Thank you so much to everyone that tuned in to Event #4 of the Splatoon 3 North American League!! Blessed to see stacked sets that either went the distance or very well could have.

The position of setting other casters up to share their knowledge while I can do some play-by-play on the side is fun!

The year is 20XX. Mankind has perfected counterpick rules after cycling through countless formats that includes input from both teams, fans, and the overlords.

Game 2 is still TC Art Academy.
