battle by The Bay, though. Of course he'd remember.
That Perfect Legend question was actually insane. He completely slipped my mind up until that question. Forgot he won EVOs actually
The hint was too big. Got it instantly off of it. DOA and MK and they're showing MK9? Definitely PL.
were so lucky to have justin as a content creator now, hes the perfect historian considering hes lived through the fgc
6:59 what blows my mind is that, even though Daigo got 2nd place in 3rd strike that year, he still got 1st place in SF2 AND GuiltyGear XX at the same time.
Wong is the GOAT at MvC2 and EVO history...whaaaaat!?
NRS games or not, Sonicfox is a legend. Thats crazy 6 evos across 5 different games.
Making Steve crack when you said "10, 9..."
Evolution 2004, it’s madness, it’s absolutely madness
Steve is sweating out here, poor guy
tasty sweat hahahah
I can't believe I got half of these right. I only got into FGC in 2018 with smash (melee) and didn't really get into actual FGC until this past year with SF6 and Tekken 8. Missed 7 (by one year).
Thumbnail: No one got this question correct.
Justin got everything correct.
The only question that T Steve know the answer is:
- What do make before a match start?
- Some Noooooiiiseeee!!!!
I thought it was Ryan Hart or Tokido but when Steban said DOA or MK it instantly clicked with me... Perfect Legend. I miss him btw. Such a fantastic player. Also, asking Justin who's has the most EVO wins was hilarious lmao.
I mean he's still around lol you're talking like pl died. He was in my pool at cb this year for sf6
@@BrokenTekk True but I wish I could see him more on the top competition. I always enjoyed his play in MK games. People move on from high level it's okay, It's just a fan thing. Imagine Prime PL against the Chilean twins, Ninjakilla and Sonic fox? That'd be neat.
Justin saying sup when he was the answer is insane aura lmao
I'm actually on tilt about the winner of the Evo 37 year. My brain remembered it as happening in 2005 and I remembered Nuki winning that year. I remembered the winner in 05 right, but because I was wrong about which year 37 was it made me second guess which year was which winner
Get shmixed
The question on who won 3S on the year of the parry is so brutal lmao
I only missed the 2D/3D question. It helped that my first Evo was 2005.
a real old head - respect dawg
I looked for EVO history and this was the first thing that showed up
I don't know anything about evo history but like gaming, it's a miracle it exists at all
also the interviewer is wearing an awesome shirt
if you ever do this again - and/or are reading this comment - put people's names/socials everytime they are on screen
Asking Justin what year was moment 37 is nasty work
Let’s see how I do.

6/10 not too bad.
In what year Moment #37 was?
Justin having PTSD (Parrying That Sure is Daigo)
That Whats up! by justin LMAO
That second half of questions humbled me
Only got the hotels wrong, I would’ve gotten the 2D/3D wrong if he didn’t give the hint for DOA, but the moment he said that I knew the answer
Justin Wong 🤝 Sebastian Vettel
Knowing the history and BEING the history
Jwong been there since the inception lmao
These questions are amazing.
4:30 Didn't Fuudo win Street Fighter 4 and Virtua Fighter 5?
Justin slayed the interview
Aye, i got most of these too. Im proud to say i knew that Perfect Legend answer immediately because of his beef with Sonicfox, he would brag about that endlessly lol
Not only is Justin the EVO GOAT, he knows every question regarding evo tossed at him.
Justin - still the goat
Steve - time to start looking for another job
The 'sup, Jwong is just the goat
I actually got most of them correct except for 3D and 2D, who won 3rd strike in 04, when Evo moved to Vegas, and the Vegas hotels.
That should count as another EVO title for Justin lmao
inaugural event!
Justin is a historian. Protect that guy at all cost!
Got them all but I would've missed the 2D/3D question if it wasn't for the hint. My initial thought was Ryan Hart.
i never heard of evo until arslan ash came into seen in 2019
hope he do well in this evo and win his 1st evo in t8.
So much fun to watch this. Everyone was really good with the replies even if most was wrong. Wonder why Justin Wong knew everything? Hmmm…
“I’m no even gonna guess”
.0343 seconds later: 2003?
lmao Justin with the "sup"
JWong is the EVO history like man has seen and experienced everything
People didn't even know Battle By the Bay? Damn, it's even alliterative and everything.
Edit: They didn't know it's Tekken!?
tasty steve won in my heart
i missed the 2d/3d one, franchise beside sf, evo moved to vegas one, and hotel one, i didn't exactly know the answer to player with most diverse wins but it was an easy guess, i have read the evo articles on wikipedia multiple times very interesting, also on evo 2004 another interesting thing happened which gave birth to collusion rule.
I never even been to an EVO and for some reason I knew all of these except mario kart and the hotels lol
Nah, however you rate Justin Wong, he is still underrated. What a historian that guy!
Justin Wong is the FGC encyclopedia confirmed.
Justin is a legend but your quote for the last question is wrong, at the end he didn’t get a perfect record. He said marvel for the franchise question one when it was Tekken.
"It's either 2002 or 2003.. I'm going to go with ... 2004"
↘️Bonus HARD Questions!
1. Who was the first to win two games in one year? Which year?
2. What was the first year 3D games were added to Evo?
3. What was Toyota promoting when it became Evo’s first prominent sponsor?
4. What was the first year there were more new games (released on or after 2009) than retro/classic games?
5. Name one player who had two consecutive titles in any game.
EX. What was the first year there was no Marvel game at Evo?
Justin is a beast.
LET'S GO JUSTIIIIIIIIN
5:10 so many facial expressions 😂
Jwong died a little inside when evo moment 37 was mentioned 😂
Justin is really the goat fr fr
If you're counting BBB mvc has had more appearances than tekken, or tired if you count the online event.
I definitely would have got that 😂
justin da goat knows his history . he's been there since pretty much day 1
justin just too goated
2:45 what was that eye roll for 😭😭
Sorry to be the smash nerd in here but in melee the Z axis does exist and actually plays a role it’s why Yoshi’s Dash Grab is so terrible. Off of a technicality melee is a 3d fighter lol
Justin is evo, it's his second home
Justin wong is literally Seb Vettel of Evo lol...
“Most Evo championships” shouldn’t be a record across the board because placing first in one game with 300 people against placing first in another game with 5000 people isn’t the same thing.
J Wong da North American FGC Goat
Man Justin was made most of the Evo history..
i just didnt know the answer to the venues lmao all I know is mandalay bay
Damn, I only got the last two wrong.
Let’s go Justin 🎉🎉🎉
"Who is the hardest character to play in a fighting game"
Tokido
i love tasty steve and Jwong, those dudes are beasts!
damn people need to know where they came from !
justin lol what a BOSS
Joel Perez 16 years ago 1984
Low key need to suspend Steve's FGC member card for that performance.
Q: How Well Do You Know Evo History?
A : Justin
Cooking Mama 👩🍳👩🍳👩🍳
good questions
Let's see what hotels have hosted EVO? 🤔🤔🤔
Justin Wong?
Tokido?
Daigo? 🤷🏿♂️
Is that right?
It's weird no one went for the obvious answer to the second question: Smash
:^)
Justin wasn't quite enough of a content creator ... the content creator thing to do was miss the hotels question by 1
how many hotel had evo been hosted, what do you mean it changes maaaaan
Melee has a z-axis that moves interact on, so technically Jebailey was right.
FR2!!
"SUP....ME". K.O!
I missed 2 lol
Smash fans know there has clearly been more than one non-fighting game in the main lineup ;)
If nobody's gonna be checking if I'm telling the truth or not then YAAYY I GOT ALL OF THEM RIGHT!!
thats why jwong the goat
